Abstract
One in three people in the African region suffers from water scarcity, this situation is getting worse as a result of population growth. Poor wastewater treatment exacerbates the problem, as only 10% of wastewater in Africa is estimated to be treated before being released into the environment. The major wastewater sources in Africa are agricultural, mining, domestic, and industrial effluents, which include BOD, COD, TSS, NH 4-N, and T-P, heavy metals (like Pb2+, Zn2+, Cu2+), organic compounds, and fecal coliforms.
