Abstract
⺠We employ a life cycle perspective to estimate the wastewater treatment systems. ⺠Six typical A/A/O alternatives are evaluated from an environmental profile standpoint. ⺠Sophisticated treatments are at the cost of higher resource consumption and GHG emissions. ⺠The only positive trade-off with improved treatments is observed when using bioenergy recovery. ⺠Optimal alternatives are identified from different positive perspectives.
