Abstract
Ultrafiltration (UF) is a high-potential technology for purifying natural surface water; however, the problem of membrane fouling has limited its widespread application. Herein, ultraviolet (UV)-activated ferrate (Fe(vi)) was used to purify natural surface water and improve the performance of the UF membrane. The combination of UV and Fe(vi) could generate active species (Fe(v), Fe(iv), ˙OH and O2˙-) to degrade pollutants, while the in situ produced Fe(iii) had the effect of coagulation. With the above action, pollutants were removed, and the pollution load of natural surface water was reduced. After treatment with the UV/Fe(vi) system, dissolved organic carbon was reduced by 49.38%, while UV254 was reduced by 45.00%. The removal rate was further increased to 54.88% and 51.67% after UF treatment. In addition, the fluorescent organics were reduced by 44.22%, and the molecular weight of the organics became smaller. In the stage of UF, the terminal J/J0 was increased from 0.61 to 0.92, and the membrane fouling resistance was decreased by 85.94%. The analysis of the membrane fouling mechanism indicates that the role of cake filtration was weakened among all the mechanisms. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that less pollutants were accumulated on the membrane surface, and scanning electron microscopy revealed that the membrane pore blockage was relieved. In summary, the UV/Fe(vi) co-treatment process proposed in this study can significantly improve the purification efficiency of the UF systems in natural surface water treatment.

Abstract
The wastewater discharged from crude oil storage tanks (WCOST) contains high concentrations of salt and metal iron ions, and high chemical oxygen demand (COD). It belongs to "3-high" wastewater, which is difficult for purification. In this study, WCOST treatments were comparatively investigated via an advanced pretreatment and the traditional coagulation-microfiltration (CMF) processes. After WCOST was purified through the conventional CMF process, fouling occurred in the microfiltration (MF) membrane, which is rather harmful to the following reverse osmosis (RO) membrane unit, and the effluent featured high COD and UV254 values. The analysis confirmed that the MF fouling was due to the oxidation of ferrous ions, and the high COD and UV254 values were mainly attributable to the organic compounds with small molecular sizes, including aromatic-like and fulvic-like compounds. After the pretreatment of the advanced process consisting of aeration, manganese sand filtration, and activated carbon adsorption in combination with CMF process, the removal efficiencies of organic matter and total iron ions reached 97.3% and 99.8%, respectively. All the water indexes of the effluent, after treatment by the advanced multi-unit process, meet well the corresponding standard. The advanced pretreatment process reported herein displayed a great potential for alleviating the MF membrane fouling and enhanced the lifetime of the RO membrane system in the 3-high WCOST treatment.

[PMID: 36374727 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.159812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
This paper presents the first study to quantify and demonstrate the interactions between SBR operating conditions (hydraulic retention time (HRT) and temperature) and soluble microbial product (SMP) generation, as well as the impact of SBR operating conditions and filtration temperature on fouling of membranes used in tertiary treatment. Reducing SBR operating HRT from 20 to 10 h resulted in an increase in SMP concentrations, however, the extent of the increase in high and low molecular weight (MW) organics was different for the effluents from SBRs operated at 8 and 20 °C. Results of SMP modelling demonstrated that a reduction in SBR operating HRT induced decreased utilization associated product (UAP) yields and the influence was greater at the SBR operating temperature of 8 °C. In contrast, biomass associated product (BAP) yields were relatively stable with SBR operating HRT but greater at lower SBR operating temperature. The effects of SBR operating HRT and temperature on fouling indices were also interactive. Reducing SBR operating HRT led to a lower increase in hydraulically reversible resistances and a greater increase in hydraulically irreversible resistances for the effluent from the SBR operated at 8 °C. Reducing the filtration temperature resulted in additional increase in membrane resistances, and the increase was greater at lower SBR operating HRT. The contribution of filtration temperature was observed to have the greatest impact on membrane resistances, followed in importance by SBR operating HRT and temperature. The comprehensive analysis undertaken in the present study provides insights into the interaction between secondary and tertiary operations on fouling development. The results can be employed to understand the limits of fouling control for tertiary treatment under challenging conditions.

Abstract
Microorganic pollutants (MOPs) in aquatic environment with low levels but high toxicity are harmful to ecosystem and human health. Fe(VI) has a dual-functional role in oxidation and coagulation, and can effectively remove MOPs, heavy metal, phosphate, particulates and colloids. Moreover, Fe(VI) can combine with traditional coagulants, or use as a pretreatment for membrane treatment because of its characters to generate nanoparticles by degradation in water. Based on the relevant toxicity experiments, Fe(VI) had been proved to be safe for the efficient treatment of MOPs. For better utilization of Fe(VI), its oxidation and coagulation mechanisms are summarized, and the knowledge about the control parameters, utilization methods, and toxicity effect for Fe(VI) application are reviewed in this paper. pH, different valences of iron, environmental substances, and other parameters are summarized in this study to clarify the important factors in the treatment of MOPs with Fe(VI). In the future study, aiming at cost reduction in Fe(VI) preparation, transportation and storage, enhancement of oxidation in the intermediate state, and better understanding the mechanism between interface and Fe(VI) oxidation will help promote the application of Fe(VI) in the removal of MOPs. This study offers guidelines for the application and development of Fe(VI) for the treatment of MOPs in aquatic environment.

CuO@carbon nanofiber as an efficient peroxymonosulfate catalyst for mitigation of organic matter fouling in the ultrafiltration process. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 626:1028-1039.

Abstract
Persulfate oxidation has been increasingly integrated with membrane separation for water purification, whereas the oxidizing ability of persulfate is relatively limited, and appropriate activation methods are urgently required. In this work, a novel catalyst of carbon nanofiber (CNF) supported CuO (CuO@CNF) was synthesized for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. The micro-morphology showed that CuO nanoparticles were well dispersed on the CNF support, which solved the agglomeration problem of nanoparticles and improved the catalytic ability. Furtherly, PMS oxidation activated by CuO@CNF was proposed as a pre-processing means for improving ultrafiltration (UF) water purification efficiency and mitigating membrane fouling. The prepared CuO@CNF was more efficient than individual CNF and CuO in activating PMS for the reduction of various typical natural organic matter, improving permeation flux, and mitigating membrane fouling. The fouling control efficiencies were also verified by characterizing the membrane surface functional groups. The CuO@CNF catalyst could signally promote the oxidative capacity by generating a series of reactive oxygen species, thus enhancing the removal of organics with varying species and molecular weight ranges in surface water. With respect to the fouling condition, the specific permeation flux after filtration was improved from 0.25 to 0.61, with the removal rate of reversible fouling resistance reached 89.6%. The fouling mechanism was apparently altered, with both standard and complete blocking dominated throughout the filtration process. The findings are beneficial for the development of new strategies to improve membrane-based water purification efficiency.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are considered as emerging environmental contaminants, which should be controlled by wastewater treatment plants to prevent their discharge into the environment. However, conventional treatment techniques generally fail to successfully reduce ARGs, and the release of cell-free ARGs was underestimated. In this study, potassium ferrate (Fe(VI)) pretreatment combined with ultrafiltration (UF) process was developed to remove both cell-associated and cell-free ARGs in real secondary effluent, compared to ferric chloride (Fe(III)) and poly-aluminum chloride (PACl) pretreatment processes. It was found that total ARGs especially cell-free ARGs were effectively removed by Fe(VI) oxidation. However, due to the poor settleability of the negatively charged particles formed by Fe(VI) in the secondary effluent, the removal of cell-associated ARGs was less compared to Fe(III) and PACl pretreatments. The combination of Fe(VI) and UF removed the most ARGs (3.26 - 5.01 logs) due to the efficient removal of cell-free ARGs by Fe(VI) (> 2.15 logs) and co-interception of both cell-associated ARGs and Fe(VI) formed particles of the UF. High-throughput sequencing revealed that Fe(VI) decreased the viability and relative abundances of the potential ARGs hosts. Fe(VI)-UF exhibited the best performance on humic-like fluorescent organic matters removal, as well as the least phytotoxicity in the effluent. Moreover, membrane fouling was remarkably alleviated by Fe(VI) pretreatment because (1) Fe(VI) removed macromolecules such as protein-like and polysaccharide-like substances which would block the membrane pores, (2) Fe(VI) improved the hydrophilicity of foulants and reduced the hydrophobic adsorption between foulants and membrane. In short, Fe(VI)-UF is a promising technology to efficiently remove ARGs (especially cell-free ARGs) and alleviate UF membrane fouling in wastewater reclamation.

Abstract
In this study, a permanganate-assisted electrocoagulation-ultrafiltration (PEC-UF) process was proposed to control membrane fouling in the treatment of secondary effluent. Four comparable systems, i.e., UF, electro-UF (E-UF), electrocoagulation-UF (EC-UF), and PEC-UF, were investigated to systematically clarify the role of permanganate and electrocoagulation in mitigating membrane fouling. Results revealed that the formation of a dense cake layer containing concentrated solutes was the primary reason for membrane fouling. Electrocoagulation significantly mitigated membrane fouling and resulted in the reduction of the normalized transmembrane pressure of the EC-UF and PEC-UF systems by 35.0% and 44.6% compared with the UF control system, respectively. However, the retention of a considerable amount of iron oxyhydroxide precipitates on the membrane surface aggravated inorganic fouling in the in-situ EC-UF system. Furthermore, the enhanced formation of Fe(III) by oxidation of Fe(II) with permanganate promoted the coagulation process. Hence, increased generation of Fe(III) and enhanced coagulation promoted by formed MnOx accelerated the formation of a hydrophilic cake layer with high porosity and thereby reduced the occurrence of both organic and inorganic membrane fouling. These results demonstrated the potential application of permanganate-assisted in-situ electrical-based methods to control UF membrane fouling during advanced wastewater treatment.

Abstract
MnO2 nanorods with controllable scale were grown in the PVDF-g-PMAA modified membrane to form PVDF-g-PMAA@ MnO2 membrane through the in situ redox reaction of KMnO4 solution, which is confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray energy-dispersion spectroscopy (EDX). The pore size of the membrane decreased with the increase of KMnO4 solution concentration. The thermodynamic stability and the hydrophilicity of the membrane were also enhanced by the MnO2 nanorods. The water flux, bovine serum albumin (BSA)/Lysozyme protein solution flux and rejection, flux recovery, etc. showed effective improvement of the anti-fouling performance of the PVDF-g-PMAA@ MnO2 membrane. More importantly, it can effectively separate BSA from lysozyme, which provided a potential application in the field of biology, food, and other industrial fields for the requirement of separation and purification.

Abstract
Low-cost gravity-driven membrane (GDM) filtration has the potential to efficiently manage highly decentralized shale gas wastewater (SGW). In this work, the feasibility of combining low dosage pre-ozonation with the GDM process was evaluated in the treatment of SGW. The results showed that pre-ozonation significantly increased the stable flux (372%) of GDM filtration, while slightly deteriorating the quality of the effluent water in terms of organic content (-14%). These results were mainly attributed to the conversion of macromolecular organics to low-molecular weight fractions by pre-ozonation. Interestingly, pre-ozonation markedly increased the flux (198%) in the first month of operation also for a GDM process added with granular activated carbon (GGDM). Nevertheless, the flux of O3-GGDM systems dropped sharply around the 25th day of operation, which might be due to the rapid accumulation of pollutants in the high flux stage and the formation of a dense fouling layer. Pre-ozonation remarkably influenced the microbial community structure. And O3-GDM systems were characterized by distinct core microorganisms, which might degrade specific organics in SGW. Furthermore, O3-GDM outperformed simple GDM as a pretreatment for RO. These findings can provide valuable references for combining oxidation technologies with the GDM process in treating refractory wastewater.
