The vermifiltration (VF) technology has gained significant attention as a green alternative for remediating domestic and industrial wastewater over the last few decades. Of late, the implementation of various modifications to the orthodox VF technology, including tweaks in the design and operation of the vermifilters, has been portrayed in the available literature. However, owing to the scatteredness of the available information, the knowledge regarding the execution of the modified vermifilters is still inadequate. Hence, an effort has been made to comprehensively overview the innovative strategies and techniques adopted to improve the organic and nutrient removal potential of the VFs from wastewater. In addition, future perspectives have been recognized to design more efficient and sustainable VFs. This review explores more of such novel tactics to improve the performance of the VF technology regarding organic and nutrient removal from wastewater. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Innovative strategies and techniques implemented to VF technology were comprehensively overviewed. Design modification and advantages of each innovation were highlighted. The pollutant removal performance of every modification was emphasized. Modified vermifilters were better than the conventional vermifilters in terms of organic and nutrient removal from the wastewater
