The present disclosure discloses a cellulose nanocrystal-supported sodium alginate adsorbent and use thereof in enriching organic phosphorus in wastewater, belonging to the technical field of environmental engineering. Cellulose nanocrystals are prepared from papermaking deinking sludge through chemical conditioning, drying, crushing, chemical oxidation and microwave assisted separation, and then supported on alginate under weakly acidic conditions to provide the cellulose nanocrystals with the ability to enrich organic phosphorus in wastewater. By using this method, the content of organic phosphorus in the wastewater can be significantly reduced, the total phosphorus in the effluent can be reduced, and the wastewater treatment effluent can satisfy the discharge standard. The enriched organic phosphorus can be recycled as a phosphorus resource through incineration. In addition, the papermaking deinking sludge is made into the product with a high added value, so the applicability of the papermaking deinking sludge is broadened. The present disclosure has high feasibility.

The one or more reactors includes a sorbent material having a faujasite (FAU) crystal framework type zeolitic molecular sieve and that may remove a first portion of the one or more contaminants from the liquid plastic-derived oil and generate a treated liquid plastic-derived oil having a second contamination level that is less than the first contamination level. The liquid plastic-derived oil is derived from a solid plastic waste (SPW), and the first portion of the one or more contaminants includes a halogen.

The invention provides novel remediants and methods for remediating all biological and synthetic fibers; and biological and synthetic membranes. The remediants comprise a chemically or biologically active or inactive material, in the form of particles which are on average less than the pore size of the selected fiber, or larger than the pore size of the selected membrane, and a polymeric elution supporter suspension which is interactive with an environmentally acceptable solvent. The elution support suspension mixture is capable of maintaining the particles in a persistent suspension which can permeate through the interwoven fiber layers and pores; or brush membrane surfaces and pores, due to it small or large size, thereby delivering the remediant to the desired fiber and membrane locations.
