    The document compares three types of wastewater treatment ponds: aerobic ponds, facultative ponds, and anaerobic ponds. Aerobic ponds use aeration to maintain oxygen throughout, reducing emissions but increasing costs. Facultative ponds can support both aerobic and anaerobic processes depending on oxygen levels, making them moderately effective and easy to operate. Anaerobic ponds rely entirely on anaerobic decomposition, having lower energy and costs but poorer pollutant removal than aerobic processes.
