生物阴极微生物燃料电池中同步产电反硝化菌的分离鉴定与性能

利用反硝化筛选培养基从稳定运行的MFC-AA/O反应器阴极板上分离纯化反硝化细菌,经16S rRNA鉴定后,接种于双室MFC的阴极,测试其产电能力以筛选同步产电反硝化细菌,之后对MFC的运行温度和pH进行优化,最后通过扫描循环伏安曲线分析其产电机理。结果表明:分离获得的一株反硝化菌经鉴定为铜绿假单胞杆菌(Pseudomonas aeruginosa),该菌可实现同步产电脱氮,最高输出电压可达168 mV左右,其脱氮反应的最优pH为7.5,最适温度为30℃;在生物阴极起催化产电反硝化作用的可能是Pseudomonas aeruginosa的分泌物,其作为中介体,可从电极获得电子,完成硝酸盐的还原。上述结果说明,Pseudomonas aeruginosa作为接种MFC生物阴极的纯菌,可以实现同步产电反硝化,为反硝化生物阴极MFC的实际应用奠定基础。     

电极面积对无质子交换膜微生物燃料电池协同去污能力的影响

以间距是180μm的不锈钢网为电极,构建了单室型无质子交换膜微生物燃料电池(MFC)污水处理系统。分别驯化、培养厌氧消化菌和反硝化菌,厌氧消化菌在阳极附着成膜组成生物阳极氧化去除有机污染物,反硝化菌在阴极附着成膜组成生物阴极反硝化去除含氮污染物,研究了电极面积对污染物协同去除能力的影响。当电极面积为45 mm×100mm和45 mm×50 mm时,两系统的开路电压最大值分别为(182.8±6.2)mV和(161.8±5.4)mV,COD、NH4+-N和NO3--N最大去除率分别为96.5%、99.7%、99.7%和85.4%、92.2%、97.9%;出水中NO2--N的含量分别低于(0.072±0.006)mg/L和(0.084±0.008)mg/L。这表明电极面积大的系统具有较好的有机污染物和含氮污染物协同去除能力。     

晚期垃圾渗滤液的部分亚硝化

利用实验室小试SBR在(33±1)℃的条件下,通过动态调控溶氧浓度(DO)(2～7 mg/L)和水力停留时间(2～5 d),经过130 d的运行成功启动了晚期垃圾渗滤液(NH4+-N含量1 227～2 133 mg/L)的部分亚硝化,使出水NO2--N∶NH4+-N稳定维持在1∶1左右,为后续的厌氧氨氧化工艺创造了进水条件。利用实时荧光定量PCR研究启动过程中的特异微生物氨氧化细菌的含量变化表明,氨氧化细菌的含量与NO2--N的生成速率和出水NO2--N稳定性有着显著相关性。     

厌氧氨氧化耦合部分反硝化处理低浓度氨氮废水

通过接种厌氧氨氧化菌(Candidatus Brocadia)与部分反硝化菌(Thauera)形成厌氧氨氧化与部分反硝化耦合处理模拟城镇污水中的氨氮(NH_4~+-N)与硝氮(NO3--N),考察不同NO3--N/NH_4~+-N比对耦合系统脱氮性能的影响及最佳NO3--N/NH_4~+-N比下耦合系统的稳定性和脱氮的途径。结果表明:在COD/NO3--N为2.5、NH_4~+-N浓度为20~40 mg·L~(-1)的条件下,NO3--N/NH_4~+-N比在0.8~1.6的范围内均可实现部分反硝化与厌氧氨氧化协同脱氮,且当NO3--N/NH_4~+-N比为1.2时,耦合效果最佳,对应的NH_4~+-N、NO3--N及总氮(TN)去除率分别为92.85%、99.68%和96.42%;厌氧氨氧化菌在耦合系统中的活性稳定在(4.62±0.44)mg·(g·h)-1(以VSS计),且与反硝化菌存在协同竞争关系,进水NO3--N的84.3%由厌氧氨氧化途径去除,15.7%由异养反硝化途径去除。     

城市污水条件下ASBR厌氧氨氧化的启动与脱氮性能

采用ASBR在城市污水条件下进行厌氧氨氧化的启动与脱氮性能研究。实验接种好氧硝化污泥,在温度为(35±1)℃、HRT为24 h、pH为7.3～8.5的条件下经过130 d的培养,成功启动了厌氧氨氧化反应。实验结果表明,厌氧氨氧化反应稳定运行时,TN容积负荷平均为0.179 kg/(m3.d),NH4+-N、NO2--N和TN去除率分别达到了95.30%、91.30%和76.28%。启动期和稳定运行期NH4+-N、NO2--N去除量和NO3--N生成量的比值分别达到1∶1.54∶0.25和1∶1.27∶0.27;稳定运行期进出水pH差值由启动时的0.85下降到0.24。启动期反硝化和厌氧氨氧化反应同时存在而在稳定运行期厌氧氨氧化发展成为主导反应。MLSS和MLVSS/MLSS先减少后增加,反映了启动过程中硝化细菌、反硝化细菌的衰亡和厌氧氨氧化菌逐渐富集的过程,这与反应器的宏观运行效果相一致。     

生物流化床处理垃圾渗滤液的硝化强化实验研究

采用厌氧/好氧/硝化耦合生物流化床反应器处理高浓度难降解垃圾渗滤液,通过摇瓶富集与开放体系扩大培养得到高浓度的硝化菌液,用于硝化生物流化床反应器的挂膜启动、驯化与动态运行实验。结果表明,扩培菌液中亚硝化细菌与硝化细菌的浓度分别达到9 .0×107 和3. 5×107 MPN/mL。硝化生物流化床的强化挂膜启动与驯化约历时30d,实际废水动态运行的结果显示,当进水垃圾渗滤液平均氨氮浓度为284 .4mg/L时,出水氨氮浓度为14. 3mg/L,达到了GB16889 1997一级排放标准,经过硝化生物强化的流化床反应器处理高浓度垃圾渗滤液的硝化速率高达28. 1gNH+4 N/m3·h,与未经生物强化的同类系统相比高出近1倍。     

生物沸石滤池处理富营养化水体的挂膜实验

采用上向流生物沸石滤池处理富营养化水体,考察了挂膜阶段(前30 d)滤池对浊度、COD和TP等的去除效果,重点研究了系统中各形态氮素(NH4+-N、NO2--N、NO3--N和TN)的变化情况。结果表明,对于富营养化水体,生物沸石滤池对浊度、COD和TP的去除率分别约为80%、30%和24%;出水NH4+-N始终保持在0.5 mg/L以下,去除率在90%以上;NO2--N出现峰值(4.98 mg/L,第9 d),第13 d后即一直低于进水值;实验后期出水NO3--N与进水NH4+-N变化趋势基本一致,表明硝化生物膜已成熟,原位再生可行;生物沸石床内可能存在同步硝化反硝化现象。出水NO2-N浓度低于进水可作为生物沸石挂膜成功的一个标志。

从缺氧生物滤池筛选纯化得到一株具有高效反硝化能力的异养菌DN-LWX19,通过形态观察、生理生化特性及16S rDNA同源性分析,确定该菌株为施氏假单胞菌(Pseudomonas stutzeri).脱氮性能研究结果表明,菌株DN-LWX19在NO3--N初始浓度为120.43 mg/L的试管培养基中,60 h对NO3--N去除率达90％,NO2--N积累浓度仅0.05 mg/L.以添加适量乙酸钠的实际污水处理二级出水为液体培养基,研究DN-LWX19在初始NO3--N浓度约为30.00 mg/L时的脱氮效果,当碳氮比(COD/NO3--N)为5∶1时,菌株DN-LWX19在32 h对NO3--N去除率为100％,但是有NO2--N的积累(7.00 mg/L),且至72 h无明显变化;当碳氮比为9∶1时,菌株DN-LWX19在32h对NO3--N的去除率为100％,且无NO2-N的积累.     

微囊藻毒素-RR对反硝化细菌生长及生理特性的影响

用0.01、5.00 mg/L微囊藻毒素-RR(MC-RR)处理反硝化细菌,研究了MC-RR对反硝化细菌的生长、培养液中NO3--N和NO2--N含量以及细胞内硝酸还原酶活性的影响.结果表明,高浓度MC-RR能显著抑制反硝化细菌的生长,延缓其细胞增殖,抑制培养液中硝酸盐含量的降低和亚硝酸盐含量的升高以及细胞内硝酸还原酶的活性,因而可能抑制或减缓生态系统中氮循环的进程.这表明,微囊藻毒素在一定程度上可能调节水体细菌群落.     

城市垃圾厌氧干发酵非甲烷菌群分布变化研究

为研究非甲烷菌的菌群分布随时间、空间变化对厌氧干发酵的影响,以城市垃圾为原料进行分析,同时测定pH值。结果表明,启动阶段好氧及兼性厌氧细菌属优势菌,其中产酸菌增殖速率高于氨化细菌,7 d达最大值2.95×109MPN/mL,是启动阶段降解有机质的主要菌群,而氨化菌在15 d达最大值1.93×108MPN/mL。随后厌氧细菌快速增殖并保持稳定,且仍是产酸菌占优势,15 d达最大值1.55×1010MPN/mL。厌氧纤维素降解菌增殖较慢,发酵30 d不足105MPN/mL,说明原料中纤维素降解在厌氧发酵后期。空间方面,好氧及兼性厌氧产酸菌在顶部中心最活跃,最大值是底部中心的1.4倍;厌氧产酸菌集中在底部,最大值是顶部的1.2倍。好氧氨化菌在中部中心增殖最多,厌氧氨化菌在中部边缘达最大值1.95×108MPN/mL。纤维素降解菌在底部开始增殖。研究为提高干发酵反应效率和合理设计干发酵反应器提供有效参考数据。     

Modeling the spill in the Songhua River after the explosion in the petrochemical plant in Jilin

An explosion in a petrochemical plant in Jilin in the northeast of China on 13 November 2005 was responsible for the discharge of large quantities of benzene and nitrobenzene into Songhua River. This endangered the water supply of Harbin city and influenced the daily life for millions of people. The dispersion-advection equation was solved analytically and numerically and used to simulate the concentration of benzene and nitrobenzene in the Songhua River after the accident. Both solutions gave practically identical results. The main elimination process for both compounds was volatilization. The model results are quite close to the results obtained by measurements at monitoring stations. Arrival time of the pollutant wave, peak concentrations and end of the pollutant wave at Harbin and along the river were predicted successfully. The peak concentrations of nitrobenzene at Harbin were more than 30 times above the permissible limits for drinking water.     

焦化废水中细菌质粒的研究

细菌质粒中常带有一些可编码降解特殊有毒物质酶的基因,为了研究质粒对有毒物质CN^-的降解的意义,主要调查了焦化废水中好氧异养菌的质粒分布特点。从山西省焦化企业公司生化站、太原煤气公司焦化厂生化站中筛选出53株细菌,利用琼脂糖凝胶电泳法,采用GDS-8000型凝胶电泳分析仪进行拍照,同时测定各菌株降氰、降酚能力,CN^-采用异烟酸-毗唑啉酮法,酚采用4-氨基安替比林法测定。结果表明,质粒的存在与降氰力有一定的关系,但对降酚力的影响差异不显著。同时,通过对其中11^*号菌株进行了质粒转化和消除实验,证明质粒稳定,不可用十二烷基磺酸钠(SDS)消除掉,用E．cbli DHI作受体菌,用11^#菌株作供体菌。作转化实验,但由于种种原因,没有筛洗到转化子。

How the loss of forest fauna undermines the achievement of the SDGs

The human-driven loss of biodiversity has numerous ecological, social, and economic impacts at the local and global levels, threatening important ecological functions and jeopardizing human well-being. In this perspective, we present an overview of how tropical defaunation—defined as the disappearance of fauna as a result of anthropogenic drivers such as hunting and habitat alteration in tropical forest ecosystems—is interlinked with four selected Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We discuss tropical defaunation related to nutrition and zero hunger (SDG 2), good health and well-being (SDG 3), climate action (SDG 13), and life on land (SDG 15). We propose a range of options on how to study defaunation in future research and how to address the ongoing tropical defaunation crisis, including but not limited to recent insights from policy, conservation management, and development practice.     

底泥修复中温度对微生物活性和污染物释放的影响

通过分析底泥中微生物的酶活性以及污染物的释放规律,探讨了温度对河道底泥生物修复的影响.结果表明,底泥中微生物的脱氢酶、脲酶和磷酸酶的活性随着温度的升高而显著增大,但温度对纤维素酶的活性影响较小.4 ℃和10 ℃时底泥中污染物的释放量和微生物的酶活性均较低,水质较稳定;20～37 ℃时底泥中污染物的释放量明显增加,微生物的新陈代谢能力有较大提高,水体的自净能力较强.在各种因素的综合作用下,20～30 ℃是进行底泥生物修复的适宜环境温度.此外,当pH为9.0以及添加葡萄糖时,底泥中微生物均表现出较高的脱氢酶活性.     

Attempts to probe the ozone layer and the ultraviolet-B levels of the past

To get a proper perspective on the current status of atmospheric ozone, which protects the biosphere from ultraviolet-B (UV-B; 280-315 nm) radiation, it would be of value to know how ozone and UV-B radiation have varied in the past. The record of worldwide ozone monitoring goes back only a few decades, and the record of reliable UV-B measurements is even shorter. Here we review indirect methods to assess their status further back in time. These include variations in the Sun's emission and how these affect the atmosphere, changes in the Earth's orbit, geologic imprints of atmospheric ozone, effects of catastrophic events such as volcanic eruptions, biological proxies of UV-B radiation, the spectral signature of terrestrial ozone in old recordings of star spectra, and the modeling of UV-B irradiance from ozone data and meteorological recordings. Although reliable reconstructions do not yet extend far into the past, there is some hope for future progress.     

Effect of the pesticide lindane on the biomass of the microalgae Nannochloris oculata

This study assesses the growth of the microalgae Nannochloris oculata in the presence of lindane and the ability of N. oculata to remove lindane from media. Algal biomass increased with 0.1 and 0.5 mg L^?1 of lindane, and lindane concentrations in the media decreased. N. oculata removed 73% and 68.2% of lindane in the 0.1 and 0.5 mg L^?1 media concentrations, respectively. Algal biomass decreased to the level of the control at lindane concentrations greater than 2.5 mg L^?1, probably due to toxicity. N. oculata removed lindane from the media at concentrations lower than 1.0 mg L^?1. Thus, N. oculata may be useful for lindane bioremediation in contaminated aquatic systems.
