The individual farms at the rural areas often face problems with domestic sewage collection and treatment. In many cases building of sewerage systems and central wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) brings too high costs, due to high distances from one farm to another and terrain configuration. Treatment wetlands for individual farms can solve this problem. In the article, an overview of individual treatment wetlands in Europe and Poland is presented. On this basis, the conception of domestic sewage and sewage sludge management for an individual farm was worked out within the project "Innovative solutions for wastewater management in rural areas". The concept was to prepare a ready-to implement solution of the problem of sewage and sludge management of a local community at the rural area by treatment wetlands serving individual households. The proposal of an innovative sanitary system is basing on an idea of a closed cycle of matter in the environment. The nutrient substances: N, P, K compounds present in sewage and sludge should be recycled to the soil. Three configurations of hydrophite beds will be tested in order for selection of the optimal solution. The implementation of the project has already started at the catchment area of river Borucinka at the municipality Stezyca, Pommerania Region, Poland.
