Abstract Technological studies of mixture of communal and industrial waste water treatment on a pilot ‐ scale are described in the paper. Treatment of waste waters mixture was carried out in the following stages: coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, and sorption. After pre ‐treatment and the removal of the suspension, waste water was directed on 3 columns filled with granular activated carbon. Waste water was oxygenated to obtain biological activity on carbon surface. Parameters of sorptive columns work in both one ‐ stage and total system, and quantitative and qualitative studies of microorganisms forming a biological membrane are described.
