On the basis of statistical data and country-specific emission factors, using IPCC methodology, the characteristics of CH_4 emissions from wastewater treatment in China were analyzed. The driving factors of CH_4 emissions were studied, and the emission trend and reduction potential were predicted and analyzed according to the current situation. Results show that in 2010, CH_4 emissions from the treatment of domestic and industrial wastewater were0.6110 Mt and 1.6237 Mt, respectively. Eight major industries account for more than 92% of emissions, and CH_4 emissions gradually increased from 2005 to 2010. From the controlling management scenario, we predict that in 2020, CH_4 emissions from the treatment of domestic and industrial wastewater will be 1.0136 Mt and 2.3393 Mt, respectively, and the reduction potential will be 0.0763 Mt and 0.2599 Mt, respectively.From 2010 to 2020, CH_4 emissions from the treatment of domestic and industrial wastewater will increase by 66% and 44%, respectively.展开更多

After each stage of the treatment, the products were analyzed through gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy （GC-MS） to determine their composition. Finally, AgNO3 ＋ K2FeO4 was used as an advanced deep catalytic oxidation treatment. It was concluded from the analysis that cyclic organics could be degraded and the chemical oxygen demand （COD） was controlled within 50 mg. L-1, in line with the target value, Meanwhile, the spectra obtained from the GC-MS were in accordance with the conclusions reached based on the COD. The research results showed that all hard-degradable organics in coking wastewater could be eliminated through the A2/O bio-membrane treatment and the advanced treatment of making use of K2FeO4 as an oxidant and Ag＋ as a catalyst, the catalytic efficiency with Ag＋ as a catalyst of K2FeO4 was very high. Ag＋ could evidently improve the oxidation capacity of K2FeO4 to wastewater in its short stability time, and this is an important innovation.展开更多

[Method] The effects of initial NH4＋-N and total P concentrations, N-to-P ratios, lightJdarkness ratios and pH on the removal of NH4＋-N and total P were evaluated. [Result] The results showed that Chlorella al- most removed NH4＋-N and total P at 100% as initial concentrations of NH4＋-N and total P were no more than 55 and 7 mg/L, respectively, whereas the removal ratio of NH4＋-N decreased to 90% with initial NH4＋-N concentration coming up to 75 mg/L. With N-to-P ratios of 5：1, 10：1 and 25：1, Chlorella completely removed NH4＋-N within 4 d, while the removal ratio of total P reached almost 100% within 7 d, with different N-to-P ratios. With L./D ratios of 24 h： 0 h and 12 h： 12 h as well as the initial concentrations of NH4＋-N at 30 mg/L and total P at 7 mg/L, the removing ra- tio of NH4＋-N and total P almost achieved 100% by Chlorella, and the removing ra- tio under L/D ratio of 24 h：0 h proved much faster. The optimal pH range for Chlorella to remove NH4＋-N and total P was 7-8. [Conclusion] The research pro- vides references for wastewater treatment in biological way and highly-efficient and environment-friendly treatment in future.展开更多

In the present work,a green and low-cost adsorbent of g-C_3N_4 nanosheets was developed with superior capacity for both cationic and anionic heavy metals. The adsorbent was easily fabricated through one-step calcination of guanidine hydrochloride with thickness less than 1.6 nm and specific surface area of 111.2 m^2·g^(-1). Kinetic and isotherm studies suggest that the adsorption is an endothermic chemisorption process, occurring on the energetically heterogeneous surface based on a hybrid mechanism of multilayer and monolayer adsorption. The tri-s-triazine units and surface N-containing groups of g-C_3N_4 nanosheets are proposed to be responsible for the adsorption process.Further study on pH demonstrates that electrostatic interaction plays an important role. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cd(II), Pb(II), and Cr(VI) on g-C_3N_4 nanosheets is 123.205 mg·g^(-1), 136.571 mg·g^(-1),and 684.451 mg·g^(-1), respectively. The better adsorption performance of the adsorbent than that of the recently reported nanomaterials and low-cost adsorbents proves its great application potential in the removal of heavy metal contaminants from wastewater. The present paper developed a promising adsorbent which will certainly find applications in wastewater treatment and also provides guiding significance in designing adsorption processes.展开更多

This study investigated the effect wastewater discharge of the physical and chemical properties of marine water in the coastal area over a period of 2 year. Sea water and sediment samples were collected from about 20 different sites. The water and the sediments were collected wastewater/sea water mixing zone at depth 0, 2.5 and 5 m water column depth at a direct wastewater discharging pipe line from different location and similarly from other locations. Water temperature T, electric conductivity (EC), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, total dissolved solid (TDS) and salinity were determined for water samples using field equipment such as pH-meter, DO meter, TDS-/ and EC-meter. On the other hand, NO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>, SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup>, PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup> were determined in the laboratory using chemical methods, details are described in materials and method section. Results showed average and standard deviation of T, EC, DO, pH, TDS and salinity were 22.02°C ± 4.1°C, EC: 58.41 ± 4.8 ms/cm;DO: 6.96 ± 1.8 mg/L;pH: 7.69 ± 0.37;TDS: 30.51 ± 3.29 and salinity 4.39 ± 0.12 (%);whereas, average and standard deviation of NO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>: were 299.8 ± 204.1 mg/L;SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup>, 5736.9 ± 817.1;and PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup>: 164.35 ± 120.7 mg/L. The measured values indicate significant differences due to high value of standard deviation of some measured parameters. This indicates the influence of wastewater discharge in sea water as shown inside the manuscript in the appropriate section. The study recommends efficient treatment of wastewater and reuses it for agricultural purposes instead of discharging it in sea.展开更多

The industrial wastewater containing Cr(Ⅵ) has severely polluted soil and groundwater environments, thereby endangering human health. Therefore, in this paper, a novel functionalized mesoporous adsorbent PPR-Z was synthesized from waste amidoxime resin for adsorbing Cr(Ⅵ). The waste amidoxime resin was first modified with H3PO4 and ZnCl_(2), and subsequently, it was carbonized through slow thermal decomposition. The static adsorption of PPR-Z conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm, indicating that the Cr(Ⅵ) adsorption by PPR-Z is mostly chemical adsorption and exhibits single-layer adsorption. The saturated adsorption capacity of the adsorbent for Cr(Ⅵ) could reach 255.86 mg/g. The adsorbent could effectively reduce Cr(Ⅵ) to Cr(Ⅲ) and decrease the toxicity of Cr(Ⅵ) during adsorption. PPR-Z exhibited Cr(Ⅵ) selectivity in electroplating wastewater. The main mechanisms involved in the Cr(Ⅵ) adsorption are the chemical reduction of Cr(Ⅵ) into Cr(Ⅲ) and electrostatic and coordination interactions. Preparation of PPR-Z not only solves the problem of waste resin treatment but also effectively controls Cr(Ⅵ) pollution and realizes the concept of “treating waste with waste”.展开更多
