Abstract

Efficient wastewater management has a vital role in monitoring the flood for hazard mitigation and also peoples’ well-being through the hindrance of virus infection. Wastewater is generally produced through the household activities, farming works, and manufacturing process. Wastewater must be treated before discharge into the natural water sources or pollute the water supply. In this research study, aquatic plants were used for the biofiltration of treated domestic wastewater before discharge into the environment. The results obtained from the study demonstrated that the pH has no significant change (or even marginally). The pH of the wastewater sample was classified as safe before the treatment. However, the reduction of turbidity, nitrate, phosphorous, and ammonia using the biofiltration techniques yielded positive results. Therefore, biofiltration is an excellent alternative to tertiary wastewater treatment.
