Rapid urbanization and  increase in population cause unforeseen growth in the quantities of wastewater to be treated by existing facilities, on the other hand Increasingly stringent effluent requirements require plants to remove pollutants (especially nutrients) which were not necessarily considered in the original plant design. In many cases, existing treatment systems are either intrinsically unable to meet these two challenges (for example, extensive lagoon systems), or require addition of reactors and other process volumes which call for expensive civil works and space which may not be available in the existing plant location.

Odour Causes: Any place or process in which wastewater is collected, conveyed or treated has the potential to generate and release nuisance odours to the surrounding area. In most instances, the odours associated with collection systems and primary treatment facilities are generated as a result of an anaerobic or `septic` condition. This condition occurs when oxygen transfer to the wastewater is limited such as in a force main. In the anaerobic state, the microbes present in the wastewater have no dissolved oxygen available for respiration. This allows microbes known as `sulphate-reducing bacteria` to thrive.
