Persulfate (S2O82-) and its activations were investigated, including ferrous (Fe2+), zero-valent iron (ZVI) and ultrasonic (US), on waste activated sludge (WAS) disintegration and acidification. Experimental results showed that S2O82- effectively disintegrated WAS flocs matrix and further enhanced short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) production, compared with that obtained from un-pretreated WAS. In addition, activated S2O82- presented better WAS hydrolysis and acidification performance over un-activated S2O82- test. The lysis rates of Fe2+, ZVI and US activated S2O82- groups reached to 42.6%, 36.5% and 32.9%, respectively, which were about 10.6%~20.3% higher than that obtained in the non-activated test (22.3%). The maximum SCFAs concentration in the aforementioned three activated tests were 8052, 6613, 4996mg COD/L, respectively, while that was only 3296mg COD/L in non-activated test. Furthermore, the release of organics and the distribution of generated SCFAs were also affected by S2O82- activations. From the environmental and economic perspective, the S2O82-+Fe2+ system played more significant role for enhancing the SCFAs recovery from WAS fermentation.
