Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Looking for new solutions to address the needs of sustainable development, domestic wastewater is now being seen as an untapped resource harboring energy, fertilizer, and a source of freshwater. Integrating decentralized water treatment systems for reclamation and reuse of wastewater into an existing urban infrastructure is one option for managing water resources more sustainably. Turfgrass covers 163,000 to 202,000 km2 in the U.S. and represents a major water use as the most highly irrigated crop, using three times more water than corn. The goal of this research is to demonstrate the feasibility of using treated wastewater tailored to simultaneously fertilize and irrigate turfgrass, specifically by:
• Assessing salt accumulation, leaching of various nitrogen compounds, and turfgrass performance in rootzones irrigated with tailored water from a subsurface drip system.
• Evaluating the response of soil microbial communities and their ability to attenuate nutrients and contaminants applied with tailored water.
