Treatment process of water and wastewater and also its reuse for domestic, agricultural or industrial purposes, helps to conserve and to enhance water in both quality & quantity. Green technologies nowadays provide good water quality without contributing to global warming. There are various conventional treatment technologies which are effective in removing various pollutant and impurities from wastewater but required many external sources, manpower and pumping system and also required more maintenance and operation cost. Due to many problems in conventional treatment technologies, Soil Biotechnology (SBT) was bring into operation to achieve pollution free environment for both municipal wastewater and industrial effluent. The present study reviews about the SBT that it is a system for water treatment which consists of soil, formulated granular filter media and selected culture of macro and micro organisms such as earthworms. The sludge is not formed at the end of the process and useful vermi compost is being generated.
