Irrigation of Olives with Reclaimed Wastewaters and Deficit Strategies Affect Pathogenic Bacteria Contamination of Water and Soil

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate pathogenic bacterial contamination of the water-soil-plant system in potted olive trees irrigated with reclaimed wastewater. Desalinated water (DW) obtained by treating municipal wastewater (SW) and reclaimed water (RW) obtained by mixing SW with the brine (BR) produced by DESERT technology (tertiary treatment by ultrafiltration, active carbon and reverse osmosis) were used. Two different irrigation regimes were compared: full irrigation (FI) and regulated deficit irrigation (RDI).… Show more

“…perfringens was detected in TW and MW (in one of eight samples) from WWTP-P, and was detected in TW from WWTP-K. This microorganism results in being more resistant in the environment and to disinfection treatments than coliforms and enterococci [32]. It is the main etiological agent of myonecrosis of connective tissues [33] and may also be responsible for food poisoning and diarrhea [34].…”
