The project, entitled 'Reuse of Treated Water for Environmental Applications: groundwater recharge using permeable reactive barriers and for energy forestry purposes', seeks to apply the treated water to determinated crops so that it becomes an feasible option within the field of renewable energies. For small populations, this alternative can contribute to the amortization of the costs of waste water treatment and to an important saving in drinkable water.
