Comparison of Mashhad Aolang Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent with Wells Water Quality for Irrigation
Nowadays treated effluent reuse is very important due to the water shortage problem. The aim of this study was comparison the quality of Mashhad Aolang treatment effluent plant with wells water on that area for irrigation purpose and their effects on wheat production. In this study a total number of...

The aim of this study was comparison the quality of Mashhad Aolang treatment effluent plant with wells water on that area for irrigation purpose and their effects on wheat production. In this study a total number of 24 well water and 24 treated Wastewater samples were taken, weekly within the period of six months.

In comparison, irrigated with treated wastewater was more productive than well water on wheat production. In conclusion, replacing treated wastewater with continuous monitoring with well water for irrigation purposes is recommended.http://www.wwjournal.ir/article_2471_2b20f6928f891a2b2fca7b3764fb2a2f.pdfWastewater EffluentWell WaterIrrigationAolang Treatment PlantMashhad |
