Hospital waste water discharge contains considerable amounts of chemicals and microbial agents. It contains various potentially hazardous components including microbiological pathogens, hazardous chemical compounds, disinfectants, pharmaceuticals and radioactive isotopes. These chemicals are hard to remove by the simple wastewater treatment which can lead to an adverse effect on the environment and human health. Treatment of this kind of wastewater is more difficult than the municipal waste water. It also has a high strength of carbonaceous and nitrogenous waste. .

Hospital waste water needs a complete solution that will remove all the contaminants that will result to an effluent that is safe to be discharge. Treatment of this waste includes the pre-treatment for the removal of the solids like the syringe, gloves, plastics, and other paper based products. It needs a reliable biological treatment, polishing and sterilization of the treated water.
