Summary Introduction
Wastewater treatment by biological way is an important and integral treatment processes that treat soluble organic impurities or a mix of two different wastewater either from industry or municipalities. Aerobic activated sludge process is a well known biological treatment process that has been in practice over a century. The implementation of a variety of advanced biological treatment processes in recent years is due to increasing pressure to meet more stringent discharge standards or not being allowed to treated effluent discharge in the environment.
