Enhancement of thermophilic anaerobic digestion of thickened waste activated sludge by combined microwave and alkaline pretreatment

Pretreatment of thickened waste activated sludge (TWAS) by combined microwave and alkaline pretreatment (MAP) was studied to improve thermophilic anaerobic digestion efficiency. Uniform design was applied to determine the combination of target temperature (110–210°C), microwave holding time (1–51 min), and NaOH dose (0–2.5 g NaOH/g suspended solids (SS)) in terms of their effect on volatile suspended solids (VSS) solubilization. Maximum solubilization ratio (85.1%) of VSS was observed at 210°C with 0.2 g-NaOH/g-SS and 35 min holding time. The effects of 12 different pretreatment methods were investigated in 28 thermophilic batch reactors by monitoring cumulative methane production (CMP). Improvements in methane production in the TWAS were directly related to the microwave and alkaline pretreatment of the sludge. The highest CMP was a 27% improvement over the control. In spite of the increase in soluble chemical oxygen demand concentration and the decrease in dewaterability of digested sludge, a semi-continuous thermophilic reactor fed with pretreated TWAS without neutralization (at 170°C with 1 min holding time and 0.05 g NaOH/g SS) was stable and functioned well, with volatile solid (VS) and total chemical oxygen demand (TCOD) reductions of 28% and 18%, respectively, which were higher than those of the control system. Additionally, methane yields (L@STP/g-CODadded, at standard temperature and pressure (STP) conditions of 0°C and 101.325 kPa) and (L@STP/g VSadded) increased by 17% and 13%, respectively, compared to the control reactor.

高温(70℃)玉米秸秆水解液产氢行为及群落结构

考察了高温条件下(70℃)牛粪堆肥、土壤、厌氧污泥、腐烂秸秆种接种物利用玉米秸秆水解液的产氢行为。结果表明:牛粪堆肥接种时达到最大的产气量(1355.7mL/L)和氢气产量(608.4mL/L),随后依次为腐烂秸秆、厌氧污泥和土壤。修改的Gompertz方程可以较好描述产氢量随时间变化趋势(R2>0.99)。牛粪堆肥接种时达到最大的产氢潜力(676.0mL/L),而土壤接种时的迟滞时间最小(9.8h)。DGGE图谱显示:不同接种物对应不同的微生物群落结构。Bacillus thermozeamaize,Enterobacter sp.JDM-19和Thermoanaerobacterium polysaccharolyticum strain,KMTHCJT和可能分别是牛粪堆肥,厌氧污泥和腐烂秸秆接种条件下的关键产氢微生物。     

曝气生物滤池的短程硝化特性

通过控制进水pH值实现曝气生物滤池的短程硝化。工艺运行结果表明,对于进水pH值为8.22~8.57,NH4+-N平均容积负荷为0.5 kg/(m3.d),水温为17.5~20.2℃,曝气生物滤池溶解氧质量浓度平均为4.5 mg/L的条件下能够同步实现95%的NH4+-N去除率和80%的NO2--N积累率。通过分析FA和FNA沿滤池高度的变化特征,发现滤池底部(0~5 cm)区域短程硝化反应主要由FA控制,中部(5~15 cm)区域是由FA和FNA共同掌控;而上部区域(15~50 cm)则是由FNA控制,FNA沿滤池高度的快速增加是确保工艺实现稳定亚硝酸盐积累的重要原因。

Grass carp status in the United States: A review

Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.) were introduced into the United States in 1963 as potential biological control agents for nuisance aquatic weeds. Since that time an oftentimes bitter controversy has raged over its effects on sportfishing, and its possible natural reproduction and naturalization in North America. This review considers the history, ecology, and present status of grass carp in the United States in light of the voluminous scientific research conducted since its importation. Particular attention is given to the role of grass carp in the fisheries management plans of Arkansas. Recent development of a sterile, triploid grass carp hybrid may lead to widespread use of grass carp to control nuisance aquatic weeds in culturally eutrophicated waters of the United States.

Novel Polymeric Materials from Biological Oils

A variety of novel polymeric materials ranging from elastomers to tough, rigid plastics have been prepared by the cationic copolymerization of regular soybean oil, low-saturation soybean oil, or conjugated low-saturation soybean oil with various alkene commonomers. Using appropriate compositions and reaction conditions, 70–100% of the soybean oil is covalently incorporated into the cross-linked polymer networks, contributing significantly to cross-linking during copolymerization. The resulting thermosets exhibit thermophysical and mechanical properties that are competitive with those of their petroleum-based counterparts. In addition, good damping and shape memory properties have been obtained by controlling the degree of cross-linking and the rigidity of the polymer backbone. New materials with similar characteristics have also been produced from other biological oils, including tung, and fish oils using the same technique. The new, more valuable properties of these bioplastics suggest numerous promising applications of these novel polymeric materials.
