  By Vignesh M., Muhammed Aamir Suhail, Manikandan C., Narendran M.S., Sarath B., Dinesh S.

  Abstract: This study presents an innovative approach to decentralized domestic sewage treatment by integrating Agave sisalana fibers as the core functional component within a composite filtration system. The filtration column was constructed using a vertical 1:3:1 layered configuration comprising silica sand (top), Agave sisalana fibers (middle), and activated carbon (bottom). Comprehensive experimental analyses were conducted to evaluate the system’s efficacy in removing key water quality parameters, including turbidity, total solids (TS), …
