This invention relates to a process for treating acid mine drainage (AMD). The process includes the steps of adjusting the pH of the AMD to be in the range of 3 to 5; adding maghemite nanoparticles to form a slurry; and a) aerating the slurry obtained in step 3), or b) simultaneously heating and mixing the slurry obtained in step 3). Thereafter maghemite nanoparticles loaded with one or more metals and sulphate and precipitated metals is separated from the slurry.

A wetland system has a wetland structure and a wastewater treatment device. The wetland structure has several planting areas surrounded by hoardings, several planting frames arranged in the hoardings, growing substrates provided in the planting frames, and wetland plants growing on the growing substrates. The wastewater treatment device has a bar screen, a regulating tank, a hydrolysis acidification tank, a contact oxidation tank, an MBR membrane tank, and a clean water tank that are in communication with each other in sequence of waterflow and arranged underground. The bar screen is provided with several bars therein, a lift pump is connected between the regulating tank and the hydrolysis acidification tank, a drainage pump is provided between the MBR membrane tank and the clean water tan. The planting area is connected to the bar screen via pipelines, and the clean water tank is connected to the planting area via pipelines.

A treatment system and method for cephalosporin wastewater are disclosed. The treatment system includes: a flocculation and sedimentation device, an alkali reaction tank, a PAC reaction tank, a PAM reaction tank, a wastewater heat exchanger, a wastewater heater and an oxidation reactor that are connected with each other in sequence, wherein the wastewater heat exchanger is provided with a material inlet, a material outlet, a heat source inlet and a heat source outlet. An oxidized water from the oxidation reactor enters the wastewater heat exchanger from the heat source inlet, the heat source outlet is connected with a product canister, the product canister is connected with a membrane filtration device to realize concentration treatment of a landfill leachate, the material inlet is connected with the PAM reaction tank, and the material outlet is connected with the wastewater heater. An outer side of the oxidation reactor is provided with a micro-interfacial generation system for dispersing and breaking a gas into bubbles.

A combined water aeration and filtration unit (WAFU), having a tank with a vent section at a top of said WAFU and above an aeration section above a filtration section at a bottom of said WAFU. The vent section has one or more demisters and one or more vents for detraining water and providing a dry air exit from said WAFU. The air section has a water inlet ending in a spray nozzle near the top of the aeration section to turn incoming dirty water into water droplets and a forced air blower on a side or top of the aeration section for blowing air through said water droplets in rate sufficient to remove volatile organic compounds and precipitate manganese and iron. The aeration section also has one or more annular rings or partially annular baffles on an inside wall of the tank to force water from said inside wall into an interior of the tank. Thus, no water escapes aeration. A backwash collection trough and backwash water outlet are positioned above the filtration section for removing dirty backwash water from the unit. The filtration section has one or more filters therein and a drain and clean water outlet near its bottom for egress of clean water from said WAFU.

An aerator for treating wastewater is configured to produce air bubbles to mix and circulate wastewater within a treatment facility. Additionally, the aerator is configured to inject additive into the wastewater at the same time as the air bubbles are being produced, so that roiling of the air bubbles and/or circulation induced by the air bubbles rising within the water column facilitates mixing of the additive with the wastewater.

The disclosure discloses a production method for full resource recycling of sulphate-process titanium dioxide production wastewater. The method comprises the steps: adding sulphate-process titanium dioxide production wastewater neutralized with lime and treatment wastewater obtained by separating gypsum in a filter press into a recycled sodium carbonate solution to precipitate saturated calcium sulfate in the treatment wastewater, clarifying slurry to separate a calcium carbonate precipitate from a sodium sulfate solution, and performing membrane separation on the separated sodium sulfate solution in a membrane filter; and adding lime into the concentrated phase sodium sulfate solution for causticizing reaction, wherein the filtrate is used as a sodium hydroxide solution, carbonizing using a carbon dioxide-containing tail gas produced in the production process of titanium dioxide to obtain a sodium carbonate solution, and then precipitating saturated calcium sulfate in the treatment wastewater again.
