膜生物反应器运行过程的膜污染防治研究进展

膜生物反应器（MBR）作为一种新型的污水处理和回用技术,近年在基础研究和实际应用领域都得到了广泛关注,但是影响其长期稳定运行的膜污染问题却一直没有彻底解决,因此,主要从膜的性质、活性污泥混合液的特性和膜分离操作条件三方面,系统论述了MBR中膜污染的影响因素,总结了国内外减缓膜污染的技术措施,并展望了MBR的发展前景。     

膜生物反应器中的膜污染及其防治

膜生物反应器（Membrane Bioreactor，MBR）是极具前景的新型水处理技术之一，膜污染问题是限制其推广应用的主要障碍。综述了多篇报道并通过对膜污染的成因及机理的分析，指出膜污染防治中需要重点解决的问题，并探讨了膜污染防治技术中需要进一步研究的方向。     

一体式MFC-好氧MBR运行效果及膜污染特性

膜生物反应器（MBR）是一种高效的污水处理工艺，而微生物燃料电池（MFC）能利用N0i作为电子受体进行脱氮。为解决膜生物反应器（MBR）脱氮效率低和膜污染问题，建立了一套能够进行脱氮、有效抑制膜污染的一体式MFC-好氧MBR新工艺。以开路MFC—MBR反应器为对照，对耦合系统中污水处理效果、膜污染情况进行研究。研究表明，2套系统的COD去除率均超过88％，对NH4-N的去除均达到99％。闭路MFC—MBR系统TN去除率达到69．4％，高于开路系统的55．3％。混合液的MLVSS／MLSS稳定在88％左右，同时耦合系统能够改善污泥混合液的性质，zeta电位的绝对值和粘度较开路系统有所减少，污泥颗粒平均体积粒径（233．482μm）较开路系统（94．877μm）有明显增加，膜清洗周期延长了41．17％。     

膜生物反应器次临界通量运行的膜污染特性研究

膜生物反应器（MBR）是将膜分离与生物反应相结合的污水处理新工艺,近年来已引起广泛的关注,但不可避免的膜污染限制其更广泛的应用。临界通量在膜污染控制中是个非常重要的概念。本试验研究平板膜生物反应器在次临界通量运行下的膜污染状况,并结合膜污染模型进一步表征膜表面的污染特性。试验结果表明。该平板膜生物反应器在次临界通量运行的情况下,膜污染可分为膜污染缓慢发展阶段（第Ⅰ阶段）和膜污染迅速发展阶段（第Ⅱ阶段）,可分别用膜孔堵塞模型和泥饼阻力模型表征膜阻力与时间的变化关系。同时,对运行后的膜阻力分布进行分析,表明泥饼阻力和孔道吸附堵塞阻力是膜污染的主要组成部分,分别占到总阻力的73％和24％,而膜本身阻力仅占3％。     

基于乙酸根离子的有机化肥作为正渗透膜反应器的汲取液缓解反应器中的盐积累

为解决正渗透膜反应器中盐积累的问题,选取乙酸铵(NH_4C_2H_3O_2)、乙酸钠(NaC_2H_3O_2)和乙酸钾(KC_2H_3O_2) 3种基于乙酸根离子的有机化肥作为正渗透膜反应器的汲取液,并将其与硫酸铵((NH_4)_2SO_4)、氯化钠(NaCl)和氯化钾(KCl) 3种其对应无机离子汲取液的正渗透(FO)工艺性能和正渗透膜生物反应器(OMBR)工艺性能进行比较。通过工艺水通量和盐含量的测定,生物反应器内COD、铵态氮和硝态氮含量的测定,污染后膜表面的SEM分析,评价了基于乙酸根离子的有机化肥作为正渗透膜反应器的汲取液对反应器内盐积累和膜污染的影响。结果表明:在FO工艺中,乙酸铵、乙酸钠和乙酸钾在0.6 mol·L~(-1)浓度下的平均水通量分别为10.30、11.07和12.73 L·(m~2·h)~(-1),低于其对应的无机离子汲取液的水通量;在OMBR工艺中,乙酸铵、乙酸钠和乙酸钾有机化肥作为汲取液可以显著减缓反应器内盐度的积累。此外,当基于乙酸根离子的有机化肥作为正渗透膜反应器的汲取液时,生物反应器中微生物的生物活性更高,虽然这更容易造成膜污染,但可以有效地去除有机物和氮磷营养物质。研究可为正渗透生物反应器的实际应用提供参考。     

不同泥龄MBR中溶解性微生物代谢产物对膜污染的影响

通过4套平行运行的小试膜生物反应器(membrane bioreactor,MBR)研究了不同泥龄下溶解性微生物代谢产物(soluble microbial products,SMP)对膜污染的影响.以多糖、蛋白质表征SMP的含量,并通过三维荧光光谱(EEM)、分子量分布(MW)、红外光谱(FTIR)及扫面电镜-能谱分析(SEM-EDX)技术分析了不同泥龄下SMP的变化.结果表明,各泥龄MBR对氨氮和COD均有较好的去除效果,但SMP的含量以及膜污染程度均随着泥龄的升高而降低.泥龄越低,膜阻力越大,小分子量物质(＜1 000)积累程度越大,低泥龄MBR中蛋白质以及腐殖酸类物质含量较高;扫描电镜-能谱分析(SEM-DEX)结果表明,金属元素更容易在低泥龄MBR中的膜表面堆积.     

一体式MFC-好氧MBR运行效果及膜污染特性

膜生物反应器(MBR)是一种高效的污水处理工艺,而微生物燃料电池(MFC)能利用NO-3作为电子受体进行脱氮。为解决膜生物反应器(MBR)脱氮效率低和膜污染问题,建立了一套能够进行脱氮、有效抑制膜污染的一体式MFC-好氧MBR新工艺。以开路MFC-MBR反应器为对照,对耦合系统中污水处理效果、膜污染情况进行研究。研究表明,2套系统的COD去除率均超过88%,对NH4-N的去除均达到99%。闭路MFC-MBR系统TN去除率达到69.4%,高于开路系统的55.3%。混合液的MLVSS/MLSS稳定在88%左右,同时耦合系统能够改善污泥混合液的性质,zeta电位的绝对值和粘度较开路系统有所减少,污泥颗粒平均体积粒径(233.482μm)较开路系统(94.877μm)有明显增加,膜清洗周期延长了41.17%。     

曝气冲刷对膜生物反应器膜污染的控制机理研究进展

膜污染是膜生物反应器(MBR)进一步推广应用的瓶颈问题。曝气冲刷是一种操作简单、无二次污染的MBR膜污染控制技术,但在缓解膜污染的同时也显著增加了系统的运行能耗。优化曝气能耗需深入理解膜污染控制的流体力学机理和生物化学机理。重点综述了曝气冲刷通过剪切力去除膜表面污垢的作用机理,以及曝气冲刷影响污泥混合液的作用机理。在综述的基础上展望了未来研究的发展方向。     

耦合微滤膜的正渗透膜生物反应器的构建及其运行性能

针对目前正渗透膜生物反应器(OMBR)存在的盐度积累问题,借助微滤(MF)膜允许溶解性盐透过的特性,开发了基于MF和正渗透(FO)技术的新型膜生物反应器(MFO-MBR)。实验以MFO-MBR为依托,选取性能优良的聚酰胺(TFC)材质的FO膜,考察工艺处理模拟生活污水过程中的运行性能。结果表明,由于MF的引入,MFO-MBR的盐度被控制在1.7 m S·cm~(-1)左右。正是由于MFO-MBR中的低盐度环境,FO膜的通量得到了提升,最终稳定在6.5 LMH左右。虽然MF的出水劣于FO膜的出水,但是可以直接用作城市杂用水,而FO膜出水中TOC和NH_4~+-N的去除率分别高达96%和98%。TFC污染膜面含有总细胞、蛋白质、ɑ-D-吡喃多糖及β-D-吡喃多糖等有机和生物污染物,且以微生物和蛋白质为主。盐度积累导致的渗透压差的减小是常规OMBR通量衰减的主要原因,而膜污染尤其外部污染则是MFO-MBR通量衰减的主因。     

Chloroaromatic pollutants in mussels incubated in two finnish watercourses polluted by industry

Concentrations of different chlorinated compounds were measured in mussels incubated in two polluted watercourses, a river (the River Kymijoki) and a lake (Lake Vanaja) for four weeks in summer 1995. The sum concentrations of polychlorinated phenols (PCP) and biphenyls (PCB) were both about 1 μg/g lipid weight (lw) in Lake Vanaja mussels, while in the River Kymijoki mussels PCPs were non-detectable and PCBs were measured 120 ng/g lIw. The concentrations of toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and dibenzofuran (PCDF) congeners ranged between <17 and 370 pg/g Iw in Lake Vanaja mussels and between <38 and 11,000 pg/g lw in the River Kymijoki mussels. Polychlorinated diphenyl ethers (PCDE) were detected in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki (0.4–1.1 ng/g Iw), but not in those incubated in Lake Vanaja. Polychlorinated phenoxyanisoles (PCPA) were measured 33 ng/g lw and polychlorinated phenoxyphenols (PCPP) 300 ng/g lw in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki. PCPAs were also detected in reference samples, which were sediment and pike from the River Kymijoki and Baltic salmon, seal and white-tailed sea eagle.

Patterns of volatile metabolites and nonvolatile trichothecenes produced by isolates of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Stachybotrys,Fusarium, Trichoderma,Trichothecium</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Memnoniella</Emphasis>

We reported previously that trichodiene, a volatile trichothecene derivative, was produced by a Stachybotrys isolate, also known to produce highly cytotoxic, non-volatile, macrocyclic trichothecenes (satrotoxins). We investigated the relationship between the production of trichodiene and various non-volatile trichothecenes for several molds. Volatile metabolites were concentrated by adsorption on Tenax TA and analyzed by GC/MS, while non-volatile metabolites were separated by HPLC, derivatized and analyzed by GC/MS. Stachybotrys chartarum isolates producing macrocyclic trichothecenes secreted significantly larger amounts of trichodiene and other sesquiterpenes than isolates which only produced simple trichothecenes. The amounts of secreted trichodiene were relatively small in all cases. With the exception of Memnoniella, which excreted small amounts of sesquiterpenes, the other isolates produced varying amounts of sesquiterpenes, including trichodiene, as well as simple tricothecenes, no detectable trichodiene, but large amounts of griseofulvin derivatives. In Stachybotrys there is apparently a correlation between trichodiene and macrocyclic trichothecene production. In the remaining isolates, there was no simple relationship between trichodiene and non-volatile trichothecene synthesis. Trichodiene is produced in larger amounts by Stachybotrys isolates, which also produce satratoxins, but it will be difficult to utilize this metabolite to detect toxic isolates in buildings due to the relatively small amounts excreted.     

The chemical stability of formulations of some hydrolyzable insecticides in aqueous mixtures with hydrolysis catalysts

Abstract

The active ingredients in commercial formulations of malathion, oxamyl, carbaryl, diazinon, and chlorpyrifos diluted to “spray tank”; concentrations with buffered distilled or natural water of pH 4–9 were stable for at least 24 hr. Formulations of trichlorfon were not stable at pH 7 or above but disappearance rates were slower than for the pure chemical in homogeneous solution. Cupric ion was observed to be an effective catalyst for the hydrolysis of a variety of pure organophosphorus insecticides but did not catalyze hydrolysis of the active ingredients of the formulations examined. Increasing the dilution of the formulation increased the susceptibility of malathion, oxamyl, and carbaryl to hydrolysis.     

Organochlorine compounds in a three-step terrestrial food chain

The concentrations of 15 organochlorine chemicals (PCBs and pesticides) were studied in a Central European oak wood food chain system: Great tit (Parus major), caterpillars (Tortrix viridana, Operophtera brumata, Erannis defoliaria), and oak-leaves (Quercus robur). Juvenile tits receive organochlorines from the mother via egg transfer and, eventually to a greater extent, from the caterpillar food source during nestling period. The concentrations of PCB 153 (2,2′,4,4′,5,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl, the most abundant in this study) was found in leaf material at ca. 1 ng/g, in caterpillars 10 ng/g, and in bird eggs 170 ng/g on an average and on a dry mass basis.     

Radionuclides and trace elements in fish collected upstream and downstream of Los Alamos national laboratory and the doses to humans from the consumption of muscle and bone

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine radionuclide and trace element concentrations in bottom‐feeding fish (catfish, carp, and suckers) collected from the confluences of some of the major canyons that cross Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) lands with the Rio Grande (RG) and the potential radiological doses from the ingestion of these fish. Samples of muscle and bone (and viscera in some cases) were analyzed for ³H, ⁹⁰Sr, ¹³⁷Cs, ^totU, ²³⁸Pu, ^239,240Pu, and ²⁴¹Am and Ag, As, Ba, Be, Cr, Cd, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, and Tl. Most radionuclides, with the exception of ⁹⁰Sr, in the muscle plus bone portions of fish collected from LANL canyons/RG were not significantly (p<0.05) higher from fish collected upstream (San Ildefonso/background) of LANL. Strontium‐90 in fish muscle plus bone tissue significantly (p<0.05) increases in concentration starting from Los Alamos Canyon, the most upstream confluence (fish contained 3.4E‐02 pCi g^‐1 [126E‐02 Bq kg^‐1]), to Frijoles Canyon, the most downstream confluence (fish contained 14E‐02 pCi g^‐1 [518E‐02 Bq kg^‐1]). The differences in ⁹⁰Sr concentrations in fish collected downstream and upstream (background) of LANL, however, were very small. Based on the average concentrations (±2SD) of radionuclides in fish tissue from the four LANL confluences, the committed effective dose equivalent from the ingestion of 46 lb (21 kg) (maximum ingestion rate per person per year) of fish muscle plus bone, after the subtraction of background, was 0.1 ± 0.1 mrem y^‐1 (1.0 ± 1.0 μSv y^‐1), and was far below the International Commission on Radiological Protection (all pathway) permissible dose limit of 100 mrem y^‐1 (1000 μSv y^‐1). Of the trace elements that were found above the limits of detection (Ba, Cu, and Hg) in fish muscle collected from the confluences of canyons that cross LANL and the RG, none were in significantly higher (p<0.05) concentrations than in muscle of fish collected from background locations.     

Radionuclides in pinon pine (Pinus edulis) nuts from los alamos national laboratory lands and the dose from consumption

Abstract

One of the dominant tree species growing within and around the eastern portion of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, NM, lands is the pinon pine (Pinus edulis). Pinon pine is used for firewood, fence posts, and building materials and is a source of nuts for food—the seeds are consumed by a wide variety of animals and are also gathered by people in the area and eaten raw or roasted. This study investigated the (1) concentration of ³H, ¹³⁷Cs, ⁹⁰Sr, ^totU, ²³⁸Pu, ^{239, 240}Pu, and²⁴¹ Am in soils (0‐ to 12‐in. [31 cm] depth underneath the tree), pinon pine shoots (PPS), and pinon pine nuts (PPN) collected from LANL lands and regional background (BG) locations, (2) committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE) from the ingestion of nuts, and (3) soil to PPS to PPN concentration ratios (CRs). Most radionuclides, with the exception of ³H in soils, were not significantly higher (p < 0.10) in soils, PPS, and PPN collected from LANL as compared to BG locations, and concentrations of most radionuclides in PPN from LANL have decreased over time. The maximum net CEDE (the CEDE plus two sigma minus BG) at the most conservative ingestion rate (10 lb [4.5 kg]) was 0.0018 mrem (0.018 μSv); this is far below the International Commission on Radiological Protection (all pathway) permissible dose limit of 100 mrem (1000 μSv). Soil‐to‐nut CRs for most radionuclides were within the range of default values in the literature for common fruits and vegetables.     

Degradation and sorption of imidacloprid in dissimilar surface and subsurface soils

Degradation and sorption/desorption are important processes affecting the leaching of pesticides through soil. This research characterized the degradation and sorption of imidacloprid (1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridinyl)-methyl]-N-nitro-2-imidazolidinimine) in Drummer (silty clay loam) and Exeter (sandy loam) surface soils and their corresponding subsurface soils using sequential extraction methods over 400 days. By the end of the incubation, approximately 55% of imidacloprid applied at a rate of 1.0 mg kg^?1 degraded in the Exeter sandy loam surface and subsurface soils, compared to 40% of applied imidacloprid within 300 days in Drummer surface and subsurface soils. At the 0.1 mg kg^?1 application rate, dissipation was slower for all four soils. Water-extractable imidacloprid in Exeter surface soil decreased from 98% of applied at day 1 to > 70% of the imidacloprid remaining after 400 d, as compared to 55% in the Drummer surface soil at day 1 and 12% at day 400. These data suggest that imidacloprid was bioavailable to degrading soil microorganisms and sorption/desorption was not the limiting factor for biodegradation. In subsurface soils > 40% of ¹⁴C-benzoic acid was mineralized over 21 days, demonstrating an active microbial community. In contrast, cumulative ¹⁴CO₂ was less than 1.5% of applied ¹⁴C-imidacloprid in all soils over 400 d. Qualitative differences in the microbial communities appear to limit the degradation of imidacloprid in the subsurface soils.     

Biochemical interaction of six op delayed neurotoxicants with several neurotargets

Abstract

Five organophosphorous insecticides: Leptophos, EPN, Cyano‐fenphos, trichloronate and salithion proved to cause irreversible ataxia not only to chicken but also to mice and sheep. TOCP was included as a reference. Cyanofenphos blocked the catecholamine B‐receptor binding activity with ³H‐norepinephrine at a level similar to that of the specific inhibitor propranolol in the mouse heart preparation. In the lamb heart preparation, the B‐receptor was more sensitive to Leptophos, salithion and TOCP than to propranolol. The six compounds and their oxons were screened for their in‐vitro inhibition to monamine oxidase (MAO), acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) and neurotoxic esterase (NTE) in the brain of either mouse, lamb or chicken. It is believed that their AChE inhibition stands for their acute toxicity, while NTE inhibition is responsible for their paralytic ataxia.
