Many urban areas are experiencing problems with the capacity of the existing sewer. New solutions are needed to divert the increasing rainfall, and solutions handling rainwater on the surface. Rainwater management must contribute to a sustainable urban structure.

Rainwater Drainage: service requirements and storm Water models, safety for cloudburst, climate adaptation
Weirs, design and calculation, requirements for frequency, requirements for design, self-cleaning and operation, materials
Basins, design and calculation, requirements for frequency requirements for the design, self-cleaning and operation, materials
Pumping stations, design and calculations, management
Sewage Rehabilitation. Planning, strategy and methods
Sewage simulation using digital tools, status, impact assessment for separation, basin storage
