1 Reduction of clogging in agricultural irrigation networks IRTA Torre Marimon Carmen Biel Robert Savé CTM Montse Calderer Gemma Serra Re-Water Congress November 2-3, 2015
2 Introduction Biofilms can have important implications in horticultural situations. Also are likely present in every water system and pipe, filter, pump, tank, hose, emitter and nozzle in a nursery, greenhouse, field crop, garden, etc. Not surprisingly, biofilms are also commonly associated with irrigation systems where they can cause a variety of problems including clogging and corrosion. Emitter clogging is one of the bottlenecks to restrain the application and popularization of reclaimed water with drip irrigation technology. It is tightly related to the formation of biofilms attached on drip irrigation pipes and emitters. Biofilm formation in the emitter depends on design, water flow velocity, water pressure. 2
3 Objectives One objective of present assay is testing the standard maintenance cleaning of irrigation system with nitric acid against a novel system based on the injection of CO 2 in the water. Second objective is to compare two drippers with different hydraulic properties because its design and internal path. 3
4 Tested treatments - Reclaimed water from ETAP Caldes de Montbui (Barcelona) - Reclaimed water + Nitric Acid - Reclaimed water + CO 2 injection - Well water = water from underground extracted from the same plot IRRIGATION DRIPPERS Compensated dripper integral dripper line 4

10 Experimental design Dripper s nominal water flow rate is 2 L.h -1 at working pressure: 1.4 and 1.8 kg.m -2 Type of operation: Irrigation during 10 minutes x 2 times a day at 9:00 and 16:00 hours. The water is stagnant from 9:10 to 16:00 h and from 16:10 to 9:00 h of the following day. 10
11 Experimental design Irrigation control room and tanks for CO 2 injection and acid application to water Automatic control panel for irrigation schedule and CO 2 injection Tanks for reclaimed water and one with CO 2 injection (right tank). 11

15 Biofilm sampling 1. Sample collection: pipe sections will be monthly collected and transported to the laboratory in insulated cold boxes and sterile bottles. FOR EACH PIPE: 3 SUBSECTIONS Section a Section b Section c 2. Swabbing: Each pipe will be cut into three portions and biofilm will be collected by swabbing the surface. 3. Bacteria extraction: Vortexing vigorously the swab to release the bacteria into the sterile solution (Ringer ¼ ). 4. Heterotrophic plate count (HPC) method: The number of heterotrophic bacteria in each sample will be counted on R2A Agar. Each sample was tested in duplicate and colonies were counted after incubation at 22ºC for 7 days. 1ml 1ml 1ml 5. Results: concentration per unit area of the pipe surface. Original

25 Preliminary conclusions Thirteen months of treatment, operating in total 90 hours, there has not been enough time to biofilm grow in the pipes and drippers to clogging it. We have not detected an increase of water pressure differences between the in and out of the irrigation pipes. However, in well water emitters there were a small flow increase. The ph of the reclaimed water was increased after three weeks water is maintained in the tank. Perhaps is due to temperature increase because of trees cut clearance around the tank. Then we have to adjust CO 2 injection and nitric acid dosification. Bacterial count in irrigation pipes is very low (1 to 3 logarithm units) and variable.
26 Preliminary conclusions After visual determination of drippers we can see some biofilm but those are not enough to cause of clogging. Irrigation system need to operate more time to have dripper clogging. We will determine the bacterial community composition in order to see if there are differences due to nitric acid or CO 2 treatment. We will continue the measurements of flow pressure, water flow and biofilm formation in different season and air temperatures 26
