活性污泥对甲醛废水的净化性能

采用微生物法处理低浓度甲醛废水达标排放是比较经济的方法之一.在研究中采用序批式活性污泥法(SBR)工艺,考察了曝气时间、进水甲醛浓度、进水 pH 和水温对微生物净化低浓度甲醛废水的影响.结果表明,随着曝气时间的延长,活性污泥对甲醛的去除率增大.进水甲醛浓度在 40～120 mg/L 范围内,随着浓度升高甲醛污泥负荷增加,微生物对甲醛的降解速率增加,但对甲醛的去除率降低.活性污泥在 pH 为 5～7 的中性和弱酸性环境中对甲醛的降解速率较高.在15～35℃范围内,污泥对废水中甲醛的去除率随温度升高而上升,微生物对甲醛的降解速率随温度升高呈指数递增趋势.

甘蔗渣修复铬污染土壤的效果

通过室内模拟培养实验,探讨了甘蔗渣修复铬污染土壤的效果、土壤中六价铬初始浓度和甘蔗渣添加量对六价铬还原反应一级动力学的影响、微生物对甘蔗渣修复铬污染土壤效果的影响及甘蔗渣修复铬污染土壤的机理。结果表明,甘蔗渣能有效地降低污染土壤中铬的浸出毒性和去除土壤中的六价铬。当甘蔗渣的添加量为5%,六价铬浓度低于1 740 mg·kg~(-1)时,培养70 d内,土壤样品的浸出液中六价铬未检出,培养90 d内,土壤中六价铬的去除率趋近100%。土壤中六价铬的还原反应速率随六价铬初始浓度的增加而减小,随甘蔗渣添加量的增加而增大。同时,灭菌和未灭菌条件下,甘蔗渣对铬污染土壤的修复效果差异性不显著。甘蔗渣修复铬污染土壤的机理可能是甘蔗渣中的蔗糖和纤维素先降解生成葡萄糖和果糖,接着葡萄糖和果糖将土壤中的六价铬还原成三价铬。     

氧化石墨烯强化铜绿假单胞菌降解污染土壤多环芳烃的效果及其机制研究

微生物修复技术具有经济绿色、环境友好等特征,已成为多环芳烃(PAHs)污染土壤的主要修复手段之一。然而,针对经历长期老化的污染场地土壤,微生物修复效率偏低,生物强化技术亟待进一步提高。以PAHs高效降解菌铜绿假单胞菌(Pseudomonas aeruginosa,PAE)为对象,研究了新型碳质纳米材料氧化石墨烯(GO)对PAE生长和PAHs降解的影响,探讨了GO强化PAE降解土壤PAHs的效果及其机制。结果显示：(1)50～100 mg/L GO可以显著促进PAE的生长和胞外聚合物(EPS)的分泌。(2)PAE及GO(100 mg/kg)的添加显著促进了老化土壤中PAHs的降解。(3)GO添加前期,土著微生物群落丰度下降,PAE丰度显著增加;处理后期,土壤细菌群落丰度恢复至对照组水平。适宜浓度GO的添加可以影响土壤微生物的多样性和丰度,促进PAHs的降解,然而,修复后期GO的影响力下降,土壤微生物群落呈现出“扰动—恢复”模式。研究结果有助于深入理解GO对环境微生物的效应,为PAHs污染土壤的微生物修复提供新思路。     

炭基纳米铁粉对土壤中2,4-二氯苯氧乙酸去除的研究

以水稻秸秆生物炭和纳米铁粉为原材料制备炭基纳米铁粉,并利用其降解土壤中的2,4-二氯苯氧乙酸(2,4-D),考察了不同2,4-D初始浓度、pH、温度以及超声波存在条件下对2,4-D降解的影响,分析了炭基纳米铁粉对2,4-D的降解机制。结果表明:在炭基纳米铁粉添加量为0.5%(质量分数),2,4-D初始质量浓度为10 mg/L,溶液pH为4.5,温度25℃的试验条件下,16h后2,4-D降解率可以达到88.0%;随着2,4-D初始浓度的增加,2,4-D降解率显著降低,但2,4-D降解的表观速率常数变化不大;反应体系温度的升高会加快2,4-D的降解速率;试验得出2,4-D降解脱氯反应的活化能为24.50kJ/mol,说明脱氯反应是由表面化学反应所主导;较低pH和400 W超声波的存在更有利于炭基纳米铁粉对土壤中2,4-D的降解。

在温室内采用盆栽试验法,以紫花苜蓿(Medicago sativa L.)和蚯蚓(Pheretima sp.)为试验材料,以菲、芘为多环芳烃(PAHs)代表,在不同初始浓度下,测定试验70d后8种不同处理方式下土壤、蚯蚓和植物体内菲、芘浓度,研究生物因素对土壤中PAHs的降解机制。结果表明:(1)非生物土壤系统对PAHs有微弱的降解作用;(2)各生物因素在不同程度上促进了土壤中PAHs的降解;(3)植物-动物-微生物土壤系统对PAHs的降解当量最大,明显高于其他土壤系统;(4)不同因素的降解当量不同,其中植物和蚯蚓本身直接作用的降解当量甚微,植物-微生物交互作用最大,微生物次之;(5)不同因素和生物土壤系统对土壤中芘的降解当量均高于菲。因此,增加生物因素的种类和数量,特别是微生物,可促进PAHs的降解,对分子量大、结构复杂的有机物作用更显著。     

三氯乙烯在苯酚菌中的共代谢降解性能研究

通过生物降解实验考察三氯乙烯(TCE)在苯酚驯化微生物中的共代谢降解性能,并进行动力学分析。结果表明,苯酚是TCE-苯酚共代谢过程必不可少的共代谢基质;TCE的共代谢降解与苯酚和TCE初始浓度有关。TCE在降解初期会出现一个短暂的迟滞期,TCE的大量降解要在苯酚被利用后才发生;高质量浓度TCE(>9mg/L)对共代谢降解有抑制作用。苯酚/TCE(质量比)在10～15以上时,苯酚菌对TCE的去除率较大。Haldane模型能够很好地拟合苯酚和TCE的比降解速率。动力学分析表明,微生物对苯酚的亲和力要大于TCE,苯酚对TCE共降解具有竞争性抑制作用,TCE对微生物存在毒性抑制作用;结果证实了生物降解实验的结论。     

Optimization of Height of Release of Air Pollutants

A number of key projects in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) particulate R&;D program having applicability to industry are presented. For electrostatic precipitators (ESP) there is presented the result of work on large diameter discharge electrodes which provide a decrease in penetration of up to a factor of 4 when compared to conventional small diameter electrodes. Also discussed is the multistage ESP which provides a collection efficiency that would require a collecting plate area 4 or 5 times larger with conventional ESP technology. The E-SOX technology makes use of the multistage concept to free up space in the ESP for SO₂ removals of up to 90%. Electrostatically augmented fabric filtration provides a reduction in pressure drop of about 5 0% as compared to conventional fabric filtration. Wind tunnel modeling of windbreaks for material storage piles indicates a potential for providing engineering design data that would allow significant emission reduction caused by wind erosion     

Investigation of the characteristics of the reflectivity of clouds

This paper investigates some of the reflectivity characteristics that clouds (when modelled as solid bodies) must exhibit to be compatible with observations that the reflecting surface of a cloud (i) appears almost equally bright across its face, (ii) is brightest when the cloud is opposite to the Sun but decreases in brightness as the cloud moves to other positions and (iii) increases in brightness with increasing optical thickness of the cloud in the observer's line of sight. These observations, respectively, are shown to imply that the peak value of the bidirectional total reflectivity from a cloud surface (i) increases in inverse proportion to the cosine of the angle between the Sun and the normal to the cloud surface, as the incident angle increases, (ii) appears to be directed back in the direction of the incident radiation, and (iii) increases as optical thickness of the cloud in the observer's line of sight increases. The results could have application in many fields (e.g. modelling diffuse radiance distributions for cloudy skies).     

Estimation of uncertainty of sampling for analysis of pesticide residues

Abstract

A computer model was used to take random samples from primary sample populations obtained from field trials to simulate the uncertainty of sampling for residue analysis of plant commodities and soil. The results indicate about 40%, 30% and 20% relative uncertainty when random samples of size 5, 10 and 25 are taken respectively, from a single lot. Therefore the sample size should be the same for establishing and enforcing legal limits.

An application of the theory of kinematics of mixing to the study of tropospheric dispersion

The most common technique used for numerical simulations of tracer mixing is that of the numerical solution of the advection–diffusion equation with the unresolved fluxes parameterized using the similarity theory. Despite correct predictions of the overall directions of transport, models based on a numerical solution of the advection–diffusion equation lack sufficient accuracy to correctly reproduce the coupling of mixing with small scale processes which are sensitive to the microstructure of the tracer distribution. The objective of this paper is to revisit the basic formalism employed in numerical models used to investigate atmospheric tracers. The main mathematical method proposed here is the theory of kinematics of mixing which could be applied effectively for simulations of atmospheric transport processes. At the beginning of the paper, we introduce simple mathematical transformations in order to demonstrate how complex topological structures are created by mixing processes. These idealistic flow systems are essential to explain transport properties of much more complex three-dimensional geophysical flows. An example of the application of the kinematics of mixing to the analysis of tracer transport on a planetary scale is presented in the following sections. The complex filamentary structures simulated in the numerical experiment are evaluated using some commonly applied statistical measures in order to compare the results with the data published in the literature. The results of the experiment are also analysed with the help of simple conceptual models of fluid filaments. The microstructure of the tracer distribution introduced in the paper is essential to increase our understanding of atmospheric transport and to develop more realistic parameterizations of small-scale mixing. The presented results could also be used to improve calculations of the coupling between microphysical processes and tracer mixing.     

Comparison of methods for evaluation of activity of photocatalytic films

Objective

This work aims to investigate the correlation between the photocatalytic activity determined by methylene blue bleaching (DIN 52980), stearic acid degradation, and degradation of acetone in gas phase.

Method

The photocatalytic TiO₂ coatings included in this investigation ranged from thin commercially available coatings (Activ^TM and BioClean^TM) and ready to use suspensions (Nano-X PK1245) to lab-produced PVD and sol?Cgel coatings. XRD analysis of the photocatalytic coatings showed that all the coatings consisted of nanocrystalline anatase, although the thickness and porosity varied considerably.

Results

The study showed that the reproducibility of the activity measurements was good. However, more importantly, the investigation showed that there is a good correlation between the activities determined by the different methods even though the characteristics of the photocatalytic coatings and the organic probe molecules varied considerably.

Conclusion

The overall findings of this work suggest that there is a good correlation between the investigated methods. These results are promising for the future work concerning standardization of methods for determination of the activity of photocatalytic films.     

Impact of overexploitation of shellfish: northeastern coast of India

India has a very extensive coastline of about 7515 km, rich in diverse living resources. These resources continue to deteriorate with rampant harvesting or are altered for other uses such as aquaculture and fisheries. The present paper deals with degrading coastal habitats in northeastern India, and projects the intensity of the stress arising from the collection of tiger prawn seeds (Penaeus monodon) for aquacultural farms and molluskan shells for poultry feed and edible lime. Indiscriminate exploitation of these resources leads to a heavy reduction of the species concerned and other associated marine communities. The magnitude of such destruction has been quantified. The impacts of biodiversity loss and their after-effects on the ecobalance of this coastal system have become a matter of great concern to ecologists to maintain security and sustainability. The authors propose a public awareness program on themes relating to the importance of biodiversity for human livelihoods.
