Seasonal variability in source water can lead to challenges for drinking water providers related to operational optimization and process control in treatment facilities. The objective of this study is to investigate seasonal variability of water quality in municipal small water systems (<3000 residents) supplied by surface waters. Residual chlorine and trihalomethanes (THM) were measured over seven years (2003–2009). Comparisons are made within each system over time, as well as between systems according to the type of their treatment technologies. THM concentrations are generally higher in the summer and autumn. The seasonal variability was generally more pronounced in systems using chlorination plus additional treatment. Chloroform, total THM (TTHM) and residual chlorine concentrations were generally lower in systems using chlorination plus additional treatment. Conversely, brominated THM concentrations were higher in systems using additional treatment. Residual chlorine was highest in the winter and lowest in the spring and summer. Seasonal variations were most pronounced for residual chlorine in systems with additional treatment. There was generally poor correlation between THM concentrations and concentrations of residual chlorine. Further study with these data will be beneficial in finding determinants and indicators for both quantity and variability of disinfection byproducts and other water quality parameters. 相似文献

The occurrence, distribution and nature of ambient thiobacilli along with their ability to oxidize different sulphur species under simulated natural and in vitro culture conditions were studied in the polluted and unpolluted sites of the River Ganga.
Thiobacillus thioparus, T. thiooxidans and T. denitrificans were isolated from the river water. the former two occurred in both polluted and unpolluted sites, while T. denitrificans occurred in polluted areas only. the paper pulp mill effluent discharge area contained the highest population of T. thioparus. the sewage drainage area showed relatively higher populations of T. thiooxidans and T. denitrificans.
The present study revealed that only biological oxidation of either thiosulphate or elemental sulphur occurred in the river water. All the thiobacilli screened oxidized thiosulphate, and three-fourths of them oxidized elemental sulphur. Some strains were found to be very good acidifiers. in spite of such acidification by the ambient thiobacilli, the pH of the river water remained alkaline. the specific rates of thiosulphate (0.18 -0.51 μMmolh-1 mg-1 cell) and sulphur (1.3 - 6.2 Normality day-1 mg-1 biomass) oxidations under simulated natural condition were found to be higher in polluted areas when compared with the unpolluted one (sulphur: 0.8 - 1.0 Normality day-1 mg-1).
Further, addition of thiouslphate or elemental sulphur in the river water in simulated in vitro condition resulted in the increase of respective oxidation rates. the variations in the natae of pollutants discharged into the river water influenced the oxidation rate of thiosulphate or sulphur. 相似文献

Biofouling is a stubborn problem in cooling systems where using raw water from lakes, rivers, and sea. The effect of ultrasound and its sequential application with sodium hypochlorite (chlorination) upon marine bivalve Mytilus edulis (blue mussel), a massive fouling organism, has been studied and discussed here. The results obtained from the work carried out have shown that 42 kHz ultrasound is better than 28 kHz in accordance with veliger larvae mortality. The 42 kHz ultrasound has enhanced the mortality rate of veliger larvae than only free-residual chlorination up to 99%. On the other side, the 14-mm size mussel was less resistance than 25-mm size mussel to 42 kHz ultrasonication, among the studied two sizes (14 and 25 mm) of the blue mussel. Lethal time (100%) have decreased by 1–12% used for the sequential action of 42 kHz ultrasonic followed by free-residual chlorination compare with only free-residual chlorination treatment. The obtained results are put forward that the application of ultra-sonication before chlorination can reduce the mussel extinct time up to 12%. Obviously, this result will provide a possible use of ultra-sonication with famous chlorination antifouling treatment and eventually can decrease the chlorine exposure time and dose. It could discharge low chlorine by-products that may provide an environment friendly way. 相似文献

Screening of cost-effective soil amendments is important to develop “in situ” remediation techniques for cadmium (Cd) contaminated soils. In this study, different soil amendments, including red mud, a by-product of the alumina industry, and acid-treated, nano-treated by nano-particle milling, nano and acid-treated red muds, zeolite, corn straw, and rape straw, were evaluated to immobilize Cd in two added levels (2 and 5 mg Cd·kg-1 soil) in a calcareous soil by single and sequential extractions and by cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) pot experiments. Results indicated that cruciferous rape straw significantly decreased the concentrations of water soluble, extractable Cd in soils, and Cd in cucumber plants, and it was more effective than gramineous corn straw. Also, red mud generally decreased the extractability and bioavailability of Cd added to calcareous soils more effectively than zeolite. Furthermore, the efficiency of red mud could be increased by the treatment of nano-particle milling due to the increase in specific surface area of red mud. It is potential to use rape straw and red mud as soil amendments to develop a cost-effective and efficient “in situ” remediation technology for Cd mildly contaminated calcareous soils. 相似文献

Ozone, chlorine and sodium hypochlorite are commonly used as disinfecting agents for drinking water production. The reaction pathways of ozonation and chlorination of o-methoxybenzoic acid in aqueous solution were studied using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results show that less than 1% of o-methoxybenzoic acid remains in reaction. The final major products using ozone oxidation are oxalic and glyoxalic acids. Phenols appear only at insufficient ozone levels. Sodium hypochlorite leads to higher levels of primary products. Molecular chlorine leads to the formation of higher amounts of polychlorinated derivatives. Model experiments allow to propose schemes of o-methoxybenzoic acid transformation under the conditions simulating water treatment processes. 相似文献

Bivalves (Cerastoderma edule and Macoma balthica) which had previously been exposed to Aroclors® 1242, 1254 and 1260 were able to reduce their tissue burdens of chlorobiphenyls with 2 to 5 chlorine atoms in short-term static assay systems. Elimination rates decreased with increasing chlorination and removal of isomers with more than 5 chlorine atoms was not recorded. Position, in addition to the number, of chlorine atoms influenced the persistence of chlorobiphenyls. Isomers with most ortho-substituted chlorine atoms were least persistent. Experiments with single isomers indicated variation in the elimination of low chlorinated isomers between bivalve species. These biological and chemical influences on tissue residues, together with environmental parameters such as temperature and suspended solids, are considered in relation to the use of bivalves as bio-indicators of marine pollution. 相似文献

A study to determine the effects of various concentrations of chlorine on the productivity of entrained marine phytoplankton was carried out at a nuclear power station on northeastern Long Island Sound, USA. Chlorine is a biocide used to control the growth of marine fouling organisms on the walls of many power station cooling systems. Chlorine concentrations considerably below those required to eliminate fouling organisms produced large decreases in the productivity of entrained phytoplankton. Generally, between 0.25 and 0.75 ppm residual chlorine at the cooling water discharge, continuously applied, is required to eliminate fouling organisms. At the highest chlorine concentration tested, 0.4 ppm residual at discharge (addition of chlorine at 1.2 ppm at cooling water intake), there was an 83% decrease in productivity as compared with the productivity at the intake. Productivity measurements were made at 6 other continuously applied chlorine concentrations. At the lowest concentration tested, too low to measure with our analytical method (addition of chlorine at 0.1 ppm at the intake), we measured a production decrease of 79%. Thus, a decrease in chlorination dosage of over an order of magnitude produced essentially no reduction in the damage done to entrained phytoplankton. Application of chlorine intermittently produced somewhat less of a decrease in primary productivity. When there was no chlorine addition during the period of study, there was essentially no effect on productivity. These data indicate that chlorine cannot be used effectively as a biocide for fouling organisms without having adverse effects on entrained phytoplankton.Contribution No. 2838 of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. 相似文献

Experiments were carried out in situ and in the laboratory for 45 and 90 day periods respectively to study the nature and process of biodegradation of leaves/cladodes of 9 species of halophytes with special reference to mangrove vegetation. The leaching rate of chlorophylls a, b, bacteriochlorophylls a, c, d, phaeopigments, organic carbon and micronutrients such as Zinc, Copper. Iron and Manganese were studied at different intervals (10, 30, 90 days) and in varying salinity media (0.30, 16.60, 33.30%°S). The organisms involved in fragmentation, decomposition and biodeterioration have been listed. Total litter production in the wooded mangrove area was 7,457.07 tonnes/year (leaf litter alone 5,834.4 tonnes/year). The mangroves export substantial organic material to the neighbouring estuarine and sea waters and the values were estimated at 261 tonnes C/year and 1,566 tonnes C/year respectively. Only 783 tonnes C/year were utilised and retained for use within the mangrove ecosystem. 相似文献

When bromide/iodide is present in source water, hypobromous acid/hypoiodous acid will be formed with addition of chlorine, chloramine, or other disinfectants. Hypobromous acid/hypoiodous acid undergoes reactions with natural organic matter in source water to form numerous brominated/iodinated disinfection byproducts (DBPs). In this study, tap water samples were collected from eight cities in China. With the aid of electrospray ionization-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry by setting precursor ion scans of m/z 35, m/z 81, and m/z 126.9, whole pictures of polar chlorinated, brominated, and iodinated DBPs in the tap water samples were revealed for the first time. Numerous polar halogenated DBPs were detected, including haloacetic acids, newly identified halogenated phenols, and many new/unknown halogenated compounds. Total organic chlorine, total organic bromine, and total organic iodine were also measured to indicate the total levels of all chlorinated, brominated, and iodinated DBPs in the tap water samples. The total organic chlorine concentrations ranged from 26.8 to 194.0 μg·L–1 as Cl, with an average of 109.2 μg·L–1 as Cl; the total organic bromine concentrations ranged from below detection limit to 113.3 μg·L–1 as Br, with an average of 34.7 μg·L–1 as Br; the total organic iodine concentrations ranged from below detection limit to 16.4 μg·L–1 as I, with an average of 9.1 μg·L–1 as I; the total organic halogen concentrations ranged from 31.3 to 220.4 μg·L–1 as Cl, with an average of 127.2 μg·L–1 as Cl. 相似文献

Uptake and loss of inorganic phosphate by Posidonia oceanica leaf tissue has been studied in in vitro experiments. Experimental data have shown that a steady state of inorganic phosphate uptake (about 40 nmol mg-1 dry wt.) is attained after 48 hours. in particular high accumulation (over 1000-fold the natural level in sea water) and slow loss (biological half-life, 65 days) of inorganic phosphate has been evaluated. Moreover the effect of three different metabolic inhibitors (sodium monovanadate, sodium azide, 2, 4-dinitrophenol) have been tested. Results of this effect and the high degree of inorganic phosphate accumulation in leaf tissue have demonstrated that inorganic phosphate carrier is energy dependent. Furthermore, the inorganic phosphate uptake is probably influenced by bivalent cations (Ca+2, Mg+2) but the mechanism is still uncertain.
Preliminary kinetic study has shown interesting results. in particular, km estimated value (2.8 μmol 1-1) has demonstrated the existence of a relatively high uptake rate (Vmax) at low DIP concentration while the kinetic study of inorganic phosphate loss from leaf tissues has shown a low value of the biological half life (about 60-70 days). This evidence could be significant for the existence of a complex distribution of inorganic phosphate in the leaf tissues. 相似文献

Elemental Analysis of Water and Sediments by External Beam Pixe Part 3: Axios (Vardar) River, Greece
E. Papadopoulou-mourkidou G. A. Mourkides A. A. Katsanos P. K. Kakanis 《Chemistry and Ecology》1986,2(4):335-350
The Axios (Vardar) River originates from the south west part of Yugoslavia, transverses Greece, and discharges into the Thermaikos bay in the north Aegean Sea.
The proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) method with external beam was used for the elemental analysis of water and sediment samples, while measurements of water temperature, dissolved oxygen content, conductivity, pH, and the water flow were made in situ. Water samples were also analysed for total phosphates, nitrates, chlorophyll, and BOD. The data collected for a 16-month period indicate that the Axios River is polluted as far as the metal content is concerned; its primary productivity is low and it is slightly enriched during its course into the Greek territory. 相似文献
