The COD removal efficiencies were 97.13 ± 0.91 %, 98.45 ± 0.24 %, and 97.66 ± 0.70 %, respectively, and TP was completely removed in all cases. Under high-load conditions, sludge supplemented with biocarriers not only exhibited a reduced recovery time but also demonstrated enhanced settling performance. Specifically, the SV<sub>30</sub>/SV<sub>5</sub> ratio in R3 and R2 surpassed 0.9 within 10 and 40 days, respectively, whereas R1 stabilized at 0.85 after 30 days. Microbial analysis revealed that the introduction of biocarriers increased microbial diversity, resulting in distinct variations in microbial community structure. These findings indicated that the presence of biocarriers significantly mitigated the adverse effects of high-load conditions and improved sludge settling characteristics, primarily by reducing extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) secretion, enhancing viscosity, and promoting microbial adhesion and species diversity. Consequently, the pollutant removal efficiency was further optimized due to the increased microbial diversity. In summary, the Dirammox process presented a promising approach for high NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>-N wastewater treatment, with biocarriers demonstrating a substantial positive impact.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17528,"journal":{"name":"Journal of water process engineering","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 108194"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144470735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed that optimal 2,4-D removal was achieved by bare CB at pH 2, aided by hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and Lewis acid–base interactions working synergistically.

This reduction primarily resulted from avoiding energy-intensive modification processes and utilizing waste-derived chemicals. The approach also decreased operational costs by 35 %. The adsorption process followed the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models, indicating multi-layer adsorption and chemisorption mechanisms.

Graywater treatment and reuse have emerged as crucial strategies to alleviate pressure on freshwater resources. This study investigates the application of Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) plasma for graywater treatment, a method less explored compared to conventional advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). The treatment involved exposing graywater to post-discharge plasma using air as the carrier gas. Plasma-generated reactive species were introduced into the water through bubbling, ensuring efficient mass transfer and enhancing contaminant degradation. Under optimal operating conditions (applied voltage: 7.6 kV, treatment time: 60 min, gas flow rate: 500 mL/min), the system achieved 90 % removal efficiency in a 30 mL reaction volume with an initial graywater concentration of 600 ppm. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of plasma-based ozonation for graywater treatment. Ionic analysis showed significant reductions in phosphate (from 38.05 ppm to 15.96 ppm) and sulfate (from 13.65 ppm to 6.23 ppm), both of which are critical components of graywater. Scavenger experiments revealed that singlet oxygen (<sup>1</sup>O₂), hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and ozone (O₃) were the primary reactive species responsible for degradation. This study highlights the potential of non-thermal plasma technology as a sustainable and efficient solution for graywater treatment. The findings present a promising approach to addressing global freshwater scarcity through advanced plasma-based oxidation processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17528,"journal":{"name":"Journal of water process engineering","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 108178"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144365897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
