Abstract

Grey Water Footprint is an indicator of anthropogenic pollution load into the inland water. The indicator is used for quantification of water needed for pollutant dilution to such an extent that the quality of the ambient water remains above agreed water quality standards of pollution discharged from point sources in the Czech Republic. Grey Water Footprint was calculated for 6 382 point pollution sources, recorded in the national register of wastewater discharges, from period 2009–2018. The domestic, industry and agriculture sectors were analyzed separately in the assessment. The total Grey Water Footprint of point sources of pollution varied between 1.90 × 1010 and 2.46 × 1010 m3/year. The Grey Water Footprint of domestic pollution represented about ¾ of the total Grey Water Footprint. The Grey Water Footprint of industrial pollution represented about ¼ of the total Grey Water Footprint. The Grey Water Footprint of agricultural point sources of pollution can be neglected on the national level in the Czech Republic. In most cases, the Grey Water Footprint is determined by ammonium nitrogen (NH4-N).

点源污染的灰水足迹:捷克共和国研究

灰水足迹是反映内陆水域人为污染负荷的指标。该指标用于将污染物稀释所需的水量化，以便使环境水的质量保持在捷克共和国点源排放污染的商定水质标准之上。该研究计算了2009年至2018年期间国家废水排放登记簿中记录的6382个点源的灰水足迹。在评价中，分别分析了国内、工业和农业部门。点源灰水足迹总量变化在1.90 ~ 2.46 × 1010 m3/年之间。生活污染的灰水足迹约占灰水足迹总量的3 / 4。工业污染的灰水足迹约占总灰水足迹的四分之一。在捷克共和国，农业点源污染的灰水足迹在国家层面上可以忽略不计。在大多数情况下，灰水足迹由铵态氮(NH4-N)决定。

期刊介绍： Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering (JUEE) provides a forum for original papers and for the exchange of information and views on significant developments in urban and environmental engineering worldwide. The scope of the journal includes: (a) Water Resources and Waste Management [...] (b) Constructions and Environment[...] (c) Urban Design[...] (d) Transportation Engineering[...] The Editors welcome original papers, scientific notes and discussions, in English, in those and related topics. All papers submitted to the Journal are peer reviewed by an international panel of Associate Editors and other experts. Authors are encouraged to suggest potential referees with their submission. Authors will have to confirm that the work, or any part of it, has not been published before and is not presently being considered for publication elsewhere.
