description | The main aim of the present study was to characterize the
quality of the sewage leaving the Arad Municipal Wastewater Treatment
Plant and highlight the emergence and importance of water reclamation,
recycling, and reuse as vital components in integrated aquatic resources
management for further reuse. The sewer quality assessment was performed
for the period 2018 - 2021. For this purpose, the Global Pollution Index
(𝐼ீ∗) was used to determine the degree of pollution of the wastewater
influent and effluent from the Arad treatment plant during the mentioned
period. These results on the quality of incoming and outgoing sewerage can
contribute to developing a management plan for protecting and properly
managing water resources. |
