基于神经网络模型的千岛湖清洁水体叶绿素a遥感反演研究

叶绿素a浓度值是水体水质评价的重要指标,研究基于高分一号(GF-1)卫星遥感影像,利用神经网络模型,选用6节点的隐含层设置,构建了千岛湖清洁水体叶绿素a浓度反演模型,对其叶绿素a浓度值时空特征进行分析,并与其他常规反演方法精确度进行比较.研究结果表明,利用神经网络模型对千岛湖清洁水体叶绿素a浓度值进行反演是可行的,且与其他常规方法相比,该模型对于叶绿素a含量低的内陆清洁水体反演有着更高的相关性(R2 = 0.921 8);在空间分布上,千岛湖区域水体叶绿素a浓度整体较低,高叶绿素a浓度区域主要集中易受人类活动干扰的西南及东北区域;年际变化分析表明,千岛湖区域水体叶绿素a浓度稳定,且波动较小,平均叶绿素a浓度值皆维持在1.70～1.75 pg/L之间,清洁水体特征显著.

Combination with catalyzed Fe(0)-carbon microelectrolysis and activated carbon adsorption for advanced reclaimed water treatment: simultaneous nitrate and biorefractory organics removal

A process combining catalyzed Fe(0)-carbon microelectrolysis (IC-ME) with activated carbon (AC) adsorption was developed for advanced reclaimed water treatment. Simultaneous nitrate reduction and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal were achieved, and the effects of composite catalyst (CC) addition, AC addition, and initial pH were investigated. The reaction kinetics and reaction mechanisms were calculated and analyzed. The results showed that CC addition could enhance the reduction rate of nitrate and effectively inhibit the production of ammonia. Moreover, AC addition increased the adsorption capacity of biorefractory organic compounds (BROs) and enhanced the degradation of BRO. The reduction of NO₃^?–N at different pH values was consistently greater than 96.9%, and NH₄⁺–N was suppressed by high pH. The presence of CC ensured the reaction rate of IC-ME at high pH. The reaction kinetics orders and constants were calculated. Catalyzed iron scrap (IS)-AC showed much better nitrate reduction and BRO degradation performances than IS-AC and AC. The IC-ME showed great potential for application to nitrate and BRO reduction in reclaimed water.
