AllMiddle views published in this bookcountries reflect the are viewsfacing of the authors not necessarily East developing scarcityand inare water resources. They depend on thegroundwater views of BERC or the Organizing Committee. The accuracy of the information in renaissance in these as the main source. The last three decades witnessed an urban thecountries abstracts iswhich the sole responsibility the related authors. includes sewerofsystems construction. Unfortunately, this progress was done without going for a proper treatment projects for the collected big quantities of urban sewers

Biodiversity & Environmental Research Center (BERC), propagates a negative impact on the main source of water. Lack of financing to construct Til, Nablus, wastewater treatment projects was the main reason for this environmental ignorance. In Palestine, Tel: 09-2536406, Fax: 09-2536147, West Nablusberc-taphm.com was funded by kfW to construct two wastewater treatment plants in east and Website: Bank, www.berc.ps, [email protected] of the city. In 2015, Nablus West wastewater treatment plant was put into operation and Email:

created an alternative source of water. Nablus Municipality strategy was concentrated into insuring a sustainable operation before going ahead for tertiary treatment and starting reuse projects. After two years of sustainable operation for the plant, pilot reuse projects have been done to improve the quality of treated water using tertiary treatment to be fit for agricultural reuse. Lands inside and outside the plant were planted and irrigated by tertiary treated wastewater that meets 34 quality items required by the specification of Ministry of agriculture for reuse. Alfalfa and various kinds of trees are planted and irrigated by the projects. The treated water is distributed to farmers by irrigating networks which have flowmeters for accounting the sold water under the local law conditions. This paper is exploring the primary results and lessons learned by the first current practices of reuse in Palestine, going in details for the strategic plans of Nablus municipality for one of biggest reuse projects in West Bank

Background: Water availability is the limiting factor for extensive irrigated production in large areas of the Middle-East including Palestine. Maintained and increased productivity in the region requires utilization of book marginal mainly effluent (STE) for irrigation. All views published in this reflectwater, the views of thesecondary authors andtreated are not necessarily Effluent contains high levels of salts and heavy metals, which might be harmful to crops. Economic the views of BERC or the Organizing Committee. The accuracy of the information in production systems based on effluent irrigation therefore depend on identification of tolerant thecultivars, abstracts capable is the soleofresponsibility of thethese relatedconditions. authors. The overall goal of the present research is high yield under to develop agro-industrial production of aromatic plants, under irrigation with local treated effluent Biodiversity & Environmental Research Center (BERC), in the Palestine. Til,Methods: Nablus, To compare responses of the aromatic plants to irrigation with STE and potable water Tel: 09-2536406, Fax: 09-2536147, (PW) an experimental field has been established in Til, Nablus. The experimental design included Website: www.berc.ps, comparison of theberc-taphm.com 2 water quality treatments, and 5 aromatic plants: Oreganum syriacum, Email: [email protected] Micromeria fruticosa, Mentha spicata, Salvia fruticosa, and Rosmarinus officinalis. The five plants were grown in a completely randomized block design. The STE was administered to the plants by drip irrigation. STE has been obtained from the Dairsharaf waste water treatment facility of the Nablus city. Plants responses to effluent irrigation was analyzed by testing different parameters including the morphological development and dry biomass accumulation, physiological responses of the plants, phenols, and flavonoids analysis. Chemical and physical parameters of water and soil quality were also monitored, in addition to the bacteriological analyses for Soil, plant and water. Results: Morphological development and biomass accumulation were evaluated for the aromatic plants on seven different occasions (Dec 2014-October 2016). Irrigation with STE has no effect on fresh biomass, dry weight, percentage of spices output, and essential oil yield. The physiological responses of the plants for irrigation with the STE were evaluated by recording membrane leakage, osmotic potential and plant pigments analysis. Irrigation with STE has no significant effect on membrane leakage of the different plants. The STE increased significantly the osmotic potential of M. spicata, O. syriacum and R. Officinalis, while, osmotic potential of M. fruticosa and S.fruticosa were not affected.Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were not affected by irrigation with STE, except for M. spicata, where total phenolic content was reduced in June 2016. Soil chemical and physical properties were determined following standard soil analytic methods: soil water content; pH, EC, Cl, Ca , Mg, Fe, Zn, Cu, Cl, Cr, Pb. Total and fecal coliform count were reduced significantly after water chlorination. Conclusion: Our data demonstrate that STE can be successfully used for irrigation of industrial crop production setups for essential oil production from O. Syriacum, M. spicata, S. officinalis, and R. officinalis without compromising yield quantity. Keywords: Secondary treated effluent, Palestine, aromatic plants, Essential oils.

In addition, the capacity of Website: www.berc.ps, laboratories at the berc-taphm.com three selected WWTPs including four national labs were assessed. The results Email: [email protected] obtained the following: - The Palestinian reuse standards are based on FAO, WHO and set effluent quality parameters prescribed in the memorandum of Understandings (MoUs) of the joint water committee. The latter entail less stringent quality parameters for the treated effluent destined for agricultural irrigation. However, if discharged into seasonal Wadis, more stringent technical rules apply (10/10/10 as mg/L for BOD/TSS/total N). - Despite seasonal operational disruption, all WWTPs produced reclaimed water (after filtration and disinfection) in compliance with PSI 742 considering salinity parameters (TSS, COD, totalN) and sanitary quality parameters (pathogenic microorganisms). Reclaimed water contained only nine of 14 elements including boron with values below the PSI-742 limits. - Relaxation of the PSI-742 quality parameters entails reduction in the number (half) of heavy metals required, removing BOD, lowering total-N similar to that in TR-34, in the latter raise SAR value as in PSI-742, and add EC and pH. MoA reuse permit shall include priority parameters, as TDS, turbidity, Cl and Na content due to their potential toxicity on soil and produce. - Capacity of local laboratories urges concerned parties recognize specific labs for the analysis of certain lab tests based on equipment availability and staff qualification. This will ensure reliable and credible lab results and monitoring. Training of lab analysts and securing spare parts and sufficient chemicals are essential. To enhance health and environmental protection, enforcement of regulatory monitoring for the WWTPs, regular O&M, preventive and corrective maintenance, control of illicit industrial discharges, pretreatment of heavy industrial polluters, are all urgent measures suggested.

A comparison was carried out between the soil properties in two Website: www.berc.ps, experimental plots; berc-taphm.com one was irrigated with the effluent from Gaza Wastewater Treatment Plant over Email: [email protected] a period of four months, and the other was irrigated with fresh water in the same period. The irrigation water was applied by drip irrigation system, and the crop used was sorghum. The fresh water samples were obtained from the local well in the farm, and treated wastewater samples were obtained from the wastewater collection basin and analyzed for TSS, EC, pH, TDS, Ca, Mg, Na, SAR, CO3, Cl, NO3, TKN, TP, K, PO4, and selected heavy metals "Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn" in addition to BOD, COD and the number of fecal and total coliforms before irrigation. Composite soil samples were taken from depth of 0-30 cm in both plots and analyzed for the main chemical parameters. Results: The results indicated that the level of TDS, Na, Cl, TSS, Zn and Fe were higher in the effluent than the fresh water; it was above the recommended Palestinian standard for dry fodder irrigated by treated wastewater. Also, irrigation with wastewater lead to significant increase in O.M, CEC, K, TP, Ca, Mg, Na, and Cl in soil than irrigation with fresh water. In addition, the increases of Zn, Fe, Mn, and Pb in soil and sorghum plant irrigated with treated wastewater were significant in comparison with the plants irrigated with fresh water. Further, treated wastewater increased the plants height, and grain weight of sorghum. Key words: Irrigation, Treated wastewater reuse, Chemical soil properties, Sorghum, Gaza.

For this purpose, a double stage CWL was used for the treatment of wastewater of rural domestic origin. The first wetland pond was planted with Common Reeds (Phragmites australis) while the second pond was left unplanted and a UV sterilizer was installed at the exit of the second pond. The results showed that the removal rate of total suspended solids (TSS) was higher in the first pond compared to the unplanted one which implies a role for the plant roots in hindering the movement of solids across the pond. The reduction in water turbidity gave similar indication while transmittance of water to UV at 254 nm was higher in the second pond. The CWL was able to remove more than 99% of the total and fecal coliform from the wastewater and subsequent UV disinfection removed the remaining total and fecal coliforms. The study suggests the effectiveness of low cost UV sterilizing systems to remove the pathogenic threat from small scale CWL which give great potential for the safe use of CWL for onsite wastewater treatment in rural areas and the subsequent reuse of wastewater.

In addition use the harvested Duckweed as a fodder for chicks, in order to apply minimum waste technology. The removal efficiency of indoor Duckweed container for BOD, COD and NH4+-N was found to be about 41.1%, 75.3%, 65.3% respectively. While the removal efficiency of outdoor Duckweed container for BOD, COD and NH4+-N was found to be about 80.7%, 92.4%, 98.6% respectively. It was found that the chicks fed with the mixture of dried Duckweed and ordinary fodder (ratio 1:1) have grown faster than those fed with ordinary fodder only. Based on these simple preliminary results, it was concluded that the use of Duckweed to treat wastewater was effective, breeding the chicks under ideal conditions and fed them with the mixture of harvested Duckweed and fodder could lead to better chicks growth, and all of which achieve sustainable development.
