两种膜生物反应器处理养猪沼液的比较研究

养猪沼液有机物和氨氮浓度高,碳氮比低,生化处理难度大.本文对比研究了生物膜式膜生物反应器(biofilm membrane bioreactor,BF-MBR)和传统膜生物反应器(MBR)在进水化学需氧量(COD)和总氮(TN)比值分别为1.0±0.2和2.3±0.4条件下对养猪沼液的处理效果.结果表明,养猪沼液COD/TN为1.0±0.2时,两套反应器的出水水质都较差且波动较大.进水COD/TN比值提高到2.3±0.4后,两套系统的出水水质和运行稳定性均得到大幅度提高;BF-MBR对COD和氨氮的去除率分别为92.3%±2.4%和97.5%±4.1%,略优于MBR的91.9%±1.5%和91.2%±14.0%.与MBR相比,BF-MBR因生物膜的影响,对总氮和总磷去除率分别达36.7%±19.5%和54.0%±18.9%,显著高于MBR去除率19.2%±12.4%和29.0%±18.1%;BF-MBR系统比MBR减少了近40%的外加碱耗.BF-MBR比MBR有更好的污染物去除效果且消耗更少的外加碱剂,因此对处理沼液的适用性更好.     

Numerical analysis of non-constant pure rate of time preference: A model of climate policy

When current decisions affect welfare in the far-distant future, as with climate change, the use of a declining pure rate of time preference (PRTP) provides potentially important modeling flexibility. The difficulty of analyzing models with non-constant PRTP limits their application. We describe and provide software (available online) to implement an algorithm to numerically obtain a Markov perfect equilibrium for an optimal control problem with non-constant PRTP. We apply this software to a simplified version of the numerical climate change model used in the Stern Review. For our calibration, the policy recommendations are less sensitive to the PRTP than widely believed.
