Abstract :
This paper presents the latest techniques developed in image processing that can be applied for wastewater quality detection and monitoring. The available techniques are analyzed under their characterization, advancements and benefits in the assessment of the levels of wastewater contamination and identifying the contaminants. It also outlines the primary global wastewater quality parameters that need to be controlled and monitored for any wastewater produced as a result of human activities.
