processes such as activated sludge plants, trickling filters, rotating discs, submerged
aerated filters or membrane bioreactor plants. In the activated sludge process, the organic
matter in wastewater will be digested by aerobic microorganisms. This will then produce
a liquid that is comparatively free from suspended solids and organic material (Technical
Learning College, 2018). The second one is the trickling filters which is an automation
that treats wastewater by removing organic matters existing on it. This treatment system
is also dependent on aerobic bacteria that are attached to a medium which are then
utilized by the system (United States Environmental Protection Agency, 2000). Next is
the Rotating Biological Contractor which is a secondary treatment process that operates
biologically with the use of a rotating shaft surrounded by plastic media discs. In RBC
process, the microbial growth is passed through the wastewater. A slime layer is then
formed over the discs once the biological growth attaches to the media discs
biological aerated filters (BAFs) which are treatment units for wastewater that can provide
carbon oxidation, nitrification, and denitrification (Stensel et al., 1988; Pujol et al., 1994;
Rogalla et al., 1990; Peladan et al., 1996). High rate employs submerged media to
maintain biomass and filter suspended solids as they attach to the growth systems. In a
porous support media, the active biomass which is heavily populated will then become
attached and trapped. Because of the dense biomass and exclusion of a secondary
clarification, the process allows for a compact treatment. Lastly, the Membrane Bioreactor
(MBR) is an advanced technology for wastewater treatment that has been successfully
operated in an increasing locations around the world. With the stable increase in number
of operating MBR systems, its installations are also increasing in terms of scale. In the
past several years, MBR plants with a treatment capacity of around 5 to 10 ML/d have
been in operation and now there are under contract design capacities of about 45 ML/d.
constructed wetlands, the latter is more favorable in terms of its vigorous operations. Also,
