Evaluation of the fate of wastewater effluent organic matter in receiving water: Effect of sequential photochemical and biological processes.
J. Hazard. Mater. 463:132873 (2024)
Effluent organic matter (EfOM) discharged from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) carry substantial risks to river ecosystems. The fate and role of EfOM in the receiving water is affected by its exposure to sunlight and microbial processes, but the extent of these processes remains unclear. In this study, three-phase sequence of irradiation and microbial incubation with EfOM were conducted to compare the behavior of EfOM with that of natural organic matter in receiving rivers (RNOM). The dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in EfOM was degraded by 23% after three sequential phases, while that in RNOM was degraded by 19%. In the first phase, the irradiation of EfOM stimulated microbial respiration and growth by producing easily metabolizable less aromatic lignin-type molecules, leading to a 21% increase in biodegradation. Conversely, the irradiation of RNOM removed biodegradable lignin-type molecules, causing a 50% decreased in biodegradation. The second and third irradiation phases of EfOM and RNOM produced biodegradable lignin-type molecules, making their molecular compositions increasingly similar. The acute toxicity of EfOM decreased by 55%, and differences in microbial species composition between EfOM and RNOM waters decreased by 82% after the three-phase sequence. These findings can improve understanding of the fate of EfOM discharged into receiving rivers.
