Abstract
A novel bio-carrier, PVA/Fe/starch gel bead, was fabricated and developed to enhance the anaerobic treatment performance of synthetic azo dye-containing wastewater. PVA-gel beads with 5 % magnetite and 0.5 % starch were optimal for physical strength and treatment performance. A pair of 2 L-up-flow anaerobic sludge blankets (UASB), one with the bead (UB) and another without (U) as a controller, operated continuously at 30 °C and an HRT of 11-24 h for 302 days. UB showed better performance than U in most phases, especially with influent dye of 200 mg·L-1, suggesting a greater tolerance to dye toxicity of UB than U. Microbial analysis revealed that the PVA/Fe/starch gel beads successfully captured the dye degrader Clostridium. Diversity indices indicated that PVA/Fe/Starch gel beads effectively support microbial diversity and resilience under varying dye concentrations. Overall, these findings demonstrate the potential of PVA/Fe/Starch gel beads to improve the stability and efficiency of the dye treatment system.

Development of an internal two-stage upflow anaerobic reactor integrating biostimulation strategies to enhance the degradation of aromatic compounds in wastewater from purified terephthalic acid and dimethyl terephthalate manufacturing processes. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 258:121762.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to establish high-rate biological treatment of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) and dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) wastewater that minimizes the inhibitory effects of high concentration benzoate and acetate. To achieve this, we developed a novel bioreactor system and biostimulation strategy. An internal two-stage upflow anaerobic (ITUA) reactor was operated with (i) a packed bed containing green tuff medium underlying (ii) a compartment seeded with anaerobic granular sludge. Ethylene glycol was amended to stimulate syntrophic interactions. Continuous operation of the system for 1,026 days achieve an organic removal rate of 11.0 ± 0.6 kg COD/m3/d. The abundance of aromatic degraders significantly increased during operation. Thus, we successfully developed a high-rate treatment system to treat wastewater from the PTA/DMT manufacturing processes by activating syntrophs in an ITUA reactor.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 374:128737. [PMID: 36781146 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.128737] [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: 12/24/2022] [Revised: 02/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Magnetic granular activated carbon (MGAC), a nano-Fe3O4 modified granular activated carbon, was used as the carrier in an anaerobic fluidized-bed membrane bioreactor (AFMBR) to promote domestic wastewater treatment efficiency and alleviate membrane biofouling. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal reached 89 ± 2.6% with the effluent concentration of 20 ± 3.9 mg/L in the MGAC-AFMBR, while it was 28 ± 5.2 mg/L in AFMBR at hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 4 h. Total nitrogen (TN) removal was also enhanced by 4.0% with MGAC. An increased proportion of Chloroflexi and Bacteroidetes in the sludge may be responsible for improved treatment performance. MGAC reduced the protein and polysaccharide content in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) by 9.8% and 8.1%, respectively. Besides, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria abundance decreased by 4.0% and 16.6% in the membrane cake layer with MGAC addition. Therefore, the high-quality effluent and low membrane biofouling of AFMBR was sustained by MGAC.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 821:152792. [PMID: 35033568 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.152792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 12/11/2021] [Accepted: 12/26/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Two biomass immobilization techniques; entrapment and carrier-based, attract increasing attention in anammox and partial nitrification/anammox (PN/A) systems. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the advances, outstanding issues, and future research directions in this field. The application of both entrapment and carrier-based biofilm immobilization for reactor start up, improving the nitrogen removal performance, and protecting autotrophic bacteria from environmental fluctuations in anammox and partial nitrification/anammox systems are summarized and discussed. The key characteristics of carriers for biomass immobilization are biocompatibility for supporting microbial growth, permeability for effective mass transfer, and physical/chemical stability for long-term use. Carriers without these characteristics must be improved and re-evaluated for their feasibility in applications. Lab-scale, pilot, and full-scale studies are needed to overcome the potential obstacles of preliminary studies, and to investigate the long-term performance of biomass immobilization techniques, especially using real wastewater as influent, which may introduce more complexity and threaten the carrier's immobilization. In addition, calculating the 'nitrogen removal rate normalized by the packing ratio of carriers (NRR-C)' in the immobilization system is strongly suggested to obtain a direct comparison of immobilization performance/limitations from different studies. This review will improve understanding of the major challenges of immobilization technology in anammox and PN/A systems and provide insights into the next-stage of research and full-scale applications.
