Identifying influential priority of factors governing the acute biological toxicity of two kinds of industrial wastewaters J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-12-01 Zhi-Cheng Pan, Chuan-Shu He, Yu-Mei Peng, Ya-Ping Zhong, Kai-Jun Wang, Jiane Zuo
Identifying the key parameters or components mainly contributing to the acute toxicity of wastewater would be helpful to quickly and conveniently reflect their biological toxicity. In this study, the components/parameters and biological toxicity of 64 effluent samples collected from two factories producing konjac and glass were analyzed. It was found that the two types of wastewaters were not effectively

Meta-genomic analysis of Halobacillus trueperi S61 isolated from the Qarhan Salt Lake J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-12-01 Shuo Shen, Wei Li, Jian Wang, Ruiting Xu
The Qarhan Salt Lake is the second largest salt lake in the world and contains a rich and unique range of extremophiles requiring in-depth exploration. Halophilic microorganisms are promising resources for biotechnology due to their flexibility and survivability. The present study first isolated a novel strain of Halobacillus trueperi S61 from the Qarhan Salt Lake, then whole-genome sequencing and

Effects of chlorine disinfection on RO membrane biofouling at low feed water temperature for wastewater reclamation J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-12-01 Tong Yu, Shoufang Sun, Yunlong Zhao, Lingxue Wang, Ping Li, Zhuo Chen, Xuejun Bi, Xueqing Shi
Chlorine disinfection has been reported to be ineffective in controlling RO membrane biofouling in some projects. Feed water temperature is a crucial factor in the formation of RO membrane biofouling. It has a positive impact on the wide application of the RO process to ascertain whether chlorine disinfection can alleviate the membrane biofouling at low temperatures. In this study, the effects of chlorination

Characteristics and mechanism of persulfate activated by natural siderite for water disinfection J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Guo-Qiang Li, Chaoyi Wang, Yingying Zhang, Hongyou Wan, Ming Dou, Hongbin Xu
In this study, low-cost siderite was used to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS, S2O82-)-inactivated Enterococcus faecalis to study the inactivation characteristics and mechanism of siderite/PDS. The results showed that the siderite/PDS had a better inactivation effect on Enterococcus faecalis at pH 3. The sterilization effect increases with the increase of siderite dosage, PDS concentration and temperature

Microbial and chemical risk from reclaimed water use for residential irrigation J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Jennifer Weidhaas, McKinley Olsen, Joan E. McLean, Niel Allen, Leila Ahmadi, Kwame Duodu, Ryan Dupont
Arid and semi-arid locations are increasingly utilizing nontraditional irrigation water including reclaimed wastewater. Human health risk associated with reclaimed wastewater use was determined by testing reservoir, distribution line and home spigot water (n=190) and 14 types of vegetables and fruits (n=90) harvested from 5 home gardens for 7 waterborne pathogens, 47 antibiotic resistance genes and

Effects of influent municipal wastewater microbial community and antibiotic resistance gene profiles on anaerobic membrane bioreactor effluent J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Christelle Sawaya, Charbel El Khoury, Lama Ramadan, Reem Deeb, Moustapha Harb
Municipal wastewater management is an important target area for reducing the spread of antibiotic resistance, especially given the parallel increasing need for water reuse. Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) have the potential to play a key role in safely expanding non-potable wastewater reuse practices. In the present study, the effect of commencing treatment of municipal wastewater by an AnMBR

A modified spectrophotometric method for selective determination of trace urea: application in the production process of ultrapure water J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Shilong Jiang, Jianglei Xiong, Song Cheng, Jiashun Cao, Runbo Yuan
Conventional spectrophotometric methods were unable to accurately detect urea concentrations below 100 μg/L. A modified spectrophotometric method was developed to determine the trace urea in the ultrapure water (UPW) production process of the semiconductor manufacturing industry. This method was optimized based on the dosage of chemical agents, length of the optical path, and mode of the water bath

Adopting the circular model: opportunities and challenges of transforming wastewater treatment plants into resource recovery factories in Saudi Arabia J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Muhammad Ali, Pei-Ying Hong, Himanshu Mishra, Johannes Vrouwenvelder, Pascal E. Saikaly
With the ever-growing population, water, energy, and resources need to be used carefully, reused, and renewed. There is an increasing global interest in resource recovery from ‘waste’, which is driven by sustainability and environmental concerns and motivated by the potential for economic benefits. A new era in waste (water) management is being realized where wastewater treatment is becoming part of

Safe water reuse through a quasi-natural water cycle J. Water Reuse Desalination (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2022-09-01 Xiaochang C. Wang
Safe water reuse usually means the provision of reclaimed water with its quality meeting the criteria for safeguarding human health and aquatic ecology. Regarding this, people often overstress the technological magic in terms of hazardous substances removal by engineered processes while ignoring the utilization of nature's power to provide an additional barrier for safety control. Based on an understanding
