Abstract
Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising alternative desalination technology, but the hydrophobic membrane cannot intercept volatile organic compounds (VOCs), resulting in aggravation in the quality of permeate. In term of this, electro-Fenton (EF) was coupled with sweeping gas membrane distillation (SGMD) in a more efficient way to construct an advanced oxidation barrier at the gas-liquid interface, so that the VOCs could be trapped in this layer to guarantee the water quality of the distillate. During the so-called EF-MD process, an interfacial interception barrier containing hydroxyl radical formed on the hydrophobic membrane surface. It contributed to the high phenol rejection of 90.2% with the permeate phenol concentration lower than 1.50 mg/L. Effective interceptions can be achieved in a wide temperature range, even though the permeate flux of phenol was also intensified. The EF-MD system was robust to high salinity and could electrochemically regenerate ferrous ions, which endowed the long-term stability of the system. This novel EF-MD configuration proposed a valuable strategy to intercept VOCs in MD and will broaden the application of MD in hypersaline wastewater treatment.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 440:129743. [PMID: 35963086 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Over the past decade there has been an increasing concern on the presence of cytostatics (also known as anticancer drugs) in natural waterbodies. The conventional wastewater treatments seem not to be effective enough to remove them, and therefore new processes must be considered. This work investigates the performance of ozonation (O3), catalytic ozonation (O3/Fe2+) and peroxone (O3/H2O2) processes, under dark or UV radiation conditions, for the degradation of cytostatics of worldwide concern. The degradation of bicalutamide (a representative of recalcitrant cytostatics) was firstly assessed in batch and then in a tubular column reactor (continuous flow mode runs) using a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) secondary effluent. Bicalutamide removal ranged between 66 % (O3) and 98 % (O3/H2O2/UV) in continuous flow mode runs, the peroxone process being the most effective. The performance of these processes was then assessed against a mixture of twelve cytostatics of worldwide concern spiked in the WWTP effluent (25-350 ng/L). After treatment, seven cytostatics were completely removed, whereas the five most recalcitrant ones were eliminated to an extent of 8-92 % in O3/H2O2, and 44-95 % in O3/H2O2/UV. Phytotoxicity tests revealed a noticeable reduction in the effluent toxicity, demonstrating the feasibility of these processes in realistic conditions as tertiary treatment.
