“…However, the accurate technology depends on the subsequent application of reclaimed water. It might be used for an irrigation in agriculture and urban agglomeration (gardens, golf courses) [12,13], technological processes (washing and cooling purposes) [14,15] or to flush toilets [16]. Importantly, each application of reclaimed water brings the potential risk of contamination; therefore, maintaining its control is required [17].…”
