Abstract
Dichlorvos or 2,2-dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP) ( C 4 H 7 C l 2 O 4 P ) is a chlorinated organophosphorus pesticide, which is frequently detected in agricultural wastewater. Herein, a batch reactor was used to carry out the supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) of a synthetic wastewater containing dichlorvos as a very hazardous agricultural pollutant. To do so, the impact of four operating parameters including dichlorvos concentration (100-500 ppm), oxidant coefficient (0.7-2), temperature (300-500°C) and time (0-100 s) on dichlorvos removal was optimized by the response surface method (RSM). According to the obtained results, at optimal conditions (i.e. initial concentration of dichlorvos 107.5 ppm, oxidation ratio 1.9234, temperature 419.9°C and time 79.94 s), as an index for dichlorvos removal, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) was found to be about 96.34%. Also, the results of high-performance liquid chromatography test showed that dichloroacetaldehyde (C2CL2H2O) and dichloroacetic acid (C2CL2H2O2) were created as intermediate substances during the dichlorvos degradation. Further, the molecular dynamics simulation was performed using ReaxFF force field to show the reaction path and products obtained in each step of the dichlorvos removal. Finally, as an indication, the simulation results indicated a good coordination with the experimental results.

Abstract
Hypersaline wastewater is a typical industrial wastewater produced by iron and steel metallurgy, food material processing and other industries. Aiming at a waste liquid produced by mechanical vapour recompression evaporation and concentration in Tianjin coastal industrial zone, an environment-friendly supercritical water oxidation technology was used to efficiently remove the high-content organic matter in the hypersaline wastewater concentrate (HWC). A comparison of the degradation effects of various oxidants in the supercritical state showed that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) could be used as a suitable agent for processing the HWC. The reaction parameters were systematically optimised by single-factor experiment and response surface design. The degradation mechanism and reaction characteristics were analyzed using gas chromatography mass spectrometry. Solid residues were characterised by field emission scanning electron microscope. The results indicated that when the dosage of hydrogen peroxide was 6.39%, the reaction temperature was 380°C, the reaction time was about 90 min and the optimal total organic carbon removal rate was 96.22%. Furthermore, it was found that hydroxyl radicals produced by hydrogen peroxide initiated the bond breaking and ring-opening reactions in organic matter, which eventually degraded organic matter into water and carbon dioxide.

Abstract
The efficient and harmless treatment of hypersaline organic wastes has become an urgent environmental problem. Compared to traditional thermochemical methods, supercritical water oxidation has been proven to be an efficient organic waste treatment technology due to the advantages of low cost, high degradation rate, no secondary pollutants, etc. However, the solubilities of inorganic salts drop rapidly near the critical point of water, and some sticky salts form easily agglomerates and then adhere to internal surfaces of reactor and pipeline, causing plugging and inhibition of heat transfer. Hence, the characteristics, mechanisms and measurement methods of the dissolution and deposition of inorganic salts in sub-/supercritical water are summarized and analyzed systematically and comprehensively in this work, intending to provide a valuable guide for salt deposition prevention and subsequent research directions. Firstly, a new classification form of inorganic salt is put forward based on melting point. The phase equilibriums of brine systems are then analyzed in detail. Six theories concerning dissolution mechanisms are discussed deeply and various measurement methods of salt solubility are also supplemented. Furthermore, salt deposition characteristics and related measurement technologies are summarized. Notably, a new idea "hydrothermal molten salt" system is reviewed which may provide a solution for salt deposition in sub/supercritical water. Finally, an outlook for the follow-up researches is prospected and some suggestions are proposed.

Abstract
The growing interest in innovations regarding the treatment of oily wastewater stems from the fact that the oil industry is the largest polluter of the environment. The harm caused by this industry is seen in all countries. Companies that produce such wastewater are responsible for its treatment prior to disposal or recycling into their production processes. As oil emulsions are difficult to manage and require different types of treatment or even combined methods, a range of environmental technologies have been proposed for oil-contaminated effluents, such as gravity separation, flotation, flocculation, biological treatment, advanced oxidation processes, and membranes. Natural materials, such as biopolymers, constitute a novel, sustainable solution with considerable potential for oily effluent separation. The present review offers an overview of the treatment of oily wastewater, describing current trends and the latest applications. This review also points to further research needs and major concerns, especially with regards to sustainability, and discusses potential biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Hydrothermal flames are formed in supercritical water in the presence of a fuel and an oxidant (usually air or oxygen). Integrating hydrothermal flames as the heat source for supercritical water oxidation helps to minimize the reaction time (to milliseconds), improve the reaction kinetics and reduce the chances of corrosion and reactor plugging. This review outlines state-of-the-art research on hydrothermal flames including the impacts of process parameters on flame ignition. The ignition and sustainability of hydrothermal flames are dependent on several factors such as the type of fuel and its concentration, type of oxidant (air and oxygen) as well as the temperatures and flow rate of the feed and oxidant. The article describes some novel applications of hydrothermal flames for clean energy production, geothermal energy recovery, deep well spallation, wastewater treatment, degradation of recalcitrant nitrogen-containing compounds and heavy oil upgrading. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives of hydrothermal flame applications are discussed. This review also highlights some technical considerations relating to hydrothermal flames such as the choice of organic solvent and its characteristics, preheating, ignition mechanism, flame stability and propagation, advanced reactor configurations, mixing with subcritical and supercritical components, recirculation zones, cooling mechanisms, corrosion and salt precipitation.

Abstract
Supercritical water (SCW) technology can be applied as an efficient and environment-friendly method to recover toxic or complex chemical wastes. Separation and chemical reactions under supercritical conditions may be realized by changing the temperature, pressure, and other operating parameters to adjust the physical and chemical properties of water. However, salt deposition and corrosion are often encountered during the treatment of inorganic substances, which will hinder the commercial applications of SCW technology. The solubility of salt in high pressure/temperature water forms the theoretical basis for studying the recovery of metal salts in supercritical water and understanding salt deposition. Therefore, this work systematically and objectively reviews different research methods used to analyze salt solubility in high pressure/temperature water, including the experimental method, prediction theoretical modeling, and computer simulation method; the research status and existing data of this parameter are also analyzed. The purpose of this review is to provide ideas and references for follow-up research by providing a comprehensive overview of salt solubility research methods and the current situation. Suggestions for more efficient metal recovery through technology integration are also provided.
