With the current emphasis on environmental health and water pollution issues, there is an increasing awareness of the need to dispose of community wastewaters safely and beneficially. Naturally, the sewage water is rich in nitrogenous and phosphorus ( ... )
ds, which increases the level of algal booming (eutrophication) in treatment pond systems. Algae can produce potent toxins which are potentially dangerous to humans, livestock and domestic animals that may drink or swim in (For earth, 2013). Decaying algae in the stagnant water also has bad odor and the algae mats harbor E. coli and other pathogenic organisms, protozoan and helminthes, which
