Description
Summary:Reuse of wastewater plays a key role in reducing the consumption of water resources. Results show that the use of wastewater in agriculture had a positive effect on sodium absorption ratio and humus soil and improves soil conditions. The aim of this study was to improve the performance of the treatment of industrial effluents for reuse through applying the analytic hierarchy process. In determining the promotion of industries wastewater treatment system, the most important criterion was environment with relative weighting of 43.7%; the best sub-criterion was desired treatment degree with relative weight of 23.6%. regarding to management criteria, the best sub-criterion was sustainable operation with relative weight of 28.8%; for the economic criteria, the sub-criterion was the land requirement with relative weight of 58.2% and finally for technical criteria, the sub-criterion was treatment plant upgrading and development with the relative weight of 38.5%. Therefore, for improving system performance of the industrial wastewater treatment to prevent the accumulation of heavy metals, recycling and increased soil salinity to the level not resulting in soil salinity are recommended as environmental criteria (degree of treatment).
