Research and technical solutions to reduce anthropogenic load on water bodies using new generation irrigation systems

Abstract

This article explores the treatment and reuse of wastewater. Untreated drainage water can severely impact natural ecosystems. However, with a well-designed scientific approach, it can be transformed into a valuable resource for irrigation. In irrigation systems, various local structures can be employed: removable filter elements at the mouths of drains, filter cassettes or infiltration bio plates in open drains or collectors, and absorbing filter wells at the end sections of the drainage system. For discharging large volumes of drainage water outside the irrigation system, filter dams can be utilized. The article details the structural components of local treatment facilities designed for irrigation systems.
