Eaux usées
Optimiser et relever de nouveaux défis
L'infrastructure des eaux usées en Suisse a une valeur de 125 milliards de francs suisses. Neuf cents stations d’épuration assainissent les eaux usées du pays 24 heures sur 24. Une partie du travail de l'Eawag consiste à étudier comment optimiser en permanence cette réussite et l’adapter aux conditions particulières dans d'autres pays, ainsi qu’à rechercher comment relever de nouveaux défis.
