过氧化钙联合絮凝剂调理污泥改善脱水性能

污泥经过CaO_2联合絮凝剂处理后,其脱水性能得到明显改善。采用改变初始pH、调理剂投加量以及改变调理剂投加顺序的方法,调理污泥改善脱水性能;采用Zeta电位、激光粒度、胞外聚合物及结合水分析对调理前后的污泥进行了表征;研究了调理剂不同投加量对污泥脱水性能的影响;探讨了不同调理剂下污泥脱水机理。结果表明:CaO_2联合絮凝剂(微生物絮凝剂或壳聚糖)明显改善污泥脱水降低污泥含水率;CaO_2联合絮凝剂调理后的污泥粒径和Zeta电位均有所减小,并且CaO_2在絮凝剂之前投加,降低幅度更加明显;先投加CaO_2,污泥层状结构会在氧化作用下发生裂解破碎,形成不规则的小絮体,使污泥破坏得更彻底;在絮凝剂之前投加CaO_2,污泥经过处理后的可溶性糖类和可溶性蛋白质的浓度增加,而结合的糖类、蛋白质及结合水的变化量却减小。因此,CaO_2联合絮凝剂可以优化污泥脱水性能,且CaO_2与絮凝剂的投加顺序对于污泥脱水有显著影响。     

炭材料调理改善活性污泥脱水性能的影响机制

活性污泥中的胞外聚合物EPS含黏性蛋白类物质并高度亲水,调控污泥中溶解性EPS和溶解性蛋白类物质是改善污泥脱水的有效途径。通过使用不同炭材料调理污泥的方法来观察污泥脱水性能的变化,深入解析污泥絮体及EPS含量和组分的变化特征。结果表明:炭材料调理污泥可以改善其脱水性,且炭材料吸附容量越大对污泥脱水性改善效果越好;不同炭材料对污泥絮体影响效果不同,经过未改性活性炭(AC-0)、HNO3改性活性炭(AC-1)和石墨调理的污泥絮体粒径变大,经酸碱交替改性活性炭(AC-5)调理的污泥絮体粒径变小;炭材料调理后EPS中蛋白类的荧光峰A、B和腐殖酸、富里酸的荧光峰C、D都得到有效降低,且其对腐殖酸和富里酸的吸附效果比蛋白类物质要好,对低分子质量物质和中分子质量物质的吸附效果要好于对大分子质量物质的吸附效果。     

优化复合调理促进含油污泥自持燃烧

对石化企业污水厂的含油剩余活性污泥进行超声-臭氧-生物质复合调理,破坏其稳定的胶体体系,降低泥饼的含水率,并对含油污泥复合调理的pH、温度、真空压力、超声波频率等影响因素进行优化;结果表明,在温度为35℃,pH值为3.0~5.0,超声波频率为33.2 k Hz时,经生物质复合调理后,保持0.06 MPa真空压力抽滤10 min,滤饼的含水率可降到58.58%,满足污泥自持燃烧的要求;同时,从污泥絮体结构、能量变化角度分析了不同温度和pH、超声波频率对含油污泥的作用机制;发现在偏酸性条件下,可减小污泥表面亲和力,促进污泥絮体凝聚;添加生物质在降低污泥含水率的同时也会降低污泥强度和可塑性;超声波对污泥除高能量作用外还具有空化作用,优化协调各因素对污泥絮凝沉降乃至自持燃烧作用均显著。     

电絮凝耦合DSA或过氧化氢强化污泥脱水性能的比较与机理分析

为解决电絮凝法调理污泥期间电场无法有效破解污泥絮体、改善污泥脱水问题,分别将电絮凝与尺寸稳定阳极(DSA,Dimensionally-stable anodes)电极、H₂O₂进行耦合,比较和分析2种耦合工艺对污泥过滤性能、絮体破解程度、胞外聚合物(EPS)组分改变和污泥脱水性能的差异。结果表明,电絮凝耦合H₂O₂形成的间接氧化体系中,由于电致·OH在非均相体系中能无选择性地破坏污泥絮体、破解污泥细胞并降解胞外聚合物(EPS),从而促使阳极释放的铁离子通过吸附架桥、网捕等作用与絮体碎片和EPS片段重聚并沉淀,使15 min内污泥毛细吸水时间(CST)和污泥含水率(MC)分别下降了73.9%和31.4%;然而电絮凝耦合DSA直接氧化法同期的污泥CST和MC仅分别下降了64.9%和26.4%。此外,间接氧化法可以同时降解松散结合层(LB-EPS)和紧密结合层(TB-EPS),破坏EPS蛋白质亲水基团与水的作用力,并改善传统电化学法主要降解LB-EPS的不足,实现了提高电化学方法在同步污泥破解与沉降脱水方...

以三氯化铁和聚二甲基二烯丙基氯化铵(PDMDAAC)为主要原料,制备PFC-PDMDAAC复合絮凝剂,分析其形貌特征,考察对海水的絮凝效果,并监测絮凝过程中絮体聚集变化、动态沉降及不同温度下絮凝程度的变化规律.结果表明,PFC-PDMDAAC的长链枝权状结构使其具有较好的除浊效果;当投加量从1×10-5mol/L增加到2×10-4 mol/L,体系中絮体平均粒径从5.92 μm增大至53.7 μm,粒径变化速率从65.5133 μm/min增加到5 385.66 μm/min;絮凝指数FI受海水温度的影响很大,温度越低,FI曲线上升越缓慢;与未投絮凝剂、投加PFC相比,投加PFC-PDMDAAC的海水体系具有较大的稳定动力学参数.通过定量分析絮体平均粒径、粒径变化速率、絮凝指数FI及稳定动力学参数等,从絮体特性和体系稳定动力学角度为监测混凝过程提供参考.     

沸石颗粒在污泥絮体中的形态及其对污泥泥水分离的影响

投加沸石粉提高了活性污泥的泥水分离性能。通过对沸石颗粒表面生物膜和投加了沸石粉的活性污泥絮体生长过程及成熟形态的微观观察,结果表明沸石颗粒不仅可以作为微生物载体长成生物膜,而且成为菌胶团核心和污泥絮体骨架,改善了污泥絮体的颗粒结构,从而增强了絮体强度,提高了絮体密度,降低了污泥塑性。研究结果表明沸石粉适宜的投加量为4g/L;在活性污泥中投加4g/L沸石粉后,SVI从193降低到155,污泥比阻从27.36×1012m/kg降低到5.67×1012m/kg;在沸石粉含量小于10g/L时,随着沸石粉含量的增加,污泥呈现压缩沉淀时界面沉速和出现压缩沉淀的时间持续减小。     

聚二甲基二烯丙基氯化铵-聚合硫酸铁复合絮凝剂对污泥的脱水性能

研究了聚二甲基二烯丙基氯化铵-聚合硫酸铁复合絮凝剂(PDMDAAC-PFS)对活性污泥的脱水性能,考察了投加量、配比和PDMDAAC的特性粘数等对污泥比阻降低和滤液浊度与COD去除的影响,并与PFS、PDMDAAC、PFS与PD-MDAAC联用(分开加入)、聚丙烯酰胺(PAM)、阳离子型聚丙烯酰胺(CPF130)和KHYC型絮凝剂的脱水效果进行了比较.结果表明,PDMDAAC-PFS对污泥比阻的降低和滤液浊度与COD的去除效果最好,但产生絮团的大小和强度比CPF130差,而其中PDMDAAC和PFS的用量分别比单独使用PDMDAAC和PFS减少了一半以上;PDMDAAC与PFS复配,增加了絮凝剂分子聚集体体积,利于在污泥粒子群间吸附架桥.     

典型化学条件对Fe~(2+)促进消化污泥凝聚性能的影响

以消化污泥为研究对象,研究了Fe~(2+)浓度、pH和离子强度等因素对Fe~(2+)促进消化污泥凝聚性能的影响,采用扩展的DLVO理论(EDLVO)探讨了污泥絮体凝聚过程中结合能的变化特征,并对典型条件下各层胞外聚合物(EPS)的三维荧光谱图(EEM)进行了分析。结果表明:Fe~(2+)促进消化污泥凝聚的最佳化学条件为Fe~(2+)浓度50 mmol·L~(-1),pH=7.57(原始值),离子强度0.01 mol·L~(-1)。在最佳Fe~(2+)浓度或pH下,Fe~(2+)促进污泥凝聚的主要作用为:增大Zeta电位、提高絮体粒径和密实程度、增强疏水性和降低污泥絮体间的能垒;在最佳离子强度下,提高絮体粒径和密实程度是促进污泥凝聚的主要作用;离子强度的增加并未降低污泥位能曲线的能垒。EEM证明,Fe~(2+)主要与污泥EPS中slime层结合以促进污泥凝聚,主要结合物为蛋白质A、可见富里酸和紫外富里酸。     

Fe(Ⅱ)活化过硫酸盐改善污泥脱水性能

针对污水处理厂剩余污泥脱水困难的问题,采用Fe~(2+)活化过硫酸钾高级氧化法提高剩余污泥脱水性能,使用污泥含水率和污泥比阻对调理前后污泥脱水效果进行分析;研究了过硫酸钾投加量、Fe~(2+)投加量、pH和反应时间对污泥调理效果的影响;探究了过硫酸盐调理污泥过程中溶解性有机物质和胞外聚合物(extracellular polymeric substance,EPS)的变化特性。结果表明:过硫酸钾调理的最佳反应条件为pH=7.5,反应时间为20 min,过硫酸钾和Fe~(2+)的最佳投加量分别为15 mmol·L~(-1)和18 mmol·L~(-1),在此条件下,污泥含水率和污泥比阻值分别可达78.89%和0.3×10~(12) m·kg~(-1);污泥含水率和比阻的变化可能与污泥调理后絮体结构形态变化有关;调理污泥后,上清液中溶解性有机物质含量与过硫酸钾投加量呈显著正相关关系,而EPS不同组分中蛋白质和多糖含量在Fe~(2+)投加后均减少,表明Fe~(2+)的投加可以破坏污泥絮体,分解胞内物质;利用Fe~(2+)激活过硫酸钾所生成的硫酸根自由基可极大改善污泥的脱水性能。     

生物酶-CTMAB/CPAM联合调理对活性污泥脱水性能的影响

采用单因子实验或响应曲面法分别研究了单一酶、复合酶以及复合酶-化学药剂联合的3种调理方式下污泥的脱水性能,并探讨了典型调理条件下污泥的Zeta电位、粒度和水分组成等变化特征。研究结果表明,复合酶、十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTMAB)和阳离子聚丙烯酰胺WD4960(WD4960)的单一调理和联合调理均能不同程度地释放污泥颗粒中的束缚水。污泥经0.13 g·g~(-1)TS中温a-淀粉酶作用1 h后,再投加0.16 g·g~(-1)TS中性蛋白酶作用4 h,其胞外有机物(EPS)中多糖(PS)、蛋白质(PN)组分含量分别为最低值17.88、218.72 mg·g~(-1)VSS,但污泥絮体的Zeta电位和粒度均减小,脱水性能恶化。对于复合酶调理后的污泥,再投加0.5 g·g~(-1)TS CTMAB进行二次调理后,抽滤泥饼含水率降至64.66%;当投加9.64 g·kg~(-1)TS的WD4960进行二次调理时,污泥的毛细吸水时间(CST)为最小值16.3 s。其中,CTMAB通过电中和、改变污泥絮体的亲疏水性等作用改善复合酶调理后污泥的脱水性能,而WD4960通过电中和、粘附架桥的絮凝作用,但后者释放的束缚水较少。     

溶气气浮过程动力学模型的分形观

凝聚/絮凝过程中形成的絮体通常具有分形几何结构,导致絮体的密度、渗透性发生了变化,从而对于固液分离过程(沉淀、气浮和过滤)带来很大的影响。本文基于前人对于絮体分形的研究成果,建立了絮体与微气泡之间接触碰撞的动力学方程、絮体/微气泡聚集体在水中上升的分形速率方程。絮体与微气泡间的相对尺度和流态的不同会有不同的碰撞机制,相应的动力学方程式与絮体的分形维数也有不同的关系。

Distribution and movement of nutrients and metals in a Pinus radiata forest soil following applications of biosolids

Samples of biosolids, spiked with increasing amounts of Cu, Ni or Zn were applied to field plots in a Pinus radiata forest, and the nutrient and metal status of the forest litter and underlying mineral soil was monitored over a period of six years following application. The macronutrient status of the forest litter was changed markedly by the biosolids application, with substantial increases in N, P and Ca concentrations, and decreases in Mg and K. The C/N ratio of the litter was also decreased and pH was increased by the biosolids application. The metals applied with the biosolids were retained predominantly in the litter layer, and even with non-metal-spiked biosolids there were substantial increases in litter metal concentrations. There was also firm evidence of some movement of Cu, Ni and Zn into the underlying mineral soil. The potential environmental issues resulting from these changes in nutrient and metal status are discussed.     

Effects of chlorination on the adhesion strength and deflocculation of activated sludge flocs.

A side effect of the application of chlorine for controlling filamentous bulking is deflocculation of floc-forming bacteria, which may cause unacceptable effluent deterioration depending on dosing. It was assumed that chlorine may adversely affect the adhesion ability of floc bacteria, promoting their erosion in shear flow. The effect of chlorination on the strength of activated sludge flocs was investigated. The adhesion-erosion (AE) model developed by Mikkelsen and Keiding was used to interpret results from deflocculation tests with varying shear and solids concentration. The AE model yields the adhesion enthalpy (deltaHG/R) of cells in sludge flocs and parameters from the model were used to quantify the sludge in terms of floc strength. Two activated sludges with different initial characteristics were studied. The resulting model parameters showed that the AE model was suitable for quantifying the bond energy of particles to the activated sludge exposed to chlorine. For one activated sludge, adhesion of cells was largely unaffected by the applied chlorine doses. A second sludge showed reduced adhesion strength with chlorine, leading to increasing deflocculation. The simple batch test and AE model proved valuable for assessing the effect of chlorination on the flocs in activated sludge. By use of these procedures, it is possible to determine acceptable chlorine dosing to avoid excessive deflocculation and effluent deterioration.     

Effects of soil amendments at a heavy loading rate associated with cover crops as green manures on the leaching of nutrients and heavy metals from a calcareous soil

The potential risk of groundwater contamination by the excessive leaching of N, P and heavy metals from soils amended at heavy loading rates of biosolids, coal ash, N-viro soil (1:1 mixture of coal ash and biosolids), yard waste compost and co-compost (3:7 mixture of biosolids to yard wastes), and by soil incorporation of green manures of sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea) and sorghum sudangrass (Sorghum bicolor x S. bicolor var. sudanense) was studied by collecting and analyzing leachates from pots of Krome very gravelly loam soil subjected to these treatments. The control consisted of Krome soil without any amendment. The loading rate was 205 g pot(-1) for each amendment (equivalent to 50 t ha(-1) of the dry weight), and the amounts of the cover crops incorporated into the soil in the pot were those that had been grown in it. A subtropical vegetable crop, okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.), was grown after the soil amendments or cover crops had been incorporated into the soil. The results showed that the concentration of NO3-N in leachate from biosolids was significantly higher than in leachate from other treatments. The levels of heavy metals found in the leachates from all amended soils were so low, as to suggest these amendments may be used without risk of leaching dangerous amounts of these toxic elements. Nevertheless the level of heavy metals in leachate from coal ash amended soil was substantially greater than in leachates from the other treatments. The leguminous cover crop, sunn hemp, returned into the soil, increased the leachate NO3-N and inorganic P concentration significantly compared with the non-legume, sorghum sudangrass. The results suggest that at heavy loading rates of soil amendments, leaching of NO3- could be a significant concern by application of biosolids. Leaching of inorganic P can be increased significantly by both co-compost and biosolids, but decreased by coal ash and N-viro soil by virtue of improved adsorption. The leguminous cover crop, sunn hemp, when incorporated into the soil, can cause the concentration of NO3-N to increase by about 7 fold, and that of inorganic P by about 23% over the non-legume. Regarding the metals, biosolids, N-viro soil and coal ash significantly increased Ca and Mg concentrations in leachates. Copper concentration in leachate was increased by application of biosolids, while Fe concentration in leachates was increased by biosolids, coal ash and co-compost. The concentrations of Zn, Mo and Co in leachate were increased by application of coal ash. The concentrations of heavy metals in leachates were very low and unlikely to be harmful, although they were increased significantly by coal ash application.     

絮体破碎再形成行为的计算机模拟

为了深入探讨絮体破碎行为对其分形成长及结构的影响,借助一种简化的絮体破碎模式对絮体破碎/再形成过程进行计算机模拟。通过对比分析破碎前后虚拟絮体的形态特征及其统计特性,得出如下主要结论：（1）絮体发生破碎后,所形成碎片的形态特征直接影响着再形成絮体的形态及恢复程度;（2）絮体外围枝杈结构的破坏,有利于运动粒子进入絮体内部或者均匀地排列在凝聚核周围,改善絮体质心附近颗粒的空间分布,从而有效地提高其致密性和抗剪切破坏能力;（3）在絮体分形成长过程中,存在一个使其由各向同性向各向异性过渡的临界状态,之后发育良好的枝杈对其余枝杈生长的抑制作用增强。此外,在实际操作时还应严格控制絮凝体系的物化条件,不宜使絮体过度破碎,以获得较好的絮凝效果。     

加药量和水力搅拌速度对雨水混凝效果的影响

为降低分流制雨水中悬浮颗粒物及其他污染物浓度,减轻城市景观河道的水体富营养化程度,对取自泵站的雨水进行混凝沉淀工艺优化实验。以PAC为混凝剂,采用Zeta电位仪、激光粒度仪和iPDA在线监测技术对混凝过程进行监测,考察了混凝剂投加量和水力搅拌速度对絮体形成和分流制雨水处理效果的影响,结果表明,混凝剂投加量和混合水力搅拌速度直接影响絮体Zeta电位和聚沉特性;混合搅拌速度控制混凝反应速率,絮凝速度梯度影响絮体形成粒径。FI曲线特征参数对控制混凝工艺具有指导意义。PAC投加量为35 mg/L,混合阶段搅拌速度800 r/min,搅拌30 s,絮凝阶段采用150、108和60 r/min的转速各自搅拌5 min,沉后水中剩余颗粒总数最少,浊度、COD和总磷去除效果最佳。     

Adsorption/desorption of linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (LAS) and azoproteins by/from activated sludge flocs

Our study investigated the adsorption/desorption by/from activated sludge flocs, dispersed in river water or in diluted wastewater, of organic compounds (C(11)-LAS, azoalbumin and azocasein) at concentrations relevant to environmental conditions. Activated sludge flocs, used as a model of biological aggregates, are characterized by a very heterogeneous matrix able to sorb the three organic compounds tested at 4 degrees C. The adsorbed amount of C(11)-LAS by activated sludge flocs was higher than that of azocasein or azoalbumin, as shown by the Freundlich parameters (K(ads)=8.6+/-1.7, 1.6+/-0.3 and 0.3+/-0.1 micromol(1-1/n)g(-1)l(1/n) for C(11)-LAS, azocasein and azoalbumin, respectively; n=3 sludges). C(11)-LAS sorption from activated sludge appeared to be partially reversible in river water, while a marked hysteresis phenomenon was observed for azocasein and azoalbumin, implying a low degree of reversibility in their exchange between activated sludge and river water. It has also been displayed that the conductivity variation of bulk water (comprised between 214 and 838 microS cm(-1)) exerted no dramatic effect on the C(11)-LAS desorption from activated sludge flocs, while a little effect of it on azocasein desorption was observed. Thus, biological aggregates as activated sludge flocs can serve as an intermediate carrier for C(11)-LAS, while it represents a sink for proteins.
