针对日益突出的水体重金属污染问题,采用液相还原法制备海泡石负载纳米零价铁(S-nZVI),并研究其对Cu(II)、Zn(II)的去除效果.同时,利用比表面积与孔径分析(BET)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)对制备出的材料进行表征,研究pH、S-nZVI投加量、重金属离子溶液初始浓度对去除率的影响,拟合S-nZVI材料去除Cu(II)、Zn(II)的动力学模型和吸附等温模型,并对反应后的S-nZVI进行回收及再生.结果表明,液相还原法可以成功制备出S-nZVI,且颗粒分布均匀.在60 min左右,S-nZVI对Cu(II)、Zn(II)的去除达到平衡.Cu(II)、Zn(II)的去除率随着pH值的升高而升高.当Cu(II)、Zn(II)溶液初始浓度为20 mg·L~(-1)时,最佳S-nZVI投加量分别为0.030、0.050 g,此时去除率分别为98.98%、98.97%.当Cu(II)浓度为90 mg·L~(-1)时,S-nZVI材料对Cu(II)的去除量最大,为127.57 mg·g~(-1);对Zn(II)来说,当浓度为110 mg·L~(-1)时去除量最大,为109.13 mg·g~(-1).去除过程符合准二级动力学模型和Langmuir吸附等温模型.S-nZVI可通过外加磁场进行回收,5次再生处理后其对Cu(II)、Zn(II)的去除率仍维持在96.84%、80.25%.实验结果显示,S-nZVI在废水除Cu(II)、Zn(II)领域具有很好的应用前景.     

硫化纳米零价铁(S-nZVI)对水体中镉的去除研究

由于矿山开采、工业废水排放及农业施肥等人类活动,使得我国镉污染日益突出.本研究采用液相还原法制备硫化纳米零价铁(S-nZVI),研究其对Cd的去除行为.考察了不同硫化剂、合成方法、S/Fe比(物质的量比)及pH对Cd去除的影响,并采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、拉曼光谱(Raman)、X-射线衍射(XRD)等技术对反应前后的材料进行表征,结合批实验结果探讨Cd的去除机理.结果表明,采用一步法以硫化钠(Na_2S)为硫化剂合成的S-nZVI对Cd的去除效率远高于其它方法,去除容量可达385.6 mg·g~(-1).反应120 min后,S-nZVI对Cd的去除率随S/Fe比的增加而升高,S-nZVI反应体系受pH影响较小.材料表征结果显示,S-nZVI颗粒由Fe~0、Fe_3O_4、FeS组成,其中,FeS的含量随S/Fe比的升高而增加.S-nZVI对Cd的去除机理主要是Cd将FeS中的Fe置换,与S结合形成稳定的CdS.     

硫化纳米零价铁对PCB153的降解研究

硫化纳米零价铁(S-nZVI)是近年来兴起的一种纳米零价铁改性材料,已有研究发现其在重金属污染物去除方面具有较好的效果,而有关其对多氯联苯(PCBs)的反应活性目前尚未见报道.因此,本研究对比了采用前置硫化合成法制备的S-nZVI(S/Fe=0.103)、纳米零价铁(nZVI)和羧甲基纤维素稳定纳米零价铁(CMC-nZVI)3种纳米零价铁材料降解六氯联苯PCB153的反应动力学,研究了pH值、阴离子、腐殖酸(HA)等因素对该反应的影响,分析了反应前后材料表面性质的变化,探讨了脱氯路径和反应机理.结果表明,3种纳米零价铁材料对PCB153的降解反应符合准一级动力学,降解机理相似,降解效果依次为CMC-nZVInZVIS-nZVI.硫化改性降低了nZVI去除PCB153的反应活性,S-nZVI表面的硫铁化物并未直接参与PCB153降解反应,S-nZVI反应活性低的原因可能是硫铁化物的形成损耗了一部分Fe~0的还原能力.此外,与CMC-nZVI、nZVI不同,高pH更有利于S-nZVI对PCB153的降解,阴离子和HA对3种纳米零价铁活性的影响规律相似.研究结果可为S-nZVI在持久性有机污染物降解中的应用提供理论依据和技术支持.

磁性生物炭活化过氧化氢降解环丙沙星研究

该文采用共沉淀法制备磁性生物炭（BC-Fe）,并将其用于去除水体中的环丙沙星（CIP）。通过扫描电镜、氮气吸附-脱附曲线、红外光谱和拉曼光谱等对材料进行表征,同时探究材料投加量、溶液p H值和不同阴离子对芬顿体系中CIP去除的影响。结果表明,材料投加量为0.5 g/L,BC/H_2O_2和BC-Fe/H_2O_2系统的CIP去除率分别为57.08%和80.00%,投加量为1.0 g/L时,两系统中CIP去除率分别达79.72%和91.10%。BC/H_2O_2和BC-Fe/H_2O_2系统在中性、弱酸和弱碱条件下均有较好的CIP去除效率。投加CO_3^(2-)对CIP去除率影响最大,其次为PO_4(2-)对CIP去除率影响最大,其次为PO_4^(3-),Cl(3-),Cl^-和NO_3-和NO_3^-对两系统中CIP的去除影响不大。X射线光电子能谱分析表明,BC-Fe表面的电子从Fe-对两系统中CIP的去除影响不大。X射线光电子能谱分析表明,BC-Fe表面的电子从Fe⁽²⁺⁾转移到H_2O_2产生氧自由基,此外 C-OH 和 COOH 也可以通过释放质子生成 CO·和 COO·,进而活化 H_2O_2生成氧自由基。电子顺磁共振结果表明,·OH和·O_2(2+)转移到H_2O_2产生氧自由基,此外 C-OH 和 COOH 也可以通过释放质子生成 CO·和 COO·,进而活化 H_2O_2生成氧自由基。电子顺磁共振结果表明,·OH和·O_2^-是CIP降解过程的主要自由基,在降解过程中发挥了重要作用。     

催化湿式氧化法降解水中的β-萘酚

采用催化湿式氧化法降解β-萘酚,制备了一系列MnOx/nano-TiO2催化剂,对其制备条件、反应条件及催化剂的稳定性进行了研究,同时对催化剂进行了X射线衍射(XRD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)及程序升温还原(TPR)等表征.结果表明,Mn负载量过高时,高分散的MnO2和Mn2O3聚集形成相应的晶相,导致了β-萘酚COD去除率的降低;焙烧温度过高时,可能是因为形成较多活性较差的Mn2O3,MnO2和Mn2O3之间的电子传递作用被削弱,造成COD去除率的降低;催化剂使用6次后COD去除率略微降低可能是和对应的衍射峰峰强度下降有关.当Mn负载量(质量分数)为4%、焙烧温度为450℃时所制备的MnOx/nano-TiO2催化剂活性较好,其在反应温度为110℃、反应总压力为0.5 MPa的条件下催化β-萘酚降解时COD去除率可达96.4%.该催化剂重复使用6次后β-萘酚COD去除率仍可达92.4%.采用原子吸收光谱(AAS)分别测定50、80、110及150℃时反应后溶液中Mn的溶出量,均低于9.3 mg·L-1,催化剂稳定性较好.根据文献对β-萘酚的降解路径进行了推测.

Effects of two sludge application on fractionation and phytotoxicity of zinc and copper in the soil

The potential harm of heavy metals is a primary concern in application of sludge to the agricultural land. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of two sludges on fractionation of Zn and Cu in soil and their phytotoxicity to pakchoi. The loamy soil was mixed with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% (by weight) of digested sewage sludge (SS) and composted sludge (SC). The additions of both sludges caused a significant raise in all fractions, resulting in that exchangeable (EXCH) and organic bound (OM) became predominance of Zn and organic bound Cu occupied the largest portion. There was more available amount of Zn and Cu in SS treatments than SC treatments. During the pot experiment, the concentration of Zn in EXCH, carbonate (CAR) and OM and Cu in EXCH and OM fractions decreased in all treatments, so their bioavailability reduced. Germination rate and plant biomass decreased when the addition rate was high and the best yield appeared in 20% mixtures at the harvest of pakchoi. The two sludges increased tissue contents of Zn and Cu especially in the SS treatments. Zn in pakchoi was not only in relationship to ΔEXCH and ΔCAR forms but also in ΔOM forms in the sludge-soil mixtures. Tissue content of Cu in pakchoi grown on SC-soils could not be predicted by ΔEXCH. These correlation rates between Zn and Cu accumulation in pakchoi and variation of different fractions increased with time, which might indicate that sludges represented stronger impacts on the plant in long-term land application.     

Intraspecific differences in effects of co-contamination of cadmium and

A hydroponic experiment was carried out to study intraspecific differences in the effects of different concentrations of cadmium (Cd)(0-10 mg/L) and arsenate (As(V)) (0-8 mg/L) on the growth parameters and accumulation of Cd and As in six wheat varieties Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11, Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8. The endpoints of wheat seedlings, including seed germination,biomass, root length and shoot height, decreased with increasing the Cd and As concentrations. Significant differences in seed germination, biomass, root length, shoot height and the accumulation of Cd and As were observed between the treatments and among the varieties (p ＜ 0.05). The lethal dosage 50% were about 20, 80, 60, 60, 80 and 20 mg As/L for Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11,Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8, respectively, and the corresponding values for Cd were about 30, 80, 20, 40, 60 and 10 mg Cd/L, respectively. Among the six varieties, Duokang-1 was found to be the most resistant to Cd and As toxicity, and Zhongmai-8 was the most sensitive to Cd and As co-contamination. The resistance of the six varieties was found dependant on the seedling uptake of Cd and As. Duokang-1 was the most suitable for cultivation in Cd and As co-contaminated soils.     

Toxic effects of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination on nifH gene in soil

Toxic effects of two agrochemicals on nifH gene in agricultural black soil were investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） and sequencing approaches in a microcosm experiment. Changes of soil nifH gene diversity and composition were examined following the application of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination. Acetochlor reduced the nifH gene diversity （both in gene richness and diversity index values） and caused changes in the nifH gene composition. The effects of acetochlor on nifH gene were strengthened as the concentration of acetochlor increased. Cluster analysis of DGGE banding patterns showed that nifH gene composition which had been affected by low concentration of acetochlor （50 mg/kg） recovered firstly. Methamidophos reduced nifH gene richness that except at 4 weeks. The medium concentration of methamidophos （150 mg/kg） caused the most apparent changes in nifH gene diversity at the first week while the high concentration of methamidophos （250 mg/kg） produced prominent effects on nifH gene diversity in the following weeks. Cluster analysis showed that minimal changes of nifH gene composition were found at 1 week and maximal changes at 4 weeks. Toxic effects of acetochlor and methamidophos combination on nifH gene were also apparent. Different nifH genes （bands） responded differently to the impact of agrochemicals： four individual bands were eliminated by the application of the agrochemicals, five bands became predominant by the stimulation of the agrochemicals, and four bands showed strong resistance to the influence of the agrochemicals. Fifteen prominent bands were partially sequenced, yielding 15 different nifH sequences, which were used for phylogenetic reconstructions. All sequences were affiliated with the alpha- and beta-proteobacteria, showing higher similarity to eight different diazotrophic genera.     

Arsenic uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal maize （Zea mays L.） grown in an arsenic-contaminated soil with added phosphorus

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus mosseae) and phosphorus (P) addition (100 mg/kg soil) on arsenic (As) uptake by maize plants (Zea mays L.) from an As-contaminated soil were examined in a glasshouse experiment.Non-mycorrhizal and zero-P addition controls were included.Plant biomass and concentrations and uptake of As,P,and other nutrients,AM colonization,root lengths,and hyphal length densities were determined.The results indicated that addition of P significantly inhibited root colonization and development of extraradical mycelium.Root length and dry weight both increased markedly with mycorrhizal colonization under the zero-P treatments,but shoot and root biomass of AM plants was depressed by P application.AM fungal inoculation decreased shoot As concentrations when no P was added,and shoot and root As concentrations of AM plants increased 2.6 and 1.4 times with P addition,respectively.Shoot and root uptake of P,Mn,Cu,and Zn increased,but shoot Fe uptake decreased by 44.6%,with inoculation, when P was added.P addition reduced shoot P,Fe,Mn,Cu,and Zn uptake of AM plants,but increased root Fe and Mn uptake of the nonmycorrhizal ones.AM colonization therefore appeared to enhance plant tolerance to As in low P soil,and have some potential for the phytostabilization of As-contaminated soil,however,P application may introduce additional environmental risk by increasing soil As mobility.     

Degradation of metabolites accumulated of benzo[a]pyrene by coupling Penicillium Chrysogenum with KMnO4

Several main metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene （BaP） formed by Penicillium chrysogenum, Benzo[a]pyrene-1,6-quinone （BP 1,6- quinone）, trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene （BP 7,8-diol）, 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene （3-OHBP）, were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. The three metabolites were liable to be accumulated and were hardly further metabolized because of their toxicity to microorganisms. However, their further degradation was essential for the complete degradation of BaP. To enhance their degradation, two methods, degradation by coupling Penicillium chrysogenum with KMnO4 and degradation only by Penicillium chrysogenum, were compared; Meanwhile, the parameters of degradation in the superior method were optimized. The results showed that （1） the method of coupling Penicillium chrysogenum with KMnO4 was better and was the first method to be used in the degradation of BaP and its metabolites; （2） the metabolite, BP 1,6-quinone was the most liable to be accumulated in pure cultures; （3） the effect of degradation was the best when the concentration of KMnO4 in the cultures was 0.01% （w/v）, concentration of the three compounds was 5 mg/L and pH was 6.2. Based on the experimental results, a novel concept with regard to the bioremediation of BaP-contaminated environment was discussed, considering the influence on environmental toxicity of the accumulated metabolites.     

Impact of atrazine and nitrogen fertilizers on the sorption of chlorotoluron in soil and model sorbents

Sorption of chlorotoluron in ammonium sulfate, urea and atrazine multi-solutes system was investigated by batch experiments. The results showed application of nitrogen fertilizers to the soil could affect the behavior of chlorotoluron. At the same concentration of N, sorption of chlorotoluron decreased as the concentration of atrazine increased on the day 0 and 6 in soil, respectively. The sorption of chlorotoluron increased from 0 to 6 d when soils were preincubated with deionized water, ammonium sulfate and urea solution for 6 d. That indicated incubation time was one of the most important factors for the sorption of chlorotoluron in nitrogen fertilizers treatments. The individual sorption isotherms of chlorotoluron in rubbery polymer and silica were strictly linear in single solute system, but there were competition sorption between pesticides or between pesticides and nitrogen fertilizers. That indicated the sorption taken place by concurrent solid-phase dissolution mechanism and sorption on the interface of water-organic matter or water-mineral matter.     

Distribution and ecological effect of mercury in Laogang landfill, Shanghai, China

Laogang landfill near Shanghai is the largest landfill in China, and receives about 10000 t of daily garbage per day, Samples of topsoil and plants were analyzed to evaluate mercury pollution from the landfill. For topsoil samples, there were significant correlations among total mercury （HgT）, combinative mercury （Hgc） and gaseous mercury （HgG）, and content of total organic carbon （TOC）, but, no significantly relationship was found between Hg content and filling time. Hg content changes in vertical profiles with time showed that the average Hgv of profiles 1992, 1996, and 2000 was similar, but their average HgG was quite different. HgT was significantly correlated with Hgc in profile 1992 and 2000, and Hgv was significantly correlated with Hg6 in profile 1996. HgG/Hgv ratio in profile samples decreased in the order of （HgG,/HgT）1992〉（HgG/HgT）1996〉〉（HgG/HgT）2000. A simple outline of Hg release in landfill could be drawn： with increasing of filling time, degradation undergoes different biodegradation, accordingly, gaseous mercury goes through small, more, and small proportion to total mercury. Distribution of Hg in plants was inhomogeneous, following the order of leaf〉root〉stem. The highest value of leaf may be associated with higher atmospheric Hg from landfill. Ligneous plants （e.g. Phyllostachys glanca, Prunus salicina and Ligustrum lucidum） are capable of enriching more Hg than herbaceous plants.     

EDTA-enhanced phytoremediation of lead contaminated soil by Bidens maximowicziana

Phytoremediation is a potential cleanup technology for the removal of heavy metals from contaminated soils.Bidens maximowicziana is a new Pb hyperaccumulator,which not only has remarkable tolerance to Pb but also extraordinary accumulation capacity for Pb.The maximum Pb concentration was 1509.3 mg/kg in roots and 2164.7 mg/kg in overground tissues.The Pb distribution order in the B. maximowicziana was:leaf>stem>root.The effect of amendments on phytoremediation was also studied.The mobility of soil Pb and the Pb concentrations in plants were both increased by EDTA application.Compared with CK(control check),EDTA application promoted translocation of Pb to overground parts of the plant.The Pb concentrations in overground parts of plants was increased from 24.23-680.56 mg/kg to 29.07-1905.57 mg/kg.This research demonstrated that B.maximowicziana appeared to be suitable for phytoremediation of Pb contaminated soil,especially,combination with EDTA.     

Potential of plant polyphenol oxidases in the decolorization and removal of textile and non-textile dyes

In this study an effort has been made to use plant polyphenol oxidases; potato （Solanum tuberosum） and brinjal （Solanum melongena）, for the treatment of various important dyes used in textile and other industries. The ammonium sulphate fractionated enzyme preparations were used to treat a number of dyes under various experimental conditions. Majority of the treated dyes were maximally decolorized at pH 3.0. Some of the dyes were quickly decolorized whereas others were marginally decolorized. The initial first hour was sufficient for the maximum decolorization of dyes. The rate of decolorization was quite slow on long treatment of dyes. Enhancement in the dye decolorization was noticed on increasing the concentration of enzymes. The complex mixtures of dyes were treated with both preparations of polyphenol oxidases in the buffers of varying pH values. Potato polyphenol oxidase was significantly more effective in decolorizing the dyes to higher extent as compared to the enzyme obtained from brinjal polyphenol oxidase. Decolorization of dyes and their mixtures, followed by the formation of an insoluble precipitate, which could be easily removed simply by centrifugation.     

Decomposition of alachlor by ozonation and its mechanism

Decomposition and corresponding mechanism of alachlor, an endocrine disruptor in water by ozonation were investigated. Results showed that alachlor could not be completely mineralized by ozone alone. Many intermediates and final products were formed during the process, including aromatic compounds, aliphatic carboxylic acids, and inorganic ions. In evoluting these products, some of them with weak polarity were qualitatively identified by GC-MS. The information of inorganic ions suggested that the dechlorination was the first and the fastest step in the ozonation of alachlor.
