Acrylonitrile and styrene are used as the raw materials for manufacturing acrylic fiber, thus they are often found as pollutants in the petrochemical wastewater. This study utilizes ozone to decompose the organic nitrogen contained in acrylonitrile and styrene, and the oxidation process was monitored using on-line measurements of oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and pH. The efficiency of organic nitrogen decomposition was also estimated based on the COD, organic nitrogen, TOC, ammonia-N, nitrite, and nitrate measurements. Both the initial pH and alkalinity are observed to affect the degradation rate of organic nitrogen. The acrylonitrile sample with the lowest initial pH value (i.e., 4.0) has a shorter t1/2 of 18.9 min and that for samples of the highest initial pH (i.e., 11) was 34 min. The alkalinity of one acrylonitrile sample was boosted by adding 500 mg/l CaCO3, to simulate the field ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) wastewater effluent. It was observed that within a short ozone contact time, the acrylonitrile sample spiked with 500 mg/l CaCO3 had the highest COD decomposition rate of 0.411 min−1, or 1.3 times more than that for samples without addition of CaCO3. Results of the ozonation process can be fitted with a modified Nernst equation for the various pH conditions. Additionally, the ozone treated synthetic ABS sample shows a faster COD removal rate in the subsequent biological process than those samples without ozone treatment.

In the paper we first discussed the principle of wastewater treatment by iron-carbon micro electrolysis. And the experimental methods were stated clear soon afterwards. Then we designed the micro electrolysis orthogonal experiments. Discussion of influences of related factors on waste water treatment followed. The main factors are cerium ion additive quantity, ratio of La3+/Ce4+ and pH in wastewater. The experimental results show that 1) The sequence of factors influence on wastewater micro-electrolysis treatment is Ce4+ > pH > La3+ > iron/carbon ratio; 2) The lanthanum and cerium ions have a synergistic effect in the wastewater treatment, and cerium ion plays a main role; 3) When pH is 6, COD removal rate arrives at maximum 89%, however when the pH is in the case of too high or too low, the effect of sewage treatment is not good.

Nowadays the traditional dyeing wastewater treatments based on flocculation-biochemical technology become more difficult than before. The study in this paper aim was it to probe how adding rare earths (REs) into iron-carbon micro-electrolysis process to advance dyeing wastewater degradation. Firstly, the principle was discussed. Then the experimental methods were stated and it followed by exploring effect of iron powder size on the dye decolorization rate. Next were design of the micro electrolysis orthogonal experiments and discussion of influences of related factors on waste water treatment. The experimental results show that besides common iron powder particle size and the processing time, the factors that have great influence on dyeing wastewater treatment are Ce4+, pH, La3+ and iron/carbon ratio. The sequence of factors influence on wastewater micro-electrolysis treatment is Ce4+ > pH > La3+ > iron/carbon ratio. When pH is 6, COD removal rate arrives at maximum 89%, however when the pH is in the case of too high or too low, the effect of sewage degradation is not good.

A series of sodium bentonites and cetyl tri methyl ammonium bromide as raw materials were prepared to the modified organic composite montmorillonites. The performance characterization of the modified organic bentonite was observed by means of IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy. And the modified organic bentonite was applied into the pretreatment of landfill leachate, which was with the COD as high as 20000-37000 mg/L. The COD removal rate was invested as index. The optimum dosage and the best reaction conditions of bentonite have also been studied. The results indicated that the treatment effect of COD on the modified bentonite was better than the natural bentonite. Under the optimum conditions, the removal rate of COD reached 67.85% and the load of biological treatment was reduced on the next step.

With kitchen residues and cattle manure as raw materials, in temperature (36±1°C) adopt the way of the batch type fermented for kitchen residues and cattle manure, we will have a comparative research between independent anaerobic fermentation and mixed anaerobic fermentation. The results of the experiments show that the gas production and COD removal rate by the anaerobic fermentation of cattle manure independent would be superior to kitchen residues, the optimal effect is the anaerobic fermentation of kitchen residues mixed with cattle manure in all aspects .In this experiment all the kitchen residues are rice, vegetables, meat, eggs and other food all that have been after cooked, containing a large number of fat and salt, such condition is not suitable for the growth of microorganism. The time of gas production is only nine days and gas production rate is extremely low, only 1500ml accumulative gas production, But cattle manure’s accumulative gas production is 3028ml, COD removal rate was 21%, COD removal rate by mixed anaerobic fermentation of kitchen residues and cattle manure can achieve 60.92%.

Design/methodology/approach The single factor experiment was used to explore the optimum process parameters for electrochemical decolorization of indigo dyeing wastewater by changing the applied voltage, electrolysis time and electrolyte concentration. At the voltage of 9 V, the morphology of flocs with different electrolytic times was observed and the effect of electrolyte concentration on decolorization rate in two electrolyte systems was also investigated.

Abstract A novel iron-carbon (Fe/C) micro-electrolysis combined with H2O2 (ICMH) process was proposed to pretreat the printing and dyeing wastewater (PDW), using a micro-electrolysis filling. The effects of H2O2 concentration, reaction time, initial pH, and Fe/C dosage on chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate of PDW were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). The maximum COD removal rate was approximately 77.65% after 186 min treatment, when the concentration of H2O2, initial pH and the dosage of Fe/C were 8.88 g/L, 1.5 and 837 g/L, respectively. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed a high coefficient of determination value (R2 = 0.9780). And H2O2 concentration and initial pH were the key factors to improve the treatment effect. UV-Vis spectra indicated that a significant blue shift at 220 nm, attributing that fused aromatic hydrocarbons were degraded effectively. 3D-EEM spectra analysis showed that the water samples of PDW mainly contained three kinds of organic matter: refractory fulvic acid, soluble microbial metabolites and aromatic proteins, and the degradation rate of these was 81.76%, 53.78% and 70.83%, respectively.
