膜吸收法净化低浓度甲醛和氨气

基于膜吸收技术自制双层平板式膜吸收器，搭建净化低浓度甲醛和氨气污染模拟系统，考察不同膜结构参数、进气流量、吸收剂流量等因素对其净化效果的影响。结果表明，聚偏氟乙烯PVDF对低浓度甲醛和氨气的净化效率高于聚四氟乙烯PTFE。对同一材质膜，随着膜孔隙率的增大，甲醛和氨气的净化率呈上升趋势。随着进气流量的增加。甲醛和氨气的净化效率降低；而吸收剂流量对其净化效率影响不大。对于所有实验条件，平均膜孔径为0．22μm的PVDF4#在进气流量ug=120L／h时，甲醛和氨气的净化效率最高，分别达94．7％和96．3％。     

Zn / Al 双金属氧化物对水中硫酸根离子的吸附性能简

研究了用Zn/Al水滑石制得的Zn/Al双金属氧化物（Zn/Al-300）吸附剂对水中硫酸根离子的吸附，考查了吸附剂投加量、初始pH等因素对硫酸根离子吸附的影响。结果表明，Zn/Al-300对水中硫酸根离子的吸附符合Langmuir吸附等温方程，理论最大吸附量为62.5 mg/g。运用动力学方程进行拟合，吸附过程符合准二级动力学方程；溶液的pH影响吸附剂对硫酸根的吸附，在pH=5.5时硫酸根的去除率最大；X射线衍射结果显示，水滑石经过焙烧后丧失了原有的构形，并在吸附硫酸根离子后重新恢复水滑石的部分层状结构。吸附机制主要为Zn/Al-300从溶液中获取阴离子以重建水滑石的晶体结构，即“记忆效应”。对吸附后的双金属氧化循环应用4此后，吸附容量几乎不变，说明双金属氧化物具有可循环型。通过将Zn/Al-300与其他几种吸附剂的经济性分析，表明此吸附剂在使用过程中具有一定优势。

Carbon dioxide and methane emissions from the scale model of open dairy lots

To investigate the impacts of major factors on carbon loss via gaseous emissions, carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄) emissions from the ground of open dairy lots were tested by a scale model experiment at various air temperatures (15, 25, and 35 °C), surface velocities (0.4, 0.7, 1.0, and 1.2 m sec^?1), and floor types (unpaved soil floor and brick-paved floor) in controlled laboratory conditions using the wind tunnel method. Generally, CO₂ and CH₄ emissions were significantly enhanced with the increase of air temperature and velocity (P < 0.05). Floor type had different effects on the CO₂ and CH₄ emissions, which were also affected by air temperature and soil characteristics of the floor. Although different patterns were observed on CH₄ emission from the soil and brick floors at different air temperature-velocity combinations, statistical analysis showed no significant difference in CH₄ emissions from different floors (P > 0.05). For CO₂, similar emissions were found from the soil and brick floors at 15 and 25 °C, whereas higher rates were detected from the brick floor at 35 °C (P < 0.05). Results showed that CH₄ emission from the scale model was exponentially related to CO₂ flux, which might be helpful in CH₄ emission estimation from manure management.

Implications: Gaseous emissions from the open lots are largely dependent on outdoor climate, floor systems, and management practices, which are quite different from those indoors. This study assessed the effects of floor types and air velocities on CO₂ and CH₄ emissions from the open dairy lots at various temperatures by a wind tunnel. It provided some valuable information for decision-making and further studies on gaseous emissions from open lots.

Effects of Inorganic Antiseptic on the Properties of Zein-Based Active Films

Zein, one of corn processing byproducts, has excellent film-forming ability. However, zein does not have intrinsic antibacterial or antioxidant activity which limits its direct applicability as active food packaging material. In the present study, the rod-shaped micro-sized ZnO crystals were incorporated into zein films to construct zein-based active films as active packaging material with antibacterial property. The morphologies, structural analysis and sizes of ZnO crystals were analyzed by field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. Prepared zein films were evaluated for ZnO loading and distribution. Furthermore, antibacterial activities on Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria were tested by using the disc diffusion method. Lastly, the stability of zein-based active films under the different storage temperature and humidity was investigated. The results showed that zein based-active films had well mechanical properties, stability and antibacterial activities, which were related to the sizes of ZnO crystals in films.
