Comparative study on the pretreatment of algae-laden water by UV/persulfate, UV/chlorine, and UV/H2O2: Variation of characteristics and alleviation of ultrafiltration membrane fouling

TL;DR: UV/PS and UV/H2O2 pretreatments were effective in the degradation of fluorescent compounds, thus reducing the deposition of organic matter on the membrane surface, and aggravated irreversible fouling after UV/chlorine pretreatment was probably ascribed to the increased accumulation of hydrophobic fractions in the membrane pores.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of pre-oxidation with potassium permanganate on cyanobacterial organic matter removal by coagulation.

TL;DR: The study showed that carefully optimized dosing of permanganate improves cyanobacterial peptide/protein removal, with the benefit of microcystin elimination, as well as preventing the formation of Fe-peptide/ protein complexes that inhibit coagulation at pH about 6.2 without pre-oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of Fe(II)/peroxymonosulfate for improving ultrafiltration membrane performance in surface water treatment: Comparison with coagulation and ozonation.

TL;DR: The results showed that the Fe(II)/PMS-UF system exhibited the best performance for dissolved organic carbon removal, likely due to the dual functions of coagulation and oxidation in the single process.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV/persulfate preoxidation to improve coagulation efficiency of Microcystis aeruginosa.

TL;DR: It is suggested that UV/PS might be a potential pretreatment process to assist coagulation on the removal of algae and optimal PS dose and UV dose were proposed to exist in this study.

Occurrence, genotoxicity, and carcinogenicity of regulated and emerging disinfection by-products in drinking water: a review and roadmap for research.

TL;DR: The brominated DBPs were the most genotoxic of all but have not been tested for carcinogenicity and highlighted the emerging importance of dermal/inhalation exposure to the THMs, or possibly other DBPs, and the role of genotype for risk for drinking-water-associated bladder cancer.

Ozonation of drinking water: part I. Oxidation kinetics and product formation.

TL;DR: The second-order rate constants for oxidation by ozone vary over 10 orders of magnitude, between o 0.1 M 1 s 1 s -1 and about 7 − 10 9 M 1 S -1 s - 1 s − 1 as discussed by the authors.

Reactions of chlorine with inorganic and organic compounds during water treatment—Kinetics and mechanisms: A critical review

TL;DR: Comparison of chlorine to ozone reactivity towards aromatic compounds (electrophilic attack) shows a good correlation, with chlorine rate constants being about four orders of magnitude smaller than those for ozone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ozonation of drinking water: part II. Disinfection and by-product formation in presence of bromide, iodide or chlorine.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that ozone is an excellent disinfectant and can even be used to inactivate microorganisms such as protozoa which are very resistant to conventional disinfectants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The toxins of cyanobacteria.

TL;DR: On May 2, 1878, George Francis of Adelaide, Australia, published the first scholarly description of the potentially lethal e-ects produced by cyanobacteria, sometimes called blue-green algae or, more colloquially, pond scum.
