Evaluation of Pilot Scale Domestic Wastewater Reuse System in Terms of Irrigation and Industrial Process Waters in Turkey

It is now inevitable to reuse the wastewater in urban areas terms of climate change and circular economy. The aim this study evaluate secondary treatment as irrigation water and/or industrial process by pilot-scale ultrafiltration (UF) reverse osmosis (RO) units. conductivity, pH, organic matter, heavy metals, micropollutants, coliform bacteria sodium hazard assessments were analysedduring operation. An average flux 60.02 ± 16 l/m2.h was obtained UF system 12.30 2.93 RO system. Both permeates compared with national global irrigational quality standards. has been determined that effluent suitable for irrigation, while permeate can be used processes pre-treatment. total operation maintenance (O&M) costs two pilot plants calculated at 0.252 US $/m3.
