As an important subsystem of the urban environment, urban rivers offer
various kinds of ecological services that benefit residents of the city.However,
with the acceleration of urbanization and rapid economic development, urban
river pollution problems are becoming more and more critical. This paper
describes the situation of urban water pollution today, summarizes research
on river pollution control and remediation. Having compared and analyzed the
different techniques and explain the concepts of bioremediation technologies,
based on the progress of remediation of the river, the paper concludes
approaches to addressing the problem of river pollution remediation biologicalecology should be used as the main techniques, and physical and chemical
remediation as a complementary means.
1. Introduction
With the rapid economic development and accelerating urbanization,
pollution of rivers occurs continuously, which produces severely damaged the
river ecosystem. A large number of domestic and industrial waste water
flowing into the river, which leads to highly contaminated water into the
system. Thus, the function of the river as a source of power loss and urban
ecology and water environment deteriorates seriously. The problem of urban
river pollution and ecological damage becomes more and more
critical. According to statistics, at the beginning of the 20th century, there is
almost a complete natural river in the world [1].Therefore, it is urgent to
develop a cost effective technique to manage the water quality of the river.
2. Physical Improvements
2.1. aeration
Aeration can restore and enhance the growth and vitality of microorganisms to improve water quality. Aeration technology is a simple and
effective method that has been commonly used since the beginning of river
restoration. In practical applications, many factors must be taken into account,
such as channel conditions, characteristics of the source, the requirements of
water quality improvement, etc. and aeration fixed, aeration mobile and
aeration of water have limberly when it can be achieved to deal with sudden
pollution to improve water quality in time short. Since 1960, the platform used
cellular oxygenation and aeration station remains in the aeration of the river,
which is a common method and applied in several countries [2].
Currently, utilities river aeration technology has been relatively mature
abroad, and research and practical application showed that the artificial
aeration can improve water quality effectively. River aeration technology has
been successfully used in the treatment of Oeiras in Portugal River, River
Emsche in Germany, Thames River in England and Canal Homewood in the US
[3]. Aeration equipment utilized in the treatment of AS Homewood Canal in
1989, which increases the dissolved oxygen in the bottom water and where
the river becomes enriched biomass. Aerated stream is used to improve river
water quality effectively in Germany in 1994. The river aeration technology is
used to eliminate the phenomenon of black-odor water thoroughly in Busan,
South Korea.
In order to improve the environment, eight aeration equipment placed
on Qing River with respective strengths 11.025 KW during the Beijing Asian
Games as early as 1990, which makes the dissolved oxygen level increased
from 0 to 6mg / L, and BOD5 removal rate also reached 60%. This process
virtually eliminates all odors in the river. Shanghai Academy of Environmental
Sciences set up a few points in the river flow aeration to perform experiments
aerated water and bioremediation. In this study, the level of dissolved oxygen
from water bodies under anaerobic conditions initially improved significantly,
and the growth of aerobic microorganisms indigenous highly stimulated, and
the removal rate of organic pollutants in the water rose to 10.7% ~
23%. Concentration BOD5 and NH4 + -N decreased 2.492mg / L, 1.217 mg / L
and 0.322 mg / L after aeration in the downstream Dongguan Guancheng
Canal. Chengxin Wang and his group did a pilot study on aeration in Shanghai
Suzhou River using BIO. The results showed that pure oxygen aeration can
reduce water CODcr black-odor and the removal rate can reach from 19.5% to
56% [4]
2.2. Diversion of water to remove pollutants
It is feasible to control pollution of rivers through water diversion.Clean
water can dilute the polluted river, which produces black and the water
removes body odor fast, self-purification capacity of water bodies
increases. Diversion of water to flush pollutants used in Fuzhou, Zhongshan
and other cities in China, while the calculation scale diversion is the key
technology is based on the quality of wastewater. For example, Hong Lijian
analyze the effect of pollutants on the scale diversion swill around Fuzhou
River, which is applied to the engineering design [5]. But the water diversion
project to flush pollutants was large and relatively high costs.
2.3. sediment Dredging
Different dredging methods will produce the effect of a different
environment. Generally, how extensive operation download or drag-suction
dredgers will cause resuspension of sediment [6]. Dredging is a kind of method
of water injection dredging of sediment in situ, which could improve efficiency
and reduce costs, and the approach adopted in the harbor channel dredging
sediment England and Xuan Hu in China [7]. Type the most advanced of
dredging the environment is a cutter suction dredger time, and boat dredging
is equipped with automatic control and monitoring system for imp accuracy
dredging rove very, used in the Wu Li Lake, Chao Lake in Anhui and Dianchi
Lake in Kunming in China to dredge sediment [8].
3. Chemical Remediation
3.1. Flocculation and sedimentation
biological ozone to filter and purify the polluted river Kumbo, and ammonia
removal rate reached 90%, a significant TOC removal rate [16].
Bio-ceramic is used as a carrier to treat polluted rivers in Shenzhen,
and an average removal rate of N NO2, NO3 N, COD, turbidity, color, algae
Mn and 90.8%, 84%, 21.4%, 62%, 47%, 89% and 68% respectively
[17]. Based on the use of rubber waste processing technology packaging
inner loop fluidized bed bio-films, an average removal rate of COD and
ammonia were 88.16% and 91.8%, and the highest removal rate
respectively is 94.64% and 94.08 %. Wang Shu mei mounted aerator, biofilms and adding special bacteria in the river, and the removal rate of
CODCr, BOD5, NH4 + -N, TN, TP and SS was 67.4%, 87.7%, 34.3%, 30 ,
3%, 53.3% and 39.7%, dissolved oxygen and transparency in the river
increased from 0.9 mg / L and 12.5cm to 7.6 mg / L and 137.5cm
respectivel y [18]. Yang Tao put the biological filter media on the surface of
the river, and the average removal rate of COD, ammonia nitrogen and
total phosphorus was 40.00%, 36.43% and 43.02% respectively [19].
Lei Jin yong simulation of river polluted with sewage main, and uses
gravel and zeolite composite packaging for the formation of bio-films,
which got good results in terms of degradation of organic matter and
ammonia and nitrogen, etc. [20]. Wang Xuejiang used TX-type cylinder
suspended the carrier density is approximately equal to the water to purify
rivers Suzhou, and the method was suitable for the transformation process
aeration biological treatment of sewage in the river directly [21]. Based on
structural modifications and optimization flow reactor suspended-carrier
developed its own, Wang Rongchang applied to the in-situ remediation of
contaminated river water quality [22]. The use of biological streamer
processing technology to build waste treatment facilities scattered in the
river reach the goal to eliminate black-odor water, and bio-tape technology
has been applied in New Island Creek unsuccessful [23]. Xiao Yutang and
his group used in the biological contact oxidation pretreatment of micropolluted raw water from Yao Jiang, and bio-water film thickness is 0.30.5mm, 0.1-0.3mm waste it, when the dissolved oxygen from the water
controlled at 7-9mg / L , bio-filler movie was filled with a layer of

[24]. Biological contact oxidation of flexible packaging and rich threedimensional micro oxygen aeration is used to improve polluted Shanghai
Chuan Yang River. It is observed that biofacies rich in bio-films, with a
small thickness, the rate of biodegradation of ammonia and high-nitrogen
pollutants, and aerobic bio-packaging film has played a major role to
remove pollutants [25].
4.3.2. microorganisms dose
This technology uses certain microorganisms and efficient to
decompose, transform, absorb pollutants in water, to purify the quality of
the river with the screening of microorganisms efficiently, construction
optimized microorganisms, extensive training and put in, etc. The
development of high bacterial compounds that effectively the a key step in
the process to determine the effect of microorganisms doses. At this time,
it is learned and applied in the purification of sewage, industrial
wastewater, and water eutrophication. FLO-1200 achieve outstanding
results in the control of pollution of the river under the river aeration
conditions [26]. Zhang Li added bio-energizer, mixing the combined water
and strengthen the ability of microbial degradation artificially for water
purification [27].
5. Development Trend
Research and application of control technologies river in foreign
countries began with Japan, the United States and some European countries in
the 50s of the 20th century. Their concept of river management is a
comprehensive control of ecological protection and environmental governance,
and combine engineering measures with the aquatic environment and social
environment. Restoration of river eco become an international hot spot after
1980. China has entered a stage of comprehensive river control and ecorestoration in the late 1990s, and has been doing a lot of repair work. But most
of them are still in the initial experiments. Proposals on the trend of river
pollution remediation eventually filed.
To achieve health and sustainable development of the ecosystem of the
