Abstract:
Reclaimed water has been safely and successfully used for more than 40 years in Florida and California. Reclaimed water in these states is regulated with restrictions more stringent than World Health Organization guidelines. In the United States, Florida is currently the largest producer and California is the second largest producer of reclaimed water. Reclaimed water is more highly tested than other sources of irrigation water, and the safety of this water has been demonstrated in these and other states. Very high application rates of reclaimed water to citrus on well-drained Florida sands increased tree growth and fruit production. Although reclaimed water contains some nutrient elements, there is usually insufficient macronutrient content to meet plant nutritional requirements. Most reclaimed waters do not have high salinity levels although they are slightly more salty than the potable waters from which they originated. With an adequate leaching fraction, salts in reclaimed water can be handled with appropriate irrigation management. Use of reclaimed water has steadily increased in Florida since 1992, but other entities besides agricultural irrigation are now competing for its use. Public acceptance of reclaimed water has also increased, and crops grown with reclaimed water in Florida and California have been marketed without a negative public reaction. Recent issues of food safety have caused some to question reclaimed water, but there is no evidence of food safety problems with its use. Although reclaimed water in Florida was initially promoted as a way to improve surface water quality, it has now become an important alternate source of water to help meet water shortages and urban demand. In California, reclaimed water has become a necessary part of statewide water management.

Abstract:
Tianjin, due to its severe shortage and inefficient use of water resource, is now facing many problems such as land substance, pollutions of wastewater irrigation etc., which will restrict its sustainable development of social economy. As a newly, useful, and potential unconventional water resource, reclaimed water can be used broadly to improve the unsatisfied situation of water utilization in Tianjin. In this paper, based on an analysis of the status of present reclaimed water use project and associated plans of future reclaimed water utilization, the authors gave a detailed discuss on the existed problem of reclaimed water use, and then put forward some relative suggestions and recommendations about the sustainable management of reclaimed water utilization in Tianjin, such as management mechanism, reclaimed water price and economic stimulating mechanism, constructions of infrastructure, supporting of science and technology, laws and policies, and supervision system and public participation.

Abstract:
Florida is one of the larger producers of reclaimed water in the U.S., and use of this water has increased greatly in the past ten years. The objective of this study is to compare changes in reclaimed water use by different entities over the past several years. From 1986 to 2002, total reuse treatment capacity and flow in Florida increased by 221% and 183%, respectively. In the 1980s, reclaimed water was considered to be an urban disposal problem, and cities encouraged use of this water by giving it away for no charge. Because it was free, agricultural irrigation became the largest user of reclaimed water in the mid-1990s and is still one of the larger users. From 1992 to 2002, overall agricultural land area irrigated with reclaimed water increased by 77%. Land area of edible crops irrigated with reclaimed water increased during that period but remained relatively constant around 6070 ha after 1996. Irrigation of other crops increased to 9800 ha. Golf course irrigation increased by 212% to 20,476 ha while residential irrigation increased around 8147% to 33,373 ha during this period. Total flow to ground water recharge and industrial uses increased by 125% and 424%, respectively. While agricultural irrigation is still a large user of this water, other uses such as golf course, residential, groundwater recharge, and industrial are becoming more important. Some cities are no longer willing to provide this water to agriculture for no charge as competition from other entities increases. Agriculture may have to pay for the water, use less water, or develop other water sources.

Abstract:
A descriptive survey was conducted of container plant growers using reclaimed water (processed sewage) for irrigation of nursery crops and growers whose businesses were located in areas where reclaimed water was available but not used for irrigation. Surveys were completed during site visits except when participants wanted to complete the survey at a later time. Nurseries using reclaimed water produced trees, shrubs, perennials, bedding plants, foliage plants, and potted flowering plants. Average area outdoors or under shade irrigated with overhead sprinklers was 3.5 ha (8.6 A) and 10,777 m2 (116,000 ft2) for greenhouses. Participants responded that reclaimed water quality (67%) and quantity (50%) were consistent over time. All reclaimed water users were satisfied with both quality and quantity of reclaimed water. Most growers (83%) not using reclaimed water were using well water as the primary source of water. Seventy-one percent of non-reclaimed users responded that expense of connection to reclaimed water was a limitation, while 57% indicated that unknown water quality and health or safety concerns were limitations. Results from this survey indicated acceptance of reclaimed water among active users and the need for education about reclaimed water for non-reclaimed users.

Abstract:
This paper presents a successful water reclamation and reuse project in the San Francisco Bay area. The project, which includes a water reclamation facility and a separate distribution system, is operated by a wastewater utility and reclaims approximately 4% of its dry-weather flow. Project history, its design and implementation are further discussed. Planning, and especially demand analysis, was critical for project development. Earlier attempts of water reuse were not successful because reclaimed water quality did not match the requirements of potential large industrial customers. Current customers are a mix of public, commercial and residential users who apply the reclaimed water solely for landscape irrigation. In addition, a large fraction of the reclaimed water is used internally in the main wastewater treatment plant. Early connection of largest customers, innovative collaboration with a neighboring reclamation project and cooperation of the local water supplier were very important for project success. Distribution of internal process water consumes most energy. The second major energy use is for the treatment of reclaimed water while distribution of reclaimed water to external customers requires least energy.

Abstract:
In Japan, wastewater treatment plants generate 1.09 × 1010 m3 of effluent in a year. 8.5 × 107 m3 of it is reused. Several criteria have been proposed for reclaimed water quality. However there is not national standards yet. In this paper, reclaimed water use in Japan is briefly described. Existing quality criteria are also presented. In the context of reclaimed water use, Tokyo is one of the cities which have promoted the reuse of treated effluent. Especially, stream restoration project and area-wide water recycling projects are epoch-making projects. In this paper, area-wide water recycling project in Shinjuku district which is one of sub-centers in Tokyo is described. In this project, reclaimed water is used for toilet flushing in 19 high-rise buildings. Construction cost, funding and user charges are also given.

Abstract:
The study evaluated the safety of reclaimed water using health risk assessment and biotoxicity tests. The reclaimed water was produced from reverse osmosis and used in industrial and miscellaneous purposes. The health risk assessment was conducted based on the concentrations of detectable pollutants in reclaimed water in a hypothetical scenario. The estimated carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks are lower than the generally accepted level. Biotoxicity evaluation included three genotoxicity tests, a chronic toxicity test using medaka fishes, and a subchronic toxicity test using mice. The reclaimed water is not genetically toxic, and does not cause significant chronic effects on these model organisms. These results confirm the safety of using reclaimed water from municipal wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract:
It is well established that converting wastewater, a point-source of pollution, into reclaimed water makes management of nutrients more difficult. Not all service lines measure the volume of reclaimed water used by a customer, and frequently there are no restrictions on the amount of reclaimed water that is used. Nutrients applied in excess have the potential to runoff or leach through soils and contaminate surface and groundwater resources. This research attempted to determine if corresponding surface water quality monitoring sites in reclaimed service areas reflect elevated total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorous (TP) concentrations. The Joe’s Creek Watershed in Pinellas County, FL is a highly urbanized watershed with one wastewater plant providing tertiary treatment for reclaimed water (Pinellas County Utilities Dept.) and another wastewater plant providing secondary treatment (City of St. Petersburg Water Resources Dept.). This research reviewed concentrations of TN and TP in the reclaimed water effluent for each wastewater treatment plant and at four tributary sites in the Joe’s Creek Watershed. One tributary site, Bonn Creek, is in the tertiary treated service area, another tributary site, Miles Creek, is in the secondary treated service area, and a third tributary, Joe’s Creek, provides two control sites which are both outside of reclaimed service areas. Based on the results of comparisons and statistical analyses of the 6-year period, the TN and TP concentrations of reclaimed water from the City of St. Pete Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) far exceed those of the Pinellas County WWTP. The TN concentration in the reclaimed effluent from St. Pete was nine times higher than that of Pinellas County. The TP concentration was almost five times higher at St. Pete than Pinellas County. The sites within reclaimed service areas had higher concentrations of TN and TP when compared to the control sites for the same period. Miles Creek recorded the highest mean concentrations of TN and TP of the four monitoring sites. Bonn Creek recorded the second highest mean concentrations of TN and TP. Rainfall data were reviewed and results show that several monitoring dates for Miles Creek and Bonn Creek had elevated TN and TP concentrations which coincided with periods of rainfall deficit. These and other results of this research indicate a need to reconsider minimum wastewater treatment levels in urban environments in an effort to reduce nutrient pollution, as well as a need to expand watering restrictions and enforcement, and expand education of consumers about reclaimed water.

Abstract:
Reclaimed water use is an essential element in the integrated water resources managment. The wastewater treatment and reuse are activities that increase the aquatic capital without depleting the natural resource, whose lack, both in terms of quality and quantity, is currently a serious worldwide problem. Reclaimed water can be used in different applications depending on its quality, thus reducing the potable water demand, and allowing for hidric natural sources regeneration. Furthermore, the regenerated effluent is kept out of surface waters and groundwater preventing their quality deterioration, and consequently reducing environmental degradation. Despite large advances in wastewater treatment, waterborne diseases still pose a major threat to public health. Consequently, the use of this type of resource usually requires more stringent monitoring procedures than when "good quality" water (such as groundwater and drinking water) is used. Therefore, improving water microorganism detection techniques is an essential step in the health risk management. This dissertation work was performed along two main intertwined lines of research: (1) the study of quantitative PCR (qPCR) methods as fast and efficient tools for microbial water quality monitoring; and ( 2) the study of microbiological colonization associated to reclaimed water use at pilot-scale practices. The developed work contributes to reduce persistent uncertainty about the potential adverse effects that may encompass the use of reclaimed water on human health by demonstrating that the utilization of this resource, under suitable and controlled conditions, does not entail greater microbiological contamination when compared to well water. It also provides more light on the use of qPCR and viability qPCR techniques as tools for control and monitoring of water quality in order to address effective microbial pollution prevention. Quantitative PCR is essential for detection of specific pathogens and/or pathogens which can be present in low numbers. The fact that this technique also provide information on the viability and infectivity of microorganisms makes it a very powerful tool for rapid and reliable monitoring of water quality, as well as, it allows for quick response time for decision making. Therefore, it could be an useful tool for the implementation of microbial quality control programs. Additionally, the viability qPCR approach proposed in this dissertation provides a realistic estimate of the number of live cells in complex matrices like wastewater samples, particularly when protocol optimization will be difficult to be performed. As established Dr. Lucas Van Vuuren, "water should be judged by its quality, not its history" and viability qPCR is a good tool to achieve this goal.
La reutilización de agua regenerada es un elemento clave en la gestión integral de los recursos hídricos actualmente escasos, tanto en términos de calidad como de cantidad, en algunas regiones del mundo. El tratamiento del agua residual y su posterior reutilización son actividades que permiten aumentar el capital agua sin agotar el recurso natural. Siempre que su calidad lo permita, el agua regenerada puede utilizarse en diferentes aplicaciones, reduciendo de este modo la demanda de agua potable y otorgando un mayor tiempo de regeneración a las fuentes naturales. Además, el efluente se mantiene fuera de las corrientes acuíferas superficiales y subterráneas evitando que la calidad de las mismas se vea deteriorada, lo que disminuye la degradación del medio ambiente. A pesar de los grandes avances alcanzados en el tratamiento de aguas residuales, las enfermedades transmitidas por el agua siguen representando una amenaza mundial importante para la salud pública. En consecuencia, para garantizar su calidad microbiológica a lo largo del tiempo, el uso de este tipo de recurso suele requerir un monitoreo o control de calidad más estricto que el de otros tipos considerados como de buena calidad (como por ejemplo el agua de pozo y el agua potable). La mejora de las técnicas de detección de microorganismos en agua es esencial para optimizar el tratamiento y utilización del agua regenerada, y poder así fomentar su uso en sectores claves como la agricultura y la industria. En esta tesis se trabajó en dos líneas principales, pero entrelazadas, de investigación: (1) el estudio de la técnica de PCR en tiempo real (qPCR) como herramienta rápida y eficaz para el control y monitoreo de la calidad microbiológica del agua, y (2) el estudio de la colonización microbiológica asociada con el uso de agua regenerada en prácticas a escala piloto. El trabajo desarrollado contribuye a reducir la incertidumbre persistente en relación con los efectos adversos potenciales que puede tener el uso de agua regenerada en la salud humana mediante la demostración que el uso de agua regenerada, en condiciones adecuadas y controladas, no implica un mayor riesgo de contaminación microbiológica en comparación con el agua de pozo. Este trabajo también aporta más luz sobre el uso de las técnicas de qPCR y qPCR de viabilidad como herramientas de control y monitorización de las aguas para la prevención eficaz de la contaminación microbiológica. La qPCR resulta esencial para la detección de patógenos específicos y/o que pueden estar presentes en concentraciones bajas. El que además pueda aportar información sobre la viabilidad e infectividad de los microorganismos la convierte en una herramienta muy potente que permite un monitoreo rápido y fiable de la calidad del agua, y contribuye a una mejor toma de decisiones en los casos en que sea necesario, por lo que podría ser una herramienta útil para la implementación de programas de control de calidad microbiológica. Adicionalmente, la modificación propuesta en esta tesis para la qPCR de viabilidad permite obtener una estimación más real del número de células vivas en matrices complejas como las aguas residuales, sobre todo cuando la optimización del protocolo es difícil de realizar. Como sostiene el Dr. Lucas Van Vuuren, "el agua debe ser juzgada por su calidad, y no por su historia" y la qPCR de viabilidad constituye una buena herramienta para lograr este cometido.

Abstract:
With the ever increasing demand for potable water due to the continued increase in population coupled with the threat of California’s current drought, water will remain a limited resource that must be managed responsibly. In order to strategically plan and manage water use in the most beneficial manner, water providers must take into account all sources of water, including recycled water and their applications. Recycled water as a source for supplementing high quality potable water is a sustainable strategy that will prove to be an essential tactic in any water management plan. The purpose of this project is to emphasize the importance of supplementing potable water in the City of Banning by discussing the characteristics of California’s current water drought; evaluating the City of Banning’s available water supplies and current water demand; discussing the Soil Aquifer Treatment process; summarizing California’s regulations related to recycled water; and discussing the quality of recycled water available at NP-1, an unequipped City owned water well, by examining water quality testing on water samples taken from NP-1. Analysis of water available at NP-1 showed that with additional disinfection, the water pumped from NP-1 could meet the recycled water requirements in order to be used on a local golf course. The local golf course is currently being irrigated with potable water, which would be supplemented with the recycled water from NP-1.

Abstract:
Rapid population growth increases the competing water demand for agriculture and municipalities. This situation urges the necessity of using integrated water management to increase water supply and find possible symbiotic urban-agriculture relationships. Many studies have been done to simulate the integrated use of surface water, groundwater and reclaimed water for different water users. However, few studies use simulation/optimization (S-O) models for water resources to explicitly represent detailed interactions between the different resources as well as the relationship between users and resources. This research study uses an S-O model to show the symbiotic relationship between urban and agricultural water use. This model fully links the nonlinear flows of groundwater from multiple aquifer layers, surface waters, reclaimed water, and delayed returns of non-consumed water for municipal and agricultural uses. Using specific aquifer and stream properties, and related assumptions, the optimization result shows there is a symbiotic relationship between urban and agricultural water use. The unconsumed water returns to the hydrologic system, for both surface water and groundwater increase agricultural net return by 8.6 %, and urban population by 0.4%. This particular problem uses ModelMuse to create simulation input files, and SOMOS-Map to create the optimization input files to run the simulation/optimization problem in SOMOS. In addition to presenting an S-O model, we also provide practical information on how to create the model. The results of the study and the explanation on how to apply the method may be helpful information for engineers and water managers.

Abstract:
In response to water supply depletion challenges, countries such as Australia, the United States, and Namibia have implemented technologies that treat wastewater up to the standards permissible to use for irrigation, toilet flushing, and even drinking water. However, many of these countries have been unable to successfully implement some of their ambitious reclaimed water reuse projects due to negative public perceptions of recycling wastewater. The focus of this study was to understand which factors in risk perception theory are the most influential in shaping community perceptions of reclaimed water reuse as a future source of drinking water within Hillsborough County. The research design was comprised of a mixed methodology approach (quantitative and qualitative analyses). The methods for assessing how each of the five main factors played a role in shaping risk perception in each of the communities was comprised of three main analyses, including spatial, statistical (through multiple regression modelling in R), and personal interview data (an HOA leader, one key informant, and a focus group). Residents (n=417) from various neighborhoods were interviewed through surveys which will evaluate factors found in literature that have been shown to have the most effect in shaping risk perception theory.

Abstract:
Abstract The Pinellas County Resource Recovery Facility (PCRRF) combusts 3,150 tons per day of municipal solid waste from Pinellas County, Florida and produces 75 megawatts (MW) of electrical generation capacity. The facility requires about 1.7 million gallons per day (MGD) of makeup water for the cooling tower and up to 200 thousand gallons per day of high-purity water for boiler makeup. The facility currently uses recovered storm water for cooling during summer months (rainy season) and treated municipal wastewater (“reclaimed water”) during the winter months (dry season). The facility currently uses potable water for boiler makeup and is planning to use reclaimed water in the future. Use of reclaimed water for plant water demands is consistent with the philosophy of resource recovery. Reclaimed water, once considered a waste product, is now a valuable resource in water-short areas such as peninsular Florida. Pinellas County’s population of over 1 million people requires water for residential, commercial and industrial purposes. Use of reclaimed water for demands at the PCRRF minimizes the impact on limited freshwater resources and can also build support for the facility among the environmental community. Reclaimed water also has economic benefits. Tampa Bay is experiencing ever-increasing potable water costs. Potable water prices are expected to outpace inflation for the next several years to fund capital improvements associated with the Tampa Bay water program. Reclaimed water is available during the winter season, and the PCRRF has the ability to procure it from two separate sources at competitive rates. During the summer months, the facility depends more on its storm water source. A lime softening pretreatment system processes the storm water prior to its use in the cooling towers. Reclaimed water for boiler makeup will require membrane treatment followed by ion exchange. Microfiltration is being evaluated to remove bacteria-size particles and prevent fouling of the reverse osmosis membranes. Potable water will be used as a backup in the event of availability or quality problems with the reclaimed water supply.

Abstract:
The Pinellas County Resource Recovery Facility (PCRRF) is a 3,150 tons per day mass burn facility located in Pinellas Park, Florida. Due to local water use restrictions and increasing costs for potable water supplies in central Florida, Pinellas County has continuously sought to reduce potable water usage at its facilities. The PCRRF’s boiler makeup water system represented a prime target. Accordingly, a makeup water pre-treatment system using reclaimed water from a sewage treatment plant as its source, has been installed upstream of the existing reverse osmosis membrane and mixed bed polishing demineralizers. The pre-treatment system consists of a micro-filtration module, followed by a reverse osmosis module, which results in an overall configuration of micro-filtration, two stage reverse osmosis, and polishing demineralization. The system has been operational for approximately six months, and is producing excellent quality makeup water for the facility boilers. This paper will describe the pre-treatment process and its operational results to date.

Abstract:
The decline of surface water sources along with periodic droughts has introduced new challenges for the state of California. In order to keep up with the increasing demand for water, the state is heavily relying on imported water from the north to Southern California as well as importing water from the Colorado River. The imported water has a large carbon footprint due to using grid power for water transport. Water reuse (reclaimed) is considered as one of the solutions to reduce the dependency of state on imported water. The research team at Cal Poly Pomona, is developing an off-grid solar-powered greywater treatment system for non-potable use in single households. Greywater is the drained water from bathroom sinks, showers, tubs, and washing machines; not including wastewater from toilets or kitchen sinks. Treating greywater on-site can provide significant water savings, and can reduce the carbon footprint of desalination using solar panels. The developed system is comprised of a three-stage treatment train: micro-filtration, solar-driven reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet disinfection. The end product of the project is capable of reclaiming 90–100 gallons of water per day which is about 60% of residential greywater waste. The system removes large suspended particles (particles of dirt, food, etc.) as well as organic and inorganic dissolved contaminants. It is demonstrated that the system can provide a permeate quality that agrees with recommended guidelines for reclaimed water. The system has a recovery rate of up to 62%.

Abstract:
<p>Concrete is one of the most commonly used construction materials. However, the main drawbacks in the use of concrete are related to the use of cement and subsequently the high percentage of carbon dioxide emissions. The use of cement substitutes is an area where there is a lot of ongoing research. Geopolymer concrete is a concrete in which cement is replaced by waste materials such as Pulverised Fuel Ash (PFA), or Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS). To activate the geopolymerisation, an alkali activator is used. The procedure, which is used for the production of a geopolymer concrete, is normally a two-part procedure: Preparation of the alkali activator one day before the mixing and mixing of the aluminosilicate sources (PFA, GGBS) with the activator. To make the production of geopolymers more user friendly it needs to be converted to one part procedure where water will be added in a readymade mix. In the published literature, there is research on one- part geopolymers, but there are limited studies on the use of demolition waste materials as substitution of PFA and GGBS in this type of materials. With the current study, different sources of raw materials focusing on demolition waste materials such as red bricks and reclaimed concrete, which are commonly used in construction worldwide, will be examined for the production of one- part geopolymer. The major aim of this research proposal is to develop an innovative sustainable one-part cement free geopolymer concrete. The new concrete is a “green” concrete where cement is replaced by waste materials. Construction demolition materials such as red bricks can be used as raw materials in the geopolymer matrix. This project will focus on the selection, characterisation and development of the appropriate processing of these red bricks so as they can be used as raw materials in the geopolymer matrix. Also, the development of one part mix where the new concrete will be ready for use by adding only water in it, is another aim of the proposed project.</p>

Abstract:
The term Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is used to designate a material obtained from the removal of pavement materials. RAP is used across the US in multiple applications, largely on asphalt pavement layers. RAP can be described as a uniform granular non-plastic material, with a very low percentage of fines. It is formed by aggregate coated with a thin layer of asphalt. It is often used mixed with other granular materials. The addition of RAP to aggregates decreases the maximum dry unit weight of the mixture and decreases the optimum water content. It also increases the Resilient Modulus of the blend but decreases permeability. RAP can be used safely, as it does not pose any environmental concerns. The most important disadvantage of RAP is that it displays significant creep. It seems that this is caused by the presence of the asphaltic layer coating the aggregate. Creep increases with pressure and with temperature and decreases with the degree of compaction. Creep can be mitigated by either blending RAP with aggregate or by stabilization with chemical compounds. Fly ash and cement have shown to decrease, albeit not eliminate, the amount of creep. Mechanical stabilizing agents such as geotextiles may also be used.
