Abstract
Approximately one million people out of Norway’s 4 million inhabitants live in rural districts which makes it very difficult to connect to a municipal sewer. The solution of their wastewater disposal problem must be based on on-site wastewater disposal systems. In spite of the great number of Norwegians who need on-site disposal systems, there is still a long way to go before a good practical and permanent on-site disposal system is devised. To date very little work has been done on this important subject, and consequently there is a great need to improve the solutions presently in use in Norway.
