Technology Review and Selection Guide for Industry Wastewater Treatment

Abstract

Water pollution has become one of the most pressing health crises in the world. Water pollution control began as early as the late 1800s. In 2008, there were 14,780 municipal wastewater treatment plants operating in the United States. These plants range in size from a few hundred gallons per day (GPD) to over 1.445 billion gallons (MGD) per day. Wastewater treatment facilities are designed and constructed or upgraded to reduce the amount and diversity of pollutants. This article gives a review of the current industrial wastewater treatment technology in recent years, including treatment principles, advantages and disadvantages of each method, and the corresponding applications. Also, this article reviewed two common biological technologies Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidation (ANAMMOX) and Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactor (ANMBR) technology, by assessing their advantages, disadvantages, and costs, and provides resources for further technical research. This article can serve as a guide for anyone seeking information on innovative and emerging industry wastewater treatment technologies.

Microplastics in the Ecosystem: A Systematic Review of the Methods for Their Detection and Removal

“…Te biological approach utilizes microorganisms like bacteria and fungi to break down MPs and organic substances in wastewater through aerobic and anaerobic processes. Te research conducted by [151] suggests that aerobic processes are more efcient in degrading organic matter and MPs than anaerobic processes, which are primarily used for sludge stabilization. According to [152], after treatment, a total of 2.743 MP/kg (dw) are left in the sludge, indicating that microorganisms are capable of removing MPs when enzymatic activities occur [153].…”

Cosmetic wastewater treatment technologies: a review

“…and physical barriers to extract the pollutants. Sedimentation, membranes, electro-dialysis, and ion exchange are prime examples of physical treatments (Li 2020 ). Table 2 examines the advantages and constraints thereof.…”

“…Biological processes may be categorized as aerobic or anaerobic. The aerobic ones often tend to achieve better results, while anaerobic bacteria use the notions of resource recovery and utilization to limit the pollution (Li 2020 ). Table 4 describes the advantages and limitations of such approaches.…”

“…In some cases, the coagulant links the colloidal particles through slow agitation. Some materials can be chemically oxidized to procure safer materials such as CO 2 and water (Li 2020 ). Table 6 presents a list of potential chemical treatments as well as their advantages and limitations.…”
