Overpopulation, industrialization, and unregulated discharge result in the occurrence of the contaminants in water bodies, which calls for treatment technologies. Biological wastewater treatment is a technology where the main objective is to transform dissolved and particulate biodegradable constituents into acceptable end products. Biological treatment technologies are cost-effective, efficient, and many of them offer water reclamation qualities. Many pieces of research have been made to improve the removal of contaminants, trace compounds, operating conditions, and large-scale application. This chapter delivers an overview of biological wastewater treatment systems and highlights the future potential.
