Article Synopsis
  • This study developed a predictive model for how well tetracycline (TC) adsorbs onto biochar (BC) using four machine learning techniques, analyzing data from 295 experiments.
  • The Random Forest model outperformed others in prediction accuracy, while specific surface area and particle size of BC were found to significantly impact TC adsorption efficiency.
  • The TC-to-BC ratio was identified as the key factor influencing adsorption, and the model can help select the most effective BC for treating TC in wastewater.

Oily sludge is a hazardous waste. If not handled properly, it can not only pollute the environment but also endanger human health. This study is the first to use a response surface method to optimize the main parameters of rhamnolipid-based recovery of oil from oily sludge.

This study used short process nitrification sludge to investigate the effect of high free ammonia (FA) on ammonia escape during ammonia oxidation. A sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to study the ammonia escape process under different FA concentrations. The results indicate that FA in water is usually combined with water molecules at lower FA concentrations to produce stable NH·HO with almost no ammonia escape.
