Improvement of domestic wastewater quality by subsurface flow constructed wetlands

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of these investigations indicate that the organic load, fecal coliform populations and the N and P concentrations of the septic water decreased considerably by passing through the constructed wetlands.
Journal Article

Water from (waste)water--the dependable water resource.

TL;DR: Fundamental concepts of water reuse are discussed including definitions, historical developments, the role of water recycling in the hydrologic cycle, categories ofWater reuse, water quality criteria and regulatory requirements, and technological innovations for the safe use of reclaimed water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of electrochemical treatment of industrial paint wastewater with response surface methodology.

TL;DR: The electrochemical method could be a strong alterative to conventional physicochemical methods for the treatment of water-based paint wastewater in the presence of NaCl electrolyte with carbon electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of phosphorus from agricultural wastewaters using adsorption media prepared from acid mine drainage sludge

TL;DR: The results indicate that acidMine drainage sludges -- hitherto thought of as undesirable wastes -- can be used to remove phosphorus from wastewater, thus offsetting a portion of acid mine drainage treatment costs while at the same time improving water quality in sensitive watersheds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using recycled water for non-potable, urban uses: a review with particular reference to toilet flushing

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared water quality standards for reclaimed water, the volumes of water required for toilet flushing and the qualities of greywater and domestic sewage that have previously been used for reuse for reuse and showed that the interest in water reuse is growing steadily, not only in acknowledged water deficient areas, but also in countries which have not historically appeared to have a water supply problem.
