Abstract
The current study investigates the combined treatment of wastewater of anaerobic digestate and landfill leachate, using deammonification and coagulation/flocculation processes. The deammonification section studies the performance of a full-scale deammonification plant in nitrogen and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal, monitored over 2 years. For further COD reduction from the deammonification effluent (DE) to meet the environmental regulatory standards, coagulation/flocculation using three different Al-based coagulants was used to treat the DE. Results revealed that the deammonification plant showed 80% average ammonium removal from the mixed feed over the study period. Additionally, 30% of the feed COD was removed in the deammonification plant. COD analysis after treatment using coagulants revealed that the polyaluminum chloride modified with Fe had the best performance in reducing COD to meet the environmental standards. Excitation-emission matrix-parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) of the dissolved organic material (DOM) samples indicated that fluorescents were the compounds mostly affected by the coagulant types. DOM analysis using 2D correlation Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that the applied coagulants showed minor differences in removing different functional groups, despite having different COD reduction performance. Wastewater elemental analysis indicated elevated metal concentrations in low pH conditions (<6) due to re-stabilization of the flocs using coagulants.

Abstract
The food processing industry is one of the world's largest consumers of potable water. Agri-food wastewater systems consume about 70% of the world's fresh water and cause at least 80% of deforestation. Food wastewater is characterized by complex composition, a wide range of pollutants, and fluctuating water quality, which can cause huge environmental pollution problems if discharged directly. In recent years, food wastewater has attracted considerable attention as it is considered to have great prospects for resource recovery and reuse due to its rich residues of nutrients and low levels of harmful substances. This review explored and compared the sources and characteristics of different types of food wastewater and methods of wastewater treatment. Particular attention was paid to the different methods of resource recovery and reuse of food wastewater. The diversity of raw materials in the food industry leads to different compositional characteristics of wastewater, which determine the choice and efficiency of wastewater treatment methods. Physicochemical methods, and biological methods alone or in combination have been used for the efficient treatment of food wastewater. Current approaches for recycling and reuse of food wastewater include culture substrates, agricultural irrigation, and bio-organic fertilizers, recovery of high-value products such as proteins, lipids, biopolymers, and bioenergy to alleviate the energy crisis. Food wastewater is a promising substrate for resource recovery and reuse, and its valorization meets the current international policy requirements regarding food waste and environment protection, follows the development trend of the food industry, and is also conducive to energy conservation, emission reduction, and economic development. However, more innovative biotechnologies are necessary to advance the effectiveness of food wastewater treatment and the extent of resource recovery and valorization.

Abstract
Adsorption and coagulation were commonly used to alleviate reverse osmosis (RO) membrane fouling caused by dissolved organic matters (DOM), but the effects of changed composition and structure of DOM in dyeing wastewater after adsorption and coagulation on RO membrane fouling have seldom been studied. This study aimed at resolving the mechanism how the RO membrane fouling during dyeing wastewater treatment was alleviated by using adsorption and coagulation. The dyeing wastewater caused serious RO membrane fouling. Pretreatment with granular activated carbon (GAC), polyferric sulfate (PFS) and polyaluminum chloride (PACl) were conducted. It was shown that GAC could remove most of the DOM (95%) and preferred to adsorb protein, hydrophobic neutrals and fluorescent compounds. Both coagulants of PFS and PACl preferred to remove polysaccharides (the removal rate was 9-19% higher than that of DOM), high-MW compounds and these compounds with high fouling potential. Afterwards, the RO membrane fouling potential of the dyeing wastewater was tested. The GAC and PFS performed well to alleviate fouling. After GAC treatment, the decline rate of RO flux was similar to that of raw wastewater after 6-fold dilution. With pretreatment by PFS or PACl, the fouling potential of dyeing wastewater was much lower than that of raw wastewater after diluted to the same DOM content. Changes in polysaccharides content in the DOM had more effects on RO membrane fouling than that of proteins after these pretreatment. Although the DOM changed significantly after pretreatment, the fouling type was still intermediate blocking.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 424:127530. [PMID: 34879521 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.127530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 10/02/2021] [Accepted: 10/14/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The increasing frequency and intensity of taste- and odour-producing cyanobacteria in water sources is a growing global issue. Odour events caused by 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) mainly arising from filamentous cyanobacteria have been a very common problem in water supply. Removal rates of filamentous cyanobacteria and 2-MIB by conventional water treatment, such as coagulation, and disinfection treatment processes is low. Hence, a moderate pre-ozonation of cyanobacteria (with little cell damage) was proposed in this study as an enhanced coagulation step to remove filamentous cyanobacteria and intracellular 2-MIB effectively, while avoiding the release of intracellular 2-MIB. A post-peroxone (O3/H2O2) process was applied after sand filtration to degrade the residual dissolved 2-MIB. Results show that moderate pre-ozonation (0.2 mg/L O3 oxidation for 20 min) can substantially enhance the coagulation efficiency for algae, with low cell lysis and high cell viability. Furthermore, 2.0 mg/L O3 combined with 2.0 mg/L H2O2 can degrade the residual dissolved 2-MIB nearly 100% after 20 min reaction. Based on the optimal dosages, a 0.6 m3/h pilot system, including pre-ozonation, coagulation and sedimentation, sand filtration, and post-peroxone processes, was continuously run for 14 days, and it was found that the proposed process can effectively and stably remove filamentous cyanobacteria and 2-MIB.

Abstract
Ethanol distillation generates a huge volume of unwanted chemical liquid known as distillery wastewater. Distillery wastewater is acidic, dark brown having high biological oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, contains various salt contents, and heavy metals. Inadequate and indiscriminate disposal of distillery wastewater deteriorates the quality of the soil, water, and ultimately groundwater. Its direct exposure via food web shows toxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic effects on aquatic-terrestrial organisms including humans. So, there is an urgent need for its proper management. For this purpose, a group of researchers applied distillery wastewater for fertigation while others focused on its physico-chemical, biological treatment approaches. But until now no cutting-edge technology has been proposed for its effective management. So, it becomes imperative to comprehend its toxicity, treatment methods, and implication for environmental sustainability. This paper reviews the last decade's research data on advanced physico-chemical, biological, and combined (physico-chemical and biological) methods to treat distillery wastewater and its reuse aspects. Finally, it revealed that the combined methods along with the production of value-added products are one of the best options for distillery wastewater management.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to explore the ability of cutinase in the decolorization of molasses wastewater. Thermophilic cutinase from Thermobifida alba eliminated 76.1-78.2% of colorants and exhibited the highest decolorization efficiency amongst all of the cutinases tested. Cutinase from Thermobifida alba was immobilized on an affordable and efficient modified chitosan carrier and achieved a decolorization yield of 79.3-81.2%. This cutinase removed 66.3-71.1% of pigments and lasted continuously for 5 days. Importantly, it was also shown to continuously and effectively remove COD and BOD5. Compared to other enzymes, the immobilized cutinase from Thermobifida alba had the advantage of being low-cost and had a high expression level and activity. The results confirmed the decolorization occurred by destroying the conjugated system of melanoidins via an addition reaction by cutinase from Thermobifida alba. Thus, this study contributes a more practical and efficient approach to enzymatic decolorization of molasses wastewater.

Abstract
The water reservoirs are getting polluted due to increasing amounts of micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals, organic polymers and suspended solids. Powdered activated carbon (PAC) has been proved to be a promising solution for the purification of water without having harmful impacts on the environment. Parameters such as PAC dosing, wastewater hardness, the effect of coagulant and flocculant were evaluated in a batch scale study. These parameters were further applied on a pilot plant scale for the performance evaluation of PAC based removal of micropollutants concerning the contact time and PAC dosing with main focus on recirculation of PAC sludge. The obtained optimum dose was 10-20 mg/L providing 84.40-91.30% removal efficiency of suspended solid micropollutants (MPs) and this efficiency increased to 88.90-93.00% along with coagulant which further raised by the addition of polymer and recirculation process at batch scale. On pilot plant scale, the concentration in contact reactor and PAC removal effectiveness of dissolved air flotation, lamella separator and sedimentation tank were compared. Constant optimisation resulted in a concentration ranging from 2.70 to 3.40 g/L at dosing of PAC 10 mg/L, coagulant 2.00 mg/L and polymer 0.50 mg/L. PAC doses of 10-20 mg/L with 15-30 min contact time proved best for above 70-80% elimination. The recirculation system has also proved an efficient technique because the PAC's adsorption capacity was practically completely used. Small PAC dosages yielded high micropollutants elimination.

[PMID: 31386957 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.133649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2019] [Revised: 07/08/2019] [Accepted: 07/27/2019] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
The flotation using coagulative colloidal gas aphrons (CCGAs) is of great potential in effectively removing the recalcitrant dissolved organic matter (DOM) and colorants from the bio-chemically treated cassava distillery wastewater. As bubble modifier, the monomeric and polymeric inorganic coagulants need to be studied considering their distinct influence on the surfactant/coagulant complex, the properties of colloidal aphrons as well as the process performance and mechanisms. Such studies help to create robust CCGAs with high flotation potential. In this work, the commonly-used monomeric and polymeric Al(III)- and Fe(III)-coagulants were combined with the cationic surfactant - cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to generate CCGAs. The CCGAs functionalized with Al(III)-coagulants (both monomeric and polymeric ones) were featured as small bubble size, strong stability and high air content. Particularly, the monomeric Al(III)-coagulant (AlCl3 in this work) resulted in low surface tension and high foamability when being mixed with CTAB in the bubble generation solution. Those CCGAs achieved high removal efficiencies of DOM and colorants at low coagulant concentrations. The molecular weight of DOM in effluent was well controlled below 1 kDa by CCGAs. For the flocs obtained from CCGA-flotation, the characteristic Raman band of DOM and colorants showed the layer-by-layer variation of Raman intensity which decreased from the outer layer to the center. In contrast with the conventional coagulation-flotation, the reduction of coagulant dosage by CCGAs was 67% (AlCl3), 25% (polyaluminum chloride), 60% (Fe2(SO4)3) and 40% (polyferric sulfate). The sludge production could then be largely reduced, and meanwhile, the retention time was shortened by 9.5 min.
