Abstract
Coagulation-sedimentation combined with sponge iron/ozone (CS-SFe/O3) technology was applied to pretreat water-based seed coating wastewater (WSCW) from pesticide manufacturing. Coagulation with polyferric sulfate at a dosage of 1.5 g L-1 and a pH of 8.0 was effective, with color and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rates of 96.8 and 83.4%, respectively. SFe/O3 treatment further reduced the organic content in the effluents, especially concerning the degradation of aromatic pollutants, as demonstrated via ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis), excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectrometry, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analyses. The residual color and COD values of the effluent were 581.0 times and 640.0 mg L-1, respectively, under optimal conditions (ozone concentration of 0.48 mg L-1, SFe dosage of 20.0 g L-1, initial pH of 9.0, and reaction time of 30 min). Organic pollutants were also degraded by the high amounts of HO, which may have been generated via the transformation of ozone into HO on the SFe's surface and in the solution. Meanwhile, the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5)/COD ratio of the WSCW increased, which indicates that the biodegradability improved significantly. The am...Continue Reading
