About forty kinds of nitrogen loading removal rate were studied in field in 15 months, inflow and outflow loading rules of reeds/Zizania caduciflora/mixing and no-plant bed were discussed in different inflow loading. The four kinds SFS inflow loading changed from 400 mg x (m2 x d)(-1) to 8 000 mg x (m2d)(-1), while outflow loading is less than 7,000 mg (m2 d)(-1). Results show that outflow loading increase with the increase of inflow loading, linear relation is obvious. Total nitrogen removal rate has the same trend at low inflow loading. But in high inflow loading TN removal rate has much variation. The system had better run between 2,000 mg x (m2 x d)(-1) and 4,000 mg x (m2 x d)( -1) inflow loading. Average removal rate in between 1062 mg x (m2 x d)(-1) and 2 007 mg x (m2 x d)(-1). Plant SFS removal rate is better than no-plant SFS. TN removal rate of reed and zizania caduciflora bed is 63 % and 27 % higher than no-plant bed. Plant harvesting is unimportant and contributes less than 5% of TN removal loading, plant can improve system microenviroment and hydrology condition which could increase TN removal rate. The results provided deep insight to SFS nitrogen removal and reference to SFS design.

Arsenic contamination of water endangers the health of millions of people worldwide, affecting certain countries and regions with especial severity. Interest in the use of Fe-based metal organic frameworks (MOFs) to remove inorganic arsenic species has increased due to their stability and adsorptive properties. In this study, the performance of a synthesized Nano-{Fe-BTC} MOF, containing iron oxide octahedral chains connected by trimesic acid linkers, in adsorbing As(III) and As(V) species was investigated and compared with commercial BasoliteF300 MOF.

The availability of clean water is fundamental for maintaining sustainable environments and human ecosystems. Capacitive deionization offers a cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and energy-efficient solution to meet the rising demand for clean water. Electrode materials based on pseudocapacitive adsorption have attracted significant attention in capacitive deionization due to their relatively high desalination capacity.

Molybdate, an oxidized form of molybdenum, facilitates molybdenum to be taken into cell, and thus to be included as a cofactor in the structure of enzymes necessary to ensure homeostasis. Although this compound provides the catalysis and electron transport of many biochemical reactions, it causes serious health problems in animals at high concentrations. For this reason, its recovery of water resources is one of the main subjects of scientific studies called bioremediaiton.
