The results showed that KMnO₄ pre-oxidation achieved a slightly more effective Mn removal, and was almost unaffected by the initial dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations. PMS/Fe²⁺ removed UV254 more efficiently (above 90% at a dose of 0.25 mmol/L), compared with KMnO₄ (less than 60% UV254 removal). According to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of aggregates, both KMnO₄ and Fe²⁺/PMS oxidation resulted in the formation of MnO2 precipitate. Electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR) analysis demonstrated that only the reactors dosed with PMS/Fe²⁺ were able to generate the highly reactive hydroxyl radical(·OH). The production of ·OH caused significant rupture of algal cells and thus higher algal removal compared to the treatment with KMnO₄ (whereby insignificant cell breakage was observed). The cell rupture resulted in higher amounts of organic matter released in the systems containing PMS/Fe²⁺, as demonstrated by excitation-emission matrix (EEM) and protein analysis. Despite the elevated level of organic matter, adding PMS/Fe²⁺ was found to notably mitigate membrane fouling due to the formation of large flocs (311–533 μm) as well as the elimination of major ceramic membrane foulants, i.e. humic substances.]]> Wed 22 Mar 2023 17:30:46 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55128 Thu 11 Apr 2024 11:14:20 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55130 Thu 11 Apr 2024 11:14:10 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24918 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:14:50 AEDT ]]>
