Disinfection With Peracetic Acid for Domestic Sewage Re‐Use in Agriculture

This paper describes a four‐month pilot study on peracetic acid disinfection of unchlorinated tertiary effluent for unrestricted re‐use in agriculture carried out at West Bari (Italy) sewage‐treatment works. Dosages and contact times ranging from 1 to 500 mg/1 and 5 to 60 mins, respectively, indicated that 10 mg/1 of peracetic acid, with a 30‐min contact time, achieved the WHO faecal coliform guideline (1000 CFU/100ml). Much higher doses (£400 mg/l and 30 mins) were required to meet the corresponding Californian limit of two colony‐forming units/100 ml, which has also been adopted in Italy. Efficient mixing of the disinfectant (in one shot addition) was mandatory ‐ particularly at lower dosages (1–10 mg/l) where there was a higher concentration of suspended solids (>5 mg/l).
