Wastewater generated from corn starch processing exhibits high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and elevated concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus, and is typically treated using combined anaerobic-aerobic processes. However, effluent from secondary biological treatment still contains considerable phosphorus, with PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup>-P concentrations exceeding 70 mg/L. Consequently, implementing water and phosphorus recovery processes as an alternative to conventional chemical removal methods aligns with circular economy principles and supports sustainable development goals. This study investigated the feasibility of recovering phosphorus and water from the effluent of secondary sedimentation tanks in corn starch processing wastewater using a forward osmosis-hydroxyapatite (FO-HAP) combined process and optimized the operational parameters. In the FO unit, the phosphorus concentration increased 5.9-fold compared to the feed water, reaching a PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup>-P level of 210.2 mg/L, with a water recovery rate of 80 %. In the HAP-induced crystallization unit, phosphorus removal efficiency reached 98 %, and the purity of the synthesized HAP was 75 % under optimal conditions (stirring intensity of 200 rpm, pH of 10, Ca/P molar ratio of 3). Overall, the FO-HAP combined process provides an effective approach for recovering phosphorus and water from secondary effluent in corn starch processing, offering both a practical technical solution and a theoretical basis for wastewater treatment and resource utilization in the industry.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11725,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Technology & Innovation","volume":"39 ","pages":"Article 104277"},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144114977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ion-adsorption deposits (IADs) represent the primary sources of heavy REEs, yet their mining has caused severe environmental impacts. Electrokinetic mining (EKM), a sustainable alternative, promises efficient REE recovery from IADs. However, the electrokinetic transport mechanisms of REEs in IADs remain unclear, and predictive models are lacking. Here, we develop an integrated EKM (IEKM) model that rigorously incorporates coupled effects of diffusion, convection, electromigration, electroosmosis, and electrolysis to resolve REE transport in IADs. The IEKM model was validated using a 14-ton-scale IAD EKM, accurately simulating REE and leaching agent (NH₄⁺) ion transport. The predicted REE recovery efficiency is 80.97 % after 11 days of EKM, aligning with experimental results (88.28 ± 17.00 %). Significantly, the IEKM model quantitatively determines that diffusion, convection, electromigration, electroosmosis, and electrolysis contribute 3.06 %, 2.90 %, 82.91 %, 0.20 %, and 10.93 %, respectively, to REE transport. Unexpectedly, electromigration emerges as the dominant mechanism governing REE electrokinetic transport in IADs with significant influence by electrolysis, while electroosmosis exhibits negligible contribution, contradicting conventional expectations. Furthermore, electrolysis consumed 57.95 % of input energy due to water splitting, leaving only 42.05 % for direct REE transport.

In this study, the impact of functional membrane coverage (FM) on the transformation of nitrogen and sulfur compounds during sludge composting was studied, along with an investigation into the microbial mechanisms underlying nitrogen and sulfur cycling.

In this study, based on high-throughput sequencing technology, we revealed the microbial community composition and diversity characteristics of four major coastal wetlands in Bohai Bay, including Lagoon &amp; Estuary (L&amp;E), <em>Suaeda</em> (SU), Freshwater-<em>Phragmites</em> (F-P), and Freshwater-Weeds (F-W), and discussed their relationship with environmental factors. The results showed that dominant microbial communities had clear indicative significance for corresponding wetlands. In the L&amp;E wetlands, the microbial communities are characterized by dominant taxa spanning multiple taxonomic ranks: Desulfobacterota, Gammaproteobacteria, and Desulfuromonadia. In SU wetlands, the indicator taxa comprised Flavobacteriales, Balneolales, and Planococcaceae. In F-P wetlands, the differentially abundant taxa included Acidobacteriota, Myxococcota, Gemmatimonadota, and Planctomycetota. Salinity and vegetation cover were the most important factors affecting soil microbial composition in Bohai Bay coastal wetlands. F-P wetlands had the highest richness and evenness of microbial species, followed by L&amp;E, F-W, and SU wetlands. Na<sup>+</sup> and Cr contents were negatively correlated with microbial diversity, while vegetation cover, TOC and P contents were positively correlated with microbial diversity. Our study emphasized the significance of understanding the relationship between microbial community composition and environmental factors in different wetlands in Bohai Bay, and lay a foundation for wetland biodiversity conservation and reconstruction of past ecosystem succession processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11725,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Technology & Innovation","volume":"39 ","pages":"Article 104263"},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144105705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
