The process involving the combination of powdered activated carbon (PAC) and biomass in the aeration basin of conventional continuous‐flow activated sludge system, known as the PACT process, has proven to be effective for treating toxic pollutants present in industrial wastewaters. In view of the many advantages of sequencing batch reactors (SBR) operationally, the objective of this study is to evaluate the PACT process under SBR operation to treat wastewater containing Acid Blue 25 (AR) and Basic Yellow 2 dyes (BR). The SBR systems were operated with FILL, REACT, SETTLE and DRAW periods in the ratio of 0.25:3.75: 1.0:1.0 for a cycle time of 6 h. The average COD and AR removal efficiencies were 89% and 93%, respectively with PAC addition compared to 76% and 7%, respectively, without PAC addition. In the case of BR, the average removal efficiencies of COD and dye increased from 52% and 9% to 90% and 93%, respectively, with PAC addition. Kinetic study conducted for the REACT period showed that both dyes exhibited a very pronounced inhibitory effect on the activities of the microorganisms. The addition of PAC was capable of reducing the inhibitory effect of only BR but not AR on the microorganisms. 相似文献

Produced water is the largest wastestream of oil and gas exploration but its chemical composition hinders its beneficial use. Effective treatment and reuse of produced water can mitigate scarcity of fresh water, especially in arid areas. Presence of inorganic compounds such as boron in produced water renders its beneficial use difficult. In this study, boron removal from produced water was investigated. Synthetic wastewater was prepared simulating the range of boron concentrations in produced water. Four operating parameters pH (3–11), charge loading (1200–3600 Ah/m3), contact time (15–90 min) and concentration (10–30 mg/L) were selected and their optimum conditions investigated. The obtained optimum conditions were applied to treat real produced water. Residual boron concentration of 0.3 mg/L was obtained from initial boron concentration of 15 mg/L in real produced water at optimum conditions of pH 7, charge loading 2400 Ah/m3 and contact time 90 min. Boron adsorption could be represented by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Electrocoagulation can be used for the effective removal of boron from produced water. 相似文献
A spent fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst containing lanthanum (La) was used as a novel adsorbent for phosphorus (P) in simulated wastewater. The experiments were conducted in a batch system to optimize the operation variables, including pH, calcination temperature, shaking time, solid-liquid ratio, and reaction temperature under three initial P-concentrations (C0 = 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 mg/L). Orthogonal analysis was used to determine that the initial P-concentration was the most important parameter for P removal. The P-removal rate exceeded 99% and the spent FCC catalyst was more suitable for use in low P-concentration wastewater (C0 <5.0 mg/L). Isotherms, thermodynamics and dynamics of adsorption are used to analyze the mechanism of phosphorus removal. The results show that the adsorption is an endothermic reaction with high affinity and poor reversibility, which indicates a low risk of second releasing of phosphate. Moreover, chemical and physical adsorption coexist in this adsorption process with LaPO4 and KH2PO4 formed on the spent FCC catalyst as the adsorption product. These results demonstrate that the spent FCC catalyst containing La is a potential adsorbent for P-removal from wastewater, which allows recycling of the spent FCC catalyst to improve the quality of water body.
