Flue gas lead emission during sludge incineration damages to human health and ecological environment seriously. Therefore, a denitrifying bio-trickling filter (DNBTF) for lead removal in flue gas from sludge incineration was investigated. Lead removal efficiency was up to 90.

Article Synopsis
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), like toluene, are harmful to human health and the environment, but a new method using manganese oxide catalytic membranes shows promise for their removal.
- In a 200-day study, the catalytic membrane biofilm reactor (CMBfR) achieved a toluene removal efficiency of up to 91%, thanks to the synergistic effects of manganese oxide and biofilm bacteria like Pseudomonas and Bacillus.
- Characterization techniques confirmed the presence of manganese defects and oxygen species essential for catalyzing the breakdown of toluene into less harmful substances like CO and water, highlighting the potential for CMBfR in treating VOCs effectively.
Nitrogen oxides (NO) and mercury (Hg) are commonly found coexistent pollutants in combustion flue gas. Ever-increasing emission of atmospheric Hg and NO has caused considerable environmental risks. Traditional flue gas demercuration and denitration techniques have many socioeconomic, technological and environmental drawbacks.
