Abstract
Wastewater reuses has been one of the important practices in human activities. Wastewater reclamation is
intensively used worldwide for various purposes (e.g crop and landscape irrigation ornamental and recreational
impoundment ground water recharge industrial purposes and fire protection). The objective of this study was to
evaluate the performance of trickling filter for wastewater treatment. The process was easy and economic to
operate. The total removals were 669.3(90%), 334.8(92.7%), 297.5(89.5%) for COD, BOD and TSS. Coliform
and Escherichia coli were 6 log. Salmonella spp was not detected in the final effluent treatment. The density of
E.coli was 1.5×102 MPN- index/100 ml with the final effluent. The characteristics of final effluent were suitable
for reuse in various purposes such as crop and landscape irrigation and this due to good engineering design of
the pilot which gives a qualified final effluent wastewater.
