Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, titled “Wastewater Treatment and Reuse: Process and Technology”, aims to present comprehensive insights into the evolving methodologies and advanced technologies for effective wastewater treatment and sustainable reuse. Acknowledging the significant role of water for life and development, this issue primarily focuses on fostering a deeper understanding of the potential wastewater holds, if treated and reused effectively.

Our focus encompasses both conventional and emerging technologies, spanning the range from physicochemical and biological treatment methods to innovative membrane processes, photocatalytic degradation, and advanced oxidation processes. Moreover, we will explore the latest trends in smart and green technologies, such as AI-powered treatment systems and energy-efficient, nature-based solutions.

In the context of reuse, we delve into various aspects, including but not limited to, agricultural irrigation, aquifer recharge, and industrial applications. The special issue will situate itself within the existing literature by integrating and building upon current research, thereby highlighting recent advancements, challenges, and potential solutions for the future of wastewater management.

Swine wastewater contains large amounts of organic matter, nutrients, toxic metal elements, and antibiotics. If it is directly discharged or not properly treated, it poses a significant threat to the environment and human health. Currently, the management of swine wastewater has become a focus of social attention, and it adopts a dual-track parallel model of standard discharge supplemented by resource utilization. If treated properly, it can achieve the recycling of water resources and promote the effective recovery of resources. Based on the pollution characteristics of swine wastewater, this paper analyzes its impact on the environment, society, and the economy in detail and expounds on the research progress of swine wastewater treatment technology. From the perspective of resource utilization and recycling of anaerobic digestion liquid (biogas slurry) from swine wastewater and the carrying capacity of the soil environment and cumulative ecological environmental risks, this study explores new development trends and application prospects for swine wastewater treatment technology.

Biochar is a carbon-rich material that can be composed of a variety of raw materials. From the perspective of resource reuse, it is quite feasible to use waste as a raw material for the preparation of biochar. This paper provides an overview of the types of waste that can be used to prepare biochar and their specific substances, and also summarises methods to enhance or improve the performance of biochar, including physical, chemical, biological and other methods. The feedstock for biochar includes four categories: agricultural and forestry waste, industrial by-products, municipal solid waste and other non-traditional materials. This paper also summarises and classifies the role played by biochar in environmental applications, which can be classified according to its role as an adsorbent, catalyst and soil conditioner, and other applications. In addition to being widely used as an adsorbent, catalyst and activator, biomass charcoal also has good application prospects as a soil remediation agent, amendment agent and supercapacitor, and in soil carbon sequestration. Finally, some ideas and suggestions are detailed for the present research and experiments, offering new perspectives for future development. Full article
