The invention is directed to a sewage treatment system and method for treating sewage by microbes. The system includes and the method uses a settling tank with residual activated sludge and mixed liquor and an activated biofilm filter. Incoming sewage into the settling tank forms a settling tank liquor mixed liquor. Increments of the settling tank liquor mixed liquor are treated in the activated biofilm filter and returned to the settling tank where the treated mixed liquor improves the quality of the settling tank liquor mixed liquor in the settling tank. The process of treating and returning incremental quantities of the settling tank liquor mixed liquor continues over a Predetermined period of time after which the sewage is fully treated.

A Method of biologically treating an influent batch of sewage supplied to a settling tank containing residual treated liquor comprising the simultaneous steps of: mixing and diluting the influent sewage within the settling tank with the residual treated liquor contained in the settling tank to form settling tank liquor: continuously removing a fractional volume of said settling tank liquor and aerating the fractional volume for forming aerated settling tank liquor: biologically treating said fractional volume of aerated settling tank liquor with biofilm formed on submerged growth media, further biologically treating said fractional volume of aerated settling tank liquor by passing it through activated sludge in a suspended solids treatment region, and then further treating said fractional volume of aerated settling tank liquor with biofilm formed on second submerged growth media, all whereby a mixture of treated fractional volume of settling tank liquor and activated sludge are produced. returning the treated fractional volume of settling tank liquor and activated sludge to the settling tank for incrementally improving the quality of the settling tank liquor contained in the settling tank and for settling said activated sludge in the settling tank; and fully treating the influent batch of sewage by performing the aforementioned simultaneous steps for a predetermined period of time.
