In present times, there is increasing potential of algal-based membrane bioreactors (MBRs) considering the removal hazardous and toxic contaminants from different wastewater sources. The article summarizes on various types that can be effectively removed using MBRs, including heavy metals emerging contaminants. selection criteria, advantages limitations algal species used in MBRs are also discussed. For optimal performance operating parameters viz. hydraulic retention time, organic loading rate, nutrient levels, light intensity duration essential. review further highlights efficient contaminants, biomass productivity, fouling as critical indicators. Various applications particularly treatment municipal industrial discharges, landfill leachate treatment, bioremediation contaminated sites, Finally, current identifies technological limitations, scale-up challenges, economic feasibility provides directions future researches. On whole, offer a sustainable worthwhile solution eradication harmful lethal effluent
