Hospital waste poses enormous environmental problems in industrialized and underdeveloped countries, especially in Mediterranean countries like Lebanon. Any discharge of genotoxic waste or hazardous component to the environment will have catastrophic ecological consequences. Thus, the selection of an appropriate hospital wastewater treatment technology is crucial and aims to remove problematic particles or compounds rather than diluting them with residential wastewater streams and re-emit them into the environment.Since the Syrian refugee crisis in 2011 and after its exacerbation in 2015, Lebanon has exploited its natural resources more and the Lebanese hospitals have produced more hazardous waste, which has harmful environmental and social impacts. To overcome this serious problem, radical solutions should be urgently implemented. SWaTH project can be a real and effective solution.With the joint help of the EU partners, the following will be completed:1) Needs analysis on the methods currently used in Lebanon for the treatment of hospital wastewater2) Evaluate the compliance level of these methods with European and international standards based on the benchmark analysis of the most efficient wastewater treatment techniques currently used in Europe.3) Address a recommendation letter to the concerned Ministries and Syndicates4) Long-term internships for Lebanese students.5) Training and workshops for Lebanese Faculty members.6) Purchase and establish a pioneering wastewater treatment facility in five of the best Lebanese Universities.7) Carry out social and environmental life cycle analyses.The Consortium will comprise five European higher education institutions (UGR, KTH, ULR, UdL, and UOULU), one small and medium sized European enterprise (PLAS), and five Lebanese higher education institutions (UOB, LU, LAU, USEK, and NDU).
