In dealing with chlorinated organic compounds in waste gases, traditional treatment techniques show some severe shortcomings. Thermal oxidation may lead to the formation of dioxins, active carbon adsorption does not degrade the pollutants and biotechnological treatment is difficult since microorganisms do not always possess efficient degradation pathways for these compounds. These drawbacks explain the growing interest of the waste gas treatment sector for Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) which were initially developed as water treatment techniques. AOPs generate highly reactive hydroxyl radicals that efficiently oxidise organic pollutants. In the peroxone process, this is done by a combination of ozone and hydrogen peroxide. In this work, the peroxone process is applied in an oxidative scrubber for the removal of trichloroethylene (TCE). Rapid oxidation of absorbed TCE in the liquid phase enhances TCE absorption. Practically, a gas stream contaminated with TCE is mixed with an ozone loaded gas stream. The mixture is led through a bubble column that is fed with a buffered hydrogen peroxide solution. The effect of different process parameters (flow rates, buffer concentration, pH, hydrogen peroxide/ozone dosage ratio, TCE dosage) on TCE removal was investigated. Depending on the operating conditions, removal efficiencies up to 98% could be attained.

The accelerated process of urbanization and industrialization leads to the increase of sewage sludge production. The reuse of excess sludge which meets the idea of sustainable development is aimed to develop it into resources. Preparation of sludge-based adsorbents with various functions provides a new way for sludge utilization as a resource in China. The preparation method of sludge-based adsorbents and its application in wastewater and waste gas treatment are introduced. Suggestions about the research direction of sludge-based adsorbents in the future are point out.

China’s industrial sector, which has a significant position in the world, is the main sector of China’s energy consumption and waste gas emission. China’s government has promulgated a Guiding Opinion, setting key regions to establish an emission reduction target of air pollutants during the 12th five year plan (2011–2015). Thus, there is a different regional treatment of industrial waste gas in China. This study considers the waste gas treatment expenditure as a new input and employs the non-radial directional distance function in the framework of the meta-frontier model to investigate the energy and emission reduction performance of China’s industrial sectors. The study is aimed at finding a significant and expanded technical gap between key and non-key regions in the energy and emission reduction efficiencies. The empirical result presents an effective method to improve the performance by increasing the emission treatment expenditure to reduce emissions.
