Abstract The iron oxychloride/pillared montmorillonite (FeOCl/MMT) catalyst was prepared by wet impregnation method and solid melting method. Various characterization techniques were used to analyze the microscopic morphology and structure of a series of catalysts. Moreover, the catalysts were used to treat magenta simulated dye wastewater through catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) degradation. The magenta removal rate and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate of the magenta simulated dye wastewater were used to evaluate the catalytic performance of the catalyst, and the optimal catalyst preparation conditions were selected. The results showed that the solid melting method was more favorable to the preparation of the catalyst, and the COD removal rate of wastewater can reach 70.8% when the FeOCl load was 3%. Moreover, 96.2% of the magenta in the solution has been removed. The COD removal rate of the magenta wastewater decreased by only 12.4% after the catalyst was repeatedly used six times, indicating that the catalyst has good activity and stability. The Fermi equation can simulate the reaction process of the catalyst treating magenta wastewater at high temperature.

In the presence of acetic acid, the effects of pH, processing time, addition of Fe2+ and H2O2 on dye wastewater treatment were studied. Experimental results showed that in the presence of acetic acid, when the pH value was 4, the processing time was 30.0min, addition of ferrous sulfate was 4.8g/L, and addition of hydrogen peroxide was 56mL/L, the treatment effect was the best, COD removal rate reached 51.0%. Further studied of the effect of the presence of acetic acid on Fenton’s oxidation of dye wastewater, the results showed that without of acetic acid, the COD removal rate was higher than that with acetic acid. And the effect of Fenton's reagent on oxidation of dye substances was interfered by the presence of acetic acid.

The environment protection has been the starting point for the development of new technologies, which allow the control of highly toxic substances present in the effluents of various industries, whose removal is not feasible by conventional methods. In this research, mixed oxide catalysts Mn and Cu in different molar ratios were prepared from the autocombustion method and characterized by XRD, XRF, TPR-H2, and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms. The solids were evaluated in the catalytic wet peroxide oxidation of crystal violet (CV) with mild conditions of reaction: 25 °C, normal pressure, airflow of 2 mL/min, and H2O2 0.1 M (2 mL/h). The experimental results indicated degradations of 100% of CV, conversion of the total organic carbon (TOC) of 74%, and elimination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 71% in 90 min of reaction. Additionally, the selectivity was monitored by CG-MS, finding that there was almost complete mineralization in a short reaction time, generating intermediate products such as carboxylic acids, alcohols, and amines that do not cause a serious risk to the environment. The Mn–Cu catalyst with molar ratios of 1:2 was the most promising catalyst, displaying a cooperative effect between the two metals, and demonstrating the importance of the redox properties for the elimination of CV dye in wastewater.

The clomazone herbicide wastewater was treated using a combined technology composed of electrochemical catalytic oxidation and biological contact degradation. A new type of electrochemical reactor was fabricated and a Ti/SnO2 electrode was chosen as the anode in electrochemical-oxidation reactor and stainless steel as the cathode. Ceramic rings loaded with SnO2 were used as three-dimensional electrodes forming a packed bed. The operation parameters that might influence the degradation of organic contaminants in the clomazone wastewater were optimized. When the cell voltage was set at 30 V and the volume of particle electrodes was designed as two-thirds of the volume of the total reactor bed, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate could reach 82% after 120 min electrolysis, and the ratio of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD)/COD of wastewater increased from 0.12 to 0.38. After 12 h degradation with biological contact oxidation, the total COD removal rate of the combined technology reached 95%, and effluent COD was below 120 mg/L. The results demonstrated that this electrocatalytic oxidation method can be used as a pretreatment for refractory organic wastewater before biological treatment.

Hydrogen-producing acetogens (HPA) have a transitional role in anaerobic wastewater treatment. Thus, bioaugmentation with HPA cultures can enhance the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency and CH4yield of anaerobic wastewater treatment. Cultures with high degradation capacities for propionic acid and butyric acid were obtained through continuous subculture in enrichment medium and were designated as Z08 and Z12. Bioaugmentation with Z08 and Z12 increased CH4production by glucose removal to 1.58. Bioaugmentation with Z08 and Z12 increased the COD removal rate in molasses wastewater from 71.60% to 85.84%. The specific H2and CH4yields from COD removal increased by factors of 1.54 and 1.63, respectively. Results show that bioaugmentation with HPA-dominated cultures can improve CH4production from COD removal. Furthermore, hydrogen-producing acetogenesis was identified as the rate-limiting step in anaerobic wastewater treatment.

Wastewater high in phenolic content (948 mg/l) and dissolved solids (5.4 g/l) had to be treated to remove most of the organic material and toxic compounds. A laboratory scale High Pressure (3 bar) Bioreactor (HPB) was developed and operated to treat the wastewater using a ceramic ultra filtration membrane as biomass separator. The performance of the system was compared to a normal activated sludge plant (ASP) using sludge settling for separation. The HPB was more stable than the ASP, which twice became unstable with a resulting biomass loss. Both reactors removed 90% of the chemical oxygen demand (COD) loading, reducing the phenol concentration below 20 mg/l. The maximum COD removal rate of the HPB was 28 kg/m3.d compared to 15 kg/m3.d of the ASP, while the HPB achieved 16-32 times better oxygen transfer than the ASP. It was concluded that the HPB was the preferred treatment system compared to the ASP, when treating high strength inhibitory wastewaters, due to its stable operating performance and high COD removal rate.

Abstract The SNC multiplate reactor (1,200 L) has been developed and tested to determine chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal, nutrient requirement, and gas production from the anaerobic treatment of effluents generated at the Agropur (Notre Dame-du-Bon-Conseil, Quebec) and Nutrinor cheese dairies (Chambord, Quebec). At the Agropur plant, wastewater (3,000 mg/L COD) was treated the best at a retention time of 12 h. Using this retention time, effluents containing whey with organic loads of 10.2 to 41.6 kg COD/m3/day could be treated at a 84% COD removal rate. When the reactor was subjected to shock by increasing the organic load suddenly from 8.9 to 31 kg COD/m3/day, the total COD removal decreased to 72% and then returned to 86% after 7 days. Hydrology tests indicated that the reactor functions as a series of completely mixed stirred tanks. At Nutrinor, using a 12-h retention time and diluted whey permeate (20,000 mg/L COD), total COD removal was 86% and gas production was 12.0 m3/m3/day for a loading of 36.5 kg COD/m3/day. Nutrient supplementation was not required. For experiments performed with different proportions of wastewater (2,000 mg/L COD) to whey permeate (70,000 mg/L COD) results of 89% total and 93% soluble COD removal with a gas production of 11 m3/m3/day for a loading of 25 kg COD/m3/day were obtained. Retention times were varied from 18 to 60 h to correspond to initial CODs of 20,000 to 70,000 mg/L. In conclusion, this reactor functions in a superior manner to other published anaerobic treatment systems.
