In the past, there was no preoccupation in minimizing water consumption which was probably due the belief of its abundance and easy access. Nowadays, the interest in water conservation and reuse has increased especially in forest nurseries. However, before water is reused it must be treated in order to minimize the risk of spread inocula of pathogens and to reduce losses caused by diseases. In this study, water treatment processes of ultrafiltration and conventional physical-chemical treatment were evaluated regarding the eradication inocula of Ralstonia solanacearum, Xanthomonas axonopodis, Botrytis cinerea and Cylindrocladium candelabrum, the most common nursery pathogens in Brazil. The ultrafiltration eradicated over 99% inocula of R. solanacearum, X. axonopodis and B. cinerea and 100% of inoculum of C. candelabrum. The treated water was tested for irrigation and yielded no infected eucalyptus rootted cuttings. Sand filtration used in the physical-chemical treatment system allowed complete eradication of C. candelabrum inoculum, but complete inoculum eradication of the other pathogens was only achieved after chlorination of the filtered water with residual chlorine from 1.74 mg/L. No symptoms of phytotoxicity were found on Eucalyptus rooted cuttings irrigated with water containing residual chlorine at 1.74 mg/L. Both methods tested are practical, viable and safe to eradicate phytopathogens inoculum from irrigation water.
