摘要：

In this study, the fate of several micropollutants (MPs) in wastewater due to coagulation using both fresh and recovered aluminum and iron coagulants was determined. 18 MPs from different groups such as antibiotics, food additives, and surfactants were selected and spiked into the primary influent collected from a local wastewater plant. The distribution of MPs in the recovered coagulant and treated effluent after coagulation was determined for both fresh and recycled coagulants. The distribution of MPs in wastewater and the removal during coagulation were compound specific; MPs with log Kow < 2.5 were predominantly present in the effluent after coagulation, while MPs with log Kow > 2.5 were sorbed on the coagulated sludge. The distribution ratio (Kd) of all the MPs (diclofenac, clarithromycin, etc.) with log Kow > 2.5 was determined along with their extent of accumulation in sludge due to the recycling of coagulants. Compounds such as sulfamethoxazole, erythromycin and sulfathiazole, showed low removal during coagulation. The tetracycline group of compounds showed possible chelation with iron and aluminum. Only <10% of the initially spiked MPs with log Kow > 2.5 was being recycled with the recovered coagulant, thus alleviating the concern of accumulation of the MPs during recycle of the coagulants. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
