Wastewater treatment plants – wastewater reuse and preventive measure
Session
Civil Engineering, Infrastructure and Environment
Description
Pollution is an issue that the construction industry cannot ignore. The main types of pollution you need to be aware of are air, water and noise. If you don’t put precautionary measures in place to manage harmful waste, it can directly affect site employees and people living nearby. Wastewater effluent entering the lake poses an immediate health risk to those using it as a drinking-water source. This document also includes performance indicators to satisfy the suitability of the recycled water (treated wastewater) for the required use by considering a number of parameters related to environmental, personnel, physical and operational indicators. The proposed indicators comply in general with the quality standards that are in force in most European countries considering also the 2006 WHO guidelines for safe water reuse. It is crucial to underline that each wastewater treatment plant is unique and the operation of a particular process should always be based on its specific performance and response to the control technique applied. This may require the process to be run outside the typical range of the operating parameters presented in this document.
