Urban wastewater contains N and P emitted by households and industries that are connected to a sewerage system, and households with sanitation but without a sewerage connection.
Urban wastewater contains N and P emitted by households and industries that are connected to a sewerage system, and households with sanitation but without a sewerage connection.


N discharges to surface water (''E<sub>sw</sub><sup>N</sup>'' in kg per person per year) are calculated as follows ([[Van Drecht et al., 2009]]; [[Morée et al., 2013]]):

where   is human N emissions (kg per person per year), D is the proportion of the total population connected to public sewerage systems (no dimension), R N is the overall removal of N through wastewater treatment (no dimension).  
where
: ''E<sub>hum</sub><sup>N</sup>'' is human N emissions (kg per person per year),  
: D is the proportion of the total population connected to public sewerage systems (no dimension),  
: R N is the overall removal of N through wastewater treatment (no dimension).  
Total P emissions to surface water are calculated in a similar way, but also include estimates of P emissions to surface water resulting from the use of P-based dishwasher and laundry detergents. Nutrient removal by wastewater treatment R is based on the relative contribution of four classes of treatment (none, primary, secondary and tertiary treatment). D is calculated from the proportion of households with improved sanitation. D and R by treatment class are scenario variables.
