Description

". The corrected paragraph, therefore, reads as follows: Within the group of technologies applied to physical helminth egg removal (not inactivation) from wastewater, land-based post-treatment technologies such as sand filtration, wetlands and polishing ponds are reported to achieve helminth egg removal of 90%–99%, 100% and 100%, respectively [1,25,26]. In addition, Jimenez [19] reported that grit removal followed by a coagulation flocculation process in what is known as advanced primary treatment (APT), combined with an upflow sand filtration, reduced the amount of helminth eggs from 1.2 to 0.2 eggs·L
