Chlorine dioxide (ClO 2 ) has been widely used in the process of preoxidation and disinfection as an excellent water treatment reagent. However, the inorganic by-products produced by ClO 2 , such as chlorite (ClO 2 − ) and chlorate (ClO 3 − ) are harmful to human health, and this has become a potential problem when using ClO 2 in drinking water treatment. In this study, ClO 2 alone and a ClO 2 /NaClO combination process were carried out to evaluate the algae removal efficiency of the treatment and the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs: chlorite, chlorate, trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids) for high algae-laden water with 124.16 µg L −1 chlorophyll a (Chl.a) content. The results show that disinfection with 1.5 mg L −1 ClO 2 alone results in a ClO 2 − concentration exceeding 0.7 mg L −1 . ClO 2 preoxidation/ClO 2 disinfection is applicable for the control of effluent quality, but the ClO 2 − concentration still has an excessive risk when using 0.8 mg L −1 and 0.6 mg L −1 ClO 2 for the two process, respectively. In the ClO 2 /NaClO combination process, the ClO 2 − concentration is below 0.6 mg L −1 , and trihalomethane (THM) and haloacetic acid (HAA) concentrations are lower than 60% of the maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) set by the World Health Organization (WHO). Further, the formation of ClO 2 − is more effectively controlled by NaClO preoxidation/ClO 2 disinfection than ClO 2 preoxidation/NaClO disinfection.

Cryptocaryon irritans causes one of the most serious diseases in various wild and cultured marine fish, leading to mass mortality and economic loss. In this study, hydroxyl radical (•OH) solution produced by strong ionization discharge combined with water jet cavitation effect was injected into orange-spotted grouper ( Epinephelus coioides ) aquaculture tanks for C. irritans control. The results showed that all C. irritans theronts were inactivated by •OH solution at concentrations of 0.5 mg/L within 2 min. •OH could induce alteration of shape, the absence of motility and macronucleus dispersion in theronts. A possible explanation was that the macronucleus of C. irritans might be damaged by •OH; as a result, its metabolism and life activities were disturbed. The •OH treatment increased the survival rate of E. coioides challenged with C. irritans from 64.7 ± 8.0% (mean ± SD) to 100% and reduced their infection intensity significantly. Stress response biomarkers such as malonaldehyde, glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase levels in the gills of E. coioides at different time points were analysed. The SOD activity in the •OH group first decreased and then recovered to the initial level at the end of the experiment. The other stress response biomarkers had no significant difference from that in the uninfected control group after •OH treatment. Additionally, the gill of E. coioides in the •OH group exhibited slight and reversible transformation compared with the uninfected control group. Compared with •OH treatment, chlorine dioxide and formalin treatment reduced the survival rate, induced oxidative damage and changed the histological gill structure in E. coioides . In conclusion, •OH could be applied effectively to control C. irritans infection without affecting the normal physiological condition of E. coioides .

Dry fabrication minimizes active gas loss during patch preparation. • Selective encapsulation enables differentiated CO₂/ClO₂ dual-gas release. • Centripetal moisture absorption triggers humidity-responsive gas generation. • Differential gas release extends fresh-cut cabbage shelf life to nine days. Premature CO₂/ClO₂ loss during wet-casting fabrication bottlenecks moisture-responsive packaging scale-up. To address this, this study prepared polyacrylate nanoparticles loaded with 85.8% sodium chlorite (200–400 nm) and alginate-gelatin films (tensile strength 9.7 MPa, water vapor permeability 19.9 g·mm/m 2 ·day·kPa). Dry nanoparticles, sodium bicarbonate, and citric acid were then loaded into alginate-gelatin pouches to create a sandwich patch, minimizing fabrication-stage gas loss. In humid environments, the polyacrylate core absorbed threefold more water than the film, driving unidirectional moisture influx. Selective encapsulation—sodium chlorite in polyacrylate/film bilayers versus sodium bicarbonate in film monolayer—enabled differentiated release: CO₂ peaked at 15% (v/v) within 12 h, while ClO₂ plateaued at 14.9 ppm ( w / v ) on day 3. Applied to fresh-cut purple cabbage, the differentially released gases suppressed respiration, extending shelf life from 3 to 9 days without visible wilting or decay. This dry-processing route enables multi-component gas differentiated release in smart packaging. Download: Download high-res image (88KB) Download: Download full-size image

Enoxacin (ENO) is widespread in water because it is commonly used as a human and veterinary antibiotic. However, little effort has been dedicated to revealing the transformation mechanisms of ENO destruction using ClO 2 , especially within a water distribution system (WDS). To address this knowledge gap, the kinetics, byproducts, toxicity, and formation potential of halogenated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) associated with ENO destruction using ClO 2 in a pilot-scale PE pipe was explored for the first time. Statistical analyses showed that the destruction efficiency of ENO in the pilot-scale PE pipe was lower than that in deionized water (DI water), and the reactions in DI water followed the second-order kinetic model. Furthermore, pH has a significant effect on the destruction of ENO, and the removal ratio increased at a higher pH. Additionally, increasing the flow rate elevated the ENO removal efficiency; however, the influence of flow velocity was limited to ENO destruction. The ENO removal rates within the diverse pipes exhibited the following order: stainless steel pipe < PE pipe < ductile iron pipe. Nine possible intermediates were identified, and those that were formed by piperazine group cleavage represented the major primary byproducts of the entire destruction process. Additionally, the ENO destruction in a pilot-scale PE pipe had minimal influence on halogenated DBPs and chlorite formation. Finally, the toxicity evaluation illustrated that the presence of ENO increased the potential risk of water quality safety when treated with ClO 2 .
