Drought conditions usually occurring in southern Europe require a careful use of water resources as well as the thorough investigation of using treated domestic wastewater. The effluent produced after treatment of wastewater together with the sludge produced is considered as important resource. Ecological and health risks however may result after using the above resource in connection to soil, plant or groundwater. The positive effects connected to plant growth should not be underestimated. This paper investigates benefits and risks as to the use of treated domestic effluent and sludge on yield of crop and presents an engineering overview.
