Biotreatment of wastewater using aquatic invertebrates, Daphnia magna and Paramecium caudatum.

Abstract:

:A number of major changes have occurred over the past few years, which give cause for a re-examination of conventional wastewater treatment methods. Among these are growing problems of worldwide energy and food shortages and nutrients not removed by conventional secondary processes causing algal blooms and other problems in the receiving waters. The global increase in wastewater calls for innovative low cost technology approaches to its recycling. Biotreatment systems, utilizing living organisms are receiving growing attention since they are ecologically sound, cheap and applicable in areas without land constraints. Filter feeders (both invertebrates and vertebrates) are promising in this area since they can remove suspended organic matter and bacteria, even in the size range of microns. In the present study biological treatment of municipal wastewater using two invertebrates--Paramecium caudatum, a protozoan and Daphnia magna, a cladoceran was investigated. Analysis at pre-experimental and post-experimental stages revealed the potential of these species in abatement of water pollution. D. magna was more efficient than P. caudatum in laboratory-scale studies.
