you should start by looking up sewer lagoon on google, a lot of small waste water treatment plants operate a similar scheme. An anaerobic chamber first, then sedimentation, then filtration, then aeration, secondary filtration then disinfection and release.

I have been taking care of the Baptistery in the Church and recently I got algae started ,it was a mess. My son works in a nursery in the D.C. area. I checked with him and he told me to check on Barley straw. I found it on the Internet and tried some , Totally non toxic and it has worked fine.
Good luck
