浅谈环境监测中如何加强化验室的管理

环境监测数据是环境监测的重要产品,环境监测中,现场能够监测的项目如溶解氧、水温、pH、电导率、浊度、便携式气柱色谱仪、H2S检测管(试纸)、CODCr快速检测等少数项目外,其它绝大多数的监测项目都需要把样品带回化验室之后再进行监测,因此,化验室建设与化验室管理是做好环境监测质量管理和质量保证,得到真实科学数据的前提和依据。

厌氧处理系统对低浓度PCB含铜废水处理的研究

PCB废水中的铜经化学法单独处理后,其出水较难稳定在0.3mg/L以下。经过试验发现,PCB含铜废水经化学处理后再进入厌氧生化系统后对废水中的铜有一定的处理效果,控制好处理参数可使出水中的铜浓度稳定在0.3mg/L以下,实现铜的达标排放。通过实验,得到了PCB废水除Cu的最佳运行条件:进水铜浓度应控制在2mg/L左右,停留时间最佳控制在10h,pH值维持在7.5。

MBR出水后置化学除磷研究

选用不同的化学除磷药剂及固液分离方式,针对膜生物反应器出水进行后置化学除磷静态试验研究。试验表明,在MBR出水平均浓度为(6.0±0.3)mg/L时,在化学药剂的最佳投药量和混凝时间的条件下,TP可以稳定达到一级A标准,去除率达到95%以上;滤液达一级A标准,氯化铝、氯化铁、聚合硫酸铁、硫酸铝最佳投加量为1.5 mol/mol,硫酸铁、聚合硫酸铝最佳投加量为3.0 mol/mol,最佳混凝时间均为10 min;滤纸和滤膜可以有效分离混凝混合液中的TP,滤液TP可稳定达一级A标准,而微网对混合液中粒径小于D10的颗粒无法分离,致使滤液TP无法达标;PAM投加后,絮体粒径显著增大,固液分离效果也相应增强。微网分离效果较投加前有了明显提高,滤液TP可稳定达到一级B标准。     

Antimony smelting process generating solid wastes and dust：Characterization and leaching behaviors

A large amount of solid waste has been produced by the antimony smelting process in the＂World Capital of Antimony＂, Xikuangshan area in China. This study comprehensively investigated the physical and chemical characteristics of the various solid wastes, as well as the leaching behavior of the solid wastes, which included water-quenched slag,arsenic-alkali residue, desulfurized slag and blast furnace dust. These four types of waste were enriched in a variety of heavy metals and metalloids and more specifically with As and Sb levels up to 8.6 × 104 and 3.16 × 105mg/kg, respectively, in arsenic-alkali residue. For desulfurized slag and water-quenched slag, the leaching concentration of Sb significantly exceeded the acceptable limits during the leaching tests using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure and the synthetic precipitation leaching procedure. In addition, As leaching in arsenic-alkali residue was extraordinarily hazardous, being three orders of magnitude higher than the regulatory level of As. According to the results of the extraction tests, all the tested wastes were classified as hazardous waste.     

Molecular characterization and developmental expression patterns of thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) and their responsiveness to TR agonist and antagonist in Rana nigromaculata

Considering some advantages of Rana nigromaculata as an experimental species, we propose that this species, like Xenopus laevis, could be used to assay thyroid hormone（TH） signaling disrupting actions. To validate the utilizability of R. nigromaculata, we investigated the responsiveness of R. nigromaculata to a TH receptor（TR） agonist（T3） and antagonist（amiodarone） by analyzing expression, based on characterizing TR cDNA and developmental expression patterns. With high levels of identity with the corresponding genes in X. laevis, both TRα and TRβ in R. nigromaculata exhibited roughly similar developmental expression patterns to those of X. laevis, in spite of some species-specific differences. Both TRα and TRβ expression had greater changes in the liver and intestine than in the tail and brain during metamorphosis. T3 exposure for 2 days induced more dramatic increases of TRβ expression in stage 27 than in stage34 tadpoles but not in stage 42 tadpoles, showing that the responsiveness of R. nigromaculata to TH decreased with development and disappeared at the onset of metamorphic climax.Corresponding to greater changes of TRβ expression in the liver and intestine than in the tail and brain during metamorphosis, the liver and intestine had higher responsiveness to exogenous T3 than the tail and brain. Amiodarone inhibited T3-induced TRβ expression. Our results show that R. nigromaculata can be used as a model species for assaying TH signaling disrupting actions by analyzing TRβ expression, and intestine tissues at stage 27 are ideal test materials due to high responsiveness and easy accessibility.     

Efficacy of two chemical coagulants and three different filtration media on removal of Aspergillus flavus from surface water

Aquatic fungi are common in various aqueous environments and play potentially crucial roles in nutrient and carbon cycling as well as interacting with other organisms. Species of Aspergillus are the most common fungi that occur in water. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the efficacy of two coagulants, aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride, used at different concentrations to treat drinking water, in removing Aspergillusflavus, as well as testing three different filtration media： sand, activated carbon, and ceramic granules, for their removal of fungi from water. The results revealed that both coagulants were effective in removing fungi and decreasing the turbidity of drinking water, and turbidity decreased with increasing coagulant concentration. Also, at the highest concentration of the coagulants, A. flavus was decreased by 99.6% in the treated water. Among ceramic granules, activated carbon, and sand used as media for water filtration, the sand and activated carbon filters were more effective in removing A.flavus than ceramic granules while simultaneously decreasing the turbidity levels in the test water samples. Post-treatment total organic carbon （TOC） and total nitrogen （TN） concentrations in the experimental water did not decrease; on the contrary, TN concentrations increased with the increasing dosage of coagulants. The filtration process had no effect in reducing TOC and TN in tested water.
