Introduction and aims
A review was undertaken on the occurrence, toxicity, and degradation of triclosan (TCS; 5-chloro-2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenol) in the environment. TCS is a synthetic, broad-spectrum antibacterial agent incorporated in a wide variety of household and personal care products such as hand soap, toothpaste, and deodorants but also in textile fibers used in a range of other consumer products (e.g., toys, undergarments and cutting boards among other things). 相似文献42.
Influence of organic matter on arsenic removal by continuous flow electrocoagulation treatment of weakly mineralized waters 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The aim of this study is to evaluate and understand the electrocoagulation/flocculation (ECF) process to remove arsenic from both model and natural waters with low mineral content and to compare its performances to the coagulation/flocculation (CF) process already optimized. Experiments were thus conducted with iron electrodes in the same specific treatment conditions (4≤current density (mAcm(-2))≤33) to study the influence of organic matter on arsenic removal in conditions avoiding the oxidation step usually required to improve As(III) removal. The process performance was evaluated by combining quantification of arsenic residual concentrations and speciation and dissolved organic carbon residual concentrations with zeta potential and turbidity measurements. When compared to CF, ECF presented several disadvantages: (i) lower As(V) removal yield because of the ferrous iron dissolved from the anode and the subsequent negative zeta potential of the colloidal suspension, (ii) higher residual DOC concentrations because of the fractionation of high molecular weight compounds during the treatment leading to compounds less prone to coagulate and (iii) higher residual turbidities because of the charge neutralization mechanisms involved. However, during this process, As(III) was oxidized to As(V) improving considerably its removal whatever the matrix conditions. ECF thus allowed to improve As(III) removal without applying an oxidation step that could potentially lead to the formation of toxic oxidation by-products. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of substrate roughness on load selection in the seed-harvester ant Messor barbarus. Ants were forced to travel either on sand or on gravel to reach a seed patch containing seed fragments of different weights. We hypothesized that foragers travelling on a rough substrate could either increase their load as a result of the increased distance travelled (due to a more sinuous path and an increase in the vertical component of the path) or decrease their load because of the anticipated difficulty of moving with a heavy load on a rough surface. Our results were consistent with neither of these hypotheses: Load selection by ants did not depend on the roughness of the substrate encountered during their outbound trip. The main effect of substrate roughness was to slow down the progression of the ants and increase their probability of dropping or transferring heavy seeds on their way back to the nest, thus resulting in an overall reduction of the rate of seed return to the nest. 相似文献

Social harmony often relies on ritualised dominance interactions between society members, particularly in queenless ant societies,
where colony members do not have developmentally predetermined castes but have to fight for their status in the reproductive
and work hierarchy. In this behavioural plasticity, their social organisation resembles more that of vertebrates than that
of the “classic” social insects. The present study investigates the neurochemistry of the queenless ant species, Streblognathus peetersi, to better understand the neural basis of the high behavioural plasticity observed in queenless ants. We report measurements
of brain biogenic amines [octopamine, dopamine, serotonin] of S. peetersi ants; they reveal a new set of biogenic amine influences on social organisation with no common features with other “primitively
organised societies” (bumble bees) and some common features with “highly eusocial” species (honey bees). This similarity to
honey bees may either confirm the heritage of queenless species from their probably highly eusocial ancestors or highlight
independent patterns of biogenic amine influences on the social organisation of these highly derived species. 相似文献

This work focuses on assessing the impact of two types of waste pretreatment: addition of bottom ashes and aerobic pretreatment on both the onset and kinetics of methanogenesis and the evolution of different parameters in the leachate. It also studies the correlation between methane production and the different parameters measured in the leachate produced. A total of six 68-L pilots were thus used with fresh municipal solid waste (MSW) shredded to a 40-mm size. After 14months of landfilling, the control has produced less than 10NLkg(-1)DM, which corresponds to around 7% of its biochemical methane potential (BMP). Nevertheless, on one hand for aerobically pretreated waste, the lag phase before the onset of methanogenesis is significantly reduced to 0.9month compared to more than 1year for the control. In addition to that, on average 110NLkg(-1)DM (90% of the BMP) is produced within around 6.5months. On the other hand, the waste with added bottom ash shows a slight improvement of the lag phase over the control for one of the duplicate: 6.1months of lag phase. At this stage, on average of 26NLkg(-1)DM waste are detected (22% of the BMP) no final conclusion concerning the impact of bottom ashes could be made. The data obtained for the leachate parameters agrees with the observations on methane production. Statistical correlation study shows that the two components of the corrected PCA interpret 76% of the variability of the data: SUVA (specific UV absorbance at 254nm) and HPI(*) (% of hydrophilic compounds) are identified as interesting parameters for following up the biodegradation in landfill conditions. 相似文献

Wet air oxidation (WAO) and catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of slaughtered animal byproducts (ABPs) were investigated. Two
step experiment was carried out consisting of a non-catalysedWAO run followed by a CWAO run at 170–275°C , 20 MPa, and reaction
time 180 min. TheWAO (1st step) of sample (5 g/L total organic carbon (TOC)) yielded (82.0 4)% TOC removal and (78.4 13.2)%
conversion of the initial organic-N into NH4
+-N. Four metal catalysts (Pd, Pt, Rh, Ru) supported over alumina have been tested in
catalytic WAO (2nd step) at elevated pH to enhance ammonia conversion and organic matter removal, particularly acetic acid. It was
found that the catalysts Ru, Pt, and Rh had significant e ects on the TOC removal (95.1%, 99.5% and 96.7%, respectively) and on
the abatement of ammonia (93.4%, 96.7% and 96.3%, respectively) with high nitrogen selectivity. The catalyst Pd was found to have
the less activity while Pt had the best performance. The X-Ray di raction analysis showed that the support of catalyst was not stable
under the experimental conditions since it reacted with phosphate present in solution. Nitrite and nitrate ions were monitored during
the oxidation reaction and it was concluded that CWAO of ammonia in real waste treatment framework was in good agreement with
the results obtained from the literature for ideal solutions of ammonia. 相似文献
