A new method using a biocathode and citrate system has been developed to efficiently regenerate dissolved Fe(II) from ferric sludge without using iron-complexing agents. This method offers a higher regeneration rate of Fe(II) and has been successfully applied in removing recalcitrant pollutants.
Fe(II) regeneration from ferric sludge via a biocathode and citrate system has recently been proposed to avoid iron-sludge accumulation and iron consumption in homogeneous Fenton treatments. However, poor regeneration rate of Fe(II) from ferric sludge at a near-neutral pH, without an iron-complexing agent, limited its wider practical application. Here, a biocathode augmented with Geobacter sulfurreducens hosted by a microbial elec-trolysis cell was developed to efficiently regenerate dissolved Fe(II) from ferric sludge at near-neutral pH levels, without using iron-complexing agents. In the Geobacter sulfurreducens-rich biocathode without complexing agents, the regeneration rate of dissolved Fe(II) increased three-fold compared with the biocathode before inoculating Geobacter sulfurreducens. The highest concentration of dissolved Fe(II) increased from 45 mg Fe/L to 199 mg Fe/L at pH 6 when 0.5 V of voltage was applied. Furthermore, 84 mg Fe/L of dissolved Fe(II) was successfully regenerated from ferric sludge during the 123 days' operation of flow-through biocathode. Finally, the regenerated Fe(II) solution without organic matters was successfully applied in a near-neutral pH Fenton treatment to remove recalcitrant pollutants. This Geobacter sulfurreducens-rich biocathode, with its low chemical consumption, high regeneration rate and feasibility for continuous flow operation, offers a more efficient method to realize iron-free in homogeneous Fenton treatments.
