trattamento delle acque reflue e per il loro riutilizzo in agricoltura: il progetto Madforwater
Madforwater at a glance Societal Challenge: Climate Action, Environment, Resource Efficiency
and Raw Materials (SC5)
Topic: WATER-5c-2014/2015 - Strengthening international R&I cooperation in the field of water. Development of water supply and sanitation technology, systems and tools, and/or methodologies
Starting date: 1 June 2016.
Duration: 4 years
Total cost: 4.039.419 €
EU funding: 2.914.419 €
Coordinator: Dr. Dario Frascari, University of Bologna
Co-coordinator: Dr. Giulio Zanaroli, University of Bologna
General goal
To develop an integrated set of technological and management instruments for the enhancement of
wastewater treatment, treated wastewater reuse for irrigation and water efficiency in agriculture, with the final aim to reduce water vulnerability in selected hydrological
basins in Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia.

ADAPTATION
INTEGRATION
The Madforwater concept
Madforwater is based on 2 main pillars: water supply (wastewater treatment) and water demand (irrigation)
Irrigation covers 80-85% of freshwaterconsumption in the 3 target basins
The actions related to these 2 pillars willbe transversally characterized by the concepts of
adaptation to the local conditionsof the 3 target North Africancountries
integration (i) within each pillar, between technologies, water management strategies and economic instruments; and (ii) transversally, between WW treatment and WW reuse for irrigation

WW treatment section Performances will be evaluated for each
pollutant in terms of: Removal extent (%) Removal rate (kgpollutant/d/m3
reactor) Effluent concentration / maximum
concentration allowed by the international standards for WW reuse in agriculture
More specific indicators will be developed for specific unit operations: Rate of enzyme activity loss Rate of adsorption efficiency loss
Irrigation section Performances will be evaluated for each sub-section in terms of:
Crop production yield (kgcrop/m2) Crop irrigation yield (kgcrop/m3
water used) Plant irrigation yield (kgplant /m3

The expected impact
WW treatment technologies
Increased turnover for WW treatment companies (9.4 b€)
LAND IRRIGATED WITH EFFICIENT TECHNOLOGIES (10% of irrigated land)
Irrigation technologies
LAND IRRIGATED WITH HIGH QUALITY TREATED WW
• Increase of WW reused in agriculture (from 7% to 28%)
• Reduction of water consumption in agriculture
• Increased income for 6 million farmers; increased turnover for irrigation companies (1.4 b€)
Increase of available water (6.3% of the water currently consumed in agriculture)
