There is the inevitable increase in domestic and industrial waste with the increase in world population. The end products from the waste treatment plants are mounting and we are now faced with the inevitable end of one day being surrounded by our waste. Therefore it is crucial for us to find possible applications or uses for this waste. A social perception study was conducted by our research team to obtain acceptable uses of sewage sludge and treated waste water. In this research the possible application of sewage sludge as fertilizer for non -food crop such as the grass in the golf course was studied. The results show that using sewage sludge as fertilizer in golf courses may be an amenable application; as test conducted on soil post sludge application showed no significant threat in the increase of heavy metals and pathogens in soil.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
