Abstract:
In this paper, the removal characteristics of five heavy metals (Mn, Fe, Zn, Cr,As) in two urban wastewater treatment plants called Aand B in Fuzhou were studied. The results showed: (1) The influents of these two wastewater treatment plants weren't seriously polluted by heavy metal heavily except for Mn and Fe, this may result from the environmental background of Fuzhou; (2) A takes A/O process as the biological unit, the removal efficiencies for these heavy metals of the whole process ranged from 7.5% for Zn to 93.1% for Fe. (3) B utilizes CASS process for secondary treatment, it yielded lower removal efficiencies than A/O process on the whole, ranging from28.5%forMn to 88.2%for Fe except Zn; (4) BothA and Bwere excellent in removing Fe while had little removal efficiency for Zn, thismay result fromthe re-dissolution of particulate Zn; (5) the removal capacities for heavy metals of these two wastewater treatment plants were calculated respectively, ranging from0.03 kg &bulld-1 to 18.10 kg &bulld-1. © 2013 Trade Science Inc. - INDIA.
