Abstract
The effluent quality of printing and dyeing wastewater after secondary treatment does not meet industry discharge standards, which poses serious environmental risks. In this work, micro-nano bubbles and a heat-activated persulfate advanced oxidation process were innovatively combined to thoroughly treat industrial printing and dyeing wastewater. Under the optimal reaction conditions (a reaction time of 60 min, persulfate concentration of 20 mM, and temperature of 40 °C), the effluent quality met the discharge standards. Furthermore, the degradation and transformation mechanisms of dissolved organic matter during the wastewater treatment process were investigated by three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and Fourier ion transform spin resonance mass spectrometry. The results showed that organic compounds in the wastewater were clearly degraded by the treatment process, and this was accompanied by a significant increase in molecular diversity. In summary, this work provides insight into the practical application of micro-nano bubbles in the advanced oxidation treatment of industrial wastewater as well as the degradation mechanism responsible for removing pollutants from this wastewater.
