Abstract

This paper includes the study of innovative methods for municipal wastewater treatment. It is based on the performed experiment and analysis of various scientific papers by other authors and researchers. The experimentally tested systems are described and the results obtained. The first system was a combination of anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) and aerobic membrane bioreactor (AeMBR), and the second was a combination of sequencing batch reactor (SBR) with microalgae Chlorella sorokiniana. Finally, the removal efficiency of each system was described and the systems were compared.
