The increasing demand on limited water supplies has accelerated the wastewater reuse and
reclamation. We investigated gamma irradiation effects on wastewater by measuring
differences in the legislated parameters, aiming to reuse the wastewater. Effluents samples
were collected at the urban wastewater treatment station of Tetouan and were irradiated at
different doses ranging from 0 to 14kGy using a Co60 gamma source. The results showed
an elimination of bacterial flora, a decrease of biochemical and chemical oxygen demand …
