Growing environmental pressures and escalating intake water costs are causing an increasing number of industrialists to reappraise their effluent treatment facilities with a view to effluent recycle and/or resource recovery. In certain instances industrialists have opted for treated sewage effluent as a water source for their process. Water Management Schemes are being, or have been, implemented at a number of industrial concerns in order to rationalise overall water intake and effluent disposal costs.

Effluent is discharged below the low-water mark at Boags Rocks, Victoria, Australia, at an average rate of 437 × 106 L day–1. Three study sites following a gradient of pollution from high (at Boags Rocks) to intermediate (Cape Schanck) to unpolluted (Cheviot Beach) were chosen for the main experiments. Surveys of the algal assemblages were conducted in spring and summer and showed the absence of the pre-discharge dominant Hormosira banksii at Boags Rocks and an abundance of turf-forming and ephemeral species at the two polluted sites. There was no evidence that the treated sewage detrimentally affected either the availability of propagules (asexual spores, gametes, zygotes or fragments) or macroalgal recruitment to artificial or natural substrata. Opportunistic genera such as UIva and Enteromorpha showed very high recruitment and propagule densities in the water column at polluted sites, apparently benefiting from the increased nutrient loads. Investigation of the number of H. banksii zygotes in water samples from various habitats showed very limited dispersibility for this species. The small dispersal shadow of H. banksii, combined with the environmental pressures placed on establishing zygotes, would severely limit the re-establishment of this species at polluted sites, even if given suitable conditions.

Purpose: research and development of design solutions for drainage and watering systems using linear and frontal-circular movement sprinkling machines for the effective use of system water resources when draining and moistening reclaimed lands in non-sloping (low-slope) areas and with a slight slope. Materials and methods. During the research, the well-known design solutions of drainage and watering, irrigation and water circulation systems of various scientists were analyzed. In the course of analysis of constructive solutions and methods of movement, analytical, comparative and logical methods were used. When developing (improving) design solutions, the design method was used. Results. During the research, it was found that in the humid zone, due to the decrease in irrigation norms, there is a possibility of increasing the seasonal load of sprinklers. Based on the results of studies of the principles of moving sprinkler machines and currently used design solutions in order to reduce energy consumption and increase the land use coefficient, three design solutions have been proposed for reclaimed lands with different slopes. It is proposed to use frontal and frontal-circular sprinklers in drainage and watering systems. Humidification in these solutions is carried out by accumulated drainage runoff with the possibility of discharging its excess water into a water intake-water source, as well as, additional withdrawal from it in case of necessity. Conclusions. As a result of the research, the constructive solutions for drainage and watering systems have been proposed using frontal-circular and frontal sprinklers on non-slope (low-slope) reclaimed lands, as well as those with a slope, which make it possible to reduce the number of sprinklers due to reduced irrigation norms and the location of the combined drainage-watering and watering networks.
