A State-of-the-Art Review on SARS-CoV-2 Virus Removal Using Different Wastewater Treatment Strategies

In addition to the numerous health effects caused by COVID-19 pandemic, scientific community has considered other emerging such as water-related impacts worthy of deep investigation. this regard, transmission cycles SARS-CoV-2 virus from fecal, vomiting, and sputum routes sewage have led authorities diagnose, prevent, use novel wastewater treatment technologies. Once they enter gastrointestinal canal a healthy person, viral particles can infect via nominal amount Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) present in alimentary epithelial cell surfaces further lung, heart, kidney, organs. The current review highlights detection, status, fate facilities water bodies. Besides, it addresses potential processes cope with various viruses, especially SARS-CoV-2. Many manage contaminated solid wastes over long term, including membrane technologies, disinfectants, UV-light advanced oxidation methods like photocatalysis, ozonation, hydrogen peroxide, nanomaterials, algae. Future work must focus on implementing selected actions for released hospitals self-quarantine centers better regulate future waves
