This review examines advanced methods for treating virus-contaminated water, focusing on biochemical, membrane, and disinfection processes. Combining these technologies offers a proactive strategy against waterborne diseases and future virus outbreaks.

Area of Science:

Environmental Science
Water Treatment Technologies
Virology

Background:

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the urgent need for effective virus detection and treatment, especially in aqueous environments.
Efficient virus treatment in water and wastewater is a critical public health challenge.
Existing reviews lack comprehensive analysis of combined treatment processes considering economic and manufacturing factors.

Purpose of the Study:

To critically review and classify advanced biochemical, membrane-based, and disinfection processes for treating virus-contaminated water.
To analyze the functions of individual and combined/multi-stage processes, including manufacturing and economic parameters.
To discuss challenges and opportunities in synergistically combining these technologies for enhanced virus removal.

Keywords:

Disinfection Membrane Virus removal Wastewater treatment
