AbstractPhysical and chemical methods have been developed for water and wastewater treatments. Adsorption is an attractive method due to its simplicity and low cost, and it has been widely employed in industrial treatment. In advanced schemes, chemical oxidation and photocatalytic oxidation have been recognized as effective methods for wastewater-containing organic compounds. The use of magnetic iron oxide in these methods has received much attention. Magnetic iron oxide nanocomposite adsorbents have been recognized as favorable materials due to their stability, high adsorption capacities, and recoverability, compared to conventional sorbents. Magnetic iron oxide nanocomposites have also been reported to be effective in photocatalytic and chemical oxidation processes. The current review has presented recent developments in techniques using magnetic iron oxide nanocomposites for water treatment applications. The review highlights the synthesis method and compares modifications for adsorbent, photocatalytic oxidation, and chemical oxidation processes. Future prospects for the use of nanocomposites have been presented.

Today, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is considered as a key and effective method for environment preservation from pollutions. In this study , advanced photochemical oxidation processes using O3/H2O2 and O3/H2O2/UV systems were investigated batch photolytic reactor in lab-scale for the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA). In ozone generator source, air, as of the initial instrument feed, changes to ozone after electrical action and reaction. The UV irradiation source was a medium-pressure mercury lamp 300 W that was immerse in the wastewater solution with in 1.5 liter volume reactor. The reaction was influenced by the pH, the input concentration of H2O2, the input concentration of BPA, ozone dosage, chemical oxidation demand (COD) and UV irradiation time. Results showed that at initial bisphenol A concentration of 100 mg/l will completely degrade after 60 minutes by using O3/H2O2 in the pH range from 9.8 to 10 and by adding UV, it will happen in less than 36 minutes in the pH range of 3 to 10. The O3/H2O2/UV process reduced COD to 75 percents.

AbstractThe presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments is a major concern of risks associated with the aquatic ecosystems through bioaccumulation in food chains. To minimize the ecological risks due to contaminated sediments, processes that can degrade the sorbed PAHs are urgently needed. The present study aims at assessing the treatment efficiency of several chemical oxidation processes using potassium permanganate (KMnO

Leachate is created while water penetrates through the waste in a landfill, carrying some forms of pollutants. The goal of this chapter is the introduction to leachate treatment. Biological, physical, and chemical treatments of leachate are the most common methods. The biological techniques in leachate treatment are studied. The physical-chemical ways for landfill leachate treatment like chemical precipitation, chemical oxidation, coagulation–flocculation, membrane filtration, ion exchange, adsorption and electrochemical treatment are studied. The landfill leachate properties, technical applicability and constraints, effluent discharge alternatives, cost-effectiveness, regulatory requirements and environmental impact are important factors for selection of the most suitable treatment technique for landfill leachate treatment.

Conventional water/wastewater treatment methods are incapable of removing the majority of Emerging Contaminants (ECs) and a large amount of them and their metabolites are ultimately released to the aquatic environment or drinking water distribution networks. Recently, nanofiltration, a high pressure membrane filtration process, has shown to be superior to other conventional filtration methods, in terms of effluent quality, easy operation and maintenance procedures, low cost, and small required operational space. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the most relevant works available in literature reporting the use of nanofiltration for the removal of emerging contaminants from water and wastewater. The fundamental knowledge of nanofiltration such as separation mechanisms, characterization of nanofiltration membranes, and predictive modeling has also been introduced. The literature review has shown that nanofiltration is a promising tool to treat ECs in environmental cleaning and water purification processes.
