What is the role of microbes in sewage treatment plant?

Explanation

A sewage treatment plant is regarded as a giant microbial culture breading facility where the microbes are persuaded to work for our benefit. They metabolize the solid waste that passes through the treatment plant. The microbes oxidize the nutrietns and during this process they release energy in the form of heat and chemicals (phosphates,nitrates and sulfates) Gaseous by-product is also produced in the form of carbon dioxide.
