This study focused on evaluation of the performance of phosphorus elimination using biological methods in order to respect the admissible effluent discharge limits. The yearly average of inflow total phosphorus varies from 3.64 mg/L to 4.22 mg/L comparing with 1.02 mg/ L and 1.59 mg/L the average of outflow. Chemical and biological methods are utilized to remove phosphorus. The efficiency of the numerous process available for the phosphorus removal is quite inadequate by comparing the effluent degree of purification and the removal cost.
