Title: Application of Bioaugmentation in Wastewater Treatment:review and Prospects
Abstract: Biological wastewater treatment methods have been extensively applied in the treatment of municipal wastewater and industrial wastewater for its low cost,high efficiency,easy operation and free of secondary pollution when compared with the physical and chemical methods.Along with development of the modern compound industry,a variety of xenobiotics enter the municipal wastewater and the industrial wastewater,which poses great challenge to the conventional biological wastewater treatment.Therefore,application of bioaugmentation with the delivery of microbial agent to enhance the efficiency and the stability of the biological wastewater treatment processes received comprehensive concerns among researchers across the world.The present paper reviewed the mechanisms,efficiency and the status quo of bioaugmentaion in the wastewater treatment field.The prospects of bioaugmentation were also presented.It was anticipated that this paper would provide useful guidance for the development of microbial agent and the application of bioaugmentatation.
