There are few studies on seaweed polysaccharides with UV/HO treatment, so the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of UV/HO treatment on physicochemical properties and RAW 264.7 cells responses of polysaccharides from Sargassum fusiforme (PSF). Results showed that the contents of reducing sugar and sulfate in PSF with UV/HO treatment for 2 h increased by 202.86% and 31.77%, respectively, and the contents of total sugar, protein and uronic acid decreased by 14.29%, 57.11% and 43.18% compared with those of original polysaccharides. In addition, UV/HO treatment did not change the monosaccharide types of original polysaccharides, but it could change its monosaccharide composition and surface morphology. Besides, polysaccharides after UV/HO treatment for 0.5-2 h had lower toxicity than original polysaccharides in RAW 264.7 cells. Typically, PSF with UV/HO treatment for 2 h (PSF-T2) could effectively inhibit pro-inflammatory molecules production (including NO, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α), and down-regulate related genes expression (including Tlr4, Irak, Il-1β, Il-6, Il-12 and Tnf-α). Therefore, UV/HO treatment is a potential way to prepare polysaccharide with better anti-inflammatory activity.

Accelerated transformation of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate surfactant in the UV/chlorine process: Kinetics and formation of chlorinated disinfection by-products.

Key Laboratory of Drinking Water Science and Technology, Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100085, China; University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100049, China.

The degradation kinetics of Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) surfactant in the UV/chlorine process was comprehensively investigated, and the formation of chlorinated disinfection by-products (Cl-DBPs) were determined. Results showed that the degradation of SDBS by UV, chlorine and UV/chlorine all followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. The rate constant by UV/chlorine in ultrapure water was approximately 3 times higher than the sum of those by UV and chlorine, and decreased from 0.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how different UV doses affect the breakdown of carbamazepine (CBZ) in wastewater, specifically using UV-C radiation and hydrogen peroxide (HO).
  • It finds that higher UV intensity leads to a faster degradation rate of CBZ, with over 95% removal occurring within 4 minutes when an optimal HO dose is applied.
  • The research suggests that adding HO in a wastewater treatment process could improve CBZ removal, predicting over 60% degradation during UV disinfection in treatment plants.

The objective of this study was to optimize UV/HO and ozonation systems by means of an experimental design using as a response the efficiency of the operational conditions to remove the methylene blue (MB) dye. Two classes of experimental planning were used: the Doehlert matrix (DM) and the central composite design (CCD). The most important variables for each process were hydrogen peroxide concentration, the ratio of illuminated volume/total volume of the reactor and recirculation flow rate for UV/HO, and ozone flow rate, consumed ozone and MB concentration for the ozonation.
