Scavenging tests revealed, that carbonate radicals, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide radicals, and singlet oxygen contributed to the degradation of bisphenol S. At the same operating condition, degradation effectiveness values of 99% and 81% were obtained by ozone combined with sodium percarbonate and hydrogen peroxide, respectively, demonstrating the superiority of sodium percarbonate over hydrogen peroxide in combination with ozone for the degradation of bisphenol S. Low concentration of inorganic anions had a negligible effect on the degradation, while carbonate ions increased the first-order degradation rate constant by 56%.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23714,"journal":{"name":"Water Resources and Industry","volume":"29 ","pages":"Article 100208"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43728225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO-NPs), synthesized from low-cost and readily available magnesite, were used for the treatment of real TWW under batch laboratory conditions. The optimum treatment conditions were 90 min contact time and 10 g MgO-NPs dosage per L of real TWW, under ambient pH and temperature. Results were underpinned by state-of-the-art analytical techniques, including ICP-OES, XRD, XRF, and FIB/EDS-SEM, along with geochemical modelling (PHREEQC). The removal efficiency for the main contaminants that are typically found in TWW was, from higher to lower score, Fe ≥ U ≥ Cr ≥ Mn ≥ Al ≥ Sb ≥ Cu ≥ Ni ≥ TOC ≥ COD≥ <span><math><mrow><msubsup><mrow><mi>S</mi><mi>O</mi></mrow><mn>4</mn><mrow><mn>2</mn><mo>−</mo></mrow></msubsup></mrow></math></span>.

The underlying mechanism for contaminants removal is linked to the scavenging of metals by the MgO-NPs, forming complexes, in combination with alkalinity addition (through MgO dissolution) that lead to contaminants precipitation. The PHREEQC geochemical model confirmed the existence of divalent, trivalent, oxyanions, and multivalent chemical species in MgO-NPs/TWW solution, including complexes. Contaminants attenuation was achieved through precipitation, co-precipitation, adsorption, and co-adsorption, while these were removed as hydroxides, sulfides, carbonates, oxide, and oxyhydrosulfates. Overall, results highlight the great potential of MgO-NPs for the sustainable management of real TWW.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23714,"journal":{"name":"Water Resources and Industry","volume":"29 ","pages":"Article 100205"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46585109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Significant differences exist between Mexican regions regarding the availability of renewable water and water system distribution. Moreover, water governance in the country is inefficient due to the lack of transparency in the water policies. Therefore, the article aims to investigate whether there is a direct relationship between water system management efficiency and water system improvement efficiency and how the efficiency reflects the size of the population and the availability of renewable water in each state. For this, a two-stage DEA model is constructed to evaluate the water system management efficiency in Mexico. The results indicate high average water management efficiency but very low efficiency in the water system improvements. Furthermore, immense differences in the water system efficiency can be observed with respect to the characteristics and adopted policies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23714,"journal":{"name":"Water Resources and Industry","volume":"29 ","pages":"Article 100200"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45153709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
