Water management for irrigation in areas with high water scarcity includes not only domestic wastewater treatment but also practices for the reuse of drainage water during the irrigation period. The main problem that concerns the reuse of drainage water for irrigation is the accumulation of salts due to the effluents existing in the soil. In this paper an optimization technique is proposed for the management of drainage water that uses, in combination, a soil-water-plant model (SWAP) and a mixed 0-1 linear programming method. The optimization routine was applied to the irrigation network of Alfeios River in Western Greece, an area that is characterized by high precipitation imbalances between winter and summer months.
