This compilation provides guidelines that facilitate the successful planning and operation of water reuse projects. Offering the information, analysis and proven experience for agricultural and landscape irrigation, it bridges the gap between fundamental science and relatively uncharted areas of economic, institutional and liability issues. It delivers a synthesis of information recently emerging in both science and in the practice of irrigation with reclaimed water. The book compiles guidelines, recommendations and codes of best practices from around the world for all types of recycled water uses, and it examines recent concerns about adverse effects on plants, groundwater and public health.
This text investigates the technical, economic, and institutional frameworks required to implement sustainable water reuse systems for agricultural and landscape irrigation. The authors, Bernard Fried and Joseph Sherma, synthesize global best practices and scientific research to address the complexities of reclaimed water application. By bridging the gap between fundamental science and practical implementation, the book provides a comprehensive guide for navigating the regulatory, health, and environmental challenges inherent in water recycling projects.
