基于中心组合设计的电解预处理含酚废水工艺优化

针对含酚废水不宜直接进行生化处理的问题,采用电解法预处理含酚废水,通过中心组合设计优化初始p H、电压、极板间距、电解质浓度和苯酚初始浓度对苯酚去除率的影响。结果表明,5个因素的影响为电压电解质浓度极板间距初始p H苯酚初始浓度。优化后的最佳条件如下:初始p H为6.56、电压为24.93 V、极板间距为20.05 mm、电解质质量浓度为2.46 g/L、苯酚初始质量浓度为368.87 mg/L。在优化条件下,苯酚初始质量浓度为300.00~500.00 mg/L时,出水质量浓度计算值为12.60~51.60mg/L,实验值为17.40~55.40 mg/L,去除率计算值为89.68%~96.47%,实验值为88.90%~95.40%,计算值与实验值接近,说明模型可靠。     

诱导结晶工艺中诱晶载体的选择与改性

以含铜废水为处理对象,重点考察了诱晶载体的表面性质及表面负荷对诱导结晶过程的影响。结果表明,在工艺启动初期,白云石以及碱式碳酸铜为诱晶载体时,铜的去除率在90%以上,石英砂对铜的去除率较低,但石英砂经表面改性后对铜的去除效率亦可达90%以上。在运行稳定后,几类诱导载体对铜的去除率皆能稳定在95%,说明诱晶载体的表面性质对诱导结晶工艺的影响主要在于反应启动初期,选择与目标结晶产物结构、成分相同或相似的诱晶载体有利于诱导结晶过程的进行。此外,研究结果还表明,诱晶载体表面负荷对结晶过程影响较大,诱导结晶除铜工艺中载体表面负荷不宜高于0.054 g Cu/(m2.d)。

Greenhouse gas induced climate change

Simulations using global coupled climate models predict a climate change due to the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases and aerosols in the atmosphere. Both are associated with the burning of fossil fuels. There has been considerable debate if this postulated human influence is already evident. This paper gives an overview on some recent material on this question. One particular study using optimal fingerprints (Hegerl et al., 1996) is explained in more detail. In this study, an optimal fingerprint analysis is applied to temperature trend patterns over several decades. The results show the probability being less than 5% that the most recently observed 30 year trend is due to naturally occurring climate fluctuations. This result suggests that the present warming is caused by some external influence on climate, e.g. by the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols. More work is needed to address the uncertainties in the magnitude of naturally occurring climate fluctuations. Also, other external influences on climate need to be investigated to uniquely attribute the present climate change to the human influence.     

Light induced transformation of tribenuron-methyl

To study the photostability of sulfonylurea herbicide tribenuron-methyl (methyl 2-[[[[ N-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl) methylamino] carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]benzoate), in the field, model experiments with organic solvents were performed. Irradiation of tribenuron-methyl in methanol, isopropanol and cyclohexane yielded 4-methoxy-6-methyl-2-aminomethyl-1,3,5-triazine; methyl-2-(aminosulfonyl) benzoate; N-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-methyl urea; N-(2-carbomethoxy phenyl)-N-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N'-methyl urea; 2-(aminosulfonyl) benzoic acid, N-methyl saccharin and saccharin in considerable amounts. The rate of degradation in different solvents followed first-order kinetics with a statistically significant correlation coefficient.     

Auxin induced stress tolerance in algae

IAA effect on responses of West African algae Caloglosa, Bostrychia, Rhizoclonium and the fresh water alga Pithophora to different growth conditions was examined in growth chamber experiments. The auxin (2.28 x 10(-5) M) caused growth increase of 2.3- and 2.6-fold in Caloglossa and 1.6 and 1.7 in Rhizoclonium, respectively, in sea water and 1:1 diluted sea water/Erdschreiber medium. In Bostrychia pronounced deterioration of growth was noticed in the control samples between 16 and 32 days in culture. The cultures maintained an active growth, however, in the presence of IAA. IAA also allowed Pithophora to withstand salinity: Compared to growth in fresh water, a 65% growth inhibition was recorded in 1:1 diluted sea water in the absence of auxin and a slight growth stimulation when the auxin was present. Pithophora and Rhizoclonium also maintained higher rates of growth in extremal temperatures of 10 and 45 degrees C when the auxin was present.     

Photochemically induced interactions in Ekofisk crude oil

Evidence for photochemically induced interactions in Ekofisk crude oil as a thin film on top of a water surface has been obtained by isotopic labelling experiments and field desorbtion mass spectrometry. The interaction behaviour to the high molecular weight resin/asphaltene material has been discussed by invoking the concept of molecular assemblies like micelles and vesicles. This latter chromophoric material has also been shown to have an appreciable sensitizing effect, resulting in a substantial transformation of carbon 14 radiolabelled species, including straight chain n-alkanes.Isotopic studies do not provide evidence for interactions in Ekofisk crude oil constituents kept in darkness, where only a very slow transformation/degradation of oil components has been observed.The implication of these findings has been discussed.     

Avermectin induced inflammation damage in king pigeon brain

To determine the effect of Avermectin (AVM) on inflammation damage in king pigeon brain, eighty two-month-old American king pigeons were randomly divided into four groups, and were fed with either commercial diet or AVM-supplemented diet containing 20 mg kg⁻¹ diet, 40 mg kg⁻¹ diet, and 60 mg kg⁻¹ diet AVM for 30, 60 and 90 d, respectively. Then, the expression level of inflammatory factors (iNOS, PTGEs, NF-κB), histological damage, and ultra-structural damage were examined. It showed that AVM caused higher expressions (P < 0.05) of iNOS, PTGEs, NF-κB with disorganized histological and ultra-structural structures in cerebrum, cerebellum, and optic lobe. Meanwhile, inflammatory and histopathological damage were induced by AVM in king pigeon brains. In addition, the main targeted organelle in nervous system was mitochondria, which indicated that mitochondria may be relevant to the process of inflammation induced by AVM. To our best knowledge, this is the first report to study the toxic effect of AVM on inflammatory damage in king pigeon. Thus, the information presented in this study is believed to be helpful in supplementing data for further AVM toxicity study.

Carbaryl stress induced cellular changes in Calothrix brevissima

Cyanobacterial biofertilizers are affected by paddy field pesticides as nontarget organism. Carbaryl is a carbamate pesticide and is commonly used against rice thrip pest in paddy fields. In the present work, cellular changes caused by exposure of the cyanobacterial biofertilizer namely Calothrix brevissima to carbaryl were studied with special reference to fatty acids, electrolyte leakage, sulfur metabolism, and osmolytes. To study the toxic effect of carbaryl, the test cyanobacterium was exposed to varying concentrations of pesticide (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mg L^?1) for biochemical analyses. At 40 mg L^?1 carbaryl, polyunsaturated fatty acids were reduced by 32 % and membrane leakage was increased by 27 % suggesting that free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation took place. The sulfur-containing metabolites namely cysteine, cystine, and methionine were increased by 79, 64, and 52 %, respectively. The enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants namely glutathione S-transferase, glutathione reductase, reduced glutathione, and oxidized glutathione were increased to 56, 71, 72, and 60 %, respectively. Osmolytes that serve as stress enzyme protectors as well as nonenzymatic free radical scavenger were also increased, indicating their protective nature in context with carbaryl-induced stress. The respective increase in mannitol, trehalose, and glycogen were 158, 98, and 159 %. In C. brevissima, carbaryl-induced membrane leakage was counteracted by increasing enzymatic and nonenzymatic parameters that helped in scavenging free radicals.     

On the thermally induced isomerisation of hexabromocyclododecane stereoisomers

The interconversion of the stereoisomers contained in technical 1,2,5,6,9,10-hexabromocyclododecane, a major brominated flame retardant increasingly found in the environment and in biota, was investigated at elevated temperatures. The application of pure enantiomers of the three constituents alpha-, beta-, and gamma-HBCD enabled the unambiguous elucidation of the individual isomerisation reactions as well as the quantification of all respective rate constants. At 160 degrees C the rate constants range over two orders of magnitude from 1.50x10(-3) to 1.88x10(-5)mol(%)s(-1). A preliminary mechanistic explanation for the differences of the rate constants which govern the composition of HBCD diastereomers at equilibrium is given.

Pentachlorophenol induced physiological-biochemical changes in Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture

Present study investigated physiological and biochemical changes in a green alga culture (Chlorella pyrenoidosa) upon exposure to varied concentrations of pentachlorophenol (PCP) (0, 0.4 mgL(-1), 2.5 mgL(-1) and 10 mgL(-1)). The results revealed that with the increase of PCP concentration, a decrease of the algal biomass, levels of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b and carotenoid), soluble protein and an increase of nitrate reductase (NR) activity were observed. This suggests that the PCP may serve as an uncoupler, causing low ATP level within the algal cells and led most of the NR molecules to be in the dephosphoration state (i.e. active from). Moreover, it shows that photosynthetic pigments especially carotenoid were more sensitive indicators to indicate PCP toxicity as compared to the other parameters.
