Abstract
The study was conducted to find out to what extent non-conventional water utilization in the agricultural field is possible, e.g., wastewater treated with nanomaterial alternatives. The research encompassed two laboratory experiments: The first one was to discover the efficiency of the nanomaterial used to remove heavy elements, such as (Cu, Mn, Zn), from raw wastewater and the laboratory concentrations were () mg × L−1; and the second one was to test the effect of Nano-treated water on the percentage of pea seed germination in sterile plastic pots and three duplicates per parameter as a vital indicator. The experiment parameters included: (T1) tap water; (T2) raw wastewater; and (T3) Nano-treated wastewater using TiO2. As for the third experiment, it was field-implemented by cultivating the plastic pots in the greenhouse of the Department of Life Sciences, University of Samarra, at the onset of January 2019 to see the effect of Nano-treatment, used on concentrations of the heavy element of zinc, on the vegetative parts of the local pea plant.
