Detection of hydroxyl radical in plasma reaction on toluene removal

A new method was introduced to detect the concentration of OH radical in dielectric barrier discharge(DBD)reaction.A film, which was impregnated with salicylic acid,was used to detect OH radical in plasma reaction at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.Salicylic acid reacts with OH radical and produces 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid(2,5-DHBA).Then,a high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was carried out to detect the concentration of 2,5-DHBA.Therefore,OH radical in nonthermal plasma reaction could be...     

2种改性活性炭对甲苯吸附性能的对比研究

利用微波、电炉加热对活性炭进行改性,并测定了改性前后不同种类活性炭对甲苯的吸附性能、表面酸碱官能团含量以及比表面积.结果表明,对于微波改性,随着改性温度升高,活性炭对甲苯的吸附量逐渐增大,表面碱性官能团含量也相应增加,比表面积相应减小.改性温度850℃时活性炭吸附甲苯性能最高,650℃与450℃改性后活性炭吸附甲苯的性能相差不大.电加热改性也具有类似的趋势,但对甲苯的吸附性能总体低于微波改性.扫描电镜表征显示,热改性去除了活性炭孔道内的杂质,使活性炭内部孔道更加通畅,有利于提高吸附甲苯的能力,但温度升高同样存在炭骨架收缩,孔道变窄的弊端.微波加热和电炉加热在原理和热传递方向上的不同.是导致改性结果之间差别的关键问题.     

不同酸碱条件下胶体迁移对含水介质渗透性的影响

文章通过室内土柱实验,研究胶体在迁移过程中对含水介质渗透性的影响以及不同酸碱条件下含水介质渗透性变化的特征,并从胶体的动电性质、粒径分布以及胶体与含水介质的空间排斥效应等方面对含水介质渗透性变化的微观机理进行探讨。研究结果表明,胶体溶液的酸碱度对含水介质的渗透性影响很大,中性和碱性条件下,胶体容易迁移,含水介质渗透性变化小。不同酸碱度条件下胶体粒度、表面动电性质不同:在酸性环境下出水胶体表面zeta电势和淌度为正,由于胶体带正电荷与含水介质表面所带负电荷的电性相反,电荷之间的吸引作用使胶体沉积作用加大,随着胶体聚沉在含水介质表面上渗透性急剧降低;在碱性环境中出水胶体表面zeta电势和淌度为负,电荷间的排斥作用将极大地促进胶体在含水介质中的迁移。     

复合催化剂对气相苯和甲苯的光催化降解研究

研究了在无催化剂、纯锐钛矿、纯金红石以及复合催化剂时苯和甲苯的光催化降解情况,考察了反应物初始浓度以及不同催化剂组成时苯和甲苯的光催化降解. 结果表明,使用锐钛矿催化剂,苯和甲苯降解效率都有很大提高,而使用金红石催化剂,苯和甲苯降解效率提高的幅度不大,这主要与锐钛矿和金红石的晶体结构有关. 在无催化剂和以金红石为催化剂时,甲苯比苯更容易降解;以锐钛矿为催化剂时苯比甲苯更容易降解. 初始浓度对苯和甲苯的光催化降解过程有一定的影响,在低浓度时降解速率较快,而在高浓度时降解速率较慢. 在锐钛矿催化剂中掺入一定量的金红石可提高催化剂的光催化活性. 对于苯,锐钛矿80%、金红石20%的复合催化剂光催化活性最高;而对于甲苯,锐钛矿90%、金红石10%的复合催化剂光催化活性最高.     

Anaerobic biodegradation of benzene series compounds by mixed cultures based on optional electronic acceptors

A series of batch experiments were performed using mixed bacterial consortia to investigate biodegradation performance of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and three xylene isomers （BTEX） under nitrate, sulfate and ferric iron reducing conditions. The results showed that toluene, ethylbenzene, m-xylene and o-xylene could be degraded independently by the mixed cultures coupled to nitrate, sulfate and ferric iron reduction. Under ferric iron reducing conditions the biodegradation of benzene and p-xylene could be occurred only in the presence of other alkylbenzenes. Alkylbenzenes can serve as the primary subs＇rates to stimulate the transformation of benzene and p-xylene under anaerobic conditions. Benzene and p-xylene are more toxic than toluene and ethylbenzene, under the three terminal electron acceptors conditions, the degradation rates decreased with toluene 〉 ethylbenzene 〉 m-xylene 〉 o-xylene〉 benzene 〉 p- xylene. Nitrate was a more favorable electron acceptor compared to sulfate and ferric iron. The ratio between sulfate consumed and the loss of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene was 4.44, 4.51, 4.42, 4.32, 4.37 and 4.23, respectively; the ratio between nitrate consumed and the loss of these substrates was 7.53, 6.24, 6.49, 7.28, 7.81, 7.61, respectively; the ratio between the consumption of ferric iron and the loss of toluene, ethylbenzene, o-xylene, m-xylene was 17.99, 18.04, 18.07, 17.97, respectively.

Simultaneous removal of hydrogen sulfide and toluene in a bioreactor: Performance and characteristics of microbial community

We investigated the correlation between performance and the bacteria community composition by H2S and toluene co-treatment. Operation of the bioreactor was divided into four stages, in which the inlet concentration of toluene and H2S were gradually increased. In Stage I, toluene was the sole target compound with an average removal e ciency of 86.49%. After adding H2S in Stage II, removal e ciency of toluene decreased immediately and recovered gradually to 85.96%. When the inlet concentration of toluene and H2S was increased in Stage III and Stage IV, respectively, the average removal e ciency for toluene increased continuously from 86.31% to 87.24%. The elimination capacities of toluene increased with increasing inlet loading rates of toluene and H2S. Results of the PCR-DGGE analysis showed a turnover growth and decline of the microbial populations in the bioreactor. In Stage I, the dominant toluene-degrading bacteria mainly contained Pseudomonas sp. strain PS+ and Hydrogenophaga sp. In Stage IV, however, the dominant toluene-degrading bacteria was aciduric bacteria (Clostridium populeti). The dominant microbial community in the bioreactor enhanced the elimination capacity of toluene, and adding H2S changed the environment of microbial growth, thus resulted in an evolution of dominant microorganisms. Analyses of microbial community and their activities provides valuable information to e ciently enhance simultaneous removal of toluene and H2S in the bioreactor.     

Co3O4纳米棒的制备及其对气相甲苯的催化氧化

采用低温水热法制备棒状纳米结构的Co3O4,通过加入少量的表面活性剂（聚乙烯吡咯烷酮简称PVP）,在95℃下低温反应,并调控制备过程的老化时间、溶液的pH这2个因素合成了棒状Co3O4纳米结构.X射线衍射（XRD）、透射电镜（TEM）表明制得的是呈立方晶体的Co3O4纳米棒,氢气程序升温还原（H2-TPR）、N2吸附脱附等表征手段表明老化时间和pH会影响Co3 O4纳米棒的尺寸、孔隙结构,进而影响其比表面积大小.采用气相甲苯作为目标物,运用气相色谱（GC）对Co3 O4的催化性能进行研究.结果表明在该实验中,调控老化时间和pH制得的Co3O4纳米棒只影响其低温降解效果,在温度低于260℃,活性最好的是pH=9,老化时间为12 h的催化剂;当温度高于260℃后,其降解曲线基本一致.     

Characterization of volatile organic compounds in the urban area of Beijing from 2000 to 2007

Beijing is one of the most polluted cities in the world. In this study, the long-term and continuous measurements of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the urban area of Beijing, specifically at Beijing 325 m Meteorological Tower, were conducted from 2000 to 2007. The annual record of VOC trends exhibited in two different phases was separated in 2003. Records show that VOC concentrations increased from 2000 to 2003 due to the abrupt increase in vehicle number. Contrarily, since 2003, there had been a decrease in VOCs concentrations as the policy on gasoline and air pollution was implemented. Toluene, benzene, and i-pentane are the chemicals that abound in and are directly related to vehicle activity, such as in vehicle exhaust and gasoline evaporation. Furthermore, records indicate that there had been seasonal variation in VOCs levels in that VOCs level in summer is higher than that in winter. As such, temperature is considered to significantly contribute to VOCs in Beijing. Records also show that VOCs level was high in the morning and during rush hours in the evening. In contrast, VOCs level was low during midday due to photochemical destruction with OH radical and dilution effect. In this study, a particular benzene to toluene ratio range (0.4-1.0) was used as the indicator of air propelled by vehicular exhaust. We also applied the correlation coefficients between BTEX and i-pentane to evaluate evaporation influence to ambient BTEX in the Beijing urban area.
