Focused environmental assessment of greywater reuse in Jordan

This paper aims to assess both the opportunities and constraints for greywater (GW) reuse for irrigation. A case study was conducted for 25 users who used GW for small-scale irrigation for the period 1997–1999. Laboratory analyses of plant, soil, and GW were conducted. A focused environmental assessment was carried out to determine the viability of GW reuse for irrigation. The study concluded that GW reuse is feasible under specific conditions. Policy implications and recommendations for modifications of building code were outlined.
