In this study the removal of Mn (II) ions from wastewater using magnetite nanomaterial was investigated. Some factors influencing the wastewater treatment process were studied such as: treatment time, pH and the concentration of Mn (II) ions from wastewater. The results showed that using magnetite nanomaterial adsorbent lead to a wastewater treatment efficiency higher than 97%. Langmuir and Freundlich models were applied to describe the adsorption process. The correlation coefficients (R2) showed that both models are applicable to the experimental data obtained.

This study was conducted to secure the sustainability of biogas plants for generating resources from food waste (FW) leachates, which are prohibited from marine dumping and have been obligated to be completely treated on land since 2013 in South Korea. The aim of this study is to reduce the nitrogen load of the treatment process while producing bio-methanol using digested FW leachate diverted into wastewater treatment plants. By using biogas in conditions where methylobacter (M. marinus 88.2%) with strong tolerance to highly chlorinated FW leachate dominated, 3.82 mM of methanol production and 56.1% of total nitrogen (TN) removal were possible. Therefore, the proposed method can contribute to improving the treatment efficiency by accommodating twice the current carried-in FW leachate amount based on TN or by significantly reducing the nitrogen load in the subsequent wastewater treatment process. Moreover, the produced methanol can be an effective alternative for carbon source supply for denitrification in the subsequent process.
