What Technologies are Used in Wastewater Treatment?
Several technologies are employed in wastewater treatment, including bioreactors, membrane filtration, and chemical treatments. Bioreactors use microorganisms to break down organic matter, while membrane filtration physically separates contaminants from the water. Chemical treatments involve adding substances that neutralize or precipitate pollutants. The choice of technology depends on the specific contaminants present and the desired quality of the treated water.
