Ferrate pretreatment-anaerobic fermentation enhances medium-chain fatty acids production from waste activated sludge: Performance and mechanisms

Yufen Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, a promising ferrate-based technique was proposed to enhance the production of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) from waste activated sludge (WAS). The technique accelerates the disintegration and transformation of WAS, and eliminates the competitive inhibition of methanogens, resulting in a significant increase in MCFAs production. Mechanism exploration shows that ferrate effectively destroys EPS and cytoderm in WAS, allowing for the transfer of organics to soluble phase and intermediates. Additionally, ferrate facilitates hydrolysis, acidification, and chain elongation (CE) while suppressing methanogenesis, promoting the conversion of intermediates to MCFAs. Furthermore, ferrate pretreatment screens key microorganisms and up-regulates functional genes involved in CE pathways, providing potential electron shuttles for chain elongation.

Reduced sulfide and methane in rising main sewer via calcium peroxide dosing: Insights from microbial physiological characteristics, metabolisms and community traits

Haixiao Guo et al.

Summary: This study fills the research gap regarding the potential of calcium peroxide (CaO2) in reducing sulfide and methane emissions from sewers. The results showed that a one-time dose of 0.2% (w/v) CaO2 with 12-hour exposure could decrease the average sulfide and methane production by 80% over one week. Mechanistic analysis revealed that CaO2 caused breakdown of the extracellular polymeric matrix, damage to cell membranes, and an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species, leading to impaired metabolic pathways and enzymatic activities. Although this study expands the application of CaO2 and provides insights into advanced oxidation-based technology in sewer management, further investigation is needed to assess the pipe scale risk associated with the release of calcium ions.

Enhancing anaerobic fermentation of waste activated sludge by investigating multiple electrochemical pretreatment conditions: Performance, modeling and microbial dynamics

Shihao Xi et al.

Summary: Electrochemical pretreatment (EPT) is an efficient technology to improve volatile fatty acids (VFAs) production from anaerobic fermentation of waste activated sludge (WAS). This study examined the combined effects of different current intensities, electrolyte NaCl dosage, and pretreatment time on VFAs production. The results showed that VFAs production was significantly increased by 51.6% when EPT was conducted at 1.0 A, 1.0 g/L, and 60 min. Response surface methodology determined the optimal EPT conditions to be 1.0 A, 1.2 g/L, and 66 min. The potential mechanisms involved enhanced solubilization and hydrolysis of WAS and selective inactivation of methanogens, leading to the enrichment of acidogenic bacteria and increased VFAs production.

Summary: This study demonstrated that the use of Polyoxometalates (POMs) as a specific inhibitor of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) can effectively control sulfide and methane production in sewers.

Ultrasonic radiation enhances percarbonate oxidation for improving anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge

Yufen Wang et al.

Summary: This study explored a novel ultrasonic-enhanced percarbonate oxidation technique to improve anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge. The results showed that ultrasonic waves enhanced the oxidation reaction and reduced the required oxidant dosage, leading to a 46.8% increase in cumulative methane yield after optimal pretreatment. Kinetic analysis demonstrated that ultrasonic-enhanced percarbonate oxidation improved both the hydrolysis rate and biochemical methane potential. Mechanistic exploration revealed that ultrasonic-enhanced percarbonate oxidation promoted the solubilization, hydrolysis, and acidification of substrates during pretreatment, providing abundant reaction intermediates for subsequent methanation. Additionally, it improved the biodegradability of soluble substrates and altered the physical characteristics of the sludge, creating favorable conditions for anaerobic biotransformation.

Unveiling the roles of biofilm in reducing N2O emission in a nitrifying integrated fixed-film activated sludge (IFAS) system

Yanying He et al.

Summary: This study aims to uncover the roles of biofilm in reducing N2O emission in a nitrifying IFAS system, using advanced technologies such as N2O microsensor and site-preference analysis. The biofilm was found to reduce N2O emission by inhibiting nitrite accumulation and promoting endogenous denitrification. It also reduced N2O emission by decreasing the dissolved oxygen level. The presence of biofilm in the IFAS system resulted in significantly lower N2O emissions compared to the solo sludge flocs, and this can be attributed to the high microbial diversity and unique enzyme composition of the biofilm.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of peracetic acid (PAA) on hydrogen production in waste activated sludge (WAS) dark fermentation and explored the underlying mechanism. The results showed that increasing PAA dosage could significantly enhance hydrogen yield within a certain range, while excessive dosage led to a slight decrease in hydrogen production. PAA promoted sludge disintegration and inhibited the activity of all microorganisms involved in dark fermentation, with a more significant effect on hydrogen consumers than producers. Additionally, PAA effectively suppressed methane production.
