“…They found that wastewater irrigation with CE had the most negative effects on soil properties and plant growth. Abusam and Al-Haddad (2016) monitored the quality of the final product water from the world's largest reverse osmosis wastewater plant, the Sulaibiya Wastewater and Reclamation Plant (SWTRP), over ten years on a monthly basis. They found that the final product water could meet the targeted design values at all times.…”

A review of the literature published in 2016 on topics relating to water reclamation and reuse is summarized. The review is divided into the following sections: 1) General: monitoring and assessment, social awareness and acceptance, and energy and resources recovery; 2) Treatment technology: integrated technologies, membrane treatment, reactors, WSPs, disinfection, and others; 3) Planning and Management: modeling, LCA, GHG emission, and case studies. Much of the water treatment research focused on the integrated technologies and membrane treatment.

In addition, NF plays an important role in some small-scale operations including mobile water treatment units for military activities in remote regions from the worst sources such as raw sewage [1] and space travel [15]. In the course of military action, a reliable and safe drinking water supply is an important logistical concern and it may be necessary to produce water from highly contaminated sources that may contain many trace contaminants. Safe and reliable direct water reuse is also a priority for long missions in space. Last but not least, NF presents a valuable tool for researchers to concentrate and characterize a variety of organics from aquatic environments.The removal processes of trace contaminants using NF are complex and to date poorly understood. Hence the mechanisms in this chapter are preliminary and much work still needs to be done to fill in the knowledge gap. This chapter will document and discuss the significance of trace contaminants in water and wastewater applications where NF can be applied as a treatment process. Removal mechanisms and membrane-contaminant interactions are discussed.
