WATER REUSE FEASIBILITY STUDY IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC

摘要

This paper describes the potential for greater wastewater reuse in the Czech Republic. On the basis of a country wide analysis of the water management situation, different regions were identified with particular water stress problems. The first water stressed region was identified on the basis of insufficient surface water quality, where most of the rivers were ranked into the water quality category V. This region is known as industrial area and hence there is a possibility to reuse wastewater for industrial purposes. The second investigated region is in a rain shadow area and can be characterized as water stressed in terms of climatic conditions. This area is in the South of Moravia which is famous for agricultural production, and there is a potential to reuse wastewater for agricultural purposes.
