SUMMARY:Sub irrigation system supplies wastewater from beer brewery
DESCRIPTION:Sub irrigation system supplies wastewater from beer brewery\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			BoerBierWater - F2Agri\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nWaste water source\nThe treated residual water from beer brewery Bavaria is used as the water source for sub-irrigation. Measurements of the effluent indicated high concentrations of sodium\, phosphate and chromium. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nDistribution System\nThe water is delivered by a controlled level sub irrigation system. This system is composed of subsurface drains connected to each other by a collector drain. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nFarming system\nThe pilot study involves installing a drainage pipe system on a parcel of grassland. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nWaste water treatment description\nNutrient removal : none\nPesticide removal : none\nDisinfection : none\nSuspended solids removal : none\nOther :  The quality of the water was measured in front of the project and it was found to be sufficiënt for the irrigation of grassland. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nCapacity\nThe F2Agri project aims to put 1.5 hm³ effluent from the beer brewery company Bavaria at the disposal of farmers. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nExtent of the agricultural beneficiaries\nThe initial set up involves one farm with a grassland parcel of 8.5 ha. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nCosts\nThe cost of the drainage system are 2\,500 €/ha. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nType of agreement\nA cooperation is set up to discuss the construction\, maintenance\, management and the distribution of the water. This cooperation was named BoerBierWater. The cooperation consists of local farmers\, brewery Bavaria\, ZLTO\, the municipality of laarbeek\, Waterschap Aa & Maas\, Agrifirm and the local banc Rabobank. \nAn animated movie can be found through this link (Dutch only) \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nScientific results\nScientific Reports: \nBartholomeus\, R.\, van Loon\, A.\, & van Huijgevoort\, M. (2018). Hergebruik van industrieel restwater voor de watervoorziening van de landbouw. Retrieved from www.kwrwater.nl \nThe results shows that sub irrigation raises the depth of the water table so the moisture provision for the crop is improved. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nAdditional information
