| Summary: | Many wastewater treatment plants in developing countries are either dilapidated or not functioning properly. A key reason
for this underperformance is the difficulty to secure even a relatively minimal budget for operation and maintenance from
those managing the plants. As a result, it has become appropriate to effectively capture the economic value of treated
wastewater by generating income that can be used to help finance the operation and maintenance of wastewater treatment
facilities. The production of fish in treated wastewater is an example of such an income-generating activity. |
