In order to improve the removal efficiencies of phosphate and oils, to mitigate the membrane fouling, coagulation for ceramic membrane microfiltration of oily wastewater was performed. The results of filtration tests show that the membrane fouling decreased and the permeate flux and quality increased with coagulation as pretreatment. At the coagulant Ca (OH)2 dosage of 900 mg/L, the removal efficiency of phosphate was increased from 46.4% without coagulation to 99.6%; the removal of COD and oils were 97.0% and 99.8%, respectively. And the permeate flux was about 70% greater than that when Ca(OH)2 was not used. The permeate obtained from coagulation and microfiltration can be reused as make-up water, and the recommended operation conditions for pilot and industrial application are transmembrane pressure of 0.10 MPa and cross-flow velocity of 5 m/s. The comparison results show that 0.2 μm ZrO2 microfilter with coagulation could be used to perform the filtration rather than conventional ultrafilter, with very substantial gain in flux and removal efficiency of phosphate.展开更多

Results have shown a reduction in the turbidity rates when using activated sludge at Rustumiya plant of 76.3 to 2.653 NTU in pre-treatment and final tank respectively, also COD (chemical oxygen demand) amount reduced from 427.263 to 82 mg/L respectively, In addition, concentrations of phosphates and nitrates decreased from 12.083 to 8.426 mg/L and 3.59 to 2.43 mg/L respectively, by removing 30.2% and 32.3% respectively of the final tank. The ratio of ammonia removing was 89.6% for ammonia, reducing process from 1358 to 140 mg/L. Furthermore, sulfates concentration decreased from 30.883 to 23.337 mg/L. However, the system in the anaerobic reactor depends on non-aerated activated sludge. Results show turbidity reduced from 12.5 to 2 NTU in pre-treatment and final tank respectively, also the COD mount reduced from 191 to 130 mg/L, the percentage removal of 31.9%. In addition phosphates, nitrates and sulfates concentrations were decreased by using activated sludge from 17.15 to 8.15, 1.2 to 0.1 and 28 to 9.2 mg/L respectively. The ammonia concentration has reduced from 1.2 to 0. i mg/L where at a removal percentage of 90.9%.展开更多

The results showed that the best removal efficiency of Sb in mineral processing wastewater could reach 99.75% in 4 d under the optimum conditions of 30 ℃, microbial inoculated quantity 5%, and pH value at 2.0. After the treatment, the concentration of Sb in wastewater was reduced from 122.21 to 0.30mg/L, which was lower than the local industrial wastewater discharge standard of0.50 mg/L.展开更多

A series of La(III)- modified Y zeolites with different La/Y zeolite mass ratios were characterized by X-ray diffi'action, X-ray fluores- cence and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis. Batch experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of various experimental parameters, such as pH, ionic strength, coexisting anions (CO32 , Cl-, SO24- and NO3-) and temperature, on the phosphate adsorption. The capacity of the La (III)-modified Y zeolite to remove phosphate increased as the La/Y zeolite mass ratio increased and after 4 h, a phosphate removal efficiency of 95% was achieved for a La/Y zeolite mass ratio of 0.10. The equilibrium adsorption isotherm data correlated better to the Langmuir model than the Freundlich model and the data followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic equation.展开更多
