ABSTRACT:

The planet poses challenges with wastewater disposal as a consequence of large-scale industrialization and increased population densities and urbanized populations. Effluents generated daily from domestic and industrial activities are the major source of contamination in the receiving water supplies, which is a major burden on management of water quality. Pathogenic microorganisms, phosphorus and arsenic, hydrocarbons, heavy metals, endocrine disruptors and organic matter are some of these contaminants. The involvement of pathogenic microorganisms in water results in certain water-related diseases such as cholera, typhoid fever, diarrhea and others. The most important health risks correlated with contaminated waters involve diseases induced by microbes, viruses and protozoa. Human and livestock waste are the primary causes of these microbial toxins of wastewater. The existence of these excess quantities of phosphorus and nitrogen may also contribute to the eutrophication of bodies of water and establish environmental conditions that facilitate the development of cyanobacteria generating toxins. Chronic exposure to some of these species’ pollutants can contribute to several other diseases. Furthermore, the possibility of nonbiodegradable and recalcitrant toxins in water resides in their potential to survive for a long time in natural environments and their capacity in the biological food supply chain at successive stages. These detrimental consequences include a variety of procedures for the preparation before discharge into obtaining water sources with drainage effluent. Consequently, this study sought to offer an overview into the key pathogens and the different disposal strategies of waste water effluents.
