**7. Conclusion**

There has been a significant expansion that proved pathogenic viruses in the wastewater and/or treatment plants, including the novel coronavirus. Understanding the destiny of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater treatment plants has arisen as an issue of extreme importance. The epidemiological surveillance of these viruses in wastewater would help to prevent the spread of the viral disease while producing safe treated water for reuse. Thus, the performance of various treatment procedures is now being explored to reduce viral disease outbreaks.

Potential dangers of SARS-CoV-2 transmission through water infrastructure are a major source of concern in the environmental setting, and detection and eradication will play a key role in limiting the virus's spread in the population. To comprehend the early warning of outbreaks and to effectively inactivate before emerging, the virus must be a regular criterion for routine monitoring with other quality metrics with environmental samples. A regulatory framework that incorporates environmental systems will help to protect the global community from future outbreaks and transmissions.
