However, industrial wastewater and natural contaminated sites usually contain abundant inorganic ions, like the chloride ion (Cl−), which significantly affectAOPs, but their influence on MG-activated AOPs still remains unclear. Through the study of three commonly used oxidants, hydrogen peroxide (H_(2)O_(2)), peroxydisulfate (PDS), and peroxymonosulfate (PMS), theeffect of Cl− on the FeSiB-catalyzed process of degradation of the typical azo dye Orange Ⅱ was investigated. Evidence indicates that the addition of Cl− resulted in the monotonous inhibition of the degradation process when the H_(2)O_(2)/FeSiB and PDS/FeSiB systems were employed, but promoted effect wasdetected with the PMS/FeSiB system, which is different from the previously observed dual effect of Cl−.It is closely relative with FeSiB induced unique variety of degradation pathways, including radicals, nonradicals (^(1)O_(2)), and direct reduction degradation. Moreover, the presence of Cl− significantly affected thesystems’ absorbable organic halogen content and the amount of Fe leached into the solution. The resultsof this work will provide essential references for Fe-based MG used as AOP catalysts in field applicationsand the development of advanced MGs with excellent adaptability to complex environments.展开更多

Significant differences of heavy metal removal efficiencies were observed among four activated sludge processes. The removal efficiency for As(75.5%) in the oxidation ditch(OD) process is significantly higher than that in the conventional activated sludge(CAS) process(38.6%) or sequencing batch reactor(SBR) process(51.4%). The mean removal efficiencies for Cu and Ni in the OD process are 90.5% and 46.7%, respectively, while low mean removal efficiencies are observed for Cu(69.9%) and Ni(16.5%), respectively, in the SBR process. The removal efficiencies for Cu and Ni in the OD process are significantly higher than those in the anaerobic-anoxic-oxic(A2-O) process. These results highlight the differences of removal efficiencies for heavy metals in different processes and should be considered when selecting a wastewater treatment process.展开更多
