This research demonstrates that the use of decentralized systems approach to wastewater treatment has had more success and there is a need to make wastewater treatment people-centric and effective through the “waste to resource” approach. There is a need for capacity building of community institutions and participation by rural bodies in order to become aware, scale up and improves these innovative approaches in the future at rural centers. Decentralized systems that can be operated and managed by users are much more likely to reach the poor in the short and medium term than the centralized piped systems and treatment works. Providing reliable and affordable wastewater treatment in rural areas is a challenge in many parts of the world. Decentralized concepts provide treatment facilities on a comparable small scale, mostly for domestic wastewater from private households or communal institutions. As they are not restricted to merely managing individual user systems, they can close the gap between on-site systems and the conventional, centralized system. Since smaller distance between the place of origin and waste water treatment facility, there is no need for an elaborate collection system. This ultimately reduces the demand for material, technical equipment, sewerage maintenance and capital investment.
