The generation of waste due to human activities has been steadily increasing. This has driven a need for optimized and cost-effective wastewater treatment technologies capable of helping businesses prevent the further contamination of aquatic ecosystems. Government authorities and environmental organizations are also demonstrating a greater concern for environmental protection by establishing regulations to govern industrial and municipal wastewater disposal. To abide by these regulations, industries are implementing various wastewater treatment technologies, including biological methods like activated sludge process (ASP), membrane bioreactor (MBR), moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR), constructed wetlands (CWs), and advanced oxidation processes, such as photocatalysis, Fenton process, and more.
