The ultimate aim was the establishment of sound scientific basis for the TMWW reuse in the irrigation of vegetable production. A randomized block design was used including TMWW and the control, in six replications, the vegetable of Brassica oleracea var. Gemmifera (Brussels sprouts) being used as a test crop. The following were found: Forty interactions took place in the soil between heavy metals Pb, Ni, Co, Cd, Cu and Zn. Of these, 11 were significant under both the TMWW and the Control, respectively. Also, under only TMWW 15 interactions or 37.5% were statistically significant, while under the Control 21 or 52.5%. It was also shown that the effect of TMWW on most of the statistically significant interactions between heavy metals, did not differ significantly from that of the control, suggesting that from this point of view, the TMWW could be used for reuse in vegetable irrigation, provided that health risk related to microbiological factor is taken into account. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>497</first_page><last_page>509</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">578</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000578</doi><timestamp>1714748625</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/578</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
