'''EN 12255 - Wastewater treatment plants''' refers to a set of [[European Committee for Standardization|European standards]] which specify the general requirements for structures and equipment that relate to [[Wastewater treatment|wastewater treatment plants]] for a total population of more than 50 PT (population total). This standard, however, does not include the design of a treatment processes itself.<ref>SIPE (Standards Information Portal for Europe) {{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20150618001528/http://www.sipe-rtd.info/directive/wastewater-treatment-plants-part-1-general-construction-principles EN 12255-1:2002 - Wastewater treatment plants - Part 1: General construction principles]}}.
