Abstract

Marmaris is a tourist city on the South-west Coast of Turkey. A sewage disposal project for Marmaris with an estimated population of 39,000 (excluding the temporary tourist population) for the year 2012, was completed in 1982. The sewage disposal system consisted of wastewater collection, treatment and deep sea discharge. The length of discharge pipe was determined as 520 m and a diffuser was placed 20 m below the sea level, so that the total coliform concentration at the protection zone boundary could be less than 1000/100 ml.
