Aluminium Dross

Polymerised aluminium ferric sulphate (PAFS) was prepared from aluminium dross as a coagulant in wastewater treatment. The effects of leaching time, leaching temperature, and sulfuric acid concentrations on the turbidity removal of the wastewater were investigated, and the optimum conditions were determined using response surface methodology. The results showed that the optimum PAFS preparation conditions were at a leaching time of 60 minutes, a leaching temperature of 65°C, and a sulfuric acid concentration of 1 mol/L. Furthermore, experiments were performed to investigate the effect of coagulant dosages using the PAFS prepared under the optimum leaching conditions, settling time and initial pH of the wastewater on the turbidity removal efficiency. As a result, it was found that the optimum coagulation conditions for PAFS coagulants were at a settling time of 15 minutes, coagulant dosage of 0.5g, and raw water pH 8. Under these optimum conditions, the turbidity removal efficiency of the wastewater was 91.45%. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of aluminium dross utilisation as a coagulant agent for wastewater treatment. Therefore, it can be concluded that PAFS prepared by leaching metal oxides from aluminium dross is an effective wastewater coagulant.

Based on the concept of “waste control by waste”, a kind of inorganic polymeric flocculants which was called Polysilicate Aluminium Ferric (PSFA) was made from bentonite, wastewater containing Al3+, wastewater containing Fe3+ and sulfuric acid under normal temperature conditions, and it was adopted to treat banknote printing wastewater. The experiment results revealed that the maximal Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) removal efficiency of 95.52% with residual COD of 3571mg/L and color removal efficiency of 96% with residual color of 40 times could be achieved at the optimal dosage of 48g/L wastewater, a number of big and dense alum flocs appeared quite fast, the flocs and water could be obviously separated in a short time, the pH of coagulating effluent of which color was light green was about 4.01, the effects of coagulation were very well.

The performance of the primary anaerobic pond at the Alsamra Wastewater Treatment Plant in Jordan was monitored over 48 months. Overall averages for the removal efficiencies of BOD5, COD and suspended solids were 53%, 53% and 74%, respectively. An improvement in removal efficiency with increase in pond water temperature was demonstrated. A model, which takes into account the variability of raw wastewater at different locations, has been developed to describe the performance of a primary anaerobic pond in terms of a settleability ratio for the raw wastewater. The model has been verified by illustrating the high correlation between actual and predicted pond performance.

Dyestuff Wastewater

Abstract The activated sludge (AS) process is widely applied in dyestuff wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs); however, the nitrogen removal efficiency is relatively low and the effluent does not meet the indirect discharge standards before being discharged into the industrial park's WWTP. Hence it is necessary to upgrade the WWTP with more advanced technologies. Moving bed biofilm processes with suspended carriers in an aerobic tank are promising methods due to enhanced nitrification and denitrification. Herein, a pilot-scale integrated free-floating biofilm and activated sludge (IFFAS) process was employed to investigate the feasibility of enhancing nitrogen removal efficiency at different hydraulic retention times (HRTs). The results showed that the effluent chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonium nitrate (NH4+-N) and total nitrogen (TN) concentrations of the IFFAS process were significantly lower than those of the AS process, and could meet the indirect discharge standards. PCR-DGGE and FISH results indicated that more nitrifiers and denitrifiers co-existed in the IFFAS system, promoting simultaneous nitrification and denitrification. Based on the pilot results, the IFFAS process was used to upgrade the full-scale AS process, and the effluent COD, NH4+-N and TN of the IFFAS process were 91–291 mg/L, 10.6–28.7 mg/L and 18.9–48.6 mg/L, stably meeting the indirect discharge standards and demonstrating the advantages of IFFAS in dyestuff wastewater treatment.

A combined process of biological wriggle bed and ozone biological aerated filter was utilized to treat textile wastewater. Results showed that COD removal efficiency was almost 90.4%. The average effluent COD was 85.87 mg/L. The effluent colority was 64-32 times. This study indicated that the combined process is potentially useful for treating textile wastewater.

The aim of this study is to investigate the contaminant removal efficiency in wastewater when disposed by carbon fiber ecological grass. The paper analyzed the TN, TP, CODMn, NH4+-N and SS removal efficiency when used different dosage of carbon fiber ecological grass. The research results indicated that the contaminant removal efficiency at pH=8 is higher than pH=6, 7 and 9. When DO between 5.6 and 8, the TN, TP and NH4+-N removal efficiency has a highest level, the removal efficiency is 83.91%, 68.16% and 83.3% respectively. When DO between 8.1 and 10.7, the CODMn removal efficiency has a highest level, the removal efficiency is 57.93%. The stirring rate is important to the contaminant adsorption and removal. Consequently, selecting carbon fiber ecological grass in wastewater treatment is a good choice.
