-Reusing of treated wastewater effluent, which is normally discharged to the environment from municipal wastewater treatment plants, is receiving an increasing attention as a reliable water resource.

The volume of this resource may be worthily taken into consideration in the planning and implementations of water resources projects.

Among these implementations is the reuse of wastewater for agricultural irrigation, environmental restoration, cleaning, toilet flushing, and industrial uses, which is practiced today in almost all arid areas all over the world.

In another words, the best water reuse projects, in terms of economic viability and public acceptance, are those that substitute reclaimed water instead of potable water for use in irrigation.

The other main benefit of using reclaimed water in these situations is the friendly environmental use of water and pollution reduction.

However, many developing countries are still unable to implement comprehensive wastewater treatment programs, because wastewater irrigation is an issue of concern to public agencies responsible for maintaining public health and environmental quality.

Currently most of the middle east countries have developed their own experience in this field, however, among these countries Iraq has nothing to do in this field, a case which make one feels sorrowful.

Therefore, in this work, such techniques have been analytically discussed, and handy systems of drip irrigation methods for using treated wastewater in Iraq have been proposed.

Moreover, in this work, a research study has been carried out as a leading efforts on this promising field of recycling wastewater usage in Iraq.

For the time being, it has been detected that about 1 million cubic meters in the city of Baghdad only is disposed every day to Tigris river after getting secondary treatment, most of these quantity can be used to irrigate about(43882)ha.

In this respect, gray water may be more reliable and less pollutant than black water, a case which can be used in wide range of irrigation system.

It has been shown that in 2020 the amount of wastewater in the city of Baghdad may increased to as much as (4388264)m3/day, which (if treated) may irrigate as much as(43882)ha of industrial crops, or to be used for planting a green belt of trees surrounding the whole city of Baghdad, this could help in damping the dust storms which became a predominant phenomena in the last few years.

It is also shown that the concept of decentralization sewage treatment plants and separation of gray water in source may be the most dare steps to be taken by the authorities to comply with the new era of water reuse management in Iraq.
