Use of iron-bearing waste materials in laundry wastewater treatment

Résumé

This study evaluates the efficiency of a steel waste-derived magnetite (WM) for the treatment of laundry wastewater under various irradiation conditions (ultraviolet-A and C: UVA and UVC), both in the presence and absence of H2O2. Because WM can contain magnetite and elemental iron phases, its ability to remove ciprofloxacin and phenol, here used as model pollutants, and total organic carbon (TOC) from laundry wastewater was compared with that of synthetic magnetite (SM) and zero-valent iron (ZVI). We show that the mixed ZVI/H2O2 system under UVC degraded up to 80 % of the pollutant and 70 % of the TOC. WM had, on the other hand, a lower reactivity for pollutants due to the presence of inorganic impurities, yet removed up to 60 % of TOC. In all cases considered in this work, a higher degradation rate was observed under UVC irradiation than under UVA. Moreover, iron-based materials can adsorb heavy metals co-existing in the laundry wastewater. Recyclability tests showed no significant loss in the activity of WM or SM for up to 5 cycles in laundry wastewater. This study can have strong implications for the development of new remediation technologies relying on industrial solid wastes, especially in the context of a circular economy.
