氧气促进纳米零价铁除砷效果及其作用机制

为了探究氧气对纳米零价铁(nZVI)除砷的影响,考察了不同的氧含量(厌氧、低氧、中氧和高氧)条件下nZVI对As(Ⅲ)/As(V)的去除效果,并结合表征结果分析了氧气对nZVI除砷的影响机制。结果表明：氧气存在会显著促进nZVI对As(Ⅲ)/As(Ⅴ)的去除,但不同氧含量对nZVI除砷的促进程度有所不同;随着氧含量的增加,As(Ⅲ)/As(Ⅴ)的去除率呈现先增大后减小然后再增大的趋势。在初始砷浓度为50 mg·L⁻¹、nZVI投加量为200 mg·L⁻¹、O₂/nZVI摩尔比等于0.5时,砷的去除率达到最大,As(Ⅲ)和As(Ⅴ)体系中砷的去除率分别为96.27%和51.75%。固相表征结果表明：氧气对nZVI的氧化程度及除砷效果具有较大的影响,在低氧条件下,nZVI被少量氧化为无定型铁矿物进而提高除砷效果;在中氧条件下,nZVI被氧化为大量的溶解态Fe(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅲ),溶解态铁对砷没有去除效果,从而导致砷的去除率降低;在高氧条件下,nZVI被大量氧化,溶解态Fe(Ⅱ)/Fe(Ⅲ)进一步被氧化形成新的无定型铁矿物,可增强除砷效果。以上结果可为评估不同氧含量条件下纳米零价铁除砷效果以及人为强化纳米零价铁除砷效果提供参考。     

Indirect effect of nutrient accumulation intensified toxicity risk of metals in sediments from urban river network

The levels of metals in sediments of urban river ecosystems are crucial for aquatic environmental health and pollution assessment. Yet little is known about the interaction of nutrients with metals for environmental risks under contamination accumulation. Here, we combined hierarchical cluster, correlation, and principal component analysis with structural equation model (SEM) to investigate the pollution level, source, toxicity risk, and interaction associated with metals and nutrients in the sediments of a river network in a city area of East China. The results showed that the pollution associated with metals in sediments was rated as moderate degree of contamination load and medium-high toxicity risk in the middle and downstream of urban rivers based on contamination factor, pollution load index, and environmental toxicity quotient. The concentration of mercury (Hg) and zinc (Zn) showed a significant correlation with toxic risks, which had more contribution to toxicity than other metals in the study area. Organic nitrogen and organic pollution index showed heavily polluted sediments in south of the study area. Though correlation analysis indicated that nutrients and metals had different input zones from anthropogenic sources in the urban river network, SEM suggested that nutrient accumulation indirectly intensified toxicity risk of metals by 13.6% in sediments. Therefore, we suggested the combined consideration of metal toxicity risk with nutrient accumulation, which may provide a comprehensive understanding to identify sediment pollution.

高分散纳米钙锆复合材料催化臭氧氧化降解间甲酚废水

采用共沉淀法制备了一系列Ca-Zr复合材料,探究了不同的焙烧温度对材料结构和化学性质的影响。使用X射线衍射、扫描电子显微镜及高分辨透射电镜等分析手段表征了所制备样品的物相变化和颗粒形貌特征,以间甲酚为底物,采用臭氧催化氧化方法对所得催化剂的催化性能进行了分析。结果表明：当焙烧温度升高到1 000 ℃以上时,样品晶型以斜方晶系CaZrO₃为主,随着焙烧温度的升高,颗粒更加均匀分散。在催化臭氧氧化降解间甲酚实验中,当焙烧温度为800 ℃时, TOC去除率最高可达到79%。800 ℃焙烧所得的样品由纳米颗粒组成,晶格间距为0.29 nm,说明样品的高暴露晶面为CaZrO₃的(121)晶面;XPS结果证实了样品的高活性可能是由晶格氧和表面羟基基团起重要作用而导致的。这种高效的纳米钙锆复合材料为催化臭氧氧化处理废水奠定了良好的基础。
