| avløpsslam | waste water sludge (The removed materials resulting from physical, biological and chemical treatment of waste water) | |
| avløpsstatistikk | waste water statistics (No definition needed) | |
| avløpssystem | sewerage system (System of pipes, usually underground, for carrying waste water and human waste away from houses and other buildings, to a place where they can be safely get rid of) | |
| avløpssystem for regnvann | rain water sewer system (Channels for clearing away rain water) | |
| avløpsutslipp | waste water discharge (The flow of treated effluent from any wastewater treatment process) | |
| avløpsvann | waste water (Used water, or water that is not needed, which is permitted to escape, or unavoidably escapes from canals, ditches, reservoirs or other bodies of water, for which the owners of these structures are legally responsible) | |
| avløpsvann fra næringsvirksomhet | wastewater from trade (Liquid or waterborne wastes polluted or fouled by commercial operations) | |
| avløpsvannbehandling | waste water treatment (Any process to which wastewater is subjected which would remove, or otherwise render harmless to human health and the environment, its constituent wastes) | |
| avløpsvannbehandling på stedet | on-site wastewater treatment (A process in which used or spent water is treated at the point of origin or where it was produced, by using a septic tank or some other system to remove or reduce the impact of constituent wastes on human health and the environment) | |
| avløpsvannrensing | waste water purification (Processing of waste water for reuse) | |
| avlsmetode | breeding technique (Term referring to the systems employed in animal rearing (extensive and intensive)) | |
| avmineralisering av vann | water demineralisation (The removal of minerals from water by chemical, ion-exchange, or distillation procedures) | |
| avregulering | deregulation (The removal or relaxation of government control over the economic activities of some commercial entity, industry or economic sector) | |
| avsalting | desalination (Removal of salt, as from water or soil) | |

| avsalting av vann | water desalination (Any mechanical procedure or process where some or all of the salt is removed from water) | |
| avsaltingsanlegg | desalination plant (1. Plants for the extraction of fresh water from saltwater by the removal of salts, usually by distilling. 2. Parts of the world with severe water shortages are looking to desalination plants to solve their problems. Desalination of water is still nearly four times more expensive than obtaining water from conventional sources. However technology is improving and costs are likely to decrease slightly in the future. There is now more interest in building distillation plants beside electric installations so that the waste heat from power generation can be used to drive the desalination process) | |
| avsatt partikulært materiale | deposited particulate matter | |
| avsetning | deposition (The process by which polluting material is precipitated from the atmosphere and accumulates in ecosystems) |
