Optimal Absorbent Evaluation for the CO2 Separating Process by Absorption Loading,Desorption Efficiency,Cost, and Environmental Tolerance

The CO₂ absorption capacities of potassium glycinate, potassium sarcosinate (choline, proline), mono-ethanolamine (MEA), and tri-ethanolamine were evaluated to find the optimal absorbent for separating CO₂ from gaseous products by a CO₂ purification process. The absorption loading, desorption efficiency, cost, and environmental tolerance were assessed to select the optimal absorbent. MEA was found to be the optimum absorbent for separating the CO₂ and H₂ mixture in gaseous product. The maximum absorption loading rate was 0.77 mol CO₂ per mol MEA at temperature of 20°C and absorbent concentration of 2.5 mol/L, whereas desorption efficiency was 90% by heating for 3 h at 130°C. MEA was found to be an optimal absorbent for the purification process of CO₂ during gaseous production.

Distribution of elements in needles of Pinus massoniana (Lamb.) was uneven and affected by needle age

Macronutrients (P, S, K, Na, Mg, Ca), heavy metals (Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, Cd,) and Al concentrations as well as values of Ca/Al in the tip, middle and base sections, and sheaths of current year and previous year needles of Pinus massoniana from Xiqiao Mountain were analyzed and the distribution patterns of those elements were compared. The results indicated that many elements were unevenly distributed among the different components of needles. Possible deficiency of P, K, Ca, Mn and Al toxicity occurred in needles under air pollution. Heavy metals may threaten the health of Masson pine. Needle sheaths were good places to look for particulate pollutants, in this case including Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr, Cd and Al.

序批式反应器生物强化处理苯酚废水的研究

将4株高效苯酚分解菌湿菌体分3批投加于序批式反应器(SBR),对活性污泥进行生物强化试验,分析活性污泥状态与性能变化,测定生物强化后对苯酚的降解能力.结果表明,随着生物强化过程的进行,沉降性能改善,污泥颗粒化趋势明显;生物强化后,活性污泥对苯酚降解能力、降解速率及对苯酚的耐受性明显提高:苯酚质量浓度为730～960mg/L时,苯酚完全降解时间可由正常的6h缩短至2h;6h内可完全降解苯酚的质量浓度由原来的880mg/L提高到2080mg/L,处理能力提高了1.36倍;当进水苯酚质量浓度增加到2400mg/L时,6h内污泥对苯酚的降解率仍达到60.1%.
