Sewage, Liquid Effluent and Water Treatment

Treatment and Disposal of Wastes Sewage, Liquid Effluent and Water Treatment 

All the compounds under discussion occur at low concentrations in sewage, and in many industrial effluents. During the course of normal biological treatment, the volatile compounds (mono- and dichlorobenzenes) are lost by volatilization, while the rest are reduced, by 50%-70%, mainly by adsorption on sludge, with little evidence of biodegradation [40, 60, 119].
