being absorbed by microorganisms for their populace improvement. This consequently increases the degradation potential of earthworms (Edwards and Fletcher
1988). The treated sludge with vermifiltration had a high rate of stabilization
dependent on elemental analysis. This indicates that earthworms assist to make the
proficiency and soundness of vermifiltration performance certain for the treatment of
excess sludge that is an unavoidable by-product of the aerobic organic wastewater
treatment technique (Liu et al. 2012).
