Separation and Recycling of Concentrated Heavy Metal Wastewater by Tube Membrane Distillation Integrated with Crystallization.

ABSTRACT: Tube membrane distillation (MD) integrated with a crystallization method is used in this study for the concurrent productions of pure water and salt crystals from concentrated single and mixed system solutions. The effects of concentrated Zn2+ and Ni2+ on performance in terms of membrane flux, permeate conductivity, crystal recovery rates, and crystal grades are investigated. Preferred crystallization and co-crystallization determinations were performed for mixed solutions. The results revealed that membrane fluxes remained at 2.61 kg·m-2·h-1 and showed a sharp decline until the saturation increased to 1.38. Water yield conductivity was below 10 μs·cm-1. High concentrated zinc and nickel did not have a particular effect on the rejection of the membrane process. For the mixed solutions, membrane flux showed a sharp decrease due to the high saturation, while the conductivity of permeate remained below 10 μs·cm-1 during the whole process. Co-crystallization has been proven to be a better method due to the existence of the SO42- common-ion effect. Membrane fouling studies have suggested that the membrane has excellent resistance to fouling from highly concentrated solutions. The MD integrated with crystallization proves to be a promising technology for treating highly concentrated heavy metal solutions.

Crystallization and precipitation of phosphate from swine wastewater by magnesium metal corrosion.

Project description:This paper presents a unique approach for magnesium dosage in struvite precipitation by Mg metal corrosion. The experimental results showed that using an air bubbling column filled with Mg metal and graphite pellets for the magnesium dosage was the optimal operation mode, which could significantly accelerate the corrosion of the Mg metal pellets due to the presence of graphite granules. The reaction mechanism experiments revealed that the solution pH could be used as the indicator for struvite crystallization by the process. Increases in the Mg metal dosage, mass ratio of graphite and magnesium metal (G:M) and airflow rate could rapidly increase the solution pH. When all three conditions were at 10 g L(-1), 1:1 and 1 L min(-1), respectively, the phosphate recovery efficiency reached 97.5%. To achieve a high level of automation for the phosphate recovery process, a continuous-flow reactor immersed with the graphite-magnesium air bubbling column was designed to harvest the phosphate from actual swine wastewater. Under conditions of intermittently supplementing small amounts of Mg metal pellets, approximately 95% of the phosphate could be stably recovered as struvite of 95.8% (±0.5) purity. An economic analysis indicated that the process proposed was technically simple and economically feasible.

Hydrate-based heavy metal separation from aqueous solution.

Project description:A novel hydrate-based method is proposed for separating heavy metal ions from aqueous solution. We report the first batch of experiments and removal characteristics in this paper, the effectiveness and feasibility of which are verified by Raman spectroscopy analysis and cross-experiment. 88.01-90.82% of removal efficiencies for Cr(3+), Cu(2+), Ni(2+), and Zn(2+) were obtained. Further study showed that higher R141b-effluent volume ratio contributed to higher enrichment factor and yield of dissociated water, while lower R141b-effluent volume ratio resulted in higher removal efficiency. This study provides insights into low-energy, intensive treatment of wastewater.

LATS regulates heavy metal response

Project description:Heavy metals are essential integral parts of cells and environmental toxicants, whose deregulation is associated with severe cellular dysfunction and various diseases. The Hippo pathway plays a critical role in organ size control and cancer development. In this study, we use RNA-Seq to investigate the role of the Hippo pathway in regulating heavy metal response gene transcription. Specifically, the difference of transcriptional profiles between the wild-type and the Hippo pathway kinases LATS1/2-deficient HEK293A cells was examined under control- and heavy metals zinc and cadimuim treated-conditions.

Data on propylene/propane separation by the externally heat-integrated distillation column (EHIDiC) using data-driven analysis.

Project description:Nine hundred data were collected from rigorously simulated EHIDiC for propylene/propane separation using the Aspen Plus-Matlab communication platform. Statistical analysis was performed to give a further understanding of EHIDiC, a highly coupled system. The input variables, integrated stages, and the corresponding heat of two couples of external exchangers were generated stochastically in a wide range to cover the completely reasonable operation window. The results of blocks and streams in the flowsheet were calculated as the output data, including the flow rate, the temperature, and the pressure, as well as Total Annualized Cost (TAC). The data can be reused to design and optimize both the steady and dynamic schemes of EHIDiC, especially with machine learning methods. This manuscript gave a full description of collecting and analyzing of the data used in the research article "Data-driven analysis and optimization of externally heat-integrated distillation columns (EHIDiC)" [1].

Polymer Ligands Derived from Jute Fiber for Heavy Metal Removal from Electroplating Wastewater.

Project description:Industrial operations, domestic and agricultural activities worldwide have had major problems with various contaminants caused by environmental pollution. Heavy metal pollution in wastewater also a prominent issue; therefore, a well built and economical treatment technology is demanded for pollution-free wastewater. The present work emphasized pure cellulose extracted from jute fiber and further modification was performed by a free radical grafting reaction, which resulted in poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA)-grafted cellulose and poly(acrylonitrile)-grafted cellulose. Subsequently, poly(hydroxamic acid) and poly(amidoxime) ligands were prepared from the PMA-grafted cellulose and PAN-grafted cellulose, respectively. An adsorption study was performed using the desired ligands with heavy metals such as copper, cobalt, chromium and nickel ions. The binding capacity (qe) with copper ions for poly(hydroxamic acid) is 352 mg g-1 whereas qe for poly(amidoxime) ligand it was exhibited as 310 mg g-1. Other metal ions (chromium, cobalt and nickel) show significance binding properties at pH 6. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm study was also performed. The Freundlich isotherm model showed good correlation coefficients for all metal ions, indicating that multiple-layers adsorption was occurred by the polymer ligands. The reusability was evaluated and the adsorbents can be reused for 7 cycles without significant loss of removal performance. Both ligands showed outstanding metals removal capacity from the industrial wastewater as such 98% of copper can be removed from electroplating wastewater and other metals (cobalt, chromium, nickel and lead) can also be removed up to 90%.

Zeolite Cotton in Tube: A Simple Robust Household Water Treatment Filter for Heavy Metal Removal.

Project description:It is challenging to develop a low-cost household water treatment (HWT) that simultaneously deliver an effective and robust way for safe and reliable water supply. Here, we report a simple flow-through filter made by zeolite-cotton packing in a tube (ZCT) as low-cost HWT device to remove heavy metal ions from contaminated water. The zeolite-cotton is fabricated by an on-site template-free growth route that tightly binds mesoporous single-crystal chabazite zeolite onto the surface of cotton fibers. As a result, the ZCT set-up with optimized diameter achieves both high adsorption efficiency, proper flow rate, reliable supply and strong stability at the same time. After flowed through the set up packed with 10?g of zeolite-cotton, 65?mL 1000 ppm Cu2+ solution was purified down to its safety limit (<1 ppm). Notably, their efficiency remains unaltered when filtering several ions simultaneously. In a simulated purification process, 8?L of water contaminated by Cu2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ could be transformed into drinking water and it enables the removal of heavy metals to concentrations of below 5 ppb (?g L-1). We also show that the ZCT can be used for disinfection by introducing Ag-exchanged zeolite-cotton without contaminating the water with Ag ions (<0.05 ppm).

Crystallization-induced dual emission from metal- and heavy atom-free aromatic acids and esters.

Project description:Pure organic materials exhibiting room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) have significant fundamental importance and promising optoelectronic and biological applications. Exploration of metal- and heavy atom-free pure organic phosphors, however, remains challenging because achieving emissive triplet relaxation that outcompetes the vibrational loss is difficult without metal or heavy atoms. In this contribution, in contrast to aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) normally observed in conventional chromophores, a unique phenomenon of crystallization-induced dual emission (CIDE), namely, simultaneously boosted fluorescence and phosphorescence upon crystallization, is observed in a group of pure organic aromatic acids and esters at ambient conditions. Moreover, two triplet-involved relaxations of delayed fluorescence (DF) and phosphorescence are activated. Such efficient intrinsic emission from both singlet and triplet states in a single compound without employing metal or heavy atoms is suitable for a variety of fundamental research and applications.

Heavy metal-inducible gene expression in Hyphomonas neptunium

Project description:Hyphomonas neptunium proliferates by a unique budding mechanism in which daughter cells emerge from the end of a stalk‐like extension emanating from the mother cell body. Studies of this species have so far been hampered by the lack of a genetic system and of molecular tools allowing the regulated expression of target genes. Based on microarray analyses, this work identifies two H. neptunium promoters that are specifically activated by copper and zinc, respectively. Functional analyses show that they have low basal activity and a high dynamic range, thus meeting the requirements for use as a multi‐purpose expression system.
