Reuse: Agriculture
Agronomic and water quality considerations Water use for agricultural irrigation is the largest component of water use in most countries and is more than 70% of human water use in drier countries. Use of recycled water for irrigation requires consideration of soil types, groundwater levels, soil and water chemistry, nutrient loads, limits on chemicals, the salt tolerance of crops, the ...

Significance to human health of carbamazepine detected in fruits and vegetables irrigated with recycled water
The relevance and significance of the findings of chemicals of emerging concern at nanogram concentrations in recycled water is critically important for the consumers of these crops. The relevance and significance of these chemicals at these concentrations is placed in perspective in terms of the number of years of consumption necessary to accrue one acceptable daily intake every day, over a ...

Using ozonation to eliminate the inhibition of soluble algal products (SAP) of Scenedesmus sp. LX1 on its growth in microalgal cultivation for biomass/bioenergy production
Water recycling is an effective way to reduce water consumption in the industrialization of microalgae-based biomass/bioenergy production. The soluble algal products (SAP) which inhibit the microalgae growth will accumulate in the recycled water. Therefore, the ozone oxidation treatment of SAP produced by Scenedesmus sp. LX1 was studied to reduce the inhibition of SAP. The experimental ...

Seawater Aquarium Case Study
Challenge The AquaDom aquarium is the biggest freestanding cylindrical aquarium in the world. It is home to 1500 fish and corals of 97 different species. All its 1000 m³ of water are recycled every hour in order to maintain the appropriate water conditions for sustaining life. Due to the recirculation of the water and the ineffectiveness of their phosphate removal filter, the level of ...

Seasonal ammonia losses from spray-irrigation with secondary-treated recycled water
This work examines ammonia volatilization associated with agricultural irrigation employing recycled water. Effluent from a secondary wastewater treatment plant was applied using a center pivot irrigation system on a 12 ha agricultural site in Palmdale, California. Irrigation water was captured in shallow pans and ammonia concentrations were quantified in four seasonal events. The average ammonia ...

Olive Processing
Problem: The aerated ponds were producing a foul odor & the chloride content of the aquifer was increasing to a level endangering the water quality. Solution: A Hydrocal CAF system is installed to treat the pit water only. This stream, which aligns the olives to be pitted, is highly contaminated with oil, grease, and ruptured olive tissue. The separate treatment of this stream alleviates ...

Effect of recycled water applied by surface and subsurface irrigation on the growth, photosynthetic indices and nutrient content of young olive trees in central Iran
Water shortage has encouraged the quest for alternative sources of water for food production and agricultural development. Recycled water (RW) is one of the most available water resources with great potential for use in farm irrigation. This experiment was carried out to investigate the use of RW as the irrigation source and its application method, subsurface leaky irrigation (SLI) system or ...

Void Fill for Three Planter Boxes
Three metal garden beds were designed with two opposed sides in matching profiles of waves; two of which were placed beside the entrance of the building while the third was placed in the foyer. The beds were to be filled with soil in the shape of the wave profile and covered with grass; in a large number of places the soil would be at least 1m deep. ...

Recirculatory Aquaculture System (RAS)
Introduction: Recirculation Aquaculture System (RAS) is a generation in which water is recycled and reused after filtration and elimination of suspended rely and metabolites. The approach is used for highdensity lifestyle of diverse species of fish utilising minimal land place and water. It is an in depth approach (better densities and greater rigorous management) than different aquaculture ...

New Mexico Business Weekly Passing biogas: R-Qubed project converts cow manure to methane
Some locals sarcastically joke that the stretch of dairy farms along Interstate 10 south of Las Cruces should be re-named “Buenos Aires” (fresh air). It’s a reference to a less than aromatic sector of I-10 in southern New Mexico, not a reflection on the capital of Argentina. But that soon might change, thanks to a US$72 million plan by R-Qubed Energy Inc. of El Paso to build ...

Plastic-Puglia: Watering your crops while saving resources
In summer, keeping a vegetable garden well watered means keeping an open tap like you haven’t seen since your last kegger in college. When the little rainfall in winter can make it seem like summer year-round, our finite resource such as water becomes ever more precious, in spite of the few rainstorms that did pass through in winter. Since the last few years, world has become ...

Reusing date seed residues as a low cost adsorbent for slaughterhouse wastewater purification
Date seeds were found to be as effective adsorbents as activated carbon for the removal of organics from slaughterhouse wastewater. Experiments were successfully employed to attain the maximum amount of COD adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity were 53 and 60 mg/g for date seeds and activated carbon, respectively. In view of the stringent water quality requirements, adsorption using date ...
