A strategy for sustainable livestock husbandry wastewater treatment in China
A strategy for sustainable treatment of the livestock husbandry wastewater is proposed, which is to recycle anaerobic treatment effluent as irrigation water. The existing treatment system was modified by deleting the treatment units after the anaerobic digestion. Chinese cabbage and Korean radish were selected as seeding plants in two sets of field irrigation experiments with various portions of ...

Impact assessment of pre- and post-sown irrigation with Post Methanation distillery Effluent on soil health and crop yield
Field experiments were conducted to assess the optimum dilution of Post Methanation distillery Effluent (PME) to utilise as an organic nutrient source for growing rice and wheat crops. Dilution levels of distillery effluent significantly affected the biomass production as well as grain yield of rice and wheat crops. Levels of organic carbon and NPK were significantly higher in effluent treated ...

Minimizing health risks during secondary effluent application via subsurface drip irrigation
Health risks posed on consumers due to the use of agricultural products irrigated with reclaimed wastewater were assessed by numerical simulation. The analysis is based on defining of an Exposure Model (EM) which takes into account several parameters: (i) the quality of the applied wastewater, (ii) the irrigation method, (iii) the elapsed times between irrigation, harvest, and product ...

Subsurface Drip Irrigation of Omaha Golf Course Fairways with Treated Effluent
ABSTRACT In 1999, in addition to the existing 825 lots developed in the 1970’s, a new 600-lot subdivision was commenced at Omaha Beach. Omaha Beach is a popular recreation beach community north of Auckland. In conjunction with the new residential development the existing 9-hole golf course was expanded to a full 18-hole course. The existing wastewater treatment and disposal infrastructure ...

Corn Irrigation System
From Seed to Harvest: The Role of Corn Irrigation System Today we’re going to dive deep into the world of agriculture, focusing specifically on corn irrigation system. From the moment a corn seed is planted to the time it’s ready for harvest, irrigation plays a vital role. This process ensures that the crops get the right amount of water at the right time, which can significantly ...

Effect of irrigation with secondary treated effluent on essential oil, antioxidant activity, and phenolic compounds in oregano and rosemary
Shortage of water throughout the world dictates utilization of marginal water for irrigation. Treated urban wastewater is a common alternative water source for irrigation in arid and semiarid regions. In this study we aimed to evaluate the effect of irrigation with secondary-treated effluent on plant development, essential oil yield, antioxidant activity and selected antioxidant phenolic ...

EDTA in the environment: with special reference to the dairy industry
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic (EDTA) acid has been used as an additive to caustic agents facilitating removal of Ca, Mg and trace metals in dairy processing plants for many years. Effluents from the dairy industry are either discharged to surface waters or used in land irrigation systems. In particular, the effluents from a large dairy factory discharged to a small stream have the potential to pose ...

Irrigation Solution at Bodega Harbour Golf Course
The Links at Bodega Harbour in Bodega Bay, CA just about an hour north of the Golden Gate Bridge is not only one of California’s most impressive golf courses, but it demonstrates a high degree of conservation by utilizing highly treated effluent from a local wastewater treatment plant for irrigating the grounds. Brian Morris, Superintendent, knows that a course such as this needs the best in ...

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 ...

Irrigating with reclaimed water through permanent subsurface drip irrigation systems
ABSTRACT In Hawaii, reclaimed water has been used in agricultural irrigation and the irrigation of golf courses and other large landscaped areas. However, the Hawaii Department of Health's new "Guidelines for the Treatment and Use of Reclaimed Water" published in November 1993, limits uses of reclaimed water through overhead sprinkler irrigation systems. The subsurface drip irrigation concept ...

Water reuse through subsurface drip irrigation systems
Water reuse in Hawaii has been primarily relegated to agricultural irrigation and irrigation of golf courses and other large landscaped areas. The continuing effort to conserve and preserve potable water resources emphasizes using alternative water sources for irrigation. Agriculture, golf courses, highways, parks, playgrounds and cemeteries are among the heaviest users of irrigation water due to ...

Reuse of Dairy Lagoon Wastewater Through SDI in Forage Crops
Abstract California has become the leading dairy products producing state in the USA. This has resulted in farms commonly milking several thousand cows per day. The care and feeding of the animals has produced large waste streams commonly collected and stored in lagoons. Environmentally safe handling and reuse of the lagooned wastewater is the objective of this study. A system of Subsurface Drip ...
