采用生物滴滤法净化低浓度磷化氢气体,探讨填料种类、进气量、氧浓度、进气磷化氢浓度等因素对净化过程的影响。复合填料能促进气态磷化氢的吸附,但微生物对磷化氢的净化起决定性作用。进气负荷高于300 mL·min~(-1)(空间速度为8.2 h~(-1))时,滴滤塔内磷化氢去除率下降明显;进气中氧含量不足时,生物氧化进程受到抑制,磷化氢净化效果变差。在进气流量200 mL·min~(-1)、氧体积分数8.2%、磷化氢入口浓度20 mg·m~(-3)条件下,磷化氢脱除率可高达76.8%,定期废弃的吸收液中总磷含量均低于1.0 mg·L~(-1)。生物滴滤塔内具有较高的微生物种群多样性,细菌以变形菌门(Proteobacteria)最为丰富,主要的细菌种属有:鞘氨醇单胞菌(Sphingomonas)、甲醇杆菌(Methylobacterium)、嗜甲基菌(Methylophilus)及伯克氏菌(Burkholderia)。

The Statistical Form for the Ambient Participate Standard Annual Arithmetic Mean vs Annual Geometric Mean

Abstract

The long-term stability of a biofilter loaded with waste gases containing NH₃ concentrations larger than 100 ppmv was studied in a laboratory-scale compost reactor. At an empty bed residence time (τ) of 21 sec, elimination capacities of more than 300 g NH₃/m³/day were obtained at elimination efficiencies up to 87%. Because of absorption and nitrification, almost 80% of the NH₃-N eliminated from the waste gas could be recovered in the compost as NH₄+-N or NO₂ ^?/NO₃ ^?-N. The high elimination capacities could be maintained as long as the NH₄+/NO_x concentration in the carrier material was less than 4 g NH₄+/NO_x ^?-N/kg wet compost. Above this critical value, osmotic effects inhibited the nitrifying activity, and the elimination capacity for NH₃ decreased. To restore the biofilter performance, a carbon source (methanol) was added to reduce NH₄+/NO_x ^? accumulated in the compost. Results indicate that methylotrophic microorganisms did convert NH₄+/NO_x ^? into biomass, as long as the NO₃ ^? content in the compost was larger than 0.1 g NO₃ ^?-N/kg compost. Removal efficiencies of CH₃OH of more than 90% were obtained at volumetric loads up to 11,000 g CH₃OH/m³/day. It is shown that addition of CH₃OH is a suitable technique for regenerating the compost material from osmotic inhibition as a result of high NH₃ loading. The biofilter was operated for 4 months with alternating loading of NH₃ and CH₃OH.

青萍(Lemna minor L.)对氮磷的吸收特征

以西部地区优势浮萍品种青萍为实验对象,研究了青萍对不同浓度硝态氮和磷酸盐的吸收特征。结果表明,硝态氮浓度在1～10 mg/L范围内,青萍对硝态氮有较好的吸收效果,M-M方程可以较好地描述硝态氮浓度与青萍对硝态氮的吸收速率之间的关系,通过M-M方程拟合得到青萍对硝态氮的最大吸收速率为0.1167 mg/(g FW.h),亲和力常数为6.9274。磷酸盐浓度在0.1～1.0 mg/L范围内,青萍对磷酸盐也有较好的吸收效果,二次多项式回归可以较好地描述青萍吸收速率与磷酸盐浓度的关系,回归方程得到青萍对磷酸盐的最大吸收速率为0.0193 mg/(g FW.h),对应磷酸盐浓度为0.6 mg/L。     

基于功能基因表达的高氯酸盐与硝酸盐氮修复

为更好地研究环境中高氯酸盐离子(ClO-4)与硝酸盐氮(NO-3-N)混合污染的共同降解。选用pcrA、cld基因表征参与高氯酸盐降解的细菌,NirS基因表征反硝化细菌,16S rRNA基因表征整个细菌群落的活性。通过对高浓度硝酸盐氮与高氯酸盐混合污染降解体系内不同时间点不同种基因的表达分析,实时定量的反应复杂环境中混合污染物生物降解机理。结果表明,在外源添加足够的醋酸盐作为电子供体条件下,NO-3-N与ClO-4质量浓度比为5∶1时,硝酸盐氮的存在不会完全抑制ClO-4的降解,当NO-3-N降解完全时,可以加快ClO-4的降解过程。在有硝酸盐氮存在的混合降解体系内,pcrA和cld基因与ClO-4的浓度变化之间的相关性不是很高,证明该功能基因对复杂环境中特定生物群落的表征有一定局限性。     

Biological Removal of Gaseous Ammonia in Biofilters: Space Travel and Earth-Based Applications

ABSTRACT

Gaseous NH₃ removal was studied in laboratory-scale biofilters (14-L reactor volume) containing perlite inoculated with a nitrifying enrichment culture. These biofilters received 6 L/min of airflow with inlet NH₃ concentrations of 20 or 50 ppm, and removed more than 99.99% of the NH₃ for the period of operation (101, 102 days). Comparison between an active reactor and an autoclaved control indicated that NH₃ removal resulted from nitrification directly, as well as from enhanced absorption resulting from acidity produced by nitrification. Spatial distribution studies (20 ppm only) after 8 days of operation showed that nearly 95% of the NH₃ could be accounted for in the lower 25% of the biofilter matrix, proximate to the port of entry. Periodic analysis of the biofilter material (20 and 50 ppm) showed accumulation of the nitrification product NO₃ ^- early in the operation, but later both NO₂ ^- and NO₃ ^- accumulated. Additionally, the N-mass balance accountability dropped from near 100% early in the experiments to ~95 and 75% for the 20- and 50-ppm biofilters, respectively. A partial contributing factor to this drop in mass balance accountability was the production of NO and N₂O, which were detected in the biofilter exhaust.     

Differences between Weekday and Weekend Air Pollutant Levels in Southern California

Abstract

Ambient air quality data were analyzed to empirically evaluate the effects of reductions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NO_x) emissions on weekday and weekend levels of ozone (O₃; 1991–1998) and particulate NO₃ ^- (1980–1999) in southern California. Despite significantly lower O₃ precursor levels on weekends, 20 of 28 South Coast Air Basin (SoCAB) sites (28 of all 78 southern California sites) showed statistically significant higher mean O₃ levels on Sundays than on weekdays (p < 0.01); 49 of the remaining 50 sites showed no significant differences between mean weekday and Sunday peak O₃ levels. We also observed no statistically significant differences between mean weekday and weekend concentrations of particulate NO₃ ^- or nitric acid (HNO₃, the precursor of particulate NO₃ ^-). Averaged over sites, the mean Sunday NO_x and nonmethane hydrocarbon concentrations were 25–41% and 16–30% lower, respectively, than on weekdays. Site-to-site differences between weekend and weekday mean peak hourly O₃ levels were related to whether O₃ formation was limited by the availability of NO_x. A thermodynamic equilibrium model predicts that particulate NO₃ ^- levels would decrease in response to a reduction of HNO₃, and that particulate ammonium NO₃ ^- formation was not limited by the availability of ammonia. The similarity of mean weekday and weekend levels of NO₃ ^- therefore did not result from limitations on the formation of particulate NO₃ ^- from its precursor, HNO₃.

Phosphorus removal in a sulfur–limestone autotrophic denitrification (SLAD) biofilter

The sulfur–limestone autotrophic denitrification (SLAD) biofilter was able to remove phosphorous from wastewater during autotrophic denitrification. Parameters influencing autotrophic denitrification in the SLAD biofilter, such as hydraulic retention time (HRT), influent nitrate (NO₃ ^?), and influent PO₄ ^3? concentrations, had significant effects on P removal. P removal was well correlated with total oxidized nitrogen (TON) removed in the SLAD biofilter; the more TON removed, the more efficient P removal was achieved. When treating the synthetic wastewater containing NO₃ ^?-N of 30 mg L^?1 and PO₄ ^3?-P of 15 mg L^?1, the SLAD biofilter removed phosphorus of 45 % when the HRT was 6 h, in addition with TN removal of nearly 100 %. The optimal phosphorus removal in the SLAD biofilter was around 60 %. For the synthetic wastewater containing a PO₄ ^3?-P concentration of 15 mg L^?1, the main mechanism of phosphorus removal was the formation of calcium phosphate precipitates.     

The APCA Exhibition

On June 5 and 6 of 1980, two parallel plume oxidation studies were carried out in the vicinity of the Tennessee Valley Authority's Colbert Steam Plant. One study was performed in a smog chamber into which stack gases were injected and mixed with ambient air. The other study included direct airborne sampling of the power plant plume. Atmospheric oxidation rates for the conversion of SO₂ to SO₄ ^2- and the removal rates of NO _x (which is presumably the rate of NO₃ ^- formation) were estimated for both studies. The SO₂ to SO₄ ^2- rate coefficients were found to be 0.022 ± 0.009 h^-1 for both chamber experiments and the first airborne sampling day. For the second day, a rate constant of 0.041 ± 0.052 h^-1 was estimated from the aircraft data. The large deviation in this value is explained by the fact that the plume from the power plant combined and reacted with the urban plume from the city of Florence, AL. The formation of a very large "O3 bulge" on this day is also attributed to the mixed plumes. The first order rate coefficients for NO _x removal were estimated to be 0.27 ± 0.14 h^-1 for both chamber experiments and the first airborne sampling day. A NO _x removal rate could not be determined for the second airborne sampling day.
