The microbiological contamination of soil by pretreated domestic sewage was analyzed. An experiment featuring randomized block design (RBD) with three replicates was undertaken. The treatments comprised: T - non-irrigated soil; MC - soil with fresh water; MR - soil with 350 applications of wastewater. Soil samples were collected one day after the last effluent application of effluent so that microbiological analysis would be undertaken. Results show that the contamination of soil surface by fecal coliforms in the case of MR was minimum and without any risk to health human. Absence of contamination was reported up to 1,00 m depth.Downloads
