亲疏水性溶解性有机物对聚偏氟乙烯超滤膜污染行为

选用模拟亲疏水性有机物及实际二级处理水中的亲疏水性有机物,分别进行了聚偏氟乙烯(PVDF)超滤膜污染实验.并测定了不同污染物与膜及污染物间的作用力,分析亲/疏水性有机物对PVDF超滤膜的污染行为.结果表明,膜-污染物及污染物间相互作用力是控制膜污染行为的主导因素.亲水性有机物与PVDF超滤膜之间的相互亲和力较强,致使运行初期膜通量的大幅度下降,是PVDF膜的优势污染物.但是,针对实际污染物,运行后期,疏水性有机物之间较强的相互作用力使得其取代了亲水性有机物,成为膜的优势污染物.此外,模拟亲疏水性有机物的膜污染变化规律与实际亲疏水性有机物相似,表明使用模拟污染物可一定程度上预测实际废水中相应性能污染物的膜污染行为.     

基于海水和盐田水的正渗透驱动液

采用海水和盐田水作为驱动液,研究正渗透过程中的通量变化和膜污染特征,探索其作为驱动液的可行性。结果表明,海水和盐田水含有大量的盐离子,具有高的渗透压,海水、2#、5#和9#盐田水与0.42、0.8、2.2和4.2 mol/L的氯化钠具有同样的通量行为。随海水和盐田水浓度增加,通量增加,同时污染也越严重。扫描电子显微镜观察和荧光光谱分析发现,盐田水中的硅酸盐和有机物会沉积在膜表面,引起比较严重的膜污染,尤其是高浓度的盐田水。海水和盐田水作为正渗透过程中的驱动液需要进行一定的预处理。     

活性焦吸附对反渗透浓水膜蒸馏减排工艺的影响

本研究采用膜蒸馏(MD)技术,对煤化工废水2套处理工艺——(1)"混凝-超滤(UF)-反渗透(RO)工艺"和(2)"混凝-活性焦(AC)吸附-超滤-反渗透工艺"的RO浓水进行浓缩。通过对比分析MD的膜通量、产水水质以及膜污染等指标,重点考察AC吸附预处理对后续MD工艺的影响。结果表明,AC吸附作为前置膜处理工艺,可有效降低污染物在膜表面的沉积,减少膜润湿现象,并提高膜通量。GC-MS分析表明,AC能有效吸附废水中的酮类、醇类、酯类以及杂环类等挥发性有机物,降低MD过程中挥发至产水侧的有机物浓度,从而提高MD产水水质。

SO2、NO对汞在湿法电除尘器中脱除的影响

湿法电除尘器(WESP)作为一种控制烟气中超细颗粒物的有效手段被应用于燃煤电厂的超低排放改造中,然而烟气中的Hg~0受电场、水膜、烟气组分等因素的影响在WESP中的协同脱除机理尚不明确。为了深入了解该机理,探讨了WESP电场和水膜对Hg~0的控制机理,并进一步研究了烟气中SO_2、NO对Hg~0在WESP中脱除的影响。结果表明:电场静电作用对烟气中Hg~0脱除贡献较小,O_2电离产物?O对Hg~0的氧化作用是O_2促进Hg~0脱除的主要途径,水蒸气通过电离产生?OH促进Hg~0氧化以及通过黏附作用促进Hg~0脱除;水膜的裹挟作用对WESP系统Hg~0的脱除贡献较小,溶于水中的汞不稳定且容易再释放;SO_2、NO均通过在电场中电离产生?O促进Hg~0氧化脱除,其中,SO_2及其电离产物溶于水膜后可以与Hg~(2+)形成稳定配合物抑制汞的再释放,而NO的电离产物在水膜中对汞再释放的抑制作用较小。

复合式膜生物反应器膜污染机理研究

通过在膜生物反应器中添加填料,在保持良好出水水质的前提下可有效降低悬浮污泥浓度,从而减轻膜表面的污泥沉积,减轻膜污染。在处理生活污水的试验中,膜表面泥饼层阻力在总阻力中的比例下降到10％,而膜孔吸附阻力中由溶解性有机物所造成的阻力占到83．3％,这表明由于膜表面的污泥沉积降低,膜组件对溶解性有机物的吸附增加,因而应当选择合适的污泥浓度以得到最佳的综合效果。

Closed-Loop Recovery of Site Remediation Gas Phase Contaminants

A novel gas phase treatment system (contaminant absorption and recovery [CAR]) for removal and subsequent recycling of gas phase VOCs from soil vapor extraction/gas stripping systems has been developed. Gas phase removal efficiencies using a packed column contactor exceed 99 percent The VOC-laden absorption fluid is subsequently vacuum-stripped of the VOCs, allowing potential condensation into liquid solvent concentrates. Partition coefficients for trichloroethylene (TCE) in triethylene glycol (TEG) ranged to ca. 5.0 mole fraction gas/mole fraction liquid, indicating a significant capacity for removal from the gas phase. Results of pilot-scale operation indicate favorable removal efficiencies and cost-effective performance in comparison to GAC or thermal destruction processes. System mass transfer coefficient predictions were done, using a variety of mathematical models and compared to experimental results. A modified Mangers and Ponten correlation was found to describe system mass transfer coefficients well. The impact of water carry-over on TCE/TEG partitioning was found to be significant. The standard change in entholpy (ΔH°) and the standard change in volume (ΔV°) values were also calculated, and predictions of temperature and pressure on system performance were evaluated.     

Modeling of air sparging of VOC-contaminated soil columns

Air sparging is a remediation technology currently being applied for the restoration of sites contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Attempts have been made by various researchers to model the fate of VOCs in the gas and liquid phase during air sparging. In this study, a radial diffusion model with an air–water mass transfer boundary condition was developed and applied for the prediction of VOC volatilization from air sparging of contaminated soil columns. The approach taken was to use various parameters such as mass transfer coefficients and tortuosity factors determined previously in separate experiments using a single air channel apparatus and applying these parameters to a complex system with many air channels. Incorporated in the model, is the concept of mass transfer zone (MTZ) where diffusion of VOCs in this zone was impacted by the volatilization of VOCs at the air–water interface but with negligible impact outside the zone. The model predicted fairly well the change in the VOC concentrations in the exhaust air, the final average aqueous VOC concentration, and the total mass removed. The predicted mass removal was within 1% to 20% of the actual experimental mass removed. The results of the model seemed to suggest that air-sparged soil columns may be modeled as a composite of individual air channels surrounded by a MTZ. For a given air flow rate and air saturation, the VOC removal was found to be inversely proportional to the radius of the air channel. The approach taken provided conceptual insights on mass transfer processes during air sparging operations.     

A Field Demonstration of the UV/Oxidation Technology to Treat Ground Water Contaminated with VOCs

This paper presents the Geld evaluation results of the ultraviolet radiation (UV)/oxidation technology developed by Ultrox International, Santa Ana, California. The Geld evaluation was performed at the Lorentz Barrel and Drum (LB&D) site in San Jose, California, under the Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation program in February and March of 1989.

The UV/oxidation technology uses UV radiation, ozone, and hydrogen peroxide to oxidize organic contaminants present in water. At the LB&D site, this technology was evaluated in treating ground water contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The Ultrox system achieved VOC removals greater than 90 percent. Most VOCs were removed through chemical oxidation. However, for a few VOCs, such as 1, 1, 1-trichloroethane and 1, 1-dichloroethane, stripping also contributed toward removal. The treated ground water met the applicable discharge standards for discharge into a local waterway at 95 percent confidence level. There were no harmful air emissions to the atmosphere from the Ultrox system, which is equipped with an off-gas treatment unit.

Sorption and Biodegradation of Vapor-Phase Organic Compounds with Wastewater Sludge and Food Waste Compost

ABSTRACT

To test the possible use of composted food waste and wastewater sludge as biofilters to treat gas-phase volatile organic compounds (VOCs), batch experiments were conducted with an isolated strain that could degrade aromatic compounds under aerobic conditions. A benzene and trichloroethylene (TCE) mixture was used as the gas-phase pollutant in experiments with composted food waste, sludge, and soil. Under aerobic conditions, benzene was degraded as a primary substrate and TCE was degraded cometabolically, with water contents varying from 6 to 60% (volume of water added/volume of solid). Optimal water content for VOC removal was 12% for the soil, 36% for the composted food waste, and 48% for the sludge.

The extent of VOC sorption and biodegradation at the optimal water content was different for each material. With the same initial VOC concentration, more VOCs were removed by sorption onto the composted food waste and the sludge, while less VOCs were biodegraded in comparison with the results using soil. The reason the biodegradation in the soil was greater may be partly attributed to the fact that, due to less sorption, the aqueous-phase concentration of VOCs, which microorganisms could utilize as a carbon source or cometabolize, was higher. We also speculate that the distribution of microorganisms in each medium affects the rate of biodegradation. A large number of microorganisms were attached to the composted food waste and sludge. Mass transfer of VOCs and oxygen to these microorganisms, which appear to have been heterogeneously distributed in clusters, may have been limited, resulting in hindered biodegradation.

Can ornamental potted plants remove volatile organic compounds from indoor air? — a review

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are found in indoor air, and many of these can affect human health (e.g. formaldehyde and benzene are carcinogenic). Plants affect the levels of VOCs in indoor environments, thus they represent a potential green solution for improving indoor air quality that at the same time can improve human health. This article reviews scientific studies of plants’ ability to remove VOCs from indoor air. The focus of the review is on pathways of VOC removal by the plants and factors affecting the efficiency and rate of VOC removal by plants. Laboratory based studies indicate that plant induced removal of VOCs is a combination of direct (e.g. absorption) and indirect (e.g. biotransformation by microorganisms) mechanisms. They also demonstrate that plants’ rate of reducing the level of VOCs is influenced by a number of factors such as plant species, light intensity and VOC concentration. For instance, an increase in light intensity has in some studies been shown to lead to an increase in removal of a pollutant. Studies conducted in real-life settings such as offices and homes are few and show mixed results.     

Bio-oxidation of airborne volatile organic compounds in an activated sludge aeration tank

An activated sludge aeration tank (40 x 40 x 300 cm, width x length x height) with a set of 2-mm orifice air spargers was used to treat gas-borne volatile organic compounds (VOCs; toluene, p-xylene, and dichloromethane) in air streams. The effects of liquid depth (Z), aeration intensity (G/A), the overall mass-transfer rate of oxygen in clean water (KLaO2), the Henry's law constant of the tested VOC (H), and the influent gaseous VOC concentration (C0) on the efficiency of removal of VOCs were examined and compared with a literature-cited model. Results show that the measured VOC removal efficiencies and those predicted by the model were comparable at a G/A of 3.75-11.25 m3/m2 hr and C0 of approximately 1000-6000 mg/m3. Experimental data also indicated that the designed gas treatment reactor with KLaO2 = 5-15 hr(-l) could achieve > 85% removal of VOCs with H = 0.24-0.25 at an aerated liquid depth of 1 m and > 95% removal of dichloromethane with H = 0.13 at a 1-m liquid depth.     

Effect of VOC loading on the ozone removal efficiency of activated carbon filters

Activated carbon (AC) filters are used widely in air cleaning to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and ozone (O(3)). This paper investigates the O(3) removal efficiency of AC filters after previous exposure to VOCs. Filter performance was tested using coconut shell AC and two common indoor VOCs, toluene and d-limonene, representing low and high reactivities with O(3). AC dosed with low, medium and high loadings (28-100% of capacity) of VOCs were exposed to humidified and ozonated air. O(3) breakthrough curves were measured, from which O(3) removal capacity and parameters of the Elovich chemisorption equation were determined. VOC-loaded filters were less efficient at removing O(3) and had different breakthrough behavior than unloaded filters. After 80 h of exposure, VOC-loaded AC samples exhibited 75-95% of the O(3) removal capacity of unloaded samples. O(3) breakthrough and removal capacity were not strongly influenced by the VOC-loading rate. Toluene-loaded filters showed rapid O(3) breakthrough due to poisoning of the AC, while pseudo-poisoning (initially higher O(3) adsorption rates that rapidly decrease) is suggested for limonene-loaded filters. Overall, VOC loadings provide an overall reduction in chemisorption rates, a modest reduction in O(3) removal capacity, and sometimes dramatic changes in breakthrough behavior, important considerations in filter applications in environments where both O(3) and VOCs are present.
