    Abstract: Plant-derived coagulants have exhibited a good potential in wastewater treatment due to their “green” characteristics, high coagulating-flocculating activity, cost-effectiveness, and biodegradability. Nevertheless, research studies have focused mainly on bench-scale experiments; pilot-scale and full-scale simulations are still limited. Herein, we firstly report a pilot-scale study of real domestic textile wastewater treatment using Cassia fistula coagulant. The material characterizations using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) revealed that the natural gum extracted from C. fistula seed possessed a rough and irregular surface containing a high molecular weight galactomannan. The bench-scale investigation was initially conducted to determine the optimal pollutant concentration, initial pH, and coagulant dosage in the coagulation-flocculation process. The pilot-scale study revealed that C. fistula coagulant is an effective material for real textile wastewater treatment, showing percentage removal of 93.83% at a volume of 30 L and a coagulant dosage of 1.17 mg·L−1. Coagulation-flocculation using C. fistula seed gum could be an efficient primary wastewater treatment prior to membrane or biological methods to meet Vietnamese environmental standards. The main mechanisms of textile wastewater treatment involve adsorption/bridging interactions via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction between negatively charged carboxylate groups of the coagulant and positively charged pollutants.

    Abstract: Untreated or inadequately treated domestic wastewater has adversely affected the aquatic environment and public health in many cities in Vietnam. A conventional anaerobic–anoxic–oxic (AAO) process is recognized as an easy-to-handle approach that constrains chemical use during the procedure. Herein, we improve an AAO system by adding more oxic orders in association with a biological membrane in order to increase the hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the oxic zone in the system. The investigated system was applied to the treatment of real domestic wastewater during 168 days of operation. The performance of the system reached a stable state after 60 days of operation. The removal efficiency of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), total suspended solids (TSS), biological oxygen demand (BOD5), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) was found to be 93.6 ± 3.0%, 91.9 ± 3.5%, 88.6 ± 1.2%, 82.6 ± 1.4%, and 71.8 ± 0.7%, respectively. After the operation process, the TN, TP, and TSS contents in the wastewater effluents met the A level in accordance with the QCVN 14-MT:2015/BTNMT regulation, and the effluents of COD and BOD5 almost satisfied the requirement, with only some points being slightly higher than the limit values. The obtained data revealed that the AAO/O system was capable of treating domestic wastewater in small and medium-sized domestic wastewater treatment facilities.

    Abstract: In this study, macadamia nutshell residue, a prevalent leftover and green agricultural waste in Vietnam, was utilized to prepare a magnetic activated carbon adsorbent. The obtained material was characterized by its surface functionalities, elemental composition, crystalline structure, and magnetic properties. The characterization results revealed that the composite comprised Fe3O4 nanoparticles attached to the carbon matrix. The saturation magnetization (Ms) of the composite was found to be 38.2 emu g−1, indicating a convenient separation of the solid adsorbent from aqueous media using an external magnetic field. The feasibility of removing zinc (II) ion from an aqueous solution of the activated carbon/Fe3O4 (AC/Fe3O4) composite was examined. The adsorption kinetics were best explained by the Elovich model and the pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption capacity at equilibrium and the initial rate of Zn2+ adsorption determined by the pseudo-second-order model were 22.73 mg g−1 and 4.18 mg g−1 min−1, respectively. The implications of this study are that a low-cost, green, and magnetically separable material prepared by a large-scale available solid waste can be a promising adsorbent for the elimination of heavy metals.
