This document covers the system's components needed for the use of treated wastewater (TWW) for irrigation. Emphasis is placed on irrigation methods, mainly drip irrigation, as this method represents an efficient method of irrigation and water saving, while reducing the pollution of the crops. Despite the fact that water quality and filtration of treated wastewater (herein TWW) using drip irrigation are critical, open irrigation systems are more popular and are frequently used for irrigation with TWW and therefore are covered in this document. This document covers issues related to the main components of a TWW irrigation project, including the following: — pumping stations; — storage reservoirs; — treatment facilities (for irrigation purposes); — filtration and disinfection; — distribution pipeline networks; — water application devices: irrigation system components and treatment. This document is not intended to be used for certification purposes.

This document contains guidelines for the development and the execution of projects intending to use treated wastewater (TWW) for irrigation and considers the parameters of climate and soil. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on all elements of a project using TWW for unrestricted and restricted irrigation, including design, materials, construction, and performance, when used for the following: — irrigation of agricultural crops; — irrigation of public and private gardens and landscape areas, including parks, sport fields, golf courses, cemeteries, etc. These guidelines are intended to provide assistance for the benefit of users of TWW for irrigation. The guidelines relate to the widespread and common ranges of water quality rather than exceptional or unique ones and are intended for the use of professionals, such as irrigation companies (designers and operators), agricultural extension officers or advisors, water companies (designers and operators), local authorities and water utilities. The use of these guidelines by users might require additional specifications. None of the parts of this document are intended to be used for certification purposes. These guidelines suggest the parameters of TWW quality. These parameters include the following: — agronomic parameters: nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium), salinity factors (total salt content, chloride, boron, and sodium concentration) and heavy metals' concentration; — pathogen presence. Each of these parameters can have possible impacts on the crops, soil, and public health. The guidelines discuss the possibility of preventing the contaminants' addition during wastewater production and the ability to remove them during the course of treatment. Contaminants of emerging concern (such as pharmaceuticals and personal care product residuals) are outside the scope of this document since up to day, there is no evidence of adverse effects on human health or environment via irrigation with TWW or via the consumption of crops irrigated with TWW. The project should be designed in accordance with the sanitary quality of the TWW in order to avoid disease transmission by the pathogens in the water. The use of these guidelines is encouraged to ensure consistency within any organization engaged in the use of treated wastewater. These guidelines provide the basis for a healthy, hydrological, environmental and agronomic conscious design, operation, monitoring, and maintenance of an irrigation system using treated wastewater.

This document specifies guidelines for technical aspects, tools and good practices for the management of assets of wastewater treatment plants, sludge treatment facilities, pumping stations, and retention and detention facilities in the wastewater system to maintain the value of existing assets. NOTE 1 For simplicity in reading this document, reference to wastewater treatment plants includes all the asset types described above. For further guidance on wastewater networks see ISO 24516-3. NOTE 2 For simplicity of interpretation of wastewater system assets, the management of pumping stations and retention and detention facilities in the network, excluded from ISO 24516-3, is addressed in this document irrespective of where these assets are sited in the wastewater system. This document is focused on the assets in wastewater systems typically owned or operated by wastewater utilities that are expected to meet users' needs and expectations over longer, sometimes multi-generational, periods. This document includes examples of good practice approaches on the strategic, tactical and operational levels. This document is applicable to all types and sizes of organizations and/or utilities operating wastewater systems. NOTE 3 Depending on the size and structure of an organization, the utility can decide to what extent it applies the guidance in this document. In any case, the philosophy of this document remains applicable even to small and medium utilities. NOTE 4 This includes all different roles/functions for the management of assets within a utility (e.g. asset owner/responsible body, asset manager/operator, service provider/operator).

This document provides guidelines for water quality grade classification to help users determine the suitability and quality of the reclaimed water for safe non-potable reuse applications, based on the level of exposure. The intention is to enable the water quality grade to be identified at the point of use.

This document gives guidelines on performance evaluation of treatment technologies for water reuse systems. It provides typical parameters of water quality and treatment efficiency that are associated with the performances of treatment technologies. It also includes a comparison of measured and target values, and provides treatment technology functional requirements and non-functional requirements.

This document provides water reuse safety evaluation and public acceptance parameters and methods for users who design, manage, and/or oversee the non-potable water reuse schemes or activities in urban areas from the viewpoint of water quality. The document can be used in various stages of non-potable water reuse projects such as design, operation, and post assessment. The document is applicable to non-potable water reuse in urban areas with reclaimed water from municipal wastewater sources. The wastewater sources can also include a limited contribution of industrial wastewater input. While some communities are turning to potable reuse to meet water supply needs, discussion of safety evaluation of potable reuse is outside the scope of this document.
