In this regard, the discharge of municipal sewage is increasing year by year, which is a worrying situation for living beings as well as the environment. In fact, wastewater is an important by-product of modern industry and contributes significantly to polluting the aquatic environment. Its sources are based on many industries and anthropogenic pollutants. The nature of wastewater is organic and inorganic.
