Recycling spent water treatment adsorbents for efficient electrocatalytic water oxidation reaction

Zhijie Chen et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates a strategy for converting spent adsorbents into efficient electrocatalysts by boriding process. The metal ion-laden biochar-based spent adsorbents are transformed into magnetic metal borides/biochar heterostructures. The optimized catalyst exhibits low overpotential and high current density, outperforming many catalysts synthesized from commercial materials. The high catalytic efficiency is attributed to the well-dispersed nano-sized metallic borides, active metal (oxy)hydroxides, favorable charge-transfer kinetics, as well as the heterostructure and amorphous feature.

Removal of microplastics and attached heavy metals from secondary effluent of wastewater treatment plant using interpenetrating bipolar plate electrocoagulation

Runyu Xu et al.

Summary: In this study, the mixed pollutants of microplastics and heavy metals were effectively removed from the secondary effluent of a wastewater treatment plant using an interpenetrating bipolar plate electrocoagulation (IBPE) reactor. The experimental process showed high removal efficiency for both heavy metals and microplastics. The optimization of removal efficiency was achieved with specific current density, initial pH, and reaction time. Mathematical models and pseudo-voltammetry curve analysis provided insights into the changes in removal rate over time and the complexation forms of heavy metals and surface groups of microplastics. The results suggested that IBPE could be a valuable clean technology for simultaneously removing microplastics and heavy metals from wastewater.

The entering of polyethylene terephthalate microplastics into biological wastewater treatment system affects aerobic sludge digestion differently from their direct entering into sludge treatment system

Wei Wei et al.

Summary: The study investigated the inhibition effect of PET microplastics on waste activated sludge (WAS) aerobic digestion, showing a decrease in hydrolysis but an improvement in solubilization when PET microplastics enter the biological wastewater treatment system. However, direct addition of PET microplastics to the sludge aerobic digester resulted in serious inhibition of hydrolysis, significantly suppressing WAS aerobic digestion. Further investigation revealed that PET microplastics reduced the populations of key bacteria involved in aerobic digestion via induced oxidative stress or releasing toxic chemicals.
