Understanding the risks associated with potable reuse is essential to ensuring that public health is protected from waterborne pathogens. This paper provides a review on the studies that have performed quantitative microbial risk assessments (QMRAs) on potable reuse. The 30 articles included here studied direct potable reuse (DPR), indirect potable reuse (IPR), and/or <em>de facto</em> reuse (DFR), and a variety of pathogens, including norovirus, adenovirus, <em>Cryptosporidium</em>, <em>Giardia</em>, <em>Campylobacter</em>, and <em>Salmonella</em>. The QMRAs were either ‘top-down’ or regulations-focused, where log reduction targets (LRTs) were determined based on initial (<em>e.g.</em>, raw wastewater) pathogen concentrations and risk goals (<em>e.g.</em>, 10<small>⁻⁴</small> annual risk benchmark), or ‘bottom-up’ or risk-estimation-focused, where risks were calculated based on known pathogen concentrations and observed/credited log reduction values (LRVs). Some studies incorporated process failures and pathogen decay, which were often a driving factor for risk, but several studies omitted one or both. Many studies compared multiple treatment trains (<em>e.g.</em>, carbon-based advanced treatment (CBAT) <em>vs.</em> reverse-osmosis-based advanced treatment (RBAT)). They found that treatment-based differences were pathogen-dependent because certain processes are better able to inactivate or remove certain pathogens. Many factors influence the risks reported in the various studies, including the assumed ratios of gene copies to infectious units (GC : IU), assumptions related to ingestion volume and frequency, dynamic <em>vs.</em> static modeling, and Bayesian approaches. The LRTs for the top-down QMRAs varied within and between studies, depending partially on the pathogen concentrations used and whether redundancy was included. The key findings from this review were that while QMRAs often have different goals warranting different assumptions, it is essential that researchers report these assumptions and their justifications so that policymakers and regulators fully understand their implications to avoid overly stringent or nonprotective regulations.</p>","PeriodicalId":75,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science: Water Research & Technology","volume":" 3","pages":" 542-559"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2025/ew/d4ew00661e?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143513063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to enhance the Fenton oxidation treatment of saline organic wastewater using nanobioparticle-prepared biochar in a traditional Fenton system to address these shortcomings. Initially, nano-bioparticles of FeS were synthesized using <em>Bacillus cereus</em> and carbonized at 700 °C under the protection of argon to produce biochar, which was characterized by SEM, EDS, and XRD. Subsequently, the efficiency and optimal operational conditions of the enhanced Fenton system for treating saline organic wastewater were investigated.

Under these conditions, the COD removal efficiency of the enhanced Fenton system reached 50.5%, showing a significant improvement compared to the traditional Fenton system (38.8%). Finally, the mechanism of strengthening the Fenton reaction by FeS nano-biochar was explored from four aspects: ·OH generation, H<small>₂</small>O<small>₂</small> consumption, Fe(<small>II</small>) to Fe(<small>III</small>) conversion, and redox capability.

The catalysts were characterized using FTIR, XRD, FESEM, and XPS techniques, and their performance in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for OTC degradation was assessed. Results showed that the ZVI@BC nanocomposite outperformed ZVI@RH and ZVI@HC in OTC removal through heterogeneous Fenton-like processes. The addition of PMS further enhanced OTC degradation by generating more reactive oxygen species (ROS), making the process more efficient than the Fenton process alone. The higher surface defects in BC, resulting from pyrolysis, improved OTC adsorption and degradation, and facilitated more effective ZVI-mediated PMS activation in ZVI@BC, achieving nearly 98.3% OTC removal from the aqueous solution. The involvement of various ROS in OTC degradation was examined using radical scavengers, and DFT calculations proposed a degradation pathway by identifying ROS attack sites on the OTC chromophore.

Nitrate forms reactive nitrogen species under certain UV wavelengths that can also interact with organic matter and change its properties in a way that increases post-AOP DBP formation.
