Nanozyme-Based Wastewater Treatment

With the development of industry, environmental pollution is becoming a global problem, affecting our normal way of life and potentially threatening our future survival. One of the fundamental difficulties is the efficient removal of pollutants and toxic compounds that accumulate in wastewater over time. Strategies to remove contaminants from wastewater include physical methods such as filtration, centrifugation and adsorption, chemical methods such as flocculation, precipitation and REDOX, and biological methods such as enzymatic and microbiological methods. Traditional physicochemical methods are not efficient enough and often come with toxic byproducts. With the advantages of high removal efficiency, mild reaction conditions, and low equipment requirements, enzymatic methods have become an effective way to address these environmental problems.

The advantages of nanozymes in wastewater treatment include low cost, ease of preparation, low environmental impact and reusability. In addition, the physical and chemical properties of nanozymes are beneficial for wastewater treatment. Creative Enzymes, as a leading global company, is committed to helping our clients achieve effective and successful research. We have developed a variety of enzymes and schemes for treating wastewater, including dye, refractory organic, emulsion wastewater.

Nanozymes for Treatment of Dye Wastewater

• After some dyes used in the printing and dyeing industry are discharged into the water, they not only emit bad odors and affect the urban beauty, but also have carcinogenic and mutagenic effects on humans and aquatic organisms. Therefore, it is crucial to eliminate them.
• At present, pollution caused by industrial wastewater discharge accounts for the dominant position of water pollution. In particular, among the various pollutants in the textile processing industry, the demand for dye-containing colored wastewater is prominent in treatment and collection. Dye wastewater is one of the types of industrial wastewater whose various physical and chemical treatment steps are more time-consuming, costly, and inefficient.
• In this regard, Creative Enzymes explores the potential of nanozymes in dye wastewater treatment.

Nanozymes for Treatment of Refractory Organic Wastewater

• Due to the rapid development of industry and agriculture in society, many chemical substances cause serious pollution to the water environment due to the abuse of chemicals and drugs and inadequate disposal of wastewater. Some refractory organic pollutants have complex chemical compositions and are generally not degraded by conventional methods.
• Therefore, how to achieve effective degradation of refractory organic pollutants and reduce their pollution and harm has become a research hotspot in the environmental field. Creative Enzymes offers a variety of nanozymes that have demonstrated the most outstanding performance due to their low cost, stable properties and environmental friendliness.

Nanozymes for Treatment of Emulsion Wastewater

• With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the production scale of the daily chemical industry is also expanding. In the process of production and use of daily chemical products, a large number of emulsion wastewater containing surfactants (such as sodium linear alkylbenzene sulfonate), oils, pigments, antioxidants, emulsifiers and other organic matter is inevitably produced. Many of these products are discharged into wastewater after use, seriously damaging the water environment.
• Some magnetic nanozymes can not only achieve efficient demulsification, but also effectively recover demulsifier, so they have attracted more and more attention. Based on this research, Creative Enzymes offers a variety of nanozymes for emulsion wastewater treatment.
