预氯化输水对表面停留性有机物及混凝除藻的影响

针对预氯化这一常用的预氧化方法,考察了表面停留性有机物(S-AOM)在这一过程中对铜绿微囊藻起到的关键作用。同时,探讨了表面停留性有机物及藻的氧化应激对混凝除藻效果的影响。结果表明,预氯化过程可实现适度预氯化的最佳氯投加量,适度预氯化可以在实现脱附S-AOM的同时不损伤藻细胞,强化后续混凝除藻的效果。此外,经过适度预氯化后的藻细胞在远程输水过程中可能会发生程序性死亡,胞内有机物不断泄漏,这仍会对水厂混凝除藻效果产生不利影响。因此,预氧化后藻细胞发生程序性死亡是预氯化强化混凝工艺需要考虑的关键因素。     

臭氧对饮用水管网中溶解性有机物的影响

利用生物膜环状反应器模拟配水管网系统,将水厂砂滤池出水经过臭氧氧化后投加氯然后进入该模拟管网,另外把水厂砂滤池出水加氯后通入另一模拟管网作为对照实验。通过对两管网出水余氯、总铁、浊度、溶解性有机物(DOC)、以及消毒副产物三卤甲烷(THMs)、卤乙酸(HAAs)生成情况的测定,研究了饮用水臭氧处理对管网出水水质的影响。单因素方差分析结果表明,两管网出水的余氯、总铁、浊度以及THMs、HAAs含量相差不大,但DOC在臭氧氯管网中消耗较多。同时通过高效凝胶色谱(HPSEC), 红外光谱(FTIR)和三维荧光光谱(EEM)表征了不同管网进出水DOC变化,结果表明,臭氧氧化后的管网出水中溶解性有机物荧光光谱中三区富里酸和五区腐植酸荧光峰值(ФⅢ+Ⅴ,n)减小较多,管网出水消毒副产物稍有增加。     

天然有机物对零价铁去除水体中砷的影响研究

在研究零价铁对水体中砷去除动力学的基础上,着重探讨了天然有机物腐殖酸对零价铁除砷的影响.并对零价铁的腐蚀产物进行了分析.结果表明,水体中的砷可以通过在零价铁腐蚀产物上的吸附得到快速去除.腐殖酸显著降低了砷的去除率,这归因于腐殖酸与零价铁腐蚀产生的铁离子形成络合物,阻止了Fe(OH)3(或Fe(OH)2)沉淀的产生.腐殖酸浓度越高.砷的去除率越低.1.00 mg腐殖酸最多可以络合约0.75 mg铁离子.当铁离子与腐殖酸的络合达到饱和后,零价铁进一步腐蚀产生的铁离子可形成Fe(OH)3(或Fe(OH)2)沉淀,这些沉淀物可吸附水体中的腐殖酸和砷,从而加速砷的去除.冷冻干燥后的零价铁腐蚀产物的结构以无定型为主,含有少量的结晶化合物,包括γ-Fe2O3、γ-FeO(OH)和Fe3O4等.腐殖酸的存在可进一步增加腐蚀产物中的无定型成分.光电能谱(XPS)分析结果显示,吸附在腐蚀产物上的砷为5价,没有发现5价砷被还原成3价砷.在应用零价铁修复砷污染水体时,应考虑腐殖酸的影响.     

硅藻土强化混凝去除微污染原水中的有机物

研究了联用硅藻土与聚合氯化铝（PAC）强化混凝对有机微污染原水中不同性质溶解性有机物的去除效果。采用超滤膜和XAD系列树脂对微污染原水中溶解性有机物进行分级表征,物理分级表明分子量〈4 kD的溶解性有机物占50%以上,化学分级表明原水中以憎水酸（HoA）和亲水物质（HiM）为主。硅藻土助凝去除溶解性有机物,实验结果表明,当PAC投加量30 mg/L,硅藻土投加量0.5 g/L时,溶解性有机碳去除率由22.5%提高到26.3%。     

Enhanced removal of lead(II) and cadmium(II) from water in alum coagulation by ferrate(VI) pretreatment.

A laboratory study demonstrated that ferrate pretreatment significantly enhanced lead and cadmium removal in alum coagulation, under the conditions of natural surface water. The enhancement of lead removal was approximately 21 to 37% by ferrate pretreatment at a dosage of 1 to 5 mg/L. The enhanced removal of cadmium by ferrate pretreatment at a dosage of 1 to 5 mg/L exceeded the removal by alum coagulation alone 2-to 12-fold. Cadmium is much more difficult to remove than lead in alum coagulation. The performance of ferrate in enhancing the removal of lead and cadmium in alum coagulation was better than that of ferric chloride. The removal of lead and cadmium was highly pH-dependent, following the general trend of higher pH being related to higher removal. Satisfactory removal of cadmium could be expected by ferrate pretreatment combined with adjusting the pH of the water.     

Molecular size distribution of natural organic matter in raw and drinking waters.

The purpose of this study was to compare the molecular size distribution (MSD) of natural organic matter (NOM) in raw waters (RW) and drinking waters (DW), and to find out the differences between MSD after different water treatment processes. The MSD of NOM of 34 RW and DW of Finnish waterworks were determined with high-performance size-exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). Six distinct fractions were generally separated from water samples with the TSK G3000SW column, using sodium acetate at pH 7 as an eluent. Large and intermediate humic fractions were the most dominant fractions in surface waters (lakes and rivers), while in artificially recharged groundwaters and natural groundwaters intermediate and small fractions predominated. Water treatment processes removed the two largest fractions almost completely shifting the MSD towards smaller molecular size in DW. Granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration, ozonation, and their combination reduced all humic fractions compared to the conventional treatment. Humic fractions correlated with total organic carbon (TOC) content and chemical oxygen demand, this being especially true in RW. The results demonstrate that the HPSEC method can be applied for a qualitative and also for rough estimate quantitative analyzes of NOM directly from RW and DW samples without sample pretreatment.     

An overview of the methods used in the characterisation of natural organic matter (NOM) in relation to drinking water treatment

Natural organic matter (NOM) is found in all surface, ground and soil waters. During recent decades, reports worldwide show a continuing increase in the color and NOM of the surface water, which has an adverse affect on drinking water purification. For several practical and hygienic reasons, the presence of NOM is undesirable in drinking water. Various technologies have been proposed for NOM removal with varying degrees of success. The properties and amount of NOM, however, can significantly affect the process efficiency. In order to improve and optimise these processes, the characterisation and quantification of NOM at different purification and treatment processes stages is important. It is also important to be able to understand and predict the reactivity of NOM or its fractions in different steps of the treatment. Methods used in the characterisation of NOM include resin adsorption, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The amount of NOM in water has been predicted with parameters including UV-Vis, total organic carbon (TOC), and specific UV-absorbance (SUVA). Recently, methods by which NOM structures can be more precisely determined have been developed; pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS), multidimensional NMR techniques, and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). The present review focuses on the methods used for characterisation and quantification of NOM in relation to drinking water treatment.

强化混凝过程絮体形态对锑(V)去除效果的影响

利用混凝烧杯试验法,考察聚硫酸铁(PFS)强化混凝去除五价锑(Sb(V))过程中不同混凝条件对絮体形态(包括粒度和结构)以及出水水质的影响。结果表明,絮体平均粒径和分形维数的变化主要取决于主导混凝机理,且能通过作用于混凝效果而影响沉后水中悬浮态Sb(V)含量,但对最终除Sb(V)效果(主要为溶解态)的影响极为有限;原水pH和PFS投量对Sb(V)的去除有重要影响,而温度和混凝搅拌强度的作用却较小,并且助凝剂PAM的投加会在一定程度上削弱去除效果。在实际运行中,还需尽量避免沉后水因微小絮体过多影响后续工艺的运行工况及出水水质等。     

Powdered activated carbon coupled with enhanced coagulation for natural organic matter removal and disinfection by-product control: application in a Western Australian water treatment plant

The removal of organic precursors of disinfection by-products (DBPs), i.e. natural organic matter (NOM), prior to disinfection and distribution is considered as the most effective approach to minimise the formation of DBPs. This study investigated the impact of the addition of powdered activated carbon (PAC) to an enhanced coagulation treatment process at an existing water treatment plant on the efficiency of NOM removal, the disinfection behaviour of the treated water, and the water quality in the distribution system. This is the first comprehensive assessment of the efficacy of plant-scale application of PAC combined with enhanced coagulation on an Australian source water. As a result of the PAC addition, the removal of NOM improved by 70%, which led to a significant reduction (80-95%) in the formation of DBPs. The water quality in the distribution system also improved, indicated by lower concentrations of DBPs in the distribution system and better maintenance of disinfectant residual at the extremities of the distribution system. The efficacy of the PAC treatment for NOM removal was shown to be a function of the characteristics of the NOM and the quality of the source water, as well as the PAC dose. PAC treatment did not have the capacity to remove bromide ion, resulting in the formation of more brominated DBPs. Since brominated DBPs have been found to be more toxic than their chlorinated analogues, their preferential formation upon PAC addition must be considered, especially in source waters containing high concentrations of bromide.     

Enhancement effect of water associated with natural organic matter (NOM) on organic compound-NOM interactions: a case study with carbamazepine

Natural organic matter (NOM) in soils and sediments is recognized to strongly affect environmental distributions of organic compounds. Water associated with NOM may have a significant impact on NOM-organic compound interactions. The objectives of this research were (1) to determine the effect of hydration of a model NOM sorbent on interactions with a probe organic compound, carbamazepine (CBZ), and (2) based on the comparison with the literature data, to evaluate the effect of organic compound structure on the cooperative participation of water molecules in organic sorbate-NOM interactions. CBZ is one of the most widely reported water pollutants from the pharmaceutical and personal care products family. Therefore, CBZ sorption on Pahokee peat was compared from water and from n-hexadecane, using solubility-normalized solute concentrations. CBZ-NOM interactions were enhanced by one to two orders of magnitudes when NOM became fully hydrated. This enhancement is associated with the distinct ability of CBZ to undergo strong, specific interactions with NOM which was revealed by comparing the transfer of CBZ and another model sorbate, phenanthrene, from solution in n-hexadecane to the hydrated NOM sorbent. The enhancing effect of NOM hydration on CBZ-NOM interactions was also observed when CBZ sorption was examined on partially hydrated NOM. In comparison with a smaller-size organic sorbate such as phenol, CBZ needs more NOM-associated water in order to demonstrate the strengthening of interactions with NOM. Therefore, for penetration of the larger sorbate molecules into the NOM interior, a greater number of water molecules are needed to compensate for the local NOM disintegration thus suggesting the greater extent of the cooperativity in an involvement of water molecules in the CBZ-NOM interactions.     

紫外波长对UV/Cl2高级氧化去除水中有机物的影响

为明确紫外波长对UV/Cl2高级氧化体系的影响,使用中心波长分别为267、275和286 nm的发光二极管LED作为光源,探究Cl2光解动力学、UV/Cl2体系自由基生成、对模式化合物溶液以及天然水、再生水TOC的去除。结果表明：在中性或酸性体系中,267 nm最接近HClO最大吸收波长237 nm,吸光度和量子产率均较大,羟基自由基产生水平较高,有机物去除效果较好;在碱性体系中,286 nm最接近ClO-最大吸收波长292 nm,尽管量子产率较小,但吸光度很大,有机物去除效果较好;由于水杨酸在292 nm附近有较强的竞争吸收,使用UV286去除水杨酸效果被削弱。应用UV/Cl2技术选择波长时需要考虑吸光度、量子产率、竞争吸收等因素;对于弱碱性天然水或再生水,采用波长为292 nm的紫外光一般可获得较优处理效果。     

典型南方水源溶解性有机物荧光特性变化与去除

于2014年4-9月,研究我国一典型南方水源溶解性有机物(DOM)的荧光特性变化与去除情况,同时分析了DOM荧光组分与三氯乙醛生成势(CHFP)的相关性。结果表明,该水源DOM主要以芳香性蛋白质类物质组成,溶解性微生物代谢产物类物质、富里酸类物质和腐殖酸类物质含量逐渐增加;5个荧光区域的积分体积(ΦⅠ,n、ΦⅡ,n、ΦⅢ,n、ΦⅣ,n和ΦⅤ,n)所占总体积(ΦT,n)平均比例依次为:13.55%、27.53%、25.00%、16.02%和17.91%;原水DOM的CHFP范围为27.06~81.20μg/L,平均值为46.60μg/L,三氯乙醛(CH)前体物含量与水体中溶解性微生物代谢产物类物质相关性最好;与常规处理工艺相比,O3/BAC深度处理工艺对于溶解性微生物代谢产物类物质的去除率大幅提高,更有利于CH的控制。     

生产废水回用对常规净水工艺去除有机农药的影响

通过小试实验,研究了生产废水直接回用对常规净水工艺各处理单元去除有机农药的影响。结果表明,尽管生产废水直接回用能够显著提高浊度和UV254的去除率,但对有机农药去除的影响差异较大。对于具有较大正辛醇/水分配系数(lgKow)的农药,生产废水回用能够提高其去除效果,而对于lgKow较小的有机农药,生产废水直接回用对其去除效果没有显著影响;另外,由于生产废水本身含有一定浓度的该类农药,长期回用可能会引起出水中该类物质的富集现象。

常规水处理工艺通常不能完全将水中新兴污染物(ECs)去除,残留的污染物仍然具有相当大的环境风险,如何有效地去除水中痕量新兴污染物是一个亟待解决的难题。本文概述了新兴污染物的来源、种类和危害,并分析了混凝工艺去除新兴污染物的可行性,重点介绍了新兴污染物性质、混凝剂种类和投加量、pH和水中溶解性物质对混凝效果的影响机制,并介绍了混凝与氧化、膜过滤及吸附等工艺的组合集成技术。在此基础上,对未来混凝技术去除新兴污染物的研究方向和发展趋势进行了展望。     

活性炭-超滤深度处理工艺对三氯乙醛生成潜能的影响及其对饮用水中有机物的去除

以我国南方某活性炭-超滤深度处理工艺水厂为研究对象,对工艺过程中三氯乙醛生成潜能(CHFP)及相关有机物指标进行为期1年每月1次的监测,以明晰活性炭-超滤深度处理工艺对CHFP及有机物的去除能力。结果表明:原水CHFP均呈现一定的季节性变化趋势,高温季节(5—9月)相对较高,范围为15.50～64.00 μg·L-1,活性炭-超滤深度处理工艺对CHFP 、TOC、CODMn和UV254去除率范围分别为37.42%～69.12%、25.25%～66.71%、27.33%～61.25%和21.80%～72.46%,平均去除率分别为54.51%、39.21%、45.04%和42.91%;混凝沉淀单元在CHFP和有机物指标去除中均起主要作用,炭滤单元对TOC有较好的去除作用,超滤单元对CHFP和CODMn有较好的去除作用。建议水厂设计与运行中将臭氧与活性炭滤池联合使用,以协同去除CHFP和有机物,进一步提高供水水质。     

PAM复配混凝剂对高岭土体系混凝过程的影响

为了解决无机混凝剂在混凝过程中的不足,选用AlCl3及其与2种不同阴离子度的PAM复配的混凝剂对高岭土体系进行混凝实验研究。结果表明：使用AlCl3做混凝剂,当投加量（以Al计）为0.1 mmol·L-1时,剩余浊度达到最低;平衡时粒径达到700 μm,且随着破碎时间的延长,絮体再生长结束后的粒径逐渐减小,在破碎时间为6.0 min时,絮体粒径最终能恢复到300 μm左右。以PAM-1复配的AlCl3为混凝剂,在投加量为0.1 mmol·L-1时,剩余浊度最低;经慢速搅拌10 min,絮体平衡时的粒径较使用AlCl3作混凝剂时略小,但随着PAM-1浓度的增大,絮体破碎后的恢复能力逐渐增大。当PAM-1与Al的比例为10%,破碎1.0 min时,絮体粒径最终可以恢复到600 μm左右。以PAM-2复配的AlCl3为混凝剂时,由于PAM-2的阴离子度过高,需要更多的混凝剂中和体系中存在的负电荷,所以在混凝剂浓度为0.2 mmol·L-1时,剩余浊度才达到最低。     

Soil remediation time to achieve clean-up goals II: Influence of natural organic matter and water contents

This work reports a relatively rapid procedure for the forecasting of the remediation time (RT) of sandy soils contaminated with cyclohexane using vapour extraction. The RT estimated through the mathematical fitting of experimental results was compared with that of real soils. The main objectives were: (i) to predict the RT of soils with natural organic matter (NOM) and water contents different from those used in experiments; and (ii) to analyse the time and efficiency of remediation, and the distribution of contaminants into the soil matrix after the remediation process, according to the soil contents of: (ii1) NOM; and (ii2) water. For sandy soils with negligible clay contents, artificially contaminated with cyclohexane before vapour extraction, it was concluded that: (i) if the NOM and water contents belonged to the range of the prepared soils, the RT of real soils could be predicted with relative differences not higher than 12%; (ii1) the increase of NOM content from 0% to 7.5% increased the RT (1.8-13 h) and decreased the remediation efficiency (RE) (99-90%) and (ii2) the increase of soil water content from 0% to 6% increased the RT (1.8-4.9 h) and decreased the RE (99-97%). NOM increases the monolayer capacity leading to a higher sorption into the solid phase. Increasing of soil water content reduces the mass transfer coefficient between phases. Concluding, NOM and water contents influence negatively the remediation process, turning it less efficient and more time consuming, and consequently more expensive.     

Biomass-derived materials in the remediation of heavy-metal contaminated water: removal of Cadmium(II) and copper(II) from aqueous solutions

Manganese-coated activated carbon (MCAC) and activated carbon were used in batch experiments for the removal of cadmium(II) and copper(II). Results showed that uptake of Cd(II) and Cu(II) was unaffected by increases in pH (3.0 to 8.5) or concentration (1 to 20 mg/L). Increased ionic strength (from 0.001 to 1 M NaNO3), however, significantly affected the uptake of Cd(II); adsorption of Cu(II) was not affected. Freundlich adsorption isotherm results indicated that MCAC possessed higher sorption capacity than activated carbon. Second-order rate constants were found to be 0.0386 for activated carbon and 0.0633 g/mg x min for MCAC for Cd(II) and 0.0774 for AC and 0.1223 g/mg x min for MCAC for Cu(II). Column experiments showed that maximum sorption capacity of MCAC was 39.48 mg/g for Cu(II) and 12.21 mg/g for Cd(II).
