Highly efficient and selective removal of phosphate from wastewater of sea cucumber aquaculture for microalgae culture using a new adsorption-membrane separation-coordinated strategy

● A new adsorption-membrane separation strategy is used for phosphate removal. ● PVC/Zr-BT shows a selective adsorption ability to low-concentration phosphate. ● Low concentration of P below 0.05 mg/L was achieved in actual wastewater treatment. ● Algal biomass production served as a demonstration of phosphorus recycling. Enhanced phosphorus treatment and recovery has been continuously pursued due to the stringent wastewater discharge regulations and a phosphate supply shortage. Here, a new adsorption-membrane separation strategy was developed for rational reutilization of phosphate from sea cucumber aquaculture wastewater using a Zr-modified-bentonite filled polyvinyl chloride membrane. The as-obtained polyvinyl chloride/Zr-modified-bentonite membrane was highly permeability (940 L/(m²·h)), 1–2 times higher than those reported in other studies, and its adsorption capacity was high (20.6 mg/g) when the phosphate concentration in water was low (5 mg/L). It remained stable under various conditions, such as different pH, initial phosphate concentrations, and the presence of different ions after 24 h of adsorption in a cross-flow filtration system. The total phosphorus and phosphate removal rate reached 91.5% and 95.9%, respectively, after the membrane was used to treat sea cucumber aquaculture wastewater for 24 h and no other water quality parameters had been changed. After the purification process, the utilization of the membrane as a new source of phosphorus in the phosphorus-free f/2 medium experiments indicated the high cultivability of economic microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum FACHB-863 and 1.2 times more chlorophyll a was present than in f/2 medium. The biomass and lipid content of the microalgae in the two different media were similar. The innovative polyvinyl chloride/Zr-modified-bentonite membrane used for phosphorus removal and recovery is an important instrument to establish the groundwork for both the treatment of low concentration phosphate from wastewater as well as the reuse of enriched phosphorus in required fields.

电流密度对BDD电极电化学矿化吲哚的影响与机制

掺硼金刚石膜(BDD)电极电化学氧化法是去除难降解有机污染物的有效手段.与总有机碳(TOC)等的测定相比,气态中间产物的逸出量能够更直观有效地反映有机物的矿化程度与去除效果.本研究以吲哚为代表性污染物,通过对比不同电流密度(10、20和30 m A·cm-2)下BDD电极对吲哚的去除率与矿化率,结合降解过程中碳和氮形态的变化与守恒情况,分析吲哚的降解机制.结果表明,BDD电极对吲哚有良好的去除效果,电流密度为10、20、30 m A·cm-2时,吲哚达到100%去除的时间分别为8、5和4 h;TOC去除率、CO_2产生量均随电流密度的增加而增大,证明矿化率与电流密度成正相关;电解产生的CO_2气体与TOC、无机碳(TIC)构成了碳守恒体系.4~5 h时,体系TOC、TON和CO_2产生量均没有变化,表明电解产生的靛红具有较高的稳定性,此时为中间产物积累阶段;XPS表征进一步证实了中间产物靛红、苯醌等在电极表面的吸附,随着电解时间的延长,这些吸附的中间产物可进一步被降解.本研究从气态产物检测及碳氮形态分析与守恒的角度阐释吲哚矿化过程,对于辅助揭示有机物的电解过程有重要意义.

唐山市近岸海域入海排污口监管对策研究

“十三五”期间,唐山市加大重点流域和海域综合整治力度,入海污染物总量大幅减少,近岸海域优良水质面积比例呈上升趋势,但入海排污口数量仍然较大,陆源污染物通过入海排污口进入海洋,对海洋生态环境质量产生一定影响。唐山市作为渤海入海排污口排查整治试点城市,通过总结排查整治方法和监管措施经验,提出明确排污口管理责任、推进排污口分类整治、加强监管能力建设、开展排污口动态更新等监督管理措施建议,为渤海入海排污口全面排查整治提供可复制、可推广、可借鉴的排污口排查整治经验。     

Chemical characteristics of fine particulate matter emitted from commercial cooking

The chemical characteristics of fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) emitted from commercial cooking were explored in this study. Three typical commercial restaurants in Shanghai, i.e., a Shanghai-style one (SHS), a Sichuan-style one (SCS) and an Italian-style one (ITS), were selected to conduct PM_2.5 sampling. Particulate organic matter (POM) was found to be the predominant contributor to cooking-related PM_2.5 mass in all the tested restaurants, with a proportion of 69.1% to 77.1%. Specifically, 80 trace organic compounds were identified and quantified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), which accounted for 3.8%–6.5% of the total PM_2.5 mass. Among the quantified organic compounds, unsaturated fatty acids had the highest concentration, followed by saturated fatty acids. Comparatively, the impacts of other kinds of organic compounds were much smaller. Oleic acid was the most abundant single species in both SCS and ITS. However, in the case of SHS, linoleic acid was the richest one. ITS produced a much larger mass fraction of most organic species in POM than the two Chinese cooking styles except for monosaccharide anhydrides and sterols. The results of this study could be utilized to explore the contribution of cooking emissions to PM_2.5 pollution and to develop the emission inventory of PM_2.5 from cooking, which could then help the policymakers design efficient treatment measures and control strategies on cooking emissions in the future.     

Effect of effluent organic matter on ozonation of bezafibrate

The influence of three effluent organic matter (EfOM) model compounds, humic acid (HA), bovine serum albumin (BSA), and sodium alginate (AGS), on the ozonation of bezafibrate (BF), a typical pharmaceutical and personal care product (PPCP), was investigated. The results show that ozonation efficiently removed BF from aqueous solution with removal efficiencies>95% within 8 min for all conditions. The reaction rate of BF decreased with increasing model compounds concentrations and the influence was more pronounced for HA and BSA, while less pronounced for AGS. Although BF concentration was significantly reduced, the degree of mineralization achieved was only approximately 11%. The addition of HA and BSA improved the mineralization of the solution, while the influence of AGS was minor. The acute toxicity of BF solution during ozonation was determined using the Luminescent bacteria test, and the toxicity exhibited an initial increase and a successive reduction. An overall decreased acute toxicity was observed with an increase of HA. The presence of BSA increased the formation rate of toxicity intermediates and resulted in inhibition peak forward.

Pd/g-C3N4对水中2,4-二氯酚的催化加氢脱氯研究

分别采用光沉积法和浸渍法制备了载钯石墨相氮化碳催化剂(Pd/g-C3N4-PD和Pd/g-C3N4-IMP),并对其进行了电感耦合等离子体发射光谱(ICP-AES)、X射线衍射(XRD)、透射电镜(TEM)和Zeta电位的表征.结果表明,不同载钯量Pd/g-C3N4-PD的等电点均在pH 2.3左右;Pd/g-C3N4-PD表面Pd粒子分散均匀,且Pd粒径小于Pd/g-C3N4-IMP.分别将Pd/g-C3N4-PD和Pd/g-C3N4-IMP用于2,4-二氯酚的催化加氢脱氯研究,Pd/g-C3N4-PD的催化脱氯效果明显优于Pd/g-C3N4-IMP.低pH值利于2,4-二氯酚的催化加氢脱氯过程,但不利于保持催化剂的稳定性.
