Abstract
|
|
|
|
The current study demonstrates the ability of the marine cyanobacterium Oscillatoria willei BDU130511 to disinfect raw sewage. Within a holding time of 3 h under laboratory conditions, the organism drastically reduced in the total bacterial and coliform counts at various pH levels, in both unbuffered and buffered sewage, thereby suggesting a potential role for cyanobacteria in wastewater treatment.
