Abstract:
      In order to clarify how disinfection by-products(DBPs)were produced during disinfection, in this study, the samples were collected from the effluent of different treatment units in a typical swine wastewater treatment plant, which comprised of anaerobic digestion and an improved A2O process. The comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-quadrupole mass spectrometry(GC×GC-qMS) combined with three-dimensional fluorescence(3D-EEM)was applied to analyze the effect of organic compounds on DBPs generation. A total of 38 DBPs in 10 categories were found with a high concentration of chloro-phenols and chloro-heterocyclic DBPs observed in disinfected raw swine wastewater. Anaerobic digestion and the improved A2O process eliminated the majority of the DBP precursors. After anaerobic digestion, chloro-phenols and chloro-heterocyclic DBPs were reduced by 88.50% and 77.64%, respectively. However, an increase in the concentration of esters and hydrocarbons after anaerobic digestion, increased the production of chloro-esters and chlorohydrocarbons by 392.18% and 68.37%, respectively. Improved A2O process could remove certain precursors of chloro-esters. The increase in C/N ratio, decrease in H/C ratio, and increase in HIX of organic compounds indicated the enhancement of humification degree, stability degree, and aromaticity in the effluent of improved A2O. It would partly explain the increase in chloro-hydrocarbons DBPs after disinfection. Anaerobic digestion and improved A2O process removed relatively little of the precursors of chloro-esters and chlorohydrocarbons; thus, the swine wastewater treatment system needs to strengthen its removal capacity.
