Biofilm-based techniques have been used for decades in wastewater treatment plants. Many ideas have been made to explain the process, such as condensed bacteria in biofilm, higher enzyme efficiency and absorption by biofilm. I am not sure whether those are "assumptions" or well-studied mechanisms. I just couldn't find any papers studying the details of mechanism of how biofilm remove organic matters.
