Background: The swine production is a very important economic matter, occupying prominent position in theworldwide market. However, it appears as the greater impacting activity for the water resources. Researches point aswine manure production of 105.6 million m3/year in Brazil, which resulted in a piggery wastewater rich in solids,nutrients, heavy metals, and pathogens. Moreover, the water consumption for swine production is approximately15 L/animal/day in southern Brazil, resulting in an unsustainable water resource demand. Thereby, this study verifiesthe viability of two parallel stabilization reservoirs as a technology for polishing treated piggery wastewater. Thistechnology has been shown effective in reducing organic matter, nutrients, and pathogens in the treatment of theeffluents with low or high organic load rate. The reservoirs can improve effluent quality with minimal energy coststo simple operations. The technique would promote the value of the effluent through its reuse for agriculturalirrigation. The study was conducted at a farm in the city of Braço do Norte, Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil; thisregion has one of the largest densities of pigs in the world, which causes serious environmental problems.Results: The effluent monitoring program included operation during both cold seasons (period I) and warmseasons (period II). The performance of the reservoirs improved continuously during the cold seasons, with theremoval efficiencies of total biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), and Escherichia colireaching 52%, 64%, and 99.9%, respectively, with an effluent concentration of 144 mg·L−1 for BOD5 and 256 mg·L−1for TKN. During the warm seasons, the BOD5, TKN, and E. coli removal efficiencies increased to 85%, 77%,and 99.9%, respectively, with an effluent concentration of 52 mg·L−1for BOD5 and 136 mg·L−1 for TKN, whichindicates that seasonal factors greatly influence the removal of these variables. E. coli concentrations were notverified into stabilization reservoirs on both periods.Conclusions: The results of this study confirmed that the stabilization reservoirs are capable experimental unitspromoting improved quality of the treated effluent. A seasonal influence was evident. The results demonstratedthat the effluent was a good alternative for unrestrained irrigation use. The microbiological quality complies withthe World Health Organization recommendations. The reuse of this treated effluent can reduce pig manure impactson the environment and water resources.
