Electrostatic interactions between bacterial surfaces, extracellular polymers (ECP) and polyvalent metal ions are important in activated sludge flocculation. An indirect study of these mechanisms was done by adding different concentrations of EDTA to activated sludge samples from 6 Swedish wastewater treatment plants. The effects on sludge properties were studied with sedimentation and filtration tests as well as analysis of released extracellular polymers. EDTA had a significant effect on sedimentation velocity in all investigated sludges. This shows that charged polymers are important for the properties of the floc surfaces and in building up the sludge macroflocs. The effect on filtration resistance where the bulk properties of the primary flocs are more important varied considerably for the different sludges. Thus, both electrostatic and other interactions are involved to a varying extent in building up the primary flocs in the sludges investigated. Variations in sedimentation velocity, residual turbidity, filtration resistance and release of ECP with variations in EDTA concentrations could be explained by effects of polyvalent metal ions on ECP binding and conformation.

This paper presents the results of studies on the use of bentonite from the Taganskoye field for purification of mine water from the mining industry from heavy metal ions (MI). It has been established that the use of the thermo-acid-activated form of bentonite clay allows the removal of MI Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+ions from mine water by 99.6, 94.7, 98.9, 99.5 %, respectively, which ensures that the maximum permissible concentration of fishery is achieved at selected optimal conditions that were identified on the basis of an active experiment. A comparative analysis of the presented results of mass spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy shows that they are valid and do not contradict the obtained experimental data on the composition of exchange cations and structural characteristics in ultrafine mineral phases of bentonite clay samples of natural and thermo-acid activated forms It has been established that during acid activation of bentonite clays, the structure of montmorillonite is retained upon extraction of up to 80 % of magnesium, iron, and aluminum ions and is destroyed only upon their almost complete extraction.

Although biosorption for reclaiming single precious metal was frequently reported, the actual subsistent adsorptive competition among different metal ions sometimes shows diverging reinforcement or prohibition for different species. This study tries to screen bacteria that are able to absorb certain precious metals with high selectivity under competitive conditions. The activated sludge was cultivated from enrichment by magnetotactic bacteria medium proposed by Blakemore. Then four microbes, microaerobic bacteria(A) acclimated micro-aerobic bacteria (B), anaerobic bacteria(C) and acclimated anaerobic bacteria(D) were obtained for the following adsorption experiments. The four microbes have high removal efficiency of Au3+ both in its unitary and Au3+-Cu2+binary system. The microaerobic bacteria (B) are good metal catchers and carriers for the uptake of gold in aquatic solution with coexistence of copper. In Pd2+-Cu2+system, there is a collaborative adsorption effect, especially on (B).
