硫酸盐还原菌去除流动废水中锑的研究

硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)通过代谢作用将废水中的SO_4~(2-)还原为H_2S,H_2S将Sb(Ⅴ)还原为Sb(Ⅲ),Sb(Ⅲ)再与多余的H_2S反应生成硫化锑沉淀,从而达到去除废水中锑的目的。本实验研究SRB在连续流动状态下对废水中锑的去除情况。在含锑废水处理过程中,加入活性炭形成生物膜,水力停留时间控制在33h,并通过测定物理化学变量p H、Eh、OD、SO_4~(2-)、H_2S、HCO_3~-、Sb(V)和Sb(Ⅲ)随时间的变化来确定去除效果。结果表明,在连续流动状态下,SRB可以较好的去除废水中的锑,且10 d后含锑废水的去除率达到95.2%。     

以稻草和污泥为碳源硫酸盐还原菌处理酸性矿山排水

以污泥为硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)接种菌群,分别添加等量稻草和乙醇,研究了SRB以不同碳源处理酸性矿山排水(pH=2.5)的过程及不同碳源对硫酸盐还原和重金属去除的影响.结果表明,在无外加中和剂的情况下,污泥中的碱性物质可在反应开始的1 d内迅速中和酸性矿山排水的部分酸度,使反应体系pH值从2.5升至5.4～6.3,利于SRB的生长.污泥中含少量易被微生物分解的有机物,体系中仅含污泥时,SO24-还原率最低(65.9%).添加稻草可促进SO24-还原(79.2%),因为污泥中的水解菌加速稻草分解,为SRB提供相对充足的碳源.添加乙醇为对照试验的体系中SO24-还原率最高(97.9%).含污泥的反应体系Cu2+去除率均高于99%,SRB驯化前Cu2+的去除主要归因于污泥的吸附作用.以稻草和污泥为碳源可实现低成本酸性矿山排水处理,对矿山环境的原位修复有实际意义.     

硫酸盐在厌氧生物过程中的行为 Ⅱ.硫酸盐还原行为及对体系抑制作用机理

采用半连续实验方法,研究了中温厌氧条件下硫酸盐的还原行为及产生抑制作用的机理.实验结果表明,SO_4~(2-)在厌氧体系中被硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)全部或部分还原为硫化物,其还原率与SO_4~(2-)累积加入浓度有关.还原产物的形态与体系中pH值有关,较高的pH值(7.6—8.4)使体系中H_3S含量下降.SO_4~(2-)对厌氧体系的抑制与SO_4~(2-)还原过程中SRB与产甲烷菌(MRB)的底物竞争及还原产物的毒性相关.前者受COD/SO_4~(2-)比值的影响,比值大于7,对厌氧体系只产生轻度抑制作用.而后者与沼气中H_2S含量有直接关系,沼气中H_3S含量小于40mg/L时,基本不产生抑制作用.     

SO_4~(2-)对SRB颗粒污泥性能的影响

文章利用取自厌氧折流板反应器中的硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)颗粒污泥,通过间歇试验,研究了不同质量浓度的SO42-对SRB颗粒污泥性能的影响。结果表明,当SO42-质量浓度为2000mg/L,COD与SO42-质量浓度的比值ω(COD)/ω(SO42-)=2时,SRB颗粒污泥的活性最高,此时系统比产甲烷活性(SMA)为406.2mL/g·d,SO42-的去除率达93.4%,Cu2+的去除效率高达97.1%,且Cu2+的去除率与SO42-的还原率呈正相关关系;而ω(COD)/ω(SO42-)=2～4时,COD去除率稳定在88.8%以上,最大去除率在ω(COD)/ω(SO42-)=2.7处。     

秋季东海水体Eh、pH分布特征及其影响因素

根据2016年9~10月在东海海域38个站位取得的114个水体样品的氧化还原电位（Eh）和酸碱度（pH）现场测试数据,结合同步获得的水文环境要素调查资料,分析了该区秋季Eh和pH的空间分布特征及主要影响因子。结果显示:秋季水体Eh值范围在337.2~588.3 mV,平均值为526.57 mV,空间上呈现不连续分布特征,内陆架为高Eh区,口门外为低Eh区;pH介于7.80~8.24之间,平均为8.04,呈现近岸低、离岸高、表层高、底层低的特点。针对实测Eh与Nernst理论值非耦合现象,认为非热力学平衡状态下海域高Eh值主要受控制于O_2（aq）/H₂O电对浓度,其次受海水层化现象阻滞海-气交换影响,水体有机物矿化分解及Fe（Ⅲ）还原的相对贡献量增加。此外,Eh与温度呈显著负相关,与盐度呈显著正相关,表明物理过程是影响氧化还原反应的重要因素。pH与温度、盐度均呈显著正相关,其中长江冲淡水输入、扩散及混合对近岸pH的影响最为显著。受浊度、叶绿素a浓度及Eh制约,现场浮游植物生产仅对表层pH变化产生作用。基于pH-T、S建立的一元线性回归模型扣除温盐效应,校正后口门外底层低pH的存在可能是水体层化与有机分解相互叠加的结果。

针铁矿对硫酸盐还原菌分解铅矾的影响

铅矾(PbSO_4)是工业生产中释放进入环境的重要含Pb物相,具有潜在的环境风险.采用硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)在厌氧条件下将重金属沉淀形成低溶度积的硫化物是有效固定重金属的方法之一.本研究重点考察了SRB作用下铅矾的转化过程及针铁矿对铅矾分解的影响.结果表明,反应体系中溶液p H和ORP均有所降低;SO_4~(2-)在SRB生长停滞期上升,随后保持稳定;酸可挥发性S浓度随SRB的生长逐渐升高,并最后保持稳定;实验结束后铅矾大部分转化为白铅矿(PbCO_3)和方铅矿.对结果的分析表明,在SRB作用下,铅矾分解转化的机制为:首先转化为白铅矿,其次硫酸盐被还原产生S~(2-),进一步促进铅矾的分解和白铅矿的形成,最后S~(2-)同溶液及新生白铅矿中的Pb~(2+)反应生成溶度积更低的方铅矿;针铁矿的主要作用为:固定溶液中的S~(2-),降低铅矾SRB分解的环境污染风险;通过作为SRB生长的电子受体和降低S~(2-)的生物毒害作用,提高体系中SRB的生物活性.     

水质对UV/H2O2降解17α-乙炔基雌二醇(EE2)的影响

采用UV/H2O2间歇式光氧化反应器,研究了溶液pH值、腐殖酸及水中常见阴离子HCO3-、NO3-、CO32-、Cl-和SO42-对UV/H2O2工艺降解17α-乙炔基雌二醇(EE2)的影响.结果表明,UV/H2O2工艺可以有效地去除水中的EE2,光降解过程符合一级反应动力学模型.双氧水投加量为5mg/L时,在14W低压汞灯照射下,EE2在自来水和蒸馏水中的光降解一级反应速率常数为0.063 0min-1和0.132 4min-1.溶液中的腐殖酸和阴离子HCO3-、NO3-、Cl-、SO42-对EE2的光降解反应有抑制作用,4种阴离子浓度为5 mmol/L时,抑制作用依次为HCO3-＞SO42-＞Cl-＞NO3-,HCO3-可使光降解速率常数降低到50%.自来水中的光降解速率常数低于蒸馏水中的光降解速率常数是水中多种离子影响的结果.     

电絮凝处理含Cu~(2+)废水的影响机制研究

电絮凝是去除废水中重金属离子的有效技术。研究考察了极板类型、电流密度、溶液pH值和阳离子(Ca2+、Mg2+)、阴离子(SO42-、Cl-、NO3-、H2PO2-)对电絮凝除Cu2+的影响,并解析这些影响因素对电絮凝效率的作用机制。结果表明,采用铁板电极在电流密度13 mA/cm2、初始pH=5.0,反应60 min后Cu2+(250 mg/L)去除率可达99%以上。Ca2+、Mg2+对Cu2+的电絮凝去除影响不明显,SO42-、H2PO2-、Cl-对除Cu2+有促进作用,而NO3-的存在会显著降低除Cu2+效果。     

烟道气生物脱硫厌氧段影响因素的研究

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.
