As a follow-up, a brief overview of the classification of wastewater and its potential for end use is presented. Furthermore, a specific overview of irrigation using wastewater is presented, together with the relevant scientific papers in which the research on waste- water irrigation impacts on the plants, soil, humans, and the environment are studied.
