盐度对EGSB反应器的运行及厌氧颗粒污泥的影响

高盐废水通常含有高COD浓度,难以处理,引用具有耐盐性能的生物反应器处理高盐废水成为必要.使用模拟高盐废水在3.267 kg·(m~3·d)~(-1)的COD容积负荷下,将Cl~-浓度逐步从0提升至10 000 mg·L~(-1),研究盐度对膨胀颗粒污泥床(expanded granular sludge bed,EGSB)反应器的影响.结果表明,Cl~-浓度小于7 500 mg·L~(-1)时,对微生物的抑制作用较低;Cl~-浓度为7 500 mg·L~(-1)时,反应器的COD去除率能保持在98.1%左右,容积产气率能够基本保持在1.3 m~3·(m~3·d)~(-1)以上,大粒径的厌氧颗粒污泥仍然占据体系的主体;当Cl~-浓度为10 000 mg·L~(-1)时,反应器中的厌氧颗粒污泥受到严重影响.采用高通量测序技术对0和5 000 mg·L~(-1)两个Cl~-浓度下的厌氧颗粒污泥的微生物菌群结构进行分析,结果表明,盐度影响了微生物的种群分布,在5 000 mg·L~(-1)的Cl~-浓度下,主要的优势菌属由Cl~-浓度为0时的Methanoregula与Longilinea变为Methanobacterium、Methanospirillum、Methanothrix和Paludibacter.     

COD/SO_4~(2-)值对硫酸盐废水厌氧消化的影响

采用间歇试验方式,研究了COD/SO_4~(2-)值对硫酸盐废水厌氧消化的影响。试验结果表明,COD/SO_4~(2-)值是影响厌氧消化处理效果的主要参数。本试验中,COD/SO_4~(2-)>15,硫酸盐还原作用对厌氧反应器影响甚微;COD/SO_4~(2-)=5—15时,硫酸盐还原作用对厌氧反应器产生轻度抑制,相对产甲烷率为79.2％—94.7％;COD/SO_4~(2-)=0.5—5时,反应器受中度抑制,相对产甲烷率为61.6％—79.2％;COD/SO_4~(2-)<0.5时,反应器受严重抑制。COD/SO_4~(2-)≥1时,相对产甲烷率与COD/SO_4~(2-)值之间有很好的线性关系。     

硫酸盐还原——甲烷化两相厌氧处理工艺中的回流比研究

以硫酸盐还原—产甲烷两相厌氧新型工艺处理含高浓度硫酸盐有机废水,气提塔出水的回流比的操作选择十分关键。根据、电离平衡理论及最佳工艺条件要求(液相中的C_L(H_2S)≥208mg/L,c(S~(2-))≤500mg/L)推导出估算回流比的模型为[Bc_0(SO_4~(2-))/1500-1]/η≤R≤[Bc_0(SO_4~(2-))(1.49×10~(pH-7) 1)~(-1)/588-1]/η。以该模型为依据处理SO_4~(2-)浓度为10000mg/L合成废水时,得到总COD去除率和总硫酸盐还原率分别为92.6％和97.6％。     

不同COD浓度下低基质厌氧氨氧化的启动特征

采用厌氧序批式反应器(ASBR)处理NH4+-N和NO2--N浓度分别为(25. 00±0. 40) mg·L~(-1)和(33. 00±0. 60) mg·L~(-1)的模拟废水,在温度为30℃时,投加乙酸钠控制COD浓度分别为5. 00、15. 00、30. 00和50. 00 mg·L~(-1),研究对厌氧氨氧化启动的影响.结果表明:①4种COD浓度下分别经过74、94、106和129 d均能成功启动厌氧氨氧化. COD浓度为15. 00 mg·L~(-1)和30. 00 mg·L~(-1)时,反应器脱氮性能较好,稳定运行后,平均出水NH4+-N浓度分别为1. 98 mg·L~(-1)和1. 89 mg·L~(-1),平均出水NO2--N浓度低于0. 62 mg·L~(-1),平均出水TN浓度分别为2. 37、2. 28 mg·L~(-1);②启动过程中反硝化对脱氮的平均贡献率逐渐降低至4. 78%、9. 59%、10. 21%和36. 50%,厌氧氨氧化对脱氮的平均贡献率逐渐上升至95. 22%、90. 41%、89. 79%和63. 50%;③厌氧氨氧化活性分别在第44、76、86和114 d时超过反硝化活性,最后分别达到0. 700、0. 690、0. 670和0. 510mg·(g·h)~(-1),反硝化活性分别为0. 110、0. 130、0. 240和0. 410 mg·(g·h)~(-1).该研究结果可为厌氧氨氧化技术在实际工程中的应用提供参考.     

好氧-厌氧污泥耦合白腐真菌单元对焦化废水的处理

白腐真菌因能分泌胞外木质素降解酶降解难降解有机污染物,而在难降解有机废水处理中具有巨大应用潜力.其研究常采用白腐真菌直接处理废水,很少关注常规生物法耦合白腐真菌的处理方式.基于此,分别采用白腐真菌和好氧-厌氧污泥耦合Phanerochaete Chrysosporium处理焦化废水以考察后者的可行性.在好氧-厌氧污泥耦合P.chrysosporium的处理中,仅采用3 d的处理时间,好氧-厌氧污泥可将6097 mg·L~(-1)的COD和351 mg·L~(-1)的氨氮分别降至1634~1684 mg·L~(-1)和102~117 mg·L~(-1);进而固定化P.chrysosporium将COD和氨氮再次分别降至1322~1372 mg·L~(-1)和16~62 mg·L~(-1).最终COD和氨氮的去除率分别达77%~78%和82%~95%,这表明:好氧-厌氧污泥耦合P.chrysosporium处理焦化废水可在更短的处理周期完成比直接采用白腐真菌处理更好的处理效果,此思路合理可行.     

利用氢基质生物膜反应器去除水中砷酸盐

利用氢基质生物膜反应器(Hydrogen-based membrane biofilm reactor,MBfR)研究了NO_3~--N负荷、SO_4~(2-)负荷、As(Ⅴ)负荷、氢分压对水中砷去除效果的影响.结果表明,随着NO_3~--N进水负荷的增加,As(Ⅴ)和SO_4~(2-)还原受到明显抑制,系统产生As(Ⅲ)和NO_2~-的积累;随着SO_4~(2-)进水负荷的增加,反应器内总砷去除率由78.6%(25 mg·L-1SO_4~(2-))降低至1.1%(200 mg·L~(-1)SO_4~(2-)),而此时NO_3~--N的去除基本不受影响.同时,随着进水As(Ⅴ)负荷从0.25 mg·L~(-1)增至2 mg·L~(-1),出水SO_4~(2-)浓度明显升高,反应器内总砷去除率从70.0%降低至47.3%,而此时NO_3~--N的去除基本不受影响;当氢分压低于0.06 MPa时,提高氢分压可降低出水As(Ⅴ)浓度,当氢分压高于0.06 MPa后便不再是控制因素.由于体系中氢自养还原微生物会优先利用NO_3~--N和SO_4~(2-)作为电子受体,因此,为了保证As(Ⅴ)的高效还原去除,必须控制氢分压在0.05~0.07 MPa之间.     

硫自养反硝化处理高含氟光伏废水可行性

为了研究硫自养反硝化处理高含氟光伏废水的可行性,室温(20~25℃)下,采用驯化后的硫自养反硝化生物膜反应器,探究了不同进水F-浓度对硫自养反硝化脱氮效能的影响.结果表明,当进水F-浓度为0~700 mg·L~(-1)时,随着F-浓度的提升,反应器的脱氮效能逐渐提升,且当F-浓度为700 mg·L~(-1)时,可获最大TN去除速率1.0 kg·(m3·d)-1.当进水F-浓度在700~900 mg·L~(-1)时,经短期驯化,TN去除速率可稳定在0.81~0.87 kg·(m~3·d)~(-1).当进水F-浓度提升至900 mg·L~(-1)以上时,反应器的TN去除速率随进水F-浓度的提升而下降,最低至0.4~0.5 kg·(m~3·d)~(-1).以光伏废水为研究对象,在进水F-浓度为800 mg·L~(-1)左右,进水NO_3~--N浓度为390~420 mg·L~(-1),HRT为8.8 h的条件下,经50 d运行后,获得稳定的脱氮效能,TN去除速率为1.1 kg·(m~3·d)~(-1),出水TN为15~25 mg·L~(-1),达到污水接管排放标准.采用传统反硝化工艺和硫自养反硝化工艺脱氮处理光伏废水的成本分别为2.468元·t~(-1)和2.072 8元·t~(-1),硫自养反硝化工艺更节约脱氮处理成本.     

高氨氮废水短程硝化过程中N2O释放试验研究

试验采用序批式反应器(SBR)处理高氨氮废水,逐步提高废水氨氮(NH+4-N)浓度到800 mg·L-1,通过控制曝气量实现了短程硝化.SBR周期试验表明,在低溶解氧和高游离氨等共同作用下,氨氧化菌(AOB)活性较低,导致AOB以亚硝酸盐氮(NO_2~--N)作为电子受体进行好氧反硝化,氧化亚氮(N_2O)释放因子为9.8%.静态试验控制初始NH_4~+-N为100 mg·L-1且改变曝气量(0.22~0.88 L·min~(-1))条件下,溶解氧浓度的增加能够提高硝化菌活性,N2O释放因子为0.51%~0.85%.当初始NH_4~+-N浓度为100 mg·L~(-1)且曝气量控制在0.66 L·min-1时,初始NO-2-N浓度为0~100 mg·L~(-1)对硝化菌活性影响较小,N2O释放因子为0.50%~0.71%.当溶解氧和游离氨浓度控制在适宜范围内,可维持AOB较高活性,抑制AOB发生好氧反硝化作用,降低N2O释放率.     

COD/SO42-对青霉素菌渣厌氧消化影响

针对抗生素菌渣厌氧消化过程SO_4~(2-)的抑制问题,利用批试实验对不同COD/SO_4~(2-)比青霉素菌渣厌氧消化产气潜能以及产酸相物质利用特性进行了研究.结果表明,COD/SO_4~(2-)≥3时,微生物发生了适应性驯化,产气潜能在发酵10 d后逐渐恢复,累积产甲烷量(以TS计)超过208 m L·g-1,超过71%的COD转化为CH4;COD/SO_4~(2-)≤1.5时,产甲烷分别受到49%及完全抑制,有机物及SO_4~(2-)的去除率分别不足17%和5%,表明较高SO_4~(2-)负荷下产甲烷菌(MPB)及硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)同时发生抑制,COD平衡分析表明,转化为CH4的COD不足9.1%,而还原为SO_4~(2-)的COD保持在5.0%~9.0%,说明MPB比SRB对S2-的抑制更为敏感;S平衡分析表明,还原的SO_4~(2-)大部分以S2-的形式存在于发酵液中,少部分以H2S的形式存在于生物气中;产酸过程物质利用特性分析表明,溶解性蛋白质的甲烷化是在溶解性碳水化物甲烷化之后才开始.     

“异养-硫自养”组合工艺去除高浓度高氯酸盐特性

通过运行双室的异养-硫自养联合反应器(下部为异养区、上部为自养区),去除高浓度高氯酸盐(ClO_4~-)废水.考察不同进水碳氯比(C/Cl)和ClO_4~-浓度条件下,ClO_4~-的降解特性及出水硫酸盐(SO_4~(2-))浓度.结果表明,通过调节进水C/Cl比由2~1,反应器在36 d快速成功启动;进水ClO_4~-浓度由250 mg·L~(-1)提升至400 mg·L~(-1)时,微生物对高浓度ClO_4~-表现出良好的耐受性,ClO_4~-的去除率始终稳定在95%以上;通过调整C/Cl比至1.2,可减少自养区ClO_4~-负荷,使出水SO_4~(2-)浓度降至250 mg·L~(-1)以下.此外,本研究证实了细菌分泌的溶解性有机物中色氨酸和酪氨酸是造成自养区出水TOC升高的原因.由于采用异养-硫自养联合工艺,控制碳源的投加,从而减少了异养区污泥的产量;同时,异养区产生碱度可以平衡自养区产生的酸度,减少了自养过程中碱度的投加;异养区产生碳酸盐也可以作为自养区的碳源,实现了异养区和自养区功能上的"互补".     

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.     

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.     

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.     

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.     

Enzymatic oxidation of aqueous pentachlorophenol

The influence of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80 on pentachlorophenol （PCP） oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase was studied. The surfactant was tested at concentrations below and above its critical micelle concentration （CMC）. Enhancement of PCP removal was observed at sub-CMCs. The presence of Tween 80 in the reaction mixture reduced enzyme inactivation which occurred through a combination of free radical attack and sorption by precipitated products. A simple first-order model was able to simulate time profiles for enzyme inactivation in the presence or absence of Tween 80. At supra-CMCs, the surfactant caused noticeable reductions in PCP removal, presumably through micelle partitioning of PCP which precluded the hydrophobic PCP molecule from interacting with the enzyme.     

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.     

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.
