👉 The treated fluid, also known as effluent or treated wastewater, is a byproduct of various water treatment processes designed to remove contaminants and pollutants from raw wastewater before it is discharged back into the environment or reused. This fluid undergoes multiple stages of treatment, including physical, chemical, and biological processes, to purify it. The treated fluid can be used for non-potable purposes such as irrigation, industrial processes, or even groundwater recharge, significantly reducing the demand for fresh water and minimizing environmental impact. The specific composition of treated fluid varies depending on the treatment methods employed, but it generally contains lower levels of organic matter, nutrients, pathogens, and other harmful substances compared to raw wastewater.
