In allusion to environmental pollution brought about by wastewater irrigation, EM technology was introduced to study the feasibility of EM application in wastewater irrigation. The results show that EC, NO3--N and TN value of EM treatment in shallow groundwater are all less than those of WW treatment as a whole. In all samples, 59.3% NO3--N values are in the alert status, and when irrigation amount reaches 360mm, treatment WW has caused shallow groundwater pollution. TN concentration in treatment WW-3 on June 27 and July 9 is more than 110 mg/L. It suggests that NO3--N can easily penetrate into shallow groundwater with wastewater irrigation and there is insurance of groundwater pollution in the long-term wastewater irrigation. It also indicates that application of wastewater treated by EM reused for irrigation is feasible. TP values are all very low and suggest the pollution of P does not happen.
