微污染水源中溶解性有机氮组成规律及其水处理特性

以上海市黄浦江和青草沙长江原水为对象,研究了两大水源水中溶解性有机氮(DON)的含量变化、分子组成特征及其在常规净水工艺中的去除效果,并对DON与常规水处理指标间的相关性进行了分析.结果表明:两种原水以DOC、DON和UV254表征的有机物含量均以小分子量(5kDa)和亲水性有机物为主;微污染黄浦江原水中同时存在外源性及内源性污染,而青草沙长江原水中内源性污染占主导地位;饮用水常规净水处理工艺对黄浦江原水中DON的去除率为40%,优于长江原水DON的去除率16.7%;黄浦江和长江原水DON浓度与DOC和UV254相关性良好,其相关系数分别为0.59,0.52和0.74,0.51;鉴于常规处理对DON去除效果有限,而DON是导致强三致特性含氮消毒副产物(N-DBPs)的总前体物,因此水厂应通过强化常规、深度处理等手段改善DON在净水工艺中的去除效果.

不同氧化剂降低膜污染效果的研究

采用不同的氧化剂预处理黄浦江原水后进行微滤膜(MF)膜过滤试验,考察预氧化对有机物的去除作用,及其对MF膜过滤特性的影响.结果表明,3种不同氧化剂对有机物的去除效果存在较大差别.臭氧投量在0.5~3.0mg/L范围内,臭氧对DOC和UV254的去除率最高分别为10%和71%;而氯和高锰酸钾对有机物的去除效果则较差.臭氧可将大分子有机物转变成小分子有机物,将大部分疏水性有机物氧化成亲水性有机物.这种有机物组成结构的改变对膜过滤特性产生影响,明显降低了膜污染,膜污染下降率最高可达到22.7%.氯和高锰酸钾的氧化性相对较弱,仅能去除少部分疏水性有机物,对膜污染有较小减缓作用,膜污染下降率最高分别为9%和8.5%.     

强化混凝去除黄浦江水有机物的试验研究

强化混凝去除有机物的效果与水源的分子量分布特性有着密切的关系.由于黄浦江水中低分子量的溶解性有机物占多数,因此,强化混凝处理有机物效果有限.对于＜1k分子量区间的有机物.增加混凝剂投量可有效去除紫外吸光值(UV254),但去除溶解性有机碳(DOC)的效果很差.尽管增加混凝剂投量和降低pH都能有效地去除有机物,但决定强化混凝效果的主要因素是pH,去除黄浦江水有机物的最佳pH范围为6～5.     

城市污水二级出水有机物分子量分布和亲疏水特性对纳滤膜污染的影响

分别采用分子量分级膜和XAD-8树脂,研究了污水厂二级出水中有机物分子量分布特征及不同分子量分布区间亲疏水有机物的相对含量,考察了分子量分布及亲疏水特性对纳滤膜透水性能的影响.结果表明,二级出水有机物中,小分子亲水性有机物含量最高,小于2k的有机物占总有机物含量的45.61%,其中亲水性物质占28.07%,疏水性物质占17.54%;不同特征的原水分别经纳滤膜过滤,分子量分布对膜污染影响较大,分子量小于30k时,分子量区间越小,比通量衰减越快,分子量大于30k时,分子量区间越大,比通量衰减越快,且分子量较小的有机物通量衰减程度大于分子量较大有机物;在分子量分布相同区间内,亲水性有机物的比通量衰减较慢,说明相同分子量时,膜对亲水性物质的截留率较低,而疏水性物质是引起膜通量衰减的主要原因.     

不同组分的有机物对膜过滤通量下降的影响

采用DAX-8、XAD-4、IRA-958型树脂将自来水中有机物分离成强疏水性、弱疏水性、极性亲水性、中性亲水性有机物,以聚偏氟乙烯、聚醚砜、醋酸纤维3种材质的膜对各组分水样进行膜过滤试验,研究不同组分的有机物对膜过滤通量的影响.结果表明,过滤原水时,PES膜、PVDF膜和CA膜的通量分别比初始通量下降了67%、 59%和19%,表明疏水性越强的膜,越容易造成污染.就各种组分对通量的影响而言,过滤中性亲水性组分的通量下降为初始通量的41%～75%,而弱疏水性组分为6%～33%,表明中性亲水性组分对膜过滤通量的影响最大.3种膜中,CA膜对中性亲水性组分的截留率最高,达14.69%,但通量下降程度却最小,说明膜通量下降的程度并不与有机物截留总量正相关.对膜污染机制进行探讨后发现,对于截留分子量较大的超滤或微滤膜,相对分子质量>3×10⁴的中性亲水性组分通过堵塞膜孔内部,从而造成严重的膜污染;而对于截留分子量较小的超滤膜,中性亲水性组分由于无法进入膜孔,主要在膜表面形成滤饼层,从而对膜通量的影响较小.     

混凝和活性炭吸附去除微污染水源水中DON的研究

溶解性有机氮(dissolved organic nitrogen,DON)作为饮用水中新兴氮消毒副产物(nitrogenous disinfection by-products,N-DBPs)的前体物逐渐受到国内外学者的关注.为探讨混凝和活性炭吸附对微污染水源水中DON的去除机制,首先测定原水中DON、溶解性有机炭(dissolved organic carbon,DOC)、NH4+-N、UV254、pH和溶解氧(dissolved oxygen,DO)等指标和DON、DOC分子量分布;接着通过混凝和活性炭吸附试验来考察原水中DON、DOC和UV254变化,并应用三维荧光光谱对原水中DON变化进行表征.结果表明,微污染水源水中DON、DOC和UV254分别为1.28 mg.L-1、8.56 mg.L-1和0.16 cm-1,DOC与DON比值(DOC/DON)为6.69 mg.mg-1,SUVA为1.87 m-1.(mg.L-1)-1;小分子量(<6 000)DON占较高比例约为68%,大分子量(>20 000)DON占的比例为22%;当混凝剂投加量为10 mg.L-1,DON的去除率大约为20%,DOC和UV254去除率约26%、70%;当活性炭投加量为1.0 g,DON、DOC和UV254的去除率大约为60%、35%、100%;混凝和活性炭吸附组合试验时,对DON、DOC的去除率大约为82%和64%;三维荧光光谱证实,原水中DON变化与3个主要峰有关,分别代表物质为色氨酸类蛋白质、芳香族类蛋白质和富里酸类物质.     

东江水源水中有机物分子量分布特征研究

采用超滤膜法考察了东江水源水中有机物分子量分布特点,研究了东江泄洪和不泄洪水源水中有机物分子量分布的变化特征。结果表明,东江水源水在不泄洪期间水源水中的溶解性有机物主要为小分子量的有机物。而在泄洪期间,东江水源水中溶解性有机物主要为大分子量的有机物。UV254的分布和有机物分子量分布一致,DOC与UV254具有良好的相关性。泄洪期间水源水中SUVA值小于3,水体中有机物很难通过常规混凝工艺去除,此结果与水厂的实际运行情况相吻合。     

亲水聚合物改性微滤膜在膜生物反应器中的膜污染研究

采用经过聚合多巴胺和氨基聚乙二醇(mPEG-NH_2)表面改性的PVDF微滤膜,通过浸没在膜生物反应器(MBR)中验证改性微滤膜的抗污染性能.同时,采用多种分析手段对改性膜进行表征,包括膜表面微观形貌、润湿性、粗糙度和表面官能团等.实验同时考察了改性膜在MBR中运行的水通量衰减、污染膜的阻力分布,以及对膜面污染物的胞外多聚物组分的影响.结果发现,所采用的膜改性方法明显改善了膜表面的亲水性.短期过滤实验结果表明,多巴胺涂覆膜的稳定通量比原膜高47%,PEG改性膜则在水通量方面有进一步提高;在长期恒通量过滤阶段,多巴胺涂覆膜和PEG接枝膜的比膜通量分别比原膜高37%和88%.实验还发现,改性膜表面滤饼层中蛋白质和多糖含量均低于原膜.     

UV/H2 O2法对印染废水生化出水中不同种类有机物的去除效果

采用UV/H2O2高级氧化法对印染废水生化出水的处理进行研究,探讨了不同反应时间、H2O2投加量、反应初始pH值等因素对UV254,ADMI7.6、DOC和COD去除效果的影响.结果表明,以UV254、ADMI7.6、DOC和COD的去除率为筛选依据,确定出最佳参数组合为:反应初始pH值为原水pH 7.4～8.1,H2O2投加量为4.5 mmol.L-1,紫外光照射时间为50 min,在最佳处理条件下,UV254、ADMI7.6、DOC和COD的去除率分别达到77%、94%、40%和69%.通过XAD-8/XAD-4吸附树脂联用技术将印染废水生化出水中溶解性有机物分为疏水酸、非酸疏水物质、弱疏水物质及亲水物质4类有机物,研究了UV/H2O2氧化工艺对生化出水中各种有机物及色度的去除效果.实验结果表明,对于该印染废水的生化出水,疏水性物质是引起色度的主要物质,所占比例以ADMI7.6表征时为92%,其中以非酸疏水物质的贡献最大,达到53%.UV/H2O2高级氧化法处理此水样中的弱疏水性有机物、疏水酸和非酸疏水物质均有较好的处理效果,对亲水性有机物的处理效果较差.实验表明,相对分子质量>10 000的大分子有机物对DOC和ADMI7.6的去除贡献较大,对UV254的去除贡献接近一半.     

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.     

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.     

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.

Effects of chitosan on growth of an aquatic plant (Hydrilla verticillata) in polluted waters with different chemical oxygen demands

Effects of chitosan on a submersed plant, Hydrilla verticillata, were investigated. Results indicated that H. venicillata could prevent ultrastructure phytotoxicities and oxidativereaction from polluted water with high chemical oxygen demand (COD). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents in H. verticillata treated with 0.1% chitosan in wastewater increased with high COD (980 mg/L) and decreased with low COD (63 mg/L), respectively. Ultrastructural analysis showed that the stroma and grana of chloroplast basically remained normal. However, plant cells from the control experiment (untreated with chitosan) were vacuolated and the cell interval increased. The relict of protoplast moved to the center, with cells tending to disjoint. Our findings indicate that wastewater with high COD concentration can cause a substantial damage to submersed plant, nevertheless, chitosan probably could alleviate the membrane lipid peroxidization and ultrastructure phytotoxicities, and protect plant cells from stress of high COD concentration polluted water.     

Removal of cadmium using MnO2 loaded D301 resin

MnO2 loaded weak basic anion exchange resin D301 （Anion exchange resin, macroreticular weak basic styrene） as adsorbent has been prepared and applied to the removal of cadmium. The adsorption characteristics have been investigated with respect to effect of pH, equilibrium isotherms, removal kinetic data, and interference of the coexisting ions. The results indicated that the Cd^2＋ could be efficiently removed using MnO2 loaded D301 resin in the pH range of 3-8 from aqueous solutions with the co-existence of high concentration of alkali and alkaline-earth metals ions. The saturate adsorption capacity of the Cd^2＋ was 77.88 mg/g. The adsorption process followed the pseudo first-order kinetics. The equilibrium data obtained in this study accorded excellently with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.     

Effect of coagulation pretreatment on the fouling of ultrafiltration membrane

The purpose of this study is to understand the effect and mechanism of preventing membrane fouling, by coagulation pretreatment, in terms of fractional component and molecular weight of natural organic matter （NOM）. A relatively higher molecular weight （MW） of hydrophobic compounds was responsible for a rapid decline in the ultrafiltration flux. Coagulation could effectively remove the hydrophobic organics, resulting in the increase of flux. It was found that a lower MW of neutral hydrophilic compounds, which could remove inadequately by coagulation, was responsible for the slow declining flux. The fluxes in the filtration of coagulated water and supernatant water were compared and the results showed that a lower MW of neutral hydrophilic compounds remained in the supernatant water after coagulation could be rejected by a membrane, resulting in fouling. It was also found that the coagulated flocs could absorb neutral hydrophilic compounds effectively. Therefore, with the coagulated flocs formed on the membrane surface, the flux decline could be improved.     

Penetration analysis of elements and bioleaching treatment of spent refractory for recycling

Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ATCC23270 and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans TM-32 were used for bioleaching of spent refractories of aluminium and copper melting furnaces for their recycling.Firstly,penetration of elements into aluminium melting furnace refractory was investigated and it was found that up to 7 cm from surface was contaminated.Comparison on leaching efficiency by the strains ATCC23270 and TM-32 found that the strain ATCC23270 could treat larger amount of the refractories than the strain TM-32 could do.In the experiment of bioleaching of spent refractory aluminium melting furnace by the strain ATCC23270,high leaching efficiency were obtained on Al,Si,and Ca,and extremely low leaching performance was,however,shown on the rest of elements i.e.,Na,Mn,and Zn.Under the strain TM-32 use,relatively high leaching performance was recognized on Al,Si,Ca,Na,Mn,and Zn.In the experiment of bioleaching for spent refractory copper melting furnace,almost the same leaching trends were shown on Cu,Zn,Al,and Si under the strains ACTT23270 and TM-32 uses.     

Simultaneous removal of ammonium and phosphate by zeolite synthesized from coal fly ash as influenced by acid treatment

Zeolite synthesized from fly ash （ZFA） without modification is not efficient for the purification of NH4＋ and phosphate at low concentrations that occur in real effluents, despite the high potential removal capacity. To develop an effective technique to enhance the removal efficiency of ammonium and phosphate at low concentrations, ZFA was modified with acid treatment and the simultaneous removal of ammonium and phosphate in a wide range of concentration was investigated. It was seen that when compared with untreated ZFA, only the treatment by 0.01 mol/L of H2SO4 significantly improved the removal efficiency of ammonium at low initial concentrations. The behavior was well explained by the pH effect. Treatment by more concentrated H2SO4 led to the deterioration of the ZFA structure and a decrease in the cation exchange capacity. Treatment by 0.01 mol/L H2SO4 improved the removal efficiency of phosphate by ZFA at all initial P concentrations, while the treatment by concentrated H2SO4 （≥0.9 mol/L） resulted in a limited maximum phosphate immobilization capacity （PIC）. It was concluded that through a previous mild acid treatment （e.g. 0.01 mol/L of H2SO4）, ZFA can be used in the simultaneous removal of NH4＋ and P at low concentrations simulating real effluent.
