A novel activator, corn biochar, was produced to activate persulfate to dewater waste activated sludge (WAS). Results demonstrated that the biochar-activated persulfate oxidation can effectively improve the dewatering performance of WAS. After treating WAS by biochar-activated persulfate oxidation (biochar dosage: 2.1 g/L, persulfate concentration: 7.5 mM) at the original WAS pH, standardized-capillary suction time (SCST) increased to 4.21 times and moisture content (MC) decreased to 43.4%, indicating an excellent performance of WAS dewatering. The decrease of residual persulfate with the increasing biochar dosage during WAS dewatering process illustrated that the role of persulfate in improving WAS dewatering was because of the biochar activation. The behaviors of extracellular polymers (EPS) proved that the protein in tightly bound EPS (TB-EPS) linked to WAS dewatering, and its content significantly reduced to 10.5 mg/g-volatile solids (VS) after WAS treatment. Three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy for EPS once again proved that the disintegration of tryptophan protein and humic acid (hydrophobic organic substances in EPS) was responsible for the improvement of WAS dewatering. To sum up, the biochar-activated persulfate oxidation was a feasible application in improving WAS dewatering. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
