Caliche Soils as a Filter Medium for Treatment and Disposal of Wastewater
Abstract
Through support from the Texas On-Site Wastewater Treatment Research Council, a project to search the literature relative to caliche materials as a medium for treatment and disposal of wastewater has been conducted. It was hypothesized before undertaking this effort that there would be a dearth of published and unpublished information on this subject. Specifically, the goals of the project were to:
Provide a working definition of “caliche” in relation to treatment of wastewater.
Perform a comprehensive literature review on the effectiveness of caliche soils as a bioremediation filter media in the treatment and disposal of wastewater.
Develop recommendations for future research that would address issues identified above.
