Abstract
Drinking water is a very precious commodity for almost half the world. Most effective wastewater
management plants are essential to maximize the extremely small proportion of usable water that’s
available to us. Sustainable wastewater treatment, however, requires sound understanding of energy-
intensive processes. Above all, logical, nature friendly and undemanding operativeadministration of
treatment plants is vital in all areas. The level of contamination of domestic and industrial wastewater
differs greatly chemically, biologically and regarding solid matter. This makes reprocessing extremely
costly and time-consuming. However, microbes or enzyme system of wastewater treatment are energy
efficient and minimizing the resource consumptions. This article presents the scattered data on
wastewater treatment. It also compares the different latest techniques for treatment of wastewater.
Key words: Wastewater, Energy intensive process, Microbes, Enzymes
