There
is a very new awareness of the necessity of wastewater treatment in the Black
Sea Region of Turkey. In addition to being a structure that includes many
residential and industrial areas from east to west, which is the Black Sea
coast, fisheries and marine ecosystem are used. On the other hand, until very
recently, only Samsun and Ordu centers have advanced biological treatment and Zonguldak
secondary treatment wastewater treatment, other provinces and districts
discharge their wastewater into the sea with deep sea discharge systems. There
is another danger that awaits the Black Sea region, where such a development is
taking place, both deaths and economic losses increase as a result of floods
and disasters due to the interaction of both environmental deformation and
climate change. In addition, environmental damage will increase with the
fragility of infrastructure and treatment systems. Wastewater treatment systems
provide a critical service to society and vulnerability to the effects of
climate change. puts the health and sanitation of many communities at risk. The
impacts of climate change on wastewater systems are numerous and can have a
wide variety of consequences over varying time periods.
In
this study, first of all, the direct climate-related effects on the wastewater
system element (including networked wastewater systems, in-plant wastewater
systems and treatment plants) in all cities in the Black Sea Region were
examined. Floods and odor problems of the wastewater network, deterioration of
water quality and damage to infrastructure due to uncontrolled discharges will
be priority problems. More research is needed on specific processes to develop
plans for effective adaptation to climate change. Our study is to
systematically determine the main effects of climate change on wastewater
systems and to determine the direct or indirect social, cultural, environmental
and economic consequences. After these studies, infrastructure is generally the
development of decision-making principles for local governments. How effluent
characteristics will change under climate change will depend on the type and
design of WWTP processes. Depending on how these can cope with changes in inlet
water quality (e.g., changing water temperature, water use/conservation
measures and nutrient enrichment (eutrophication) and eventual reduction in the
receiving environment's capacity to assimilate pollutant loads, it will have
potentially adverse effects on the receiving environment.
