"The MENA region is the driest in the world. Irrigated agriculture consumes the largest volume of water resources due to the continuous demand for food production. A huge potential for satisfying this increasing demand exists in the reuse of municipal wastewater in agriculture. This book emphasizes the importance of appropriate water policies and the enabling institutional setting in successful wastewater management and reuse. The in-depth-analysis is presented through the case study of Jordan."--Page 4 of cover.

This book gives a detailed account of the scarce water resources of Jordan, with a focus on their quantities, quality, and use for different sectors. It details the political, social, and economic dimensions of the scarce water resources along with their implications on Jordan's cooperation with its neighbors. The book includes implemented projects of dams, canals, water supply networks, waste water treatment, and more. It gives an overview of which projects have been successful and which have failed to achieve their purposes and why. Shared water with other countries and their developmental implications to the water sector are discussed and future water supply projects, such as the Red Sea-Dead Sea conduit project, are elaborated on. The book also touches upon the waves of refugees and their impact on the water sector and water strategies in Jordan.

In water-scarce areas of the Middle East, greywater (household wastewater excluding toilet waste) is commonly used by poor communities to irrigate home gardens. This both supplements the water available to the household and improves food security. This book draws together material presented at a conference in Jordan in 2007, and examines the technical approaches to treating and using greywater for irrigation, including its associated risks to health and the environment. It discusses many of the non-technical issues that influence effectiveness and sustainability of greywater use. It also takes a hard look at economic issues, arguing that more clarity and consistency from policymakers is essential if low-income, water-stressed communities are to make better and safer use of their existing water supplies. The book concludes by offering suggestions for where donor efforts and research could best be focused in the near future.Greywater use in the Middle East is important reading for researchers, donors, implementing agencies, and policymakers, in the fields of water supply, water reuse, livelihoods and agriculture.

This is the first comprehensive, multi-disciplinary book to address water policy in Jordan. Edited by the former Minister of Water and Irrigation of Jordan, with contributions by other prominent Jordanian and international water professionals, this volume covers such areas as the population-water resources equation in Jordan; institutional and legal frameworks; the data systems used for the assessment and formulation of water policy; water allocations and uses in municipal, industrial, and agricultural sectors; social and environmental issues; and water conflict with Jordan's neighbors. The book is a must for readers interested in Middle East politics and the critical nature of water issues in the region. The book notes the importance of interaction with the outside world to augment water resources through trade, making the experience of Jordan relevant to other developing regions where water is scarce. It introduces the term 'shadow water' to mean the scarce indigenous water resources that the import of agricultural and industrial commodities saves or replaces. The book shows how financially profitable it can be to treat water as a tradable commodity, to be exchanged peaceably across international borders. Haddadin and his distinguished contributors bring the water conflicts between Jordan and its neighbors, Israel and Syria, into sharp focus. The book includes a historical perspective on the development of water policies in Jordan and explores the significance of water in the religious, social, and political life of the country.

This book offers a broad and global level description of the current status of wastewater use in agriculture and then brings the readers to various places in the MENA Region and Europe to explain how some countries and regions have addressed the challenges during implementation. On a global scale, over 20 million hectares of agricultural land are irrigated using wastewater. This is one good, and perhaps the most prominent, example of the safe use potential of wastewater. Water scarcity and the cost of energy and fertilisers are among the main factors driving millions of farmers and other entrepreneurs to make use of wastewater. In order to address the technical, institutional, and policy challenges of safe water reuse, developing countries and countries in transition need clear institutional arrangements and more skilled human resources, with a sound understanding of the opportunities and potential risks of wastewater use. Stakeholders in wastewater irrigation who need to implement from scratch or improve current conditions, find it difficult to gather the necessary information on practical implementation aspects. The main objective of this book is to bridge that gap.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Physical Geography, Geomorphology, Environmental Studies, grade: 1,0, University of Passau, language: English, abstract: Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der nachhaltigen Wasserversorgung des Trockenraums des Unteren Jordantals und ist in drei Hauptkapitel untergliedert. Im ersten Teil wird das Untere Jordantal im physischen sowie sozio-ökonomischen Kontext behandelt. Das zweite Kapitel konzentriert sich auf die Aspekte, die zur aktuelle Situation geführt haben. Dabei wird zunächst ein historischer Abriss über ide Entwicklung der heutigen Landnutzung, insbesondere der Bewässerungswirtschaft, gegeben. Das Lower Jordan River Basin beheimatet ca. 80 % der jordanischen Bevölkerung und verbraucht entsprechend auch etwa 80 % der nationalen Wasserressourcen. Während die Bewässerungslandwirtschaft weniger als 5 % des BIP ausmacht, verbraucht sie doch nahezu 70 % des nationalen Wasserbedarfs. Einem sich erneuernden natürlichen Wasserdargebot von 780 MMC steht ein Vebrauch von 1,35 MMC entgegen. Dieses Ungleichgewicht wird sich aufgrund des Bevölkerungswachstums und des steigenden Wasserbedarfs in den kommenden Jahren weiterhin dramatisch verschlechtern. Im dritten Kapitel werden verschiedene Optionen für eine künftige Sicherstellung des Wasserbedarfs erörtert. Neben möglichen technischen Einsparungen im Agrarbereich werden auch die Möglichkeiten von Mehrfachwasserverwendung diskutiert, ohne die Jordanien in der Zukunft nicht auskommen wird. Allerdings wird auch kritisch hinterfragt, inwieweit die Einsicht für ein integriertes Wassermanagement mit der Realität korreliert. Erste Schritte hin zu einer nachhaltigen Wasserversorgung wurden bereits vollzogen, doch das angestrebte Ziel ist noch weit entfernt. Notwendige Schritte sind nicht nur im Bereich des Wassermanagements erforderlich, auch die Bewertung des Gutes Wasser und den damit verbundenen Kosten sowie eine langfristige Umorientierung der jordanischen Wirtschaft und eine stärkere Bewusstseinsbildung in der Bevölkerung sind nötig. Ohne die Umsetzung dieser Maßnahmen ist gegenwärtig nicht absehbar, ob das Land langfristig bei seinen Bemühungen erfolgreich sein wird.
