Published: November 2009

Degradation and byproducts of microcystin-LR (MC-LR) under different ozone dosages were investigated, and, the pathway and mechanism for the degradation of MC-LR were also elucidated according to the molecular weight of 8 degradation byproducts during ozonation process in this paper. The results showed that there were two pathways for the degradation of MC-LR by ozone. The first one is that the diene structure in Adda side chain was attacked and cleaved, which was named as Adda degradation pathway. The second one is that the pathway of Mdha and Ala degradation, which was that the peptide bond between Mdha and Ala was attacked and cleaved. Adda degradation pathway was dominant and mainly responsible for the degradation of MC-LR byozone. The removal of MC-LR by ozone could reach 92% when O3:MC is 6.

The effective control of eutrophication caused by algae blooms is still the focus of global attention. The traditional dissolved air floatation process for algae removal has a low adhesion efficiency between bubbles and algal cells and a low removal efficiency of organic pollutants. Aiming to address these defects, this study set up an ozone microbubble-enhanced air flotation experiment to explore the removal trends of algal cells and algal organic matter (AOM) pollution.

Morphology, the important feature of bloom-forming cyanobacteria, was studied for its impacts on the harmful cyanobacterial bloom (HCB) treatment by coagulative colloidal ozone microbubbles (CCOMBs). The globally-appeared HCB species - Microcystis aeruginosa (spherical cells, block mass colonies), Microcystis panniformis (spherical cells, flat penniform-like colonies) and Anabaena flos-aquae (filamentous morphology) were chosen as representative species. CCOMBs were generated by modifying the bubble surface and the gas core with coagulant and ozone, respectively.

In recent years, the safety and ecology threat of cyanobacterial burst has drawn wide concern, especially the release of toxic microcystin-LR (MC-LR). To break through the bottleneck of uncomplete MC-LR degradation by conventional physical-chemistry methods, Fenton-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) developed rapidly due to striking degradation efficiency through the potent hydroxyl radicals (HO·) oxidation. Herein, a comprehensive overview is presented on the recent achievements of the various Fenton-based technologies (including conventional Fenton, photo-Fenton, electro-Fenton, ozone-Fenton and sono-Fenton) for MC-LR degradation.

Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) generated by cyanobacteria is a potent toxin threatening human health. In this study the kinetics and mechanisms of MC-LR elimination from drinking water under solar irradiation with free chlorine (the solar/chlorine process) was evaluated. The rate of MC-LR degradation was dramatically enhanced in the solar/chlorine process (1.
