[Pollution Characteristics, Source Analysis, and Ecological Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in the Third Drain of Ningxia].

This study aimed to investigate the contamination characteristics, sources, and ecological risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons （PAHs） in the Third Drain of Ningxia. Water samples were collected in November 2021, March 2022, and July 2022, respectively. A total of 16 priority PAHs were quantitatively detected using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry （GC-MS）.

[Pollution Characteristics and Risk Assessment of Typical Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals in Drains Flowing into the Yellow River of Ningxia].

Solid-phase extraction and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry were used to detect and analyze the contamination of nine typical endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in drains flowing into the Yellow River of Ningxia. Sources of these EDCs were analyzed, and their risks were assessed. The results showed that EDCs were detected in drains at all 33 sampling sites, with total concentrations （ΣEDCs） of 82.

Extracellular polymeric substances trigger microbial immigration from partial denitrification (PD) to anammox biofilms in a long-term operated PD/anammox process in low-strength wastewater.

The immigration of microbial communities in a synergistic partial denitrification/anammox (SPDA) system was investigated in a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) inoculated with partial denitrification (PD) and anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) biofilms. The SPDA system was operated at 25 ± 1 °C over 260 days. The total nitrogen (TN) of the effluent was only 3.

[Contamination Characteristics and Ecological Risk Assessment of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) in the Third Drain of Ningxia].

To investigate the contamination characteristics and potential ecological risks of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the Third Drain of Ningxia, 14 PPCPs were detected and analyzed using solid-phase extraction coupled with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The results showed that these 14 PPCPs were detected in the Third Drain and its confluent streams, with total concentrations of 117.74-1947.

Study on discharge characteristics of fermentor and oak barrel washing wastewater from typical wineries in Ningxia, China.

Wine wastewater management is critical to the sustainable development of the wine industry. In this study, three wineries were selected with growing wine production scales of Ningxia. The number of fermentors and oak barrels washing wastewater were counted during the production period of 2019.

[Contamination Characteristics and Ecological Risk Assessment of Antibiotics in the Third Drain of Ningxia].

Solid-phase extraction and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrostatic field orbit hydrazine mass spectrometry were used to detect and analyze the contamination of nine antibiotics including sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, quinolones, and lincomycin in the third drain of Ningxia. Correlations between the antibiotic concentration and water quality indexes were explored, and the ecological risks were evaluated. The results showed that seven antibiotics were detected in the third drain and its confluent stream, with the total concentrations of 14.
