The parameters that affect wastewater reuse criteria were taken into consideration, concerning among others reuse priorities, available treatment plants and effluent characteristics. The proposed wastewater reclamation criteria were verified by a series of lab-scale experiments, designed to study the feasibility and effectiveness of the following treatment schemes to produce treated wastewater suitable for reuse: a) disinfection of secondary effluent with UV radiation and chlorination and b) tertiary treatment and disinfection of wastewater with UV radiation and chlorination. The experimental data were analyzed using a stochastic statistical model that employs Monte Carlo simulation. The main scope of the stochastic approach was the regeneration of a greater set of data, based on the defined by the experimental information mathematical distribution of each parameter involved and the determination of relative probability distributions. Following this approach the standards proposed are realistic and feasible and in the case of restricted reuse can be readily achieved by the existing wastewater treatment plants in Greece. Even in the case of unrestricted reuse the additional treatment required can be achieved at a moderate cost, through upgrading of the existing plants with tertiary treatment. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>29</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>1</first_page><last_page>8</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">290</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000290</doi><timestamp>1713622612</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/290</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
