Review on wastewater treatment technologies. International Journal of Applied Environmental Sciences, 11 (1). pp. 111-126. ISSN 0973-6077 (2016)
Abstract
Nowadays, water resources are becoming increasingly scarce and many of them are polluted by anthropogenic sources such as industrial purpose, agricultural waste and household. Therefore, the treatment of wastewater
remains a critical need before leaving it to natural water streams. The main purpose of wastewater treatment is to remove the various contaminants that presence in the wastewater such as suspended solids, organic carbon, nutrients, inorganic salts, heavy metals, pathogens and so on. The ultimate goal of the wastewater treatment is to provide the protection in terms of human health and
environmental aspect. In this article, the use of wastewater treatment methods such as biofilm technology, aerobic granulation and microbial fuel cell are
discussed briefly.
