Such wastewater often contains toxic pollutants like cyanide, phenol, oil & grease, ammonia-N, and colored compounds. Conventional treatment methods, including chemical coagulation and biological processes, sometimes fail to fully remove these contaminants, thus prompting the need for more effective solutions.enThesis
