“…Disinfectant residuals in wastewater effluents can have detrimental effects on the environment (Moore and Calabrese, 1980;Vedachalam, 2009). The formation and adverse effects of DBPs in drinking and wastewater from chlorine and other disinfectants has been well studied and depends on the type of disinfectant, the presence of organic matter, pH, bromide ion, and other environmental factors (Nieuwenhuijsen et al, 2000;Kitis, 2004;Dell'Erba et al, 2007;Hua and Reckhow, 2007;Richardson et al, 2007).…”

This paper comprises a selection tool for water disinfection methods for fresh produce pre- and postharvest practices. A variety of water disinfection technologies is available on the market and no single technology is the best choice for all applications. It can be difficult for end users to choose the technology that is best fit for a specific application. Therefore, the different technologies were characterized in order to identify criteria that influence the suitability of a technology for pre- or postharvest applications. Introduced criteria were divided into three principal components: (i) criteria related to the technology and which relate to the disinfection efficiency, (ii) attention points for the management and proper operation, and (iii) necessities in order to sustain the operation with respect to the environment. The selection criteria may help the end user of the water disinfection technology to obtain a systematic insight into all relevant aspects to be considered for preliminary decision making on which technologies should be put to feasibility testing for water disinfection in pre- and postharvest practices of the fresh produce chain.

“…), the irrigation system starts dispensing the wastewater over a 280‐m 2 lawn with an irrigation rate of 0·51 cm day −1 using a timer (typical irrigation time is 20 min) (Vedachalam et al . ). Three sprinklers stand on 0·61 m high risers that are spaced in the irrigation landscape area.…”

“…The ‘complete mixing batch system’ is a promising option to overcome this kind of limitation (Vedachalam et al . ). It is a batch system that utilizes one chlorine tablet each time and ensures uniform dissolution and mixing of the disinfectant prior to wastewater reuse with additional mechanical systems.…”
