O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação da área experimental da FCA/UNESP (Botucatu-SP) durante 12 meses, em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado num fatorial 4 x 3, seguidos de quatro repetições totalizando 48 parcelas. As espécies de grama utilizadas foram: Santo Agostinho (Stenotaphrum secandatum (Walt.) Kuntze); Bermudas (Cynodum dactylon); Esmeralda (Zoysia japônica) e São Carlos (Axnopus sp). E os tratamentos foram: T1- Irrigação com reuso; T2- Irrigação com reuso + adubação química e T3- Irrigação com água de abastecimento da Sabesp + adubação química (Testemunha). Os dados foram submetidos à comparação de médias por Tukey com 5 % de probabilidade. Verificou-se que o nitrogênio presente na água de reuso foi suficiente para o bom desenvolvimento das espécies de grama, porém a sua utilização proporcionou uma maior lixiviação de potássio. UNITERMOS: reuso de água, irrigação, gramados, água residuária, esgoto.  PIEDADE, A.

VEGETATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF FOUR GRASS SPECIES IRRIGATED WITH EFFLUENT OF DOMESTIC  2 ABSTRACT This research aimed to compare the development of four grasses species irrigated by dripping with an effluent from a domestic wastewater station treatment in a small rural community, and supply water from Sabesp. For this purpose, an experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the FCA/UNESP (Botucatu - SP) for 12 months in a completely randomized 4 x 3 factorial design, with four replications, totalizing 48 parcels. Grass species used in this experiment were: Santo Agostinho (Stenotaphrum secandatum (Walt.) Kuntze); Bermudas (Cynodum dactylon); Esmeralda (Zoysia japônica) and São Carlos (Axnopus sp). The treatments were: T1- Irrigation with re-use; T2- Irrigation with re-use + chemical fertilization and T3- Irrigation with supply water from Sabesp + chemical fertilization (control). Data were submitted to comparison of means by Tukey’s test at 5 %. The results showed that nitrogen in the wastewater was enough for the good development of the grass species. However, its use caused higher potassium loss. KEYWORDS: re-use water, effluent, irrigation, grass, sludge.

Domestic water supply and wastewater management are essential indicators of urban quality of life globally, and yet remain major environmental issues in Nigeria. The rapid growth in population has resulted in a higher rate of wastewater generation in Nigerian cities. However, many city plans are unable to cope with these issues appropriately. As a result, the poor management of wastewater is an ever-present problem with its attendant risks to public health and environmental safety. Therefore, this study attempts to analyse the control of urban development and management of domestic wastewater in Suleja, Nigeria. The study critically examines the current urban planning systems and presents an overview of selected technologies adopted for the decentralised treatment and disposal of wastewater in emerging nations. To this end, a documented and dissertation based analysis technique was employed in this study. Firstly, the paper begins by providing a methodical framework for comparative examination of the centralised and decentralised systems. The legal setting and policy framework, present city plan, and wastewater management are also explained. The study finds that loose development control and organic growth of residential development have a strong influence on wastewater management in the community

The purpose of this research is to find out the influence of economic, social and availability of information variable on the healthy life behavior of the people in Suruh Sub-district, Semarang Regency. The primary data source is collected by distributing the questionnaires to and by interviewing the people of Suruh Sub-district, Semarang Regency as the research respondents with the research analytical instrument of Probit binary responses regression. The availability of domestic wastewater disposal facilities is the dependent variable, while the household expenditure (economic variable), healthy life motivation (social variable) and maintenance of domestic wastewater disposal system (healthy life behavior) are the independent variables. The results show that the healthy life motivation and maintenance of domestic wastewater disposal system variables have positive and significant influence on the availability of domestic wastewater disposal facilities with ? = 5% and the household expenditure variable has positive and significant influence with ? = 10%. In general, it shows that the economic variable and the household expenditure determine the availability of domestic wastewater disposal facilities in Suruh Sub-district, Semarang Regency as the higher the individuals income, the higher their allocation to the household expenditure, including to the domestic wastewater management.

The regulations said that all domestic wastewater first should be treated before being discharged into public drainages. Therefore, IMERI building, as a research and education building located in the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia, applies a wastewater management system using activated sludge technology combined with microorganism biofilters. This system is expected to treat the waste generated inside the building. It reprocesses become recycled water and partially discharged into city drainages based on the quality standard and maintenance applied during the operation. By collecting and evaluating primary and secondary data from system planning and routine maintenance results, we assess all performance of the WWTP system. Moreover, this system runs well and has all indicators of effluent categorizes safe. However, routine maintenance and the treatment process with chlorination and tighter monitoring should be taken seriously to keep the whole system's performance.

The degradation of water quality has become a major problem today. In Indonesia, the decline in water quality is caused by domestic wastewater which is a non-point source. In an effort to reduce the occurrence of environmental degradation due to domestic wastewater, it is necessary to give an idea and convince the public and the relevant parties of the importance of domestic wastewater management. Efforts are made by informing the pattern of distribution of domestic wastewater in a region and the impact of its distribution for its control and management. The research method uses a momentary sampling technique in accordance with SNI 6989.59:2008. The location of the water sampling is determined purposively. Sampling was conducted in two periods; the dry season in September and the rainy season in January. The observed parameters included BOD5 and E.coli. Determination of the distribution of domestic wastewater uses GIS. The distribution of domestic wastewater is determined based on pollution levels expressed as IP. The results show that pollution levels in Sawojajar and Sumbersari were lightly polluted with average IPs of 4.09 and 4.02 (dry season). While Kedungkandang is in the good category, IP = 0.32 (dry season).

Abstract Thailand has adopted the concept of eco-tourism as a protocol to protect environmental resources. One of the key factors in enabling the achievement of this goal is the improvement of the quality of effluent from those homestays and resorts which still lack efficient on-site wastewater treatment. This research utilized case studies of subsurface flow constructed wetlands (SFCWs), planted mainly with the Indian shot (Canna indica L.), which were designed to treat wastewaters at three resorts located in Amphawa District, Samut Songkram Province in central Thailand. The results showed that the treated effluent was of sufficient quality to meet the building effluent standards Type C, which require the concentrations of biological oxygen demand (BOD), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) and suspended solids (SS) to be less than 40, 40 and 50 mg/L, respectively. In addition, the first-order kinetic constants for the design and operation of SFCWs were determined. For treating wastewater containing organic substances, with no prior pre-treatment, the first-order kinetic constant of 0.24 1/d can be applied to predict effluent quality. For treating other types of domestic wastewater, a first-order kinetic constant in the range 0.40–0.45 1/d can be used when sizing and operating SFCWs. This research highlights the great potential of SFCWs as a sustainable wastewater management technology.
