Abstract :

In China, huge amount of sulfate and ammonia-laden wastewaters discharged from pharmaceutical industry, food fermentation and paper pulp per year, which need proper treatment prior to their safe disposal. In 2005, aiming at reclamation of elemental sulfur from sulfate-laden wastewater, we proposed an innovative integrated process system that can simultaneously remove sulfate, nitrate and organic carbons.
