Removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from municipal wastewater by foam fractionation
Municipal wastewater has a relatively low content of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), compared with other point sources such as landfill leachate and industrial effluents. Nevertheless, it is considered as one of the major point pollution sources. Foam fractionation was previously shown to effectively remove PFAS from different water matrices and to reach a high PFAS enrichment. In this study, the removal of PFAS from municipal wastewater of different origins was investigated. Despite the low foaming potential, it was possible to reach an average removal of the sum of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA), and perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS) of 93%, the removal of the sum of 21 PFAS of 56%, and the removal of the sum of PFAS expressed as PFOA equivalents (ΣPFOAeq) of 91%, without any surfactant addition utilizing a novel approach of foam collection. The PFAS content was reduced to below the limit values for drinking water in Sweden and the anticipated future limit values for surface water in the European Union. The addition of four commercial surfactants and an extract of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from waste activated sludge each enhanced the foam formation. Moreover, a cationic surfactant increased the removal of short-chain PFAS. Additionally, foam fractionation of activated sludge was performed. A considerably lower ΣPFOAeq removal of only 20% was demonstrated, which was explained by a high proportion of PFAS sorbed to sludge. Finally, the study discusses the practical implications of the application of foam fractionation at municipal wastewater treatment plants.
期刊介绍:
Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include:
•Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management;
•Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;
•Drinking water treatment and distribution;
•Potable and non-potable water reuse;
•Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;
•Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;
•Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;
•Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;
•Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;
•Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;
•Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle;
•Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
