Coke was modified as adsorbent for advanced treatment of coking wastewater and different factors on the impact of wastewater COD removal have been studied. The results showed that pH and temperature effect little on the COD removal and COD of coke wastewater could be reduced from 93mg/L to 48mg/L in the condition of 60 min adsorption time , 300r/min speed revolve and 13g adsorbent dosage. per 200ml water.

The removal efficiency of degrading flora which has been constructed is investigated in biological carbon process through the variation of COD and chromaticity. The results show that the efficient degrading strains can reproduce on the activated carbon quickly;the biological activated carbon reactor,in which degrading flora to coking waste water are inoculated,is adopted to carry out the treatment of wastewater,in such a way the COD and chromaticity in outflow water can remain at a lower level (with COD about 50mg/L and chromaticity about 50 degree). The average COD removal rate is 71% and the chromaticity removal ratio is 95%.

Coking wastewater is a kind of recalcitrant wastewater including complicate compositions. Advanced treatment of coking wastewater by Fenton-Like reaction using pyrite as catalyst was investigated in this paper. The results show that the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of coking wastewater decreased significantly by method of coagulation combined with two-stage oxidation reaction. COD of wastewater can decrease from 250mg/l to 45mg/l after treatment, when 2g/L pyrite was used in each stage oxidation and the dosage of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is 0.2ml/l for first stage treatment, 0.1ml/l for second stage treatment respectively. The pyrite is effective to promote Fenton-Like reaction with low cost due to high utilization efficiency of H2O2, moreover, catalyst could be easily recovered and reused. The Fenton-Like reaction might be used as a potential alternative to advanced treatment of recalcitrant wastewater.

Magnetic MXene composite Fe3O4@Ti3C2 was successfully prepared and employed as 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) adsorbent from water solution. The response surface methodology was employed to investigate the interactive effects of adsorption parameters (adsorption time, pH of the solution, initial concentration, and the adsorbent dose) and optimize these parameters for obtaining maximum adsorption efficiency of EE2. The significance of independent variables and their interactions were tested by the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test statistics. Optimization of the process variables for maximum adsorption of EE2 by Fe3O4@Ti3C2 was performed using the quadratic model. The model predicted maximum adsorption of 97.08% under the optimum conditions of the independent variables (adsorption time 6.7 h, pH of the solution 6.4, initial EE2 concentration 0.98 mg L−1, and the adsorbent dose 88.9 mg L−1) was very close to the experimental value (95.34%). pH showed the highest level of significance with the percent contribution (63.86%) as compared to other factors. The interactive influences of pH and initial concentration on EE2 adsorption efficiency were significant (p < 0.05). The goodness of fit of the model was checked by the coefficient of determination (R2) between the experimental and predicted values of the response variable. The response surface methodology successfully reflects the impact of various factors and optimized the process variables for EE2 adsorption. The kinetic adsorption data for EE2 fitted well with a pseudo-second-order model, while the equilibrium data followed Langmuir isotherms. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the adsorption was a spontaneous and endothermic process. Therefore, Fe3O4@Ti3C2 composite present the outstanding capacity to be employed in the remediation of EE2 contaminated wastewaters.

With an ever-increasing world population and the resulting increase in industrialization and agricultural practices, depletion of one of the world’s most important natural resources, water, is inevitable. Water reclamation and reuse is the key to protecting this natural resource. Water reclamation using smaller decentralized wastewater treatment plants, known as satellite water reuse plants (WRP), has become popular in the last decade. Reuse plants have stricter standards for effluent quality and require a smaller land footprint (i.e., real estate area). They also require additional treatment processes and advanced treatment technologies. This greatly increases the energy consumption of an already energy intensive process, accentuating even more the nexus between energy use and wastewater processing. With growing concerns over the use of nonrenewable energy sources and resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, WRPs are in need of energy evaluations. This paper contrasts the energy consumption of both conventional and advanced treatment processes in satellite WRPs. Results of this research provide a means for engineers and wastewater utilities to evaluate unit processes based on energy consumption as well as a foundation for making decisions regarding the sustainability of using advanced treatment technologies at reuse facilities.

The objective of this work is to evaluate the impact of innovative modifications made to conventional effluent capture and discharge devices used in subsurface flow wetlands (SSFW). The main modifications that have been developed extend the influence of the capture and discharge device in such a way that the SSFW width and height are fully covered. This improved innovative device was applied and evaluated in two subsurface flow wetlands, one on a pilot scale and one on a real scale. To evaluate the impact of the innovative device with respect to the conventional one in the operational functioning of subsurface flow wetlands, the elimination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) was measured and compared. The results show that for the innovative device, the COD removal was 10% higher than for the conventional device, confirming the validity and effectiveness of the modifications implemented in the effluent capture and discharge devices used in SSFW.

A kind of new adsorption material for wastewater treatment was made of fly ash as the main composition, with addition of sodium silicate, cement and pore forming material as the accessory materials, etc. Three kinds of practical wastewater were treated by using the new material, they were printing and dyeing wastewater, papermaking wastewater and coking wastewater, respectively. The results showed that removal COD efficiencies of the three kinds of wastewater were 57.89%, 71.43%, 80%, respectively, removal color efficiencies were 90%, 92%, 92%, respectively. The new developed material was mainly used for advanced treatment of the effluent water after biochemical process. It will be a substitute for activated carbon materials and have preferable application prospect.

In this study, we studied the ability of modified Stilbite to adsorb heavy metals Pb2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+ from wastewater. In static conditions, we investigated the impact of pH, temperature, dosage, and the competitive adsorption characteristics of the modified Stilbite in addressing pollution of wastewater with Pb2+, Cu2+, Cd2+. The testing showed that: under normal circumstances, with a pH between 5-6, a dosage of 0.7 g, and an adsorption time of 90 minutes, the adsorption rate of the three metals was above 90%. The adsorption rate of Cu was greater than Pb, which was greater than Cd. The modified Stilbite adsorption of the three metals met Langmuir and Freundlich isothermal adsorption equations. The study also revealed that regenerated Stilbite, after adsorption, can still continue to be used for adsorption of heavy metals.
