Summary:Abstract Water produced by a community is referred to as domestic wastewater. Consequently, it is made up of waste products from human bodies and water used for cleansing. The smell of fresh wastewater is earthy but not unpleasant. It is a grayish, turbid liquid. It also comprises pollutants in real solution together with big floating and suspended particles, smaller suspended solids (such partly digested vegetable peel, paper, and feces), and extremely small materials in colloidal suspension. Because it includes numerous disease-causing (or “pathogenic”) organisms, it is offensive in appearance and dangerous in composition. In a sewage treatment facility, the wastewater that is produced will be cleaned up and then dumped into rivers or fields, as appropriate. In this research, an effort has been made to determine the feasibility of reusing domestic wastewater after treatment of Vijayawada city in the casting of concrete. The performance of domestic wastewater performance has been carried out through various tests, such as compressive strength, split tensile strength, and rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT).
