- Abstract
Pharmaceutical contaminants are difficult to remove with standard treatment techniques and are one of the current problems in wastewater treatment. These bioactive substances are considered emerging pollutants due to their persistence and potential impact on aquatic ecosystems. They will continue to function even in small amounts. Efficient wastewater treatment methods are needed to address this issue. As a result, the efforts to develop more efficient wastewater treatment methods have recently intensified. Fluidized bed reactors offer a special opportunity for efficient treatment of wastewater containing recalcitrant pollutants. This article discussed FBBR and covered its advantages, disadvantages, modifications, and applications. Additionally, the FBBR design was briefly discussed.
