The objective of this research was to examine the impact of a magnetic ion exchange resin (MIEX) on ozone demand and bromate formation in two different ozonated waters at bench scale. The first raw water had a high bromide ion concentration, a high ozone demand, and was highly colored. Based on experimental findings from the first water, the second water was selected as a model water in which more controlled experiments were performed. The waters were treated with the MIEX resin using jar test procedures to find the optimal MIEX dosage based upon the removal of ultraviolet (UV)-absorbing substances, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and bromide. The optimal resin dosage was chosen for bulk MIEX treatment and subsequent ozonation in a semi-batch reactor. The ozone demand and formation of bromate were analyzed as a function of ozone dosage and dissolved ozone concentration for the MIEX pre-treated water, and compared to the results obtained by ozonating the water without MIEX pre-treatment. The results indicate that pre-treatment of the water with the MIEX resin significantly reduces total organic carbon, DOC, UV absorbance, color, and to some extent, bromide. MIEX pre-treatment of the water prior to ozonation substantially lowered the ozone demand and formation of bromate during subsequent ozonation.

The growing demand for metal production promotes the search for alternative sources and novel modalities in metallurgy. Flotation tailings are an important secondary mineral resource; however, they might pose a potential environmental threat due to containing toxic metals. Therefore, proper leaching reagent selection is required.

Micro-polluted surface waters (MPSWs) draw increased concern for environmental protection. However, traditional treatment methods such as activated sludge, ozone activated carbon, and membrane filtration suffer from high cost and susceptibility to secondary pollution and are rarely used to address MPSWs. Herein, a new stepped combined constructed wetland planted with without additional inputs was developed.

The present study aimed to establish the feasibility of the wastewater treatment process generated from an oleaginous fermentation plant. Treatment of spent fermentation broth (SFB) poses significant environmental challenges due to its high organic load, recalcitrant compounds, and potential toxicity. The synergistic effects of combining ozone-based advanced oxidation process (O-AOP) with biological treatment for the efficient degradation of pollutants in spent fermentation broth.

It is a great challenge for vehicles to satisfy the increasingly stringent emission regulations for pollutants and greenhouse gases. Throughout the history of the development of vehicle emission control technology, catalysts have always been in the core position of vehicle aftertreatment. Aiming to address the significant demand for synergistic control of pollutants and greenhouse gases from vehicles, this review provides a panoramic view of emission control technologies and key aftertreatment catalysts for vehicles using fossil fuels (gasoline, diesel, and natural gas) and carbon-neutral fuels (hydrogen, ammonia, and green alcohols).
