Reusing sewage water for crop irrigation becomes necessary due to freshwater scarcity, and groundwater depletion. Although the suitability of using treated remains a topic argument among government authorities policymakers. In light this, this review article summarizes present global situation techniques recycling application in agriculture. This paper highlights environmental, health, economic impacts wastewater as water, along with advantages disadvantages are carefully considered. The main objective study is scenario being used irrigate agricultural crops, hazards associated soil fertility, production, public factors. compiled information on best treatment disinfection practices. Eventually, database laws rules governing use or many countries throughout world was created. As an environmental impact, effects bodies, quality soil, microbial communities growth plants have been summarized. For impact significant emphasis given exposure pathogens heavy metals both farmers consumers. potential risks utilizing human consumption also summarised. Focusing summarizing involves financial investment benefits farmers.

Freshwater supply for hydrogen production: An underestimated challenge

International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 78, P. 202 - 217

Published: June 25, 2024

This paper presents a thorough critical literature review aimed at understanding the challenges associated with freshwater supply rapidly growing global hydrogen economies. The has been prompted by fact that production projected for 2030 will create least an additional demand of 2.1 billion cubic meters freshwater, which needs to be addressed support sustainable development emerging key solutions explored this study include seawater and wastewater treatment methods large-scale generation, along newly introduced technique direct seawater-fed electrolysis. Prior research indicates desalination technologies, including reverse osmosis membrane distillation, also offer promising avenues costs comparable other techniques. Additionally, low-temperature such as distillation could play significant role in electrolysis, underscoring importance exploring waste recovery opportunities within system (e.g., fuel cell heat recovery). identifies gaps need overcome enhance sustainability techno-economic viability energy systems.

Benefits and limitations of recycled water systems in the building sector: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 22(2), P. 785 - 814

Published: Jan. 8, 2024

Abstract Building construction requires important amounts of freshwater, thus depleting the already stressed natural water resources. This issue could be addressed by using recycled in and building systems. However, integrating greywater recycling systems is limited complexity, costs, vulnerability to environmental fluctuations, coordination policymakers, developers, practitioners. Here, we review buildings with focus on case studies successful implementations, policies, treatment buildings, health aspects. Compared conventional tap water, incorporation enhances consistency workability reclaimed concrete 12–14%, it increases viscosity 11% yield stress 25%. We discuss intricacies systems, emphasizing conserving mitigating impact, enhancing economic efficiency. Challenges include quality assurance, dual piping infrastructure, regulatory compliance. Government interventions, including incentives, mandates, subsidy emerge as drivers for widespread adoption. Technological advancements, such membrane filtration advanced oxidation processes, are examined strengths limitations.
