Effect of AlCl3 concentration on nanoparticle removal by coagulation

In recent years, engineered nanoparticles, as a new group of contaminants emerging in natural water, have been given more attention. In order to understand the behavior of nanoparticles in the conventional water treatment process, three kinds of nanoparticle suspensions, namely multi-walled carbon nanotube-humic acid (MWCNT-HA), multi-walled carbon nanotube-N,N-dimethylformamide (MWCNT-DMF) and nanoTiO₂-humic acid (TiO₂-HA) were employed to investigate their coagulation removal efficiencies with varying aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) concentrations. Results showed that nanoparticle removal rate curves had a reverse “U” shape with increasing concentration of aluminum ion (Al^3 +). More than 90% of nanoparticles could be effectively removed by an appropriate Al^3 + concentration. At higher Al^3 + concentration, nanoparticles would be restabilized. The hydrodynamic particle size of nanoparticles was found to be the crucial factor influencing the effective concentration range (ECR) of Al^3 + for nanoparticle removal. The ECR of Al^3 + followed the order MWCNT-DMF > MWCNT-HA > TiO₂-HA, which is the reverse of the nanoparticle size trend. At a given concentration, smaller nanoparticles carry more surface charges, and thus consume more coagulants for neutralization. Therefore, over-saturation occurred at relatively higher Al^3 + concentration and a wider ECR was obtained. The ECR became broader with increasing pH because of the smaller hydrodynamic particle size of nanoparticles at higher pH values. A high ionic strength of NaCl can also widen the ECR due to its strong potential to compress the electric double layer. It was concluded that it is important to adjust the dose of Al^3 + in the ECR for nanoparticle removal in water treatment.     

基于两种样品前处理方法对比研究小冬克玛底冰川雪坑中痕量元素

通过对唐古拉山小冬克玛底冰川雪坑中非季风季节沉积的雪样分别进行酸化处理和消解处理后,利用高分辨扇形磁场等离子体质谱仪(ICP-SFMS)测试了样品中19种痕量元素(Ba、U、Sr、Rb、Tl、Mo、Cs、Pb、Sb、V、Cr、Mn、Fe、Co、Al、Cu、Ti、Li、As)的酸化浓度和总浓度.研究结果表明,痕量元素浓度的变化范围较大,元素Al的最大/最小浓度比为326(酸化浓度)和465(总浓度),元素Pb相应比值为27和48.雪冰中痕量元素的总浓度一般大于该元素的酸化浓度,其中,元素Pb、Fe、Sb、Ba、Al、Ti的酸化浓度占总浓度的平均比值分别为91%、76%、60%、52%、33%和21%.一般地,样品中不溶微粒含量越大,酸化浓度占总浓度的比值越小;不溶微粒含量越小,则相反.对痕量元素的富集系数(EF)分析表明,各元素总浓度EF均值小于酸化浓度EF均值,揭示了用酸化浓度计算EF存在对痕量元素人为来源影响的高估.人类排放是小冬克玛底冰川中痕量元素的来源之一,对于元素Mo和Sb,人类排放估计是主要来源.利用后向轨迹模型模拟出小冬克玛底冰川雪冰中痕量元素在非季风季节主要来源于青藏高原西部及中亚中东地区.     

Critical engagement,activist/academic subjectivities and organic agri-food research in Uganda

This paper provides a reflexive account of engagement in activist/academic organic agri-food research in Uganda. I argue that critical engagement across the third space – between and across activist and academic subjectivities – enables a re-thinking of the subjectivities of activist/academics and research participants and the place of research in social change and theory building. I demonstrate some of the multiple ways of enacting activism within the academy by reflecting on my critical engagement with the Katuulo Organic Pineapple Cooperative in Uganda, whose members grow certified organic pineapples for sale on the international market. While there is a growing interest in critical activist research, its agenda is also constrained by the corporatist turn in universities. As such, the subjectivities, methods and theory building of activist/academics in agri-food (and other) research represents part of the resistance to normalised ways of doing and being in contemporary neo-liberal universities.     

基于小波变换与传统时间序列模型的臭氧浓度多步预测

采用最大重叠小波分解与重构方法,将影响O3小时浓度的不同时间尺度的物化过程分离出来,以提高序列的光滑性.同时,选择合适的传统时间序列模型(如ARIMA模型等)来描述不同过程的序列特征,并分别拟合预报.最后,在建模中引入24 h季节项,以实现提前24 h-次性预测未来1d的O3逐时浓度.结果表明,预报的平均相对误差为12.92％,平均绝对误差和均方根误差分别为10.04 μ.g·m-3和13.98μg·m-3,预报值与实测值的相关系数和匹配指数分别为0.96和0.98.随着预测期的延长,预报误差仍处于可接受范围内.该方法同样适用于每日最大O3小时浓度预报,研究结果为发布天气预报式的空气质量预报提供了新思路,便于公众规划出行并减少大气污染暴露.     

锌镉还原法的海水硝酸盐浓度

按照《海洋调查规范》(1991)中锌镉还原法 ,用三对基体来配制NO3 -标准溶液 :NaCl水 (31gNaCl加纯水至 1L)与无氮东海海水ECS、《海洋调查规范》(1991)人工海水SAS(NaCl水加MgSO4)与ECS和Strick land Parsons(1972 )人工海水SP72 (SAS加NaHCO3 )与ECS。经测定 ,且忽略标准曲线方程的截距 ,纯水与ECS的NO3 -还原率比为 0 .2 6 6 ,NaCl水与ECS的比为 0 .70 6 ,SAS与ECS的比为 0 .90 1,而SP72与ECS的比则为1.0 0 9。显然 ,用ECS和等价的SP72定出的值最接近天然海水中NO3 -的浓度。由《海洋调查规范》(1991)SAS定出的浓度须乘上 0 .90 1～ 0 .95 6后才接近海水中NO3 -浓度。

污泥浓度对双重后置反硝化工艺脱氮除磷的影响

利用城市实际污水考察了ρ(MLSS)在2 400、3 350、4 300和5 250 mg/L 4种工况下SBR反应器(厌氧/好氧/缺氧/再好氧/沉淀/排水/预缺氧运行模式)的脱氮除磷效果,并分析了反应器单个周期内有机物、氮和磷的转化过程及污泥产量. 结果表明:ρ(MLSS)由2 400 mg/L升至5 250 mg/L时,系统TN去除率由52.5%升至66.6%;后续缺氧及预缺氧工序的脱氮比例(该工序TN去除量占系统TN总去除量的比例)由12.7%增至23.1%;ρ(MLSS)为4 300 mg/L时系统TP去除率(75.6%)达到最大. 后续缺氧及预缺氧工序中,ρ(MLSS)与内源反硝化速率呈正相关(R2=0.703 7);提高ρ(MLSS)可使PAOs(聚磷菌)在下一个周期内获得更多的碳源,使厌氧释磷量由1.62 mg/L升至9.10 mg/L,但PAOs吸磷动力会减弱,对除磷不利. 在后置反硝化、污泥衰减、能量解偶联等减量机制共同作用下,ρ(MLSS)为4 300 mg/L时系统污泥减量可提高24.4%. 从脱氮除磷及污泥减量效果综合考虑,ρ(MLSS)是双重后置反硝化工艺重要的控制参数,在该研究条件下控制在4 300 mg/L最优.      

有效磷含量对硝酸铵溶液热安全性的影响

为了了解硝酸磷肥生产过程中,硝酸铵溶液中加入磷酸一铵的安全性,通过自制实验装置,研究了有效磷含量对质量分数为85%的硝酸铵溶液热分解的影响。结果表明,质量分数为85%的硝酸铵和磷酸一铵混合溶液的临界爆炸温度高于纯质量分数为85%的硝酸铵溶液,稳定性更好;磷酸一铵抑制硝酸铵的热分解,随着有效磷含量的增加,硝酸铵混合溶液临界爆炸温度升高;升温速率对硝酸铵混合溶液的临界爆炸温度影响很大,随着升温速率由2℃/min升高到3℃/min,质量分数为85%的硝酸铵混合溶液的临界爆炸温度升高,不易发生爆炸,安全性更好。研究结果对硝酸磷肥的生产安全有一定的指导意义。
