Abstract:
To further explore the safety assurance technology for reclaimed water, a pilot ozone oxidation-biological activated coke filtration system (O3-BACK) was built and its effects on the removal of organic pollutants and pathogenic bacteria from secondary effluents of municipal wastewater treatment plants, as well as on the comprehensive biotoxicity of luminescent bacteria were investigated. Results showed that the development of activated coke filtration column from adsorption saturation to biological activated coke could be divided into three stages. With the introduction of O3 pretreatment unit, the average removal amount and removal rate of CODCr by subsequent BACK columns in the stabilization period increased by 20.81% and 28.35% respectively, compared with BACK filtration alone. The effluent CODCr, UV254, chromaticity, and turbidity of BACK column maintained at 12.74 mg/L, 0.04 cm-1, 2 degree, and 0.75 NTU. O3 oxidation was effective in the removal of humic substances, aromatic protein fluorescent fractions, and trace organic pollutants. Except for perfluorooctanoic acid, the concentrations of 11 trace organics such as sulfamethoxazole in BACK effluent were reduced to less than 10 ng/L. O3 inactivated fecal coliform (FC) by nearly 2log, and the FC concentration in BACK effluent was 31-504 MPN/L, meeting the requirement of 'reclaimed water for aesthetic environment use' with FC -1 (GB/T 18921-2019). The luminous intensity inhibition rate (IR) of O3 oxidized effluent increased, with an average value of 11%, while the IR value of the final effluent after the BACK column was always negative, with no biotoxicity. The O3-BACK can effectively reduce pollutants while ensuring the water safety of reclaimed water, providing a reliable technical option for wastewater reclamation and reuse. © 2022 Harbin Institute of Technology.
