Based on the problem of industrial wastewater of 4-Toluene Sulfonic Acid (4-TSA) with characteristics of high concentration and high toxicity, also low treatment efficiency by common biological treatment , this study was used aerobic biological fluidized bed (ABFB) to analyze the impact of 4-TSA treatment by changing water load chemical oxygen demand (COD), aeration amount, and pH value of input water, and so on technological parameters. The result showed that the average degradation rate of 4-TSA in wastewater can researched to 96.9% under condition of reactor steadily running, HRT=9 h, temperature 25°C, pH=8.0, ORP-141~-93 mV,DO 3.5~8.72 mg/L, the inflow water 4-TSA concentration 600 mg/L, aerobic amount 210 L/h. Therefore, the best aerobic amount to treat wastewater contained 4-TSA is 210 L/h in aerobic biological fluidized bed. The degradation rate of 4-TSA is decreased as the increasing of water load. The scanning electronic microscope (SEM) indicated that the bacillus is the mainly part on the biological carrier, suspended sludge is composed by aurous and bacillus.

In this study, it was carried out by designing PH, soil fertilization content, humidity and mutagenic bacteria DX1 inoculation concentration of orthogonal experiment to research chlorpyrifos degradation rate in the soil, which was affected by mutagenic bacteria DX1 in the soil environment. SPSS software was taken visualized analysis and variance analysis to evaluate the impact of different levels of the test results, to determine the factors which had significant impact on the experimental results. It showed that the best environmental factors of chlorpyrifos degradation rate in soil were the pH 7, organic fertilizer content 5mg/kg, the soil moisture 70%, inoculation volume 50ml/kg. The pH value and inoculation volume had a significant impact on chlorpyrifos degradation rate in soil; the soil humidity had little effect and the organic fertilizer content had almost no effect.

This study aims to enhance the bacteria’s ability to degrade phenol by exploring the phenol-degrading capability of hybrid strains and immobilized cells. Two phenol-degradation strains named as A1 and A2 were isolated respectively.The StrainA1 was identified as Burkholderia, while strain A2 was found to be Bacillus cereuswere. In addition, conditions including inoculum strains , pH value, temperature and dissolved oxygen were tested. . It was shown that: (1)Hybrid strains ( mixed A1 with A2) was better than single strain(A1 or A2) in degrading phenol because of the Synergistic effect. It can completely degraded phenol at the concentration of 300mg/ L, 500mg / L, 700mg / L within 12h, 24h, 48h respectively. (2) The optimum environmental conditions of phenol degradation for hybrid strains culture is 35°C, pH is 7.0, the inoculum strains is 10%. (3) It is beneficial to the degradation of phenol, when the speed of the shaker was improved. (4) Phenol-degradation rate and the tolerance of high concentration of phenol were significantly improved when the A1 and A2 were mixed immoblized.

Abstract This work aimed to degrade high-concentration p-nitrophenol (PNP) by Fenton oxidation. We studied various reaction parameters during Fenton oxidation, such as the iron dosage (as Fe2+), the initial concentration and temperature of PNP, and the dosage of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), especially the influence of temperature on the PNP degradation rate and degree. Under the addition of the same molar ratio of H2O2/Fe2+ and H2O2 dosage according to the theoretical stoichiometry, the PNP degradation rate and the removal rate of total organic carbon (TOC) increased significantly with the increase in the initial PNP concentration. Moreover, the oxidative degradation effect was significantly affected by temperature. The increased reaction temperature not only significantly reduced the Fe2+ dosage, but also greatly promoted the removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and TOC, and improved the utilization efficiency of H2O2. For example, when the initial concentration of PNP was 4,000 mg·L−1, and the dosage of Fe2+ was 109 mg·L−1 (H2O2/Fe2+ = 200), the removal rates of COD and TOC at 85 °C reached 95% and 71% respectively. Both were higher than the 93% COD removal rate and 44% TOC removal rate when the dosage of Fe2+ was 1,092 mg·L−1 (H2O2/Fe2+ = 20) at room temperature.

In order to understanding of the fate and transport of TiO2 nanoparticles (Nps) in the water treatment process, this study focused on the impact of humic acid (HA) on the aggregation and charge behavior of TiO2 Nps, and investigated the removability of TiO2 Nps stabilized by HA during the coagulation process. Malvern Zetasizer nanoZS measured the changes of size and zeta potential of HA capped TiO2 Nps (HA-TiO2). Uv-vis spectrometer examined the aggregation behavior of TiO2 and HA-TiO2 NPs at different pH value. Jar tests were conducted to evaluate the removal efficiency of TiO2 NPs. HA adsorbed on the surface of TiO2 Nps could decrease the zeta potential values and enhance the stability of TiO2 Nps. TiO2 Nps could be effectively removed by aluminum sulfate (AS) under favorable condition. HA could influence the removal of TiO2 Nps during the coagulation processes. Low concentration of HA rejected the removal efficiency of TiO2 Nps, however, high concentration of HA promoted removing effectiveness.

The anaerobic treatability of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) wastewater in a novel, rapid mass-transfer fluidized bed reactor using brick particles as porous carrier materials was investigated. The reactor operation was stable after a short 34 day start-up period, with chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency between 65 and 75%, terephthalate (TA) removal efficiency between 60% and 70%, and system organic loading rate (OLR) increasing from 7.37 to 18.52 kg COD/m3 d. The results demonstrate that the reactor is very efficient, and requires a low hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 8 h to remove both TA and COD from the high-concentration PTA wastewater. The system also has high resistance capacity to varied OLR.

Electroplating plant sewage is characterized by high concentration of metals, suspended solids, acids, alkalis and other contaminants. The irregular inflows, low pH values and specific sewage composition complicate its treatment. The main treatment methods include chemical precipitation, ion exchange, chemical and electrochemical oxidation, flotation, filtration and membrane separation. The paper proposes a possible variant of wastewater treatment in a small electroplating plant. The proposed flow diagram includes sedimentation of polluting substances with sodium hydroxide and oxidation with anolyte. The method results in a 88.9 % reduction in chemical oxygen demand, 99.5 % reduction in suspended solids, 99.8 % reduction in iron, 95.7 % reduction in surfactants, and 99.9 % reduction in copper ions. The pH value of the treated water is 7.8 and matches the value of a slightly alkaline environment.

Abstract Porewater samples from the upper Qu’Appelle River basin in Saskatchewan, Canada, were analyzed to obtain metal, inorganic ligand and amino add profiles. These data were used to compute the aqueous speciation of the metals in each porewater using the computer program GEOCHEM-PC. The porewaters were classified as slightly to moderately saline. Metal concentrations reflected both the geology of the drainage basin and the impact of anthropogenic activities. Whereas K and Na were present almost entirely as the free aquo ions, carbonate equilibria dominated the speciation of Ca. Mg and Mn (the predominant metal ligand species were of the type MCO3 (s). MCO30. and MHCO3+). Trace metal concentrations were generally within the ranges reported for non-polluted freshwater systems. Whereas the speciation of the trace metals Cr(III) and Co(II) was dominated by carbonate equilibria, Hg(II)-, Zn(II)- and Fe(II)-speciation was dominated by hydroxy-metal complexes of the type M(OH)+ and M(OH)2°. The speciation of Fe(III) was dominated by Fe(OH)3 (s). In porewaters with high chloride concentrations (> 2 mM), however, significant amounts of Hg(II) were bound as HgCl20 and HgClOH0. The aqueous speciation of Al was dominated by Al(OH)4− and Al2Si2O4(OH)6 (s). Total concentrations of dissolved free amino acids varied from 15.21 to 25.17 umole L−1. The most important metal scavenging amino acids were histidine (due to high stability constants for the metal-histidine complexes) and tryptophan (due to its relatively high concentration in the porewaters. i.e., 5.96 to 7.73 umole L−1). Secondary concentrations of various trace metal-amino add complexes were computed for all the porewaters, but metal-amino acid complexes dominated the speciation of Cu(II) in all the porewaters and Ni(II) in two of the porewaters.
