The present disclosure relates to the field of resource utilization-oriented treatment technologies for wastewater, and more particularly, to a resource utilization-oriented treatment method for a spent electroless nickel plating bath. The method includes oxidation de-complexation, synchronous precipitation of nickel and phosphorus, secondary precipitation of nickel, and resource utilization of sodium salt. In the present disclosure, in a reaction process, no sludge is generated to avoid secondary pollution to the environment. Further, the present disclosure has the advantages of short flow and less chemical use, greatly reducing treatment costs. In this way, this method is a low-cost and clean resource utilization-oriented treatment method capable of achieving resource utilization-oriented recovery of nickel, phosphorus, sodium, sulfate radical, or chlorine in the spent electroless nickel plating bath.

The present application provides a system and method for realizing partial anammox advanced nitrogen and phosphorus removal through mainstream and sidestream biofilm cyclic alternating for a municipal wastewater treatment plant. The system includes three main component units: a mainstream zone (a), an advanced treatment zone (b) and a side stream zone (c). Advanced nitrogen and phosphorus removal of the entire system is realized through cyclic alternating of biofilms. In the mainstream zone (a), the main function of an anaerobic/anoxic zone is to perform heterotrophic denitrification nitrogen removal, and partial denitrification/anammox autotrophic nitrogen removal, and the main function of an oxic zone is to remove organic matter, perform aerobic phosphorus uptake, and complete a nitrification reaction. In a denitrification fluidized bed (8) in the advanced treatment zone (b), advanced treatment is performed for a mixed solution of effluent and raw water in the mainstream zone to achieve heterotrophic denitrification, and partial denitrification/anammox autotrophic nitrogen removal. A high-ammonia nitrogen anammox nitrogen removal zone (7) in the sidestream zone (c) enriches anammox bacteria based on biofilms, realizing autotrophic nitrogen removal of sidestream high-ammonia nitrogen wastewater.

Methods, apparatus, and systems are provided for detecting and removing microplastics from wastewater effluent. Both, automatic/remote and manual monitoring and sampling components are included to detect the presence of microplastics. The automatic monitoring and sampling component includes a TSS sensor and associated apparatus calibrated to account for non-plastic solids present in the wastewater and, thereby, more accurately determine the presence of microplastics. Efficient separation and removal of microplastics from wastewater effluent is performed by a specialized capture net apparatus having multiple sized mesh components and optional diffuser devices which perform size exclusion filtration of microplastics from the water. In an exemplary embodiment, the methods generally include diverting treated wastewater effluent from a wastewater treatment facility's main line into a wastewater sampling mechanism via an intake pipe, and then into a solids monitoring and separation mechanism which includes the specialized capture net apparatus.
