Electrochemical (EC) residual disinfection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in the presence and absence of primary sludge particulates (PSPs) was studied. The kinetics followed a first-order rate law. When PSPs were absent, the EC residual disinfection rate coefficient (k) increased linearly with EC pretreatment energy (EC, 0-0.63 kWh/m(3)). However, with 143 mg PSPs/L, k first increased linearly with EC (0-0.28 kWh/m(3)) and then decreased linearly with EC (0.28-0.42 kWh/m(3)). H2O2 was detected during EC pretreatment in PSPs-free samples and the H2O2 concentration (CH) increased with EC (0-0.83 kWh/m(3)) linearly. Chloride was detected in PSPs aqueous samples (143 mg PSPs/L) and its concentration (CC) changed during EC pretreatment: initially, a decrease of CC was observed when EC increased from 0 to 0.28 kWh/m(3), followed by an increase of CC when EC increased 0.28-0.42 kWh/m(3). In both cases, k correlated to the initial post-EC chloride concentration (CCI) in an inverse linear relationship. This two-stage change of CC and k was caused by a combination of two reactions: anodic oxidation of chloride and the reaction of chloramines with excess chlorine. This paper explains the mechanisms underlying EC residual disinfection in the presence and absence of PSPs, and proposes a feasible strategy for EC disinfection when PSPs are present, an approach that could be useful in the treatment of combined sewage overflow (CSO).
电化学(EC)在存在和不存在原生污泥颗粒(PSPs)的情况下对大肠杆菌(E. coli)的残余消毒效果进行了研究。动力学遵循一级反应定律。当不存在 PSPs 时,EC 残余消毒速率系数(k)随 EC 预处理能量(EC,0-0.63 kWh/m³)呈线性增加。然而,当存在 143mg PSPs/L 时,k 最初随 EC 呈线性增加(0-0.28 kWh/m³),然后随 EC 呈线性减少(0.28-0.42 kWh/m³)。在无 PSPs 的 EC 预处理样品中检测到了 H2O2,并且 H2O2 浓度(CH)随 EC(0-0.83 kWh/m³)呈线性增加。在含有 143mg PSPs/L 的 PSPs 水溶液样品中检测到了氯化物,并且在 EC 预处理过程中其浓度(CC)发生了变化:当 EC 从 0 增加到 0.28 kWh/m³时,CC 首先减少,然后当 EC 增加到 0.28-0.42 kWh/m³时,CC 增加。在这两种情况下,k 与 EC 处理后的初始氯浓度(CCI)呈负线性相关。CC 和 k 的这种两阶段变化是由两种反应的结合引起的:氯化物的阳极氧化和氯胺与过量氯的反应。本文解释了在存在和不存在 PSPs 的情况下 EC 残余消毒的机制,并提出了在存在 PSPs 的情况下进行 EC 消毒的可行策略,这一方法在处理合流污水溢流(CSO)时可能有用。
