Use of Wastewater in Urban Settings. Final Report

This study investigates the treatment of municipal wastewater and reuse within the city. A variety of uses for the treated wastewater, ranging from toilet flushing and domestic gardening to landscape irrigation were suggested. Two cities were investigated as case studies: Beer Sheva and Maale Edomim. For both cities treatment and reuse schemes were designed, and an economic evaluation performed.The study demonstrates the feasibility of such approach under Israeli conditions.
