Assessment of potential risks associated with chemicals in wastewater used for irrigation in arid and semiarid zones: A review
Abstract
Irrigation with raw, partially and treated wastewater is a widespread practice in many arid and semi-arid zones. The importance of wastewater for agriculture has increasingly been recognised not only as a valuable water resource but also for its nutrient value. However, inappropriate management of irrigation with wastewater can pose substantial risks to public health and the surrounding environment as a result of its microbial and toxic components. In this review, we summarise recent research and provide a broad overview of the potential risks associated with the chemicals in wastewater used for irrigation including their environmental, and health impacts, factors that may affect the fate of these chemicals, and available mitigation methods and management options to reduce their impacts. A primary aim of this review is to construct a generalised ranking of the risks from the chemical constituents of wastewater used for irrigation in arid and semi-arid zones.

“The reasons for this 609 are numerous and include the fact that these pollutants have a wide range of 610 chemical properties and their successful removal even in advanced treatment varies 611 significantly (Bolong et al., 2009, Yan et al., 2010, Luo et al., 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
