A Feasibility Study of Constructed Wetlands As Alternative to Sewerage System on Tourism – Based Island: A Case Study of Kampung Salang, Tioman Island

The most widespread environmental problem affecting almost all island countries is the safe disposal of liquid domestic wastes, particularly human waste and sewage disposal. Few countries have adequate waste collection and treatment facilities even in the most developed urban areas, and those that e...
