1 STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS ON WATER REUSE Valentina LAZAROVA SUEZ (France) Member of French ISO Mirror Committee, Member of International Water Academy and International Desalination Academy October 26th, 2016

2 Basic principles for development of Water Reuse Regulations (Irrigation) Safe water reuse practices (e.g., California 2000) Health-based approach (WHO 2006, Australia 2006) Regulation enforcement (e.g., water quality monitoring should be practical and economically affordable) Israeli Regulations for agricultural irrigation (1978, 1999, 2005) California Code of Regulations Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 3 Water Recycling Criteria (2000) WHO Guidelines for the safe use of wastewater in agriculture (2006) Australian National Water Reuse Regulations (2006) Lazarova Water Reuse Regulations, Oct27,

3 France, 2014 California, 2000 Cyprus (no restriction) Cyprus (landscape) Greece Israel Italy, 2003 Spain, 2007 (private gardens) Spain, 2007 (crops eaten raw) Spain, 2007 (landscape) WHO 2006 Coliforms, cfu/100 ml Water reuse regulations for unrestricted irrigation Escherichia Coli Fecal coliforms Total coliforms 10,000 Pollution of secondary effluents from 1000 to E.coli/100 ml 1, WHO Bathing water ,2 0 Lazarova Water Reuse Regulations, Oct27,

4 Australian National Water Reuse Regulations Lazarova Water Reuse Regulations, Oct27,

5 Australian Water Reuse Regulations Phase 1: Wastewater and Greywater (2006) Type of use Log reduction Treatment process Water quality Dual reticulation (toilet flushing, irrigation) 4,5 to 6 Filtration/ Disinfection, membranes, UV disinfection +cross connection E.coli <1/100 ml Municipal use (open spaces, golf courses) 3,5 to 5 Filtration/ Disinfection, membranes, UV disinfection E.coli <1/100 ml Municipal use (restricted access) 1 to <6 Secondary + disinfection E.coli <100/ 100 ml Commercial food crops consumed raw 5 to 6 Filtration/ Disinfection, membranes, UV disinfection E.coli <1/100 ml Lazarova Water Reuse Regulations, Oct27,

10 European Directive on Water Reuse Minimum quality requirements for water reuse in agricultural irrigation and aquifer recharge Very complex document, impossible to follow and implement in practice V 3.1 Oct2016, discussed in Madrid, Oct 17-18, 2016 Mismatch from the most stringent CA and AU regulations with additional constraints for monitoring (from R&D studies) The only possible impact is to hinder any water reuse and stop all existing projects Key issues and inconsistencies Combination of health risk assessment and technical performance validation (log removal) Introduction of monitoring of antibiotic resistance and bioassays In addition to E.coli, monitoring of Bacteriophages and Clostridium (<1#/100 ml)! Additional on-line monitoring of water quality parameters and process performance High monitoring cost Estimated by Eureau at 0,5 /m 3 Unit cost of new parameters 1000 to 4000 /samples (bioassays and emerging contaminants) Overall cost for initial validation of reuse projects could reach 0,5 2 millions Lazarova Water Reuse Regulations, Oct27,
