However, in developing country the volume of treating and using wastewater is limited due to the lack of adequate data, knowledge, and improper management. Wastewater is an important source of water and nutrients for irrigation in developing countries. It can be used as reclaimed water and applied directly to crops or indirectly after discharge and dilution with water from rivers or reservoirs.
