A/O工艺N_2O的产生与释放的影响因素

采用A/O工艺,在连续运行条件下,以DO、SRT和硝化液回流比(R)为影响因素,对A/O生物脱氮工艺处理模拟城市生活污水过程中N2O的释放进行了研究。实验结果表明,SRT对A/O工艺N2O释放的影响最大,其次是DO,R的影响最小。N2O转化率随着SRT的升高而降低,当SRT从10 d升高到20 d时,总N2O平均转化率从0.319%下降到0.002%。总N2O转化率随着好氧池DO的升高先降低后有所升高,当DO分别为0.6 mg O2/L、1.2 mg O2/L、2.5 mg O2/L时,反应器的总N2O平均转化率分别为0.306%、0.007%和0.013%。R对N2O释放的影响差异不明显,总N2O平均转化率在300%时最低,为0.007%。N2O释放量最低的工艺运行条件组合是SRT为20 d、DO为1.2 mg O2/L、R为300%。     

聚丙烯酸钠作为调理剂对好氧堆肥的保氮影响

实验以污泥、锯末、猪粪为原料,以聚丙烯酸钠(PAAS)为调理剂,利用自制好氧堆肥反应器,研究了PAAS在污泥好氧堆肥中的保氮效果。实验显示,PAAS会提高堆体的pH水平,抑制氨氮的生成,从而减少NH3的挥发源,在PAAS对水溶性氨的吸附作用下,堆肥产品的最终氨氮水平依然得到提高;PAAS对硝化反应有一定的促进作用,添加PAAS的堆体在堆肥周期内的硝氮平均增幅可达到未添加PAAS的空白堆体的4.64倍;添加PAAS的堆体在堆肥周期内全氮平均降幅只有空白堆体的52.24%。PAAS做为堆肥调理剂起到了较为明显的保氮效果。     

厌氧流化床微生物燃料电池及其串并联性能

在高650 mm、有效容积1 280 mL的液固厌氧流化床单室无膜空气阴极微生物燃料电池(MFC)中,研究了燃料电池串并联产电和有机污水处理性能,同时考察了电极面积、活性炭装填体积、温度等因素对产电性能的影响。结果表明,将燃料电池串联,总电压等于3个单级电池的电压之和,约为2 100 mV,最大功率为0.12 mW,而单级电池最大功率为0.05 mW。并联时,输出电压为800 mV,和单级电池输出电压大体相当,而电流为单级电流的2倍。阳极面积增加1倍,产电量增大了30%;电压随活性炭装填体积的增大而增大;温度为40℃时,燃料电池的产电性能最好。     

原铝生产流程温室气体排放主要影响因素的关联度分析

铝是国民经济建设和发展的关键基础材料,然而由其生产过程所产生的大量温室气体排放也逐渐成为政府关注的焦点。本研究计算了我国原铝生产不同年度的生命周期能耗和温室气体排放量,并分析了资源消耗和生产工序能耗等影响因素与温室气体排放的关联性。结果表明,在各年原铝生产的温室气体排放总量中,电力和阳极效应导致的排放所占比重分别为68.5%和7.9%,其他影响因素所占比重均低于6%;与温室气体排放关联度最高的3个影响因素依次是电耗、煤气燃烧和石灰石煅烧,其值分别为0.937、0.899和0.893;在目前铝电耗和阳极效应控制水平提升空间有限的情况下,降低煤气的消耗,提高石灰石的使用效率,是实现原铝生产温室气体减排的有效途径。     

Co-composting of livestock manure with rice straw: Characterization and establishment of maturity evaluation system

Composting is considered to be a primary treatment method for livestock manure and rice straw, and high degree of maturity is a prerequisite for safe land application of the composting products. In this study pilot-scale experiments were carried out to characterize the co-composting process of livestock manure with rice straw, as well as to establish a maturity evaluation index system for the composts obtained. Two pilot composting piles with different feedstocks were conducted for 3 months: (1) swine manure and rice straw (SM–RS); and (2) dairy manure and rice straw (DM–RS). During the composting process, parameters including temperature, moisture, pH, total organic carbon (TOC), organic matter (OM), different forms of nitrogen (total, ammonia and nitrate), and humification index (humic acid and fulvic acid) were monitored in addition to germination index (GI), plant growth index (PGI) and Solvita maturity index. OM loss followed the first-order kinetic model in both piles, and a slightly faster OM mineralization was achieved in the SM–RS pile. Also, the SM–RS pile exhibited slightly better performance than the DM–RS according to the evolutions of temperature, OM degradation, GI and PGI. The C/N ratio, GI and PGI could be included in the maturity evaluation index system in which GI > 120% and PGI > 1.00 signal mature co-composts.

长江徐六泾黑碳的季节变化及环境意义

2009年8月~2010年7月，每月在长江口徐六泾对水中悬浮颗粒物进行了采样，分析悬浮颗粒物中有机碳及黑碳含量，研究它们的季节变化特征，并计算出相应的输送通量。结果显示，水体中颗粒有机碳（Particulate organic carbon，POC）含量在034~092 mg/L，黑碳（Black carbon，BC）含量在0035~0096 mg/L；POC含量与水中总悬浮颗粒物（Total suspended material，TSM）含量有显著的正相关，但POC％随着TSM浓度的增加而减小；此外，水体中BC含量与人类的燃烧活动密切相关。观测期间长江的POC通量为234×106 t/yr，BC通量为277×105 t/yr，且BC通量占到颗粒有机碳通量的129%     

Using ecological memory as an indicator to monitor the ecological restoration of four forest plantations in subtropical China

A large area of plantations has been established worldwide and especially in China. Evaluating the restoration status of these plantations is essential for their long-term management. Based on our previous work, we used an ecological memory (EM) approach to evaluate four 26-year-old plantations that represent four common kinds of plantations in subtropical China, i.e., mixed broad-leaved plantation (MBP), mixed coniferous plantation (MCP), eucalyptus plantation (EP), and mixed legume plantation (MLP). Comparing them with the regional climax community, i.e., monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forest (BF), all four plantations accumulated nearly the same pattern of EM during succession. EM was >50 % for soil minerals, light conditions, soil age, soil animals, and soil microbes. EM was about 25 % for soil pollen and 10 % for birds, soil seed bank, and plant species. The total EM value of the four plantations ranged from 50.96 to 52.54, which indicated that all four plantations were in the regional, natural trajectory of succession and between the early and medium successional stages. The results indicated that natural succession processes are unlikely to be accelerated by planting late-stage tree species without sufficient EM. The results also demonstrated that all four plantations were in positive successional trajectories, and the positive succession dynamics were greater in the MLP and MCP. We suggest that the entire natural succession trajectory be used to evaluate the restoration of a site and that the ultimate restoration target be divided into several milestones along the reference trajectory to monitor progress. Forest restoration may be accelerated by starting with a minimum dynamic unit supporting sufficient EM.     

Economic analysis of effects on cultivated land following China's entry to the WTO

Inspired by the phenomenon of heavy reduction in the area of cultivated land following the entry of Korea and Japan to the WTO,countries with a large population and inadequate amount of cultivated land similar to China,this paper raises the problem of the potential effects on cultivated land in China following its entry to the WTO.The paper attempts analysis,using economic principles,of the effects of Chinese WTO membership on cultivated land from four aspects;tariff concessions,quota increment,comparative advantage,and the substitution principle.And the conclusion is mat China's entry to WTO may lead to a reduction in cultivated land.Finally,some countermeasures are proposed to resolve the problem.
