    Abstract Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) was a kind of advanced oxidation mode. There were defects in the common HC devices, such as high energy consumption, low efficiency, and easy plugging. In order to effectively utilize HC, it was urgent to research new HC devices and used them together with other traditional water treatment methods. Ozone was widely used as a water treatment agent that does not produce harmful by-products. Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) was efficient and cheap, but too much chlorine will be harmful to water. The combination of ozone and NaClO with the HC device of propeller orifice plate can improve the dissolution and utilization rate of ozone in wastewater, reduce the use of NaClO, and avoid the generation of residual chlorine. The degradation rate reached 99.9% when the mole ratio γ of NaClO to ammonia nitrogen (NH

    Abstract Upon contacting with water, cold plasma should produce numerous ozone molecules and free electrons at room temperature. In this study, a cold plasma generator was used to break the walls of residual activated sludge obtained from domestic sewage. The impact was mainly influenced by the ozone generated. With 800 W power, sludge wastewater pH of 12.0, and under continuous treatment for 10 h, the system’s reduction efficiency for the dry sludge was ≈90%. Furthermore, the organic matter content (especially protein) of the upper layer of the sludge solution increased a lot after the sludge digestion. This observation proved the reduction of sludge from both sides. Moreover, when the cold plasma technique was compared with thermal acid hydrolysis, thermal alkali hydrolysis, and ultrasonication for extracting protein from activated sludge, cold plasma wall-breaking sludge exhibited the highest efficiency, reaching 38.2% under ambient temperature. After the analysis, the toxic metal content in the extracted protein was near zero, which is a level other protein extraction methods via sludge breaking have not achieved to date, we attribute this efficiency to free electrons the cold plasma produce. These species promote the transformation of metal ions into atomic metals, thereby facilitating their removal.

    Abstract The disposal processes like dewatering and anaerobic digestion (AD) are commonly utilized to reduce the volume of sludge and recover energy. Thermal hydrolysis process is widely used as a pretreatment for sludge AD, which can change rheological properties and dehydration of sludge irreversibly. The experiment was designed to evaluate the effect of high-temperature thermal hydrolysis (120, 130, 145, 160 and 170°C) for 60 min on sludge rheological properties, as well as its dewaterability. Rheological tests were performed at (20 ± 0.1)°C with a HAAKE Viscotester 550 Rotary Viscometer. Both raw and thermal hydrolysis sludge has a considerable reduction on apparent viscosity and yield stress, but a somewhat increase in thixotropy. With the increase of temperature, the sludge flow behaviour index n increases linearly, while the consistency coefficient k follows the law of linear decline, showing that thermal hydrolysis can weaken the non-Newtonian fluid properties and then improve sludge fluidity. The dewaterability increases linearly with the temperature. Besides, the dewaterability of high-temperature thermal hydrolysis processes sludge was always significantly better than raw sludge as its mud cake has a much larger solid content. Notably, the increase in flow performance index n and the decrease of thixotropy kinetic coefficient K caused by thermal hydrolysis are all linear with the enhancement of dewaterability, which demonstrates that rheological indicators can be a new tool to evaluate the dewaterability of sludge.

    Abstract Three-dimensional fluorescence spectrometer was adopted for the content analysis of different types of organics in coking wastewater before biochemical treatment and through biochemical treatment, and the model of parallel factors was employed to analyze fluorescence components and contents. It was found that tryptophan-like components were the most easily degraded by biology, while humic-like components were the least easily degraded. Meanwhile, it had been seen that the change trends over time of total fluorescence densities of proteinoid fluorescence, and degradable organic fluorescence were highly consistent with that of parameter values of COD, NH3-N in this wastewater after analyzing the trends of the two indexes. It was proved that the three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum method was appropriate for the accurate degradation analysis of wastewater components.
