Sažetak
Agriculture as an activity classified primarily in diffuse (scattered) source of environmental pollution. Such sources of contamination are more difficult to control than point contamination sources, which are related to the discharge of wastewater from cities and residential settlements. However, agriculture may appear simultaneously as a point (concentrated) source of pollution. Filling and outside cleaning of sprayers are potential risks for point contamination of the environment with pesticides. Therefore, the filling and cleaning of sprayers should be carried out on a concrete base, where waste water from the cleaning and possible drips of pesticides are collected and further processed with one of the bio purification systems. In Slovenia we have two different systems for purification of PPP contaminated liquids. One is working on principle of water evaporation, and the other one on the microbiological degradation of pesticides using microorganisms.
