Neste sentido, análises ecotoxicológicas podem ser empregadas no monitoramento de efluentes com o intuito de minimizar o impacto ambiental e avaliar a eficiência de estações de tratamento quanto à remoção da toxicidade. Este trabalho teve como proposta aliar o póstratamento do efluente de uma lagoa anaeróbia no solo, ao fornecimento de água e nutrientes a uma cultura de eucalipto, analisando os parâmetros dendrométricos para análise do crescimento das plantas. Verificou-se que o efluente anaeróbio, até o momento, tem sido adequado para utilização na irrigação. Contudo, em alguns tratamentos, verificou-se a presença de nitrato, chumbo e zinco em excesso na água percolada. Praticamente todos os tratamentos apresentaram focos de toxicidade aguda, ao menos uma vez, seja em ensaio em Daphnia similis, ou Vibrio fischeri. Até o momento, a contaminação de nitrato não atingiu os poços de monitoramento, apesar de praticamente todos terem mostrado focos de toxicidade aguda ao menos em ensaio com Daphnia similis. Em relação aos parâmetros dendrométricos, observou-se a obtenção de uma boa correlação entre a oferta de efluente e adubação e o crescimento das plantas, e não houve correlação entre a contaminação no solo e a diferença de crescimento nos tratamentos. / Abstract: The domestic wastewater reuse for agricultural purposes should receive special attention regarding pollutants before being released into the soil. In this sense, ecotoxicological assays can be used in effluents monitoring in order to minimize environmental impact and evaluate the efficiency of wastewater treatment on the removal of toxicity. This work has proposed combining the post-treatment of anaerobic effluent, the supply of water and nutrients to a eucalyptus culture and dendrometric analyzing for assessment of plant growth. The anaerobic effluent, until now, has been suitable for use in irrigation. However, in some treatments, there was the presence of nitrate, lead and zinc in excess in water percolation. Almost all treatments showed points of acute toxicity, at least for once, in Daphnia similis assay or Vibrio fischeri. So far, the contamination of nitrate did not reach the monitoring wells, although virtually all have shown outbreaks of acute toxicity at least in Daphnia similis assay. It was observed a good correlation between the provision of sewage and fertilizer and plant growth. There was no correlation between the contamination in the soil and the difference of growth in treatments. / Mestrado / Saneamento e Ambiente / Mestre em Engenharia Civil

The thesis deals with the issue of simulation of treated wastewater irrigation by the HYDRUS 2D software. The first part of the thesis is designed as a theoretical research of academic information and knowledge. It aims at introducing the issue of treated wastewater utilization for the purpose of the irrigation. Furthermore it provides basic theoretical information on numeric simulation of the dissolved materials motion and transport in the soil. The last chapter of the theoretical part describes the calibration of the simulation by the HYDRUS 2D software. The second part of the thesis is devoted to the formation of filtration columns placed in the chosen site of the root zone wastewater plant. Within the filtration columns the automatic irrigation was formed and set off. Measuring of humidity in filtration columns was taking place for 81 days as well as the water sampling after the flow through the soil horizons. On the grounds of the measuring results the calibration of numeric simulation was carried out by the HYDRUS 2D software. The last part of the thesis presents the applications through the extending and alternation of the modelled setting. The main aim of the thesis is to calibrate the model and propose a general solution to advancement at realization of irrigation details when using the treated wastewater for the purpose of irrigation.

The overall goal of this study was to analyse the welfare effect of improved wastewater treatment with the view of making policy recommendations for sustainable urban and peri-urban irrigation agriculture in Kenya. This goal was achieved by investigating three specific objectives. The first objective was to assess the farmers’ awareness of health risks in urban and peri-urban wastewater irrigation. Second objective was to analyse the factors that affect the choice of low-risk adaptations in reuse of untreated wastewater for irrigation. The third objective was to estimate the value that urban and peri-urban farmers who practice wastewater irrigation impute to improvements in specific characteristics of the wastewater input in agriculture. In order to achieve the first objective, an ordered probit model was used to identify the factors that influence farmers’ awareness of health risks in untreated wastewater irrigation. The model was fitted to data collected from a cross-sectional survey of 317 urban farm households in the Kibera informal settlement of Kenya. Results of this study show that gender of household head, household size, education level of household head, farm size, ownership of the farm, membership to farmers’ group, and market access for the fresh produce significantly affect awareness of farmers about health risks in wastewater irrigation. Therefore, there is need for awareness programs to promote public education through regular training and local workshops on wastewater reuse in order to improve the human capital of the urban and peri-urban farmers. To achieve the second objective, the study used a multinomial logit model to analyse the farmers’ choice of low-risk adaptations in untreated wastewater irrigation. A survey of 317 urban and peri-urban farmers was conducted and measures for risk-reduction in wastewater reuse were analysed. The urban and peri-urban farmers were found to have adopted low-risk wastewater irrigation techniques such as cessation of irrigation before harvesting, crop restriction and safer application methods. Results of the study show that adoption of risk-reduction measures is significantly influenced by the following factors: household size, age of the household head, education of household head, access to extension, access to media, access to credit, farmers’ group membership, and risk awareness. Also, marginal analysis of the coefficients confirmed the socio-economic characteristics are key determinants in adoption of low-risk measures in wastewater reuse. The study recommends that policies in support of low-risk urban and peri-urban irrigation agriculture should disaggregate farmers according to their socio-economic and institutional characteristics in order to achieve their intended objectives. To achieve the third objective, the study employed the discrete choice experiment approach to estimate the benefits farmers impute to improvements in attributes of the wastewater irrigation input, whose aim is to reduce the health risks associated with untreated wastewater irrigation. Urban and peri-urban farmers who practice wastewater irrigation drawn from Motoine-Ngong River in Nairobi were randomly selected for the study. A total of 241 farmers completed the presented choice cards for the choice model estimation. A random parameter logit model was used to estimate the individual level willingness to pay for wastewater treatment. The results show that urban and peri-urban farmers are willing to pay significant monthly municipality taxes for treatment of wastewater. Conclusion of this study was that, quality of treated wastewater, quantity of treated wastewater and the riverine ecosystem restoration are significant factors of preference over policy alternative designs in wastewater treatment and reuse. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / gm2014 / Agricultural Economics, Extension and Rural Development / unrestricted

Visando-se a contribuir para o seu sistema de produção, realizaram-se, entre maio de 2008 e janeiro de 2009, dois experimentos em ambiente protegido, na área experimental do Centro de Tecnologia e Recursos Naturais da Unidade Acadêmica de Engenharia Agrícola da UFCG - PB, objetivando-se estudar os efeitos da irrigação com água residuária e águas salinizadas sobre o crescimento e desenvolvimento do pinhão-manso no segundo ciclo de produção, após poda das plantas, além de seus impactos sobre o solo e o estado nutricional da planta, ao término da pesquisa. As plantas foram cultivadas em lisímetros de drenagem (200 L) contendo 230 kg de solo, não-salino, não sódico. Para o Experimento I - uso de água residuária. adotou-se o delineamento estatístico em blocos casualizados em esquema fatorial 5x2+1 com quatro repetições, sendo estudados 5 níveis de reposição de evapotranspiração da cultura - ETc - Nr (Nri = 25; Nr2 = 50; Nr3 = 75; Nr4 =100 e Nrs = 125% da ETc), 2 sistemas de poda ('poda baixa' - plantas podadas a 40 cm de altura e, 'poda alta' - a 80 cm de altura) e 1 tratamento controle (irrigação com água do sistema público de abastecimento e sem restrição hídrica). No Experimento II - uso de águas salinizadas. os tratamentos consistiram de 5 níveis de condutividade elétrica da água de irrigação - CEa (N, = 0,60; N2 = 1,20; N3 = 1,80; N4 = 2,40 e N5 = 3,00 dS m"1 a 25 °C), também no delineamento experimental em blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. Antes do início desse experimento, todas as plantas foram podadas a 80 cm de altura. Em ambos os experimentos, a parcela foi constituída por dois lisímetros, cada um com uma planta e as irrigações foram realizadas em turno de 3 dias. Experimento I - uso de água residuária: o estresse hídrico afetou o crescimento do pinhão-manso sendo a área foliar a variável mais afetada. Em níveis baixos de reposição hídrica, como 25% ETc, correu em atraso de 65 dias no início da floração. A produção de frutos foi mais afetada que o crescimento. As plantas mais produtivas, irrigadas com 125% de evapotranspiração, chegaram a produzir mais de 400g de sementes contendo 36,24% de óleo. A aplicação da água residuária fertilizou o solo. Ao final do experimento, melhorou soma de bases-S, a capacidade de troca catiônica-CTC, a saturação de bases - V e o pH aumentou linearmente com os índices de reposição hídrica. O sódio foi o elemento mais acumulado no limbo foliar (11.160 mg kg"1). As plantas submetidas à poda alta (80 cm) foram mais precoces e mais produtivas. Em geral, as plantas irrigadas com águas residuárias com níveis de reposição > a 50% da ETc, cresceram equivalente ou mais que as da testemunha e foram mais precoces. Em relação ao controle, a fertilidade do solo foi melhorada com a aplicação de água residuária, sendo mais perceptível sobre P, Ca, soma de bases (S), saturação de bases (V%) e capacidade de troca de cátions (CTC), com repercussão no N-foliar, P-foliar e Ca-foliar, mas sem melhoria na qualidade de óleo das sementes. Experimento II - uso de águas salinizadas: inicialmente, a salinidade da água de irrigação estimulou o surgimento de brotações, o número de folhas e a área foliar aos 30 dias após poda, cujos índices aumentaram com o incremento da CEa, aumentando a ETc. A partir de 90 dias, a ETc foi reduzida, linearmente, com o aumento da CEa. Ao final da pesquisa, a altura de plantas, o diâmetro caulinar, o número de folhas e a área foliar do pinhão-manso, foram afetados linearmente, com decréscimos de 2,52, 5,05, 15,45 e 12,17%, respectivamente, por aumento unitário da CEa. O início da floração (105 dias) e o início da frutificação (147 dias) assim como o início da maturação (188 dias) foram afetados, linearmente, pela salinidade da água, com atraso de praticamente duas semanas para cada dS m" . Os frutos do pinhão-manso amadureceram dentro de 9 a 10 dias, independente do nível salino. Os componentes de produção foram afetados com reduções de até 90% nas plantas irrigadas com água de 3,00 dS m . As plantas irrigadas com água de 3,00 dS m"1, até os 240 dias após a poda, produziram entre 1 ou 2 cachos, cujos pesos unitários da semente e do fruto foram reduzidos em em 20,60% e 27,92%, respectivamente, para cada aumento de 1 dS m"1 na CEa. Os íons solúveis se acumularam na solução do solo, segundo a sequência de concentração: Cl" > Na+ > HCO"3 > Ca++ = Mg*4" > K+ (29,05 > 17,39 > 10,00 > 9,40 = 9,22 > 0,36 mmolc L'1), sem tornar o solo salino. Os teores de Ca, S, Zn e Cu estiveram abaixo dos valores adequados, reportados na literatura. O Na foi o elemento mais acumulado no limbo foliar (15.477 mg kg"1). O teor de óleo do pinhão-manso irrigado com água salina é afetado linearmente. Decresceu em cerca de 30% o teor de óleo das plantas irrigadas com água de 3,0 dS m"1 (22,5% de óleo), comparadas às que receberam irrigação com 0,60 dS m"1. / ysic nut {Jatropha curcas L.) it is an oleaginous plant, currently in domestication process and in researched for biodiesel production. Between May 2008 and January 2009, two experiments were installed and carried out in a greenhouse, at the Natural Resources and Technology Center at the Federal University of Campina Grande - PB with the objective of studying the effects of the irrigation with saline water and sewage wastewater on the growth and development of Jatropha plants at second cycle of production after being pruning, beyond to evaluation of its impacts on soil and plant nutritional status in the end of the research. The plants were grown in drainage lysimeters (200 L) containing 230 kg of non-saline and nonsodic soil. In Experiment I (use of wastewater). the statistical design in randomized blocks was adopted, in 5x2 +1 factorial scheme with four replications, five 5 leveis of irrigation (Li) were studied, based on evapotranspiration replacement of the plant (ETc): Li (Lii = 25; LÍ2 = 50; Li3 = 75, = LÍ4 = 100 and Li5 = 125% ETc), 2 pruning heights ('pruning low' - plants pruned at the height of 40 cm, and 'high pruning' - plants pruned at 80 cm) and a control treatment (plants irrigated with water from public supply without hidric restriction). In Experiment II (use of saline water). treatments consisted of five leveis of electrical conductivity of the irrigation water - ECw (0.6; 1.2; 1.8; 2.4 and 3.0 dS m"1, at 25 °C), also arranged in the experimental design of randomized block with four replications. Ali the plants, in beginning, were pruned at 80 cm height. In both experiments, the experimental unit consisted of two lysimeters, each containing one plant. The plants were watered at 3 day intervals. Experiment I (use of wastewater): water stress affected the growth of physic nut plants, and the leaf area was much sensitive. Low leveis of water replacement in the soil, as 25% ETc, causes delay of 65 days in the beginning of flowering. Fruit production was more sensitive than growth. Plants were more productive when irrigated with 125% of evapotranspiration, producing more than 400 g of seeds, on average, with oil content of 36.24%. The application of sewage wastewater improved the soil chemical properties. At 240 days after pruning, the initial concentrations of nutrients were increased by improving the sum of bases-S, cation exchange capacity-CEC and base saturation and, pH increased linearly with the rate of replacement leveis. Sodium was the most accumulated in the leaves (11,160 mg kg" '). Plants subjected to high pruning (80 cm), fructified more and earlier and more productive. n general, plants irrigated with wastewater with replacement leveis more than 50% ETc had growth equivalent or significantly higher than those in control treatment, besides being earlier. Regarding the control, soil fertility was improved with the application of wastewater, with pronounced effect on the P, Ca, sum of bases (S), base saturation and cation exchange capacity - CEC, reflecting on N-leaf, P-leaf and Ca-leaf, but without improving the quality of seed oil. Experiment II (use of saline water): initially, the salinity of irrigation water stimulated the emergence of shoots, the number of leaves and the leaf area at 30 days after pruning, and their indexes increased with the increasing of ECw, leading to higher evapotranspiration. After 90 days of pruning, evapotranspiration rate was reduced linearly with increasing ECw. At 240 days after pruning, the plant height, stem diameter, leaf number and leaf area of physic nut were affected linearly with decreases of 2.52, 5.05, 15.45 and 12.17%, respectively, per unit of ECw increase. The beginning of flowering (105 days), fructification (147 days) and maturation (188 days) were affected, linearly, by salinity with delay of almost two weeks for each ECw increase (dS m"1). The fruits ripened between 9 and 10 days, regardless of salinity levei. The yield components were severely affected with reductions of up to 90% in plants irrigated with ECw equal to 3.00 dS m"1. Plants irrigated with water of 3.00 dS m"1 until 240 days after pruning produced one or two fruit bunches. Individual weights of seed and fruit were significantly affected with reduction of 20.60% and 27.92% for each increase of 1 dS m"1 in irrigation water. Soluble ions were accumulated in the soil solution, in the following sequence of concentration: Cl" > Na+ > HCO"3 > Ca++ = Mg++ > K+ (29.05 > 17.39 > 10.00 > 9.40 = 9.22 > 0.36 mmolc L"1), characterize the soil as nonsaline. Cálcium, sulfur, zinc and copper leveis were lower than the appropriate leveis reported in literature. Sodium was the most accumulated element in the leaf (15,477 mg kg"1). The oil content of physic nut fruits was compromised when the plants were irrigated with saline water up to 0.60 dS m"1; plants irrigated with water of 3.0 dS m"1 (22.5% oil), compared to 0.60 dS m"1 (32.03% oil) had oil content reduced by about 30.55%.

O reúso planejado é vastamente utilizado em todo o mundo, entretanto, no Brasil, mesmo possuindo regiões com escassez hídrica, essa prática ainda é pouco difundida. A berinjela (Solanum melongena L.) é uma hortaliça que possui grande importância no mercado de olerícolas no Brasil e no mundo. Objetivou-se com esta pesquisa avaliar a viabilidade técnica do uso de nitrogênio e fósforo juntamente com a irrigação utilizando efluente doméstico pós-tratado em filtro de areia com fluxo intermitente sob o crescimento, produção de fitomassa e floração de plantas de berinjela cultivada em ambiente protegido na região semiárida paraibana. O experimento foi realizado em ambiente protegido, no Centro de Ciências e Tecnologia Agroalimentar (CCTA/UFCG), Campus de Pombal – PB, e cujos tratamentos resultaram na combinação de dois fatores: quatro doses de adubação nitrogenada (N1 - 3,55; N2 - 6,2; N3 - 8,9; N4 - 11,55 g de N/vaso) e quatro doses de adubação fosfatada (P1 - 15,28; P2 - 26,74; P3 - 38,2; P4 - 49,66 g de P/vaso) correspondendo respectivamente a 40; 70; 100; 130% conforme indicação de adubação para a cultura da berinjela quando cultivada em vasos, irrigada com água residuária pós-tratada em filtro de areia intermitente (AR). Adicionou-se um tratamento com 100% da adubação com N e P e cujas plantas eram irrigadas com água de abastecimento (AA). O delineamento experimental adotado foi o de blocos inteiramente casualizados, com os tratamentos arranjados em esquema fatorial 4 x 4 + 1, com quatro repetições. Conclui-se é possível utilizar água residuária na irrigação de plantas de berinjela, nas condições edafoclimáticas do semiárido. Doses de 3,55 g de N e 15,28 g de P por planta quando se utiliza água residuária na irrigação de plantas de berinjela são suficientes para suprir as necessidades nutricionais da cultura. A massa fresca da folha de plantas de berinjela decresceu linearmente com o incremente das doses de N aplicadas. A produção de massa fresca e seca da parte aérea de plantas de berinjela irrigadas com água residuária com 40% da adubação com N e P não diferiu das plantas que receberam 100% da indicação de N e P quando irrigadas com água de abastecimento e de reúso. A floração não foi afetada pelas doses de nitrogênio e fósforo, nem pelos diferentes tipos de águas utilizadas na irrigação. Não houve efeitos significativos da interação dos fatores estudados sobre as variáveis avaliadas em nenhuma das épocas de estudo. / The use without control of water by man for various purposes has promoted scarcity of this natural resource especially in arid and semi-arid regions and consequently limiting the social and economic development of regions. The planned reuse is widely used around the world, however, Brazil, even having regions with water scarcity, this practice is not yet widespread. The eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is a vegetable that has great importance in vegetable crops market in Brazil and worldwide. The objective of this research was to evaluate the technical feasibility of the use of nitrogen and phosphorus along with irrigation using post- treated wastewater in sand filter with intermittent flow in growth, biomass production and flowering eggplants grown in greenhouse in Paraíba semiarid region. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, in the Science and Technology Center Agrifood (CCTA / UFCG), Campus de Pombal - PB, and the treatments resulted in the combination of two factors: four doses of nitrogen (N1 - 3.55; N2 - 6.2; N3 - 8.9; N4 - 11.55 g N / pot) and four doses of phosphorus fertilization (P1 - 15.28; P2 - 26.74; P3 - 38.2; P4 - 49 66 g P / pot) corresponding respectively to 40; 70; 100; 130% as fertilizer indication for eggplants when grown in pots irrigated with treated wastewater post-intermittent sand filter (AR). It was added to a treatment with 100% application of N and P and whose plants were irrigated with water supply (AA). The experimental design was a completely randomized design, with treatments arranged in a factorial 4 x 4 + 1, with four replications. We conclude It follows you can use wastewater to irrigate eggplants, at conditions of semiarid. Doses of 3.55 g of N and 15.28 g P per plant when using wastewater in irrigation eggplants are sufficient to meet the nutritional needs of the crop. The fresh weight of eggplants sheet decreased linearly with the increment of N application. The fresh mass production and shoot dry eggplant plants irrigated with wastewater with 40 % application of N and P did not differ from plants receiving 100 % of the N and P indication when irrigated with water supply and reuse. The flowering was not affected by nitrogen and phosphorus doses, or by different types of water used in irrigation. There was no significant interaction of the factors studied on the variables evaluated in any of the study periods.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi utilizar efluente agroindustrial bruto e diluído proveniente do processamento de leite e frutas, na irrigação das plantas da beterraba avaliando o crescimento e suas características físico-química e microbiológica, bem como os efeitos do efluente no solo. O experimento foi de campo, instalado no setor de Horticultura pertencente ao Instituto Federal da Paraíba Campus Sousa. O delineamento experimental empregado foi em blocos casualizados em esquema fatorial (3x5), três tipos de água e cinco doses de N, com 4 repetições totalizando 15 tratamentos e 60 parcelas experimentais, correspondendo aos tipos de água: água do açude de São Gonçalo, água de açude + efluente (1:1) e efluente bruto e as doses de Nitrogênio nas quantidades de 0, 30, 60, 90 e 120% ou 0, 3, 6, 9 e 12g/m2 de N, definidas com base na análise do solo e na recomendação adubação em cobertura para beterraba do Estado de Pernambuco. A água residuária diluída e bruta apresentou maior CE e RAS e menor pH, classificando-se como água de salinidade e sodicidade média, porém apresentou baixa população microbiana do grupo coliformes fecais, encontrando-se dentro da faixa adequada para irrigação da beterraba. Foram analisadas as seguintes variáveis: desenvolvimento aéreo da cultura, determinação dos teores de NPK na folha da beterraba, massa fresca e seca da parte aérea, peso, diâmetro, teores de sólidos solúveis, pH, acidez total e em ácido cítrico e os parâmetros microbiológicos do tubérculo da beterraba e atributos químicos do solo após experimento. Observou-se que é possível produzir beterraba com água de reuso diluída e bruta com produção igualando ao irrigar com água de açude empregando-se de 30 a 60% para efluente diluído 1:1 e de 90% da recomendação de adubação para a cultura da beterraba, respectivamente. O efluente causou alteração nas características química do solo, sendo aconselháveis práticas preventivas para evitar a salinização ou sodificação do mesmo. O efluente diluído e bruto não alterou as características, química e microbiológica da beterraba, sendo possível produzir beterraba quanto a esses atributos própria para o consumo sem dano ao consumidor. / Irrigated agriculture is an activity that requires the largest volume of water in relation to the consumption of this resource for a lot of segments such as industrial, domestic and animal. The aim of this study was to use gross agribusiness and diluted effluent from processing milk and fruit, irrigation of sugar beet plants evaluating the growth and its physico-chemical and microbiological characteristics, as well as the effluent effects on the ground. The experiment was field, installed on Horticulture sector belonging to the Federal Institute of Paraiba Campus Sousa. The experimental design was randomized in blocks in a factorial scheme (3x5), three types of water and five doses of N, with 4 repetitions totaling 15 treatments and 60 experimental plots, corresponding to the water types: water from the São Gonçalo dam, dam water + effluent (1:1) and pure effluent and nitrogen doses in amounts of 0, 30, 60 90 and 120% or 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12g / m2 N, defined based on soil analysis and fertilization recommendation in coverage for beet of the State of Pernambuco. The diluted and raw wastewater showed higher EC and RAS and lower pH, ranking as salinity and medium sodicity water, but showed a lower microbial population of fecal coliform, lying within the range for beet irrigation. The following variables were analyzed: air development of culture, determination of NPK content in the beet leaf, fresh and shoot dry, weight, diameter, soluble solids, pH, total acid and citric acid and microbiological parameters tuber beet and soil chemical properties after experiment. It was observed that it is possible to produce beet with diluted gross reuse water to irrigate with matching production with pond water employing 3060% for effluent diluted 1:1 and 90% of fertilizer recommendation for beet culture, respectively. The effluent caused changes in the chemical characteristics of the soil, being advisable preventive practices to prevent the salinization or sodification of it. The diluted and raw wastewater didn’t change the chemical and microbiological beet characteristics, being possible to produce beet related to these very attributes appropriated to the consumption with no damage to consumer.
