The growing population, intensified anthropogenic pressures and climate variability have increased the demands on available water resources, reuse has become a high priority, particularly in areas of world suffering from stress. main objectives this review paper are to consider identify potential opportunities challenges implementation schemes worldwide by considering analyzing different fields interest reuse, current future global drivers policies, existing advances treatment technologies promising elimination environmental footprint human health risk, an analysis trends potable non-potable development quality criteria issues related transition circular economy. Moreover, major knowledge gaps critical domains discussed. For study, thorough literature was conducted, using research articles, technical reports, specific national (and EU) proposals, guidance documents, legislative initiatives actions, as well any validly disseminated findings scientists around wider scientific area (alternative) supply, management, sustainable development, protection public health. Water practices expected increase future, mainly developed countries climate-vulnerable planet. Current wastewater can provide opportunity for foul exploitation alternative increasing systems worldwide, relying pollutant/contaminant elimination, improving economic energy performances. paradigmatic technological switches based improved understanding relationships between cycle Water–Energy–Food (WEF) Nexus will perspective schemes. benefits recovery nutrients through sewage also highlighted, arising reduced costs associated with their sheer removal supplement fertilizers WEF Nexus. On other hand, nutrient may promote agricultural or landscape practices, contributing less consumption reducing GHGs emissions. Regarding management use schemes, holistic approach (integrated management) is proposed, incorporating regulatory actions awareness, interconnection among actors/stakeholders, efficient control monitoring. establishment paramount preventing undesirable impacts humans environment. study considers “one water” concept, which means equal independent origin water, instead differentiates types facilitate reuse. Finally, it highlights need understand ecosystem services (ESs) consequences achieving goals (SDGs).

A selective approach for multiple wastewater recovery is nowadays desirable and technologically feasible, to provide water at specific quality standards each reuse objective. This "fit-for-purpose" could both save would reduce production cost energy demand by eliminating unnecessary treatment long-range conveyance, as it typically aims local reuses. The appropriate choice of technologies such approaches perhaps the most critical planning design decision when evaluating systems implementation or refurbishing. article examines goals (direct potable use, indirect non-potable uses industrial uses) related requirements relevant case studies, issues that may arise during implementation. It then proposes an overview current conventional advanced their possible combination meet foreseen under a barrier (MBT) approach, which implies sequence complementary processes increasing level protection emerging pollutants according goals.

Critical Perspective on Advanced Treatment Processes for Water and Wastewater: AOPs, ARPs, and AORPs DOI Creative Commons

Emerging contaminants’ presence in water, wastewater, and aquatic environments has been widely reported. Their environmental health-related effects, the increasing tendency towards wastewater reuse require technology that could remove to a greater degree, or even mineralize, all these contaminants. Currently, most commonly used process technologies for their removal are advanced oxidation processes (AOPs); however, recent advances have highlighted other treatment (ATPs) as possible alternatives, such reduction (ARPs) oxidation-reduction (AORPs). Although they not yet diffused, may contaminants readily treatable by AOPs, offer better performance than former. This paper presents an overview of some common promising ATPs from water application, with discussion limitations merits. Issues about technologies’ costs future perspectives sector discussed.

Industrial effluents contain a wide range of organic pollutants that present harmful effects on the environment and deprived communities with no access to clean water. As this matter is resistant conventional treatments, Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) have emerged as suitable option counteract these environmental challenges. Engineered iron oxide nanoparticles been widely tested in AOPs catalysis, but their full potential magnetic induction self-heating catalysts has not studied yet real highly contaminated industrial wastewaters. In study we designed catalyst finely tuned structure small cores (10 nm) aggregates develop multicore particles (40 high moment colloidal stability. This nanocatalyst, can be separated by harvesting, able increase reaction temperatures (up 90 °C at 1 mg/mL suspension 5 min) under action alternating fields. efficient heating was degradation model compound (methyl orange) wastewaters, such leachate from solid landfill (LIX) colored wastewater textile industry (TIW). It possible rates leading reduction chemical oxygen demand 50 90%, for TIW LIX. These removal ability nanocatalyst sustained formation strong reactive species Fenton-like mechanism proved electron paramagnetic resonance. findings represent an important advance implementation scalable, non-toxic, certainly enhance AOP treatment more sustainable way.
