SUMMARY:Novel Methodology for the Promotion of treated wastewater reuse for Mediterranean crops improvement
DESCRIPTION:Novel Methodology for the Promotion of treated wastewater reuse for Mediterranean crops improvement\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			MeProWare\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nWaste water source\nThe demo-site includes the municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) of Acquaviva Delle Fonti. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nDistribution System\nThe WWTP effluents are delivered to a distribution system recently built by the municipality to serve a local cooperative of farmers (Cooperativa “La Molignana”). However\, before connecting the plant to the distribution system some extra works were carried out to protect the irrigation network from possible malfunctioning/floods of the wastewater treatment plant. In particular\, sluice gates were connected with turbidity probes placed at the outlet of the plant\, in order to deviate the effluent to the normal discharge in case of lowered effluent quality. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nFarming system\n2 to 3 ha of permanent crops are irrigated with drip irrigation. The permanent crops are olive trees and vineyards. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nWaste water treatment description\nNutrient removal : none\nPesticide removal : none\nDisinfection : UV light is used.\nSuspended solids removal : Disc filters provide the pretreatment for the UV disinfection unit\nOther \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nCapacity\nThe demo-site includes the municipal wastewater treatment plant of Acquaviva Delle Fonti (30.000 PE). For the research experiment\, a fraction of 150 - 200m3/h  of reclaimed water is retrieved for agriculture. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nExtent of the agricultural beneficiaries\nTwo test field were a vineyard (Site A) and an olive grove (Site B). \nSite A  is placed relatively close to the municipal WWTP of Acquaviva Delle Fonti. The vine cultivar is the Red Globe\, a table grape variety\, and the training method adopted is the “tendone”\, an high vine training typical in Apulia region. The sampling subarea is 1.6 ha large (0.95 ha irrigated with tertiary treated effluent\, 0.75 ha with well water). \nSite B is 4 km far from the WWTP. The olive cultivar is the Ogliarola\, an oil variety. The sampling subarea chosen for the experimental activity is large 1.1 ha. \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nCosts\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nType of agreement\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nScientific results\nScientific Reports and peer-reviewed papers \n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			 \nAdditional information\nThe overall quality of the tertiary effluent is very high both in terms of microbiological and chemical-physical characteristics. Compared with the well water\, the tertiary treated effluent has higher content of organic substances and nutrients useful for plants growth.
