Deliverable Report D4.3 Recommendations for ...

The deliverable collects the results of SERPIC project that could provide recommendations to national and European policy makers for updating policies related to wastewater treatment and reclaimed water reuse, and for future standards referring to organic and microbial CECs. Specifically, these results regard the development of (i) a methodology for selecting relevant organic and microbial CECs for monitoring plans, (ii) treatments train (Route A) alternative to conventional ones (i.e. depth filtration and UV disinfection) able to guarantee an effluent fulfilling the standards for a direct reuse (for instance those set by the European Regulation 2020/741), (iii) a methodology for the risk assessment of the developed technology (more in general the reclamation facility) in view of the implementation of the required water reuse risk management plan, and (iv) quaternary treatments alternative to the well-known and already implemented (ozonation and granular activated carbon filtration) for CECs removal from water before the discharge in surface water.
