Abstract

Egypt's limited water resources and rising water demand are critical to the country's economy and food security. This predicament encouraged the development of non-traditional water resources in order to bridge the gap between supply and demand for water. treated wastewater (TWW) reuse for irrigation is a viable alternative for closing this gap and conserving traditional water resources for residential and urban usage. TWW is a valuable source of nutrients in most wastewater treatment technologies, and it can improve the physicochemical properties of light-textured soils in the long run. Pathogens and the accumulation of harmful chemical substances, on the other hand, are the principal problems that can prevent TWW reuse in agriculture. This study compares Egyptian treated wastewater quality parameters for irrigation with those of other countries throughout the world, focusing on the environmental and health risks associated with the use of treated wastewater. Finally, the acceptable health parameters of treated wastewater for agricultural purposes were reviewed to preserve the health of the Egyptians. © 2022 Published by Faculty of Engineering – Sohag University.

埃及农业废水回用规范的比较研究
埃及有限的水资源和不断增长的用水需求对该国的经济和粮食安全至关重要。这种困境鼓励了非传统水资源的开发,以便弥合水的供需差距。处理过的废水(TWW)用于灌溉是缩小这一差距和保护传统水资源供住宅和城市使用的可行替代方案。在大多数污水处理技术中,TWW是一种宝贵的营养物质来源,从长远来看,TWW可以改善轻质地土壤的理化性质。另一方面,病原体和有害化学物质的积累是阻碍TWW在农业中再利用的主要问题。本研究将埃及用于灌溉的经处理废水质量参数与世界其他国家的水质参数进行了比较,重点关注与使用经处理废水有关的环境和健康风险。最后,审查了用于农业目的的经处理废水的可接受健康参数,以保护埃及人的健康。©2022由Sohag大学工程学院出版。DOI: 10.21608 / SEJ.2022.115242.1006
