To resolve the shortage of carbon source during traditional denitrification used to treat secondary effluent of acrylic fiber wastewater, tri-stage biofilm reactor was used, the influence of pH of influent, HRT, and NH4(+) -N concentration in raw water on NH4(+) -N removal was investigated. Efficiency of TN removal was also investigated. It demonstrated that the optimal HRT and pH were 24 hours and 7.8-8.0 respectively. Under these conditions the removal efficiencies of NH4(+) -N and TN were 94. 6% and 53% respectively. And the removal efficiency of NH4(+) -N had no relationship with the concentration of the inflow water. With absence of organic carbon source in the reactor, efficiency of TN removal was obvious, the average and the highest removal efficiencies of TN were 53% and 66% respectively, efficiency of secondary effluent of acrylic fiber wastewater nitrogen removal was obvious when treated with Tri-stage biofilm reactor.

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.

Cyanobacterial wastewater-based biorefineries are a sustainable alternative to obtain high-value products with reduced costs. This study aimed to obtain phycobiliproteins and carotenoids, along with biogas from a wastewater-borne cyanobacterium grown in secondary effluent from an urban wastewater treatment plant, namely treated wastewater. For the first time, the presence of contaminants of emerging concern in concentrated pigment extracts was assessed.

Background: Enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) systems utilize phosphorus-accumulating organisms (PAOs) to remove phosphorus from wastewater since excessive phosphorus in water bodies can lead to eutrophication. This study aimed to characterize a newly isolated PAO strain for its potential application in EBPR systems and to screen for additional biotechnological potential. Here, sequencing allowed for genomic analysis, identifying the genes and molecules involved, and exploring other potentials.

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and its antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are potential threats to public health. Microwave catalytic technology is an efficient environmental remediation technology, and a reasonable design of the catalyst enables the system to achieve an ideal remediation effect under low microwave power. In this study, a microwave catalyst (FeCO-2) that activates molecular oxygen (O) was designed on the basis of rational theoretical organization.
