Wastewater treatment   was never a topic of discussion until water scarcity becomes the largest threat. The United Nations has emphasized water due significance by considering it as one of its millennium development targets. It has encouraged governments to start building new projects and technologies to cushion its effects on the global population. he initiatives are rainwater harvesting, desalination, water location transfers, and wastewater treatment. With these practices, water treatment is encouraging environmental sustainability through the following ways- 1. Energy Production:  By using microorganisms (bacteria) in the sludge phase to disintegrate organic matter, it leads to biomass production. Further, methane with a high percentage of biogas is used for generating energy to run the water treatment complex. Biogas is also useful for producing electricity and domesti...
