With the consideration algae´s biological function and excellent removals of nitrogen and phosphorus, Oscillatoria amoena was attached to the PE bundles in algae biofilm reactor to remove nitrogen and phosphorus the municipal wastewater. Flask experiment showed that the removals of nitrogen and phosphorus were reached to 92.1%, 100% respectively at ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus 10:1. The continuous running of the algae biofilm reactor using PE fiber bundles proved that the reactor was feasible and of cost-effective alternative to other secondary municipal wastewater treatment process.
