Because of the nature of bacteriophage to be harmless to humans, bacteriophages can be easily measured and seeded in high numbers in tracer experiments. They have been used to quantify the virus removal efficiency in the wastewater treatment process. In this study, we used MS-2 bacteriophage as an indicator of virus removal. The average removal, during the first experimental period, of poliovirus was 2.54 (0.6) log , which was higher than the average log removal of MS-2 bacteriophage . A comparable result was obtained in the repeat experiment, while the average log removal were 3.34 (0.11) and 2.1 (0.44), respectively. The removal efficiencies in our study are comparable with previously reported work
