    Abstract Combined sewer system in the inner Hanoi city is one of the challenges for water drainage work when heavy rains happen, and making waste water treatment costly. Main waste sources of Hanoi urban area consist of: Domestic waste, hospital waste, and industrial waste. Hanoi has been planning some centralized waste water treatment plant which solves a number of current issues in temporally period, but long-term and efficient measures are needed for sustainable development. “Waste water separation and treatment at sources” would bring economic efficiency, and sustainable development for human health and environment. Some solutions have been studied and will be discussed more detail in this report. The proposal includes: Establish medical waste water treatment system meeting National Technical Regulation in hospitals; Build up waste water collection and treatment system in residental areas; Set up waste water treatment system meeting requirements of National Technical Regulation in the industrial zones before discharging to combined sewer system.
