The effects of pH on the advanced treatment of mid-stage pulping effluent with potassium ferrate were studied. Firstly, the effect of pH on the stability of the potassium ferrate solution was studied, which indicated that potassium ferrate was more stable in alkaline conditions than in acidic and neutral conditions, and the most stability was achieved at pH of 9-10. Then the effect of pH on the mid-stage pulping effluent treatment with potassium ferrate showed that the oxidation increased firstly and then decreased with the increase of the pH. The best treatment efficiency was at pH=4, under which COD removal efficiency reached 40%. The flocculation experiment was conducted using Fe3+ produced by the oxidation reaction as flocculant and PAC as extra flocculant and PAM as coagulant aid. Effect of pH on the flocculation process was studied, which showed that the flocculation effect first increased and then decreased with pH increasing. When pH was 9, COD removal efficiency reached 60%. The final effluent of COD concentration was less than 60mg/L, which met the requirements from the national first-order discharge standard.

The effects of the oxidation of potassium ferrate and the flocculation on cresol wastewater water were evaluated. This research aimed at determining the optimum conditions for the COD removal rate duing cresol wastewater water process. The results showed that potassium ferrate dosage of 1.1g/L, the pH value of 5, reaction time 15min, m-cresol initial concentration of 200 mg/L were the optimum conditions. Under the optimum conditions, COD removal rate was over 67%.

The industrial production of ethanol by fermentation using molasses as main material that generates large quantity of wastewater. This wastewater contains high levels of colour and chemical oxygen demand (COD), that may causes serious environmental pollution. Most available treatment processes in Vietnam rely on biological methods, which often fail to treat waste water up to discharge standard. As always, it was reported that quality of treated wastewater could not meet Vietnameses discharge standard. So, it is necessary to improve the treatment efficiency of whole technological process and therefore, supplemental physico-chemical treatment step before biodegradation stage should be the appropriate choice. This study was carried out to assess the effect of coagulation process on decolourization and COD removal in molasses-based ethanol production wastewater using inorganic coaglutant under laboratory conditions. The experimental results showed that the reductions of COD and colour with the utilization of Al2(SO4)3 at pH 9.5 were 83% and 70%, respectively. Mixture FeSO4 – Al2(SO4)3 at pH 8.5 reduced 82% of colour and 70% of COD. With the addition of Polyacrylamide (PAM), the reduction efficiencies of colour, COD and turbidity by FeSO4 – Al2(SO4)3 were 87%, 73.1% and 94.1% correspondingly. It was indicated that PAM significantly reduced the turbidity of wastewater, however it virtually did not increase the efficiencies of colour and COD reduction. Furthermore, the coagulation processes using PAM usually produces a mount of sludge which is hard to be deposited.

The effluent from activated sludge treatment of petroleum wastewater was treated with the aid of a ponding system using aquatic plants (Water Hyacinth, Chlorella, Reed). A good result was obtained in this study. Pilot pond system shows that the purification efficiency depends on the residence time of about 14 days. The petroleum removal waa 97-98 %, the COD removal was from 88-93 %. The dissolved oxygen amount (with Chlorella) increased from 0.7 mg/l to 9.8 mg/l and the pH increased from 6.9 to 8-8.6. The application of 3 step biological pond with the use of Water Hyacinth, Chlorella, Reeds for post treatment of petroleum wastewater is appropriate in Vietnam.

With increasing stress on existing wastewater treatment systems, it is necessary either to upgrade the treatment unit(s) or install an entirely new treatment plant. Obviously, the upgrading is preferred over the alternative of having a new system. Keeping this in view, in the present project, an attempt has been made to explore the possibility of upgrading existing facultative ponds using water hyacinth. Bench-scale batch studies were designed to compare the performance of hyacinth treatment system with facultative ponds. Investigations were carried out with synthetic wastewater having COD in the range of 32.5-1090 mg/l. The efficiency of COD removal in water hyacinth ponds was 15-20 percent more than the facultative ponds. Based on the results, an empirical model has been proposed for COD removal kinetics. In the second phase of the project a hyacinth pond was continuously operated. BOD, COD, TS, TN, TP, pH, and DO were regularly monitored. However, the DO of the effluent from hyacinth treatment system was considerably reduced. Effluent should be aerated before it is discharged. The results indicate that the existing facultative ponds can be stalked with water hyacinth to improve their performance as well as hyacinth treatment systems can be installed to support the conventional treatment.

Rettery wastewaters were treated in anaerobic and aerobic ponds. Anaerobic treatment yielded efficiencies of BOD5 and COD removal as low as 20%. The treatment process conducted under aerobic conditions in aerated and stabilizing ponds arranged in series took from 18 to 20 days and gave efficiencies of BOD5 and COD removal amounting to 90%. The experimental results were interpreted by virtue of the Eckenfelder equation. Excess activated sludge was subjected to aerobic stabilization in a separate tank. A new technology was suggested for the existing obsolete industrial treatment plant.

The kinetics of inactivation by potassium ferrate were studied using a bacteriophage, F-specific RNA-coliphage Qβ as a viral model. The inactivation appeared to be expressed by Hom's model in phosphate buffer at pH 6, 7, and 8. The rate of inactivation depended on pH; the lower pH, the faster inactivation observed. To consider the mechanism by which ferrate caused inactivation, the efficiency of inactivation was checked after ferrate decomposition in buffer. Effective inactivation following Hom's model was also observed after the complete decomposition of ferrate ion; however, the efficiency of that inactivation disappeared by the addition of sodium thiosulphate, suggesting that rather long-lived oxidative intermediate was generated by the decomposition of ferrate ion. The intermediate might take part in the inactivation.

Anaerobic reactors were operated in a semi-batch mode and fed with the dual substrates glucose (G) plus acetic acid (Ac) as primary organic sources to study the effect of sulfate on COD oxidation. With glucose, COD removal by methane formation was seriously inhibited, resulting in COD accumulation in the reactor. Although acetic acid can be consumed by some sulfate-reducing species, it was not a major substrate for sulfate reduction, but was largely responsible for methane formation in the anaerobic mixed culture used in this study. With dual substrates, extreme inhibition of methanogenesis did not occur as did with glucose alone. Instead, methanogens were found to work in harmony with acid formers as well as sulfate reducers to oxidise COD. Interestingly, from 12-hour monitoring, increased G/Ac COD ratios decreased COD removal rates as well as biogas production, but resulted in higher sulfate reduction. This suggests that there should be an optimal feed G/Ac COD ratio, for which removal of both organics could be maximised.

This study evaluates the characterization and treatability of 2,4-D production wastewaters. Wastewaters contain 20000-40000 mg/l COD, 17000-30000 mg/l chloride and pH is around 1.0. Chemical oxidation with hydrogen peroxide provided almost complete COD removal. The optimum conditions are 3:1 H2O2/COD oxidant dosage, 3000 mg/l Fe3+ as catalyst and pH 3. Partial oxidation at 0.5:1 H2O2//COD ratio is also effective providing 67% COD removal. A batch activated sludge system is used for biological treatability. Dilution is needed to maintain a tolerable chloride concentration which increases through COD removal. pH also increased during COD removal. 85% COD removal is obtained for the 50% dilution at an organic loading of 0.3 day‒1 on a COD basis. Completely and partially oxidized wastewaters are also treated in the activated sludge down to 30 mg/l BOD5.
