Removal of phosphorus by microflora in drain

One of the ways to reduce water pollution is to treat the wastewater from it source point. Wastewater biological treatment is one or the system that is used to treat wastewater before it can be discharged into the river. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of micro flora in drain on...
