Effects of in-situ ozonation on indigenous microorganisms in diesel contaminated soil: survival and regrowth

Soil column experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of chemical oxidation on the survival of indigenous microbes (i.e., heterotrophic microbes, phenanthrene-degrading microbes, and alkane-degrading microbes) for field soil contaminated with diesel fuel. Rapid decreases of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and aromatics of diesel fuel were observed within the first 60 min of ozone injection; after 60 min, TPH and aromatics decreased asymptotically with ozonation time. The three types of indigenous microbes treated were very sensitive to ozone in the soil column experiment, hence the microbial population decreased exponentially with ozonation time. The numbers of heterotrophic, alkane-degrading, and phenanthrene-degrading bacteria were reduced from 10(8) to 10(4), 10(7) to 10(3), and 10(6) CFU g soil(-1) to below detection limit after 900 min of ozonation, respectively. Except for the soil sample ozonated for 900 min, incubation of ozone-treated soil samples that were not limited by oxygen diffusion showed further removal of TPH. The soil samples that were ozonated for 180 min exhibited the lowest concentration of TPH and the highest regrowth rate of the heterotrophic and alkane-degrading populations after the 9 weeks of incubation.     

载气含氧量及污染物浓度对土壤石油烃热脱附效率的影响

石油烃(TPHs)在土壤中难以降解,并具有生物毒性,异位热脱附(ESTD)在修复石油烃污染土壤方面极具应用潜力。采用实验室模拟异位热脱附装置,研究了热脱附载气含氧量及土壤石油烃污染浓度对可萃取石油烃(EPHs)中柴油段(DRO)和重油段(ORO)的5种组分去除率的影响。结果表明：在初始浓度为5 000~20 000 mg·kg⁻¹时,在20 min内的脱附率均不超过50%;当初始浓度增加到40 000 mg·kg⁻¹、脱附时间为20 min时脱附率可以达到68.2%。热脱附时间为50 min时,40 000 mg·kg⁻¹污染土壤的残余浓度为407.1 mg·kg⁻¹。DOR组分相同时间的脱附率随污染浓度的升高而升高,ORO组分在50 min之内不能完全脱附,脱附率随着污染物浓度上升会出现先增大后减小的趋势。在250 ℃时,DRO中3个组分的去除率均随着气氛含氧量的增加而呈现明显的增长趋势。在400 ℃条件下,ORO中2个组分分别在含氧量为12%和15%时达到最高的去除率。本研究结果可为ESTD技术修复不同浓度的石油烃污染土壤的工程设计参数提供参考。     

Abiotic reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethylenes by soil

Abiotic reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethylenes by soil in anaerobic environments was characterized to improve knowledge of the behavior of chlorinated ethylenes in natural systems, including systems modified to promote attenuation of contaminants. Target organics in the soil suspension reached sorption equilibrium in 2 days and the sorption isotherm of target organics was properly described by the linear sorption model. A modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood model was developed to describe the kinetics of reductive dechlorination of target organics by soil. The rate constants for the reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethylenes at the reactive surfaces of reduced soils were found in the range between 0.055 (+/- 8.9%) and 2.60 (+/- 3.2%) day(-1). The main transformation products in reduced soil suspensions were C2 hydrocarbons. No chlorinated intermediates were observed at concentrations above detection limits. Five cycles of reduction of the soil followed by oxidation of the soil with trichloroethylene (TCE) did not affect the removal of TCE. The removal was affected by the reductants used and increased in the order: Fe(II) < dithionite < Fe(II) + dithionite.     

Chemical oxidation of wastewater from molasses fermentation with ozone

Color removal from biologically pre-treated molasses wastewater by means of chemical oxidation with ozone has been investigated. Batch experiments have been performed in order to analyze the influence of ozone dosage and reaction time on color removal, molecular weight distribution and decolorization kinetics. Depending on the applied ozone dosage, color removal from 71% to 93% and COD reduction from 15% to 25% were reached after 30 min reaction time. TOC values remained constant throughout ozonation. Gel permeation chromatography corroborated that high molecular weight compounds, responsible for the brown color, were present in raw wastewater. UV spectral studies confirmed that these colored compounds were melanoidins. As a result of ozonation the concentration of chromophore groups decreased. Ozonation of synthetic melanoidin under the same experimental conditions provided similar color removal efficiencies. Pseudo-first order kinetics with respect to colored compounds were found.     

SDBS在土壤中的吸附及对淋洗柴油效果的影响

为考察污染土壤淋洗修复过程中表面活性剂的动态吸附解吸过程及其对淋洗效果影响,以北京潮土为例,采用土柱淋洗实验,对4种浓度（600、1 800、3 000和4 200 mg·L-1）的阴离子表面活性剂十二烷基苯磺酸钠（SDBS）淋洗柴油污染土壤的过程进行模拟。结果表明,土柱淋洗过程中北京潮土对 SDBS 的吸附过程可分3个阶段：快吸附阶段、慢吸附阶段及动态平衡阶段。吸附动力学较好地符合颗粒内扩散方程。SDBS淋洗柴油污染潮土时,初期由于表面活性剂在土壤中的吸附未达到平衡而无法在溶液中形成胶束,导致淋洗液中柴油浓度很低。此后SDBS在土壤中的吸附逐渐达到平衡状态,溶液中SDBS的浓度超过临界胶束浓度（CMC）开始形成胶束,土壤中残留的柴油开始大量解吸。淋洗液中柴油浓度总体呈先升到峰值,而后呈锯齿状波动下降的变化规律。淋洗到400 h时,4种浓度SDBS溶液对柴油的去除率分别为1.06%、1.52%、25.55%和27.99%,柴油去除率与表面活性剂浓度呈正相关。但表面活性剂浓度过高时,会降低土柱中土壤渗透系数,导致淋洗流量显著降低,采用SDBS淋洗柴油污染潮土时,表面活性剂浓度在3 000~4 200 mg·L-1较佳。     

Heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic ozonation of benzothiazole promoted by activated carbon: kinetic approach

Ozone oxidation combined with activated carbon adsorption (O(3)/AC) has recently started to be developed as a single process for water and wastewater treatment. While a number of aspects of aqueous ozone decomposition are well understood, the importance and relationship between aqueous ozone decomposition and organic contaminant degradation in the presence of activated carbon is still not clear. This study focuses on determining the contribution of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions to organic contaminants removal in O(3)/AC system. Benzothiazole (BT) was selected as a target organic pollutant due to its environmental concern. A reactor system based on a differential circular flow reactor composed by a 19 cm(3) activated carbon fixed bed column and 1 dm(3) storage tank was used. Ozone was produced from pure and dry oxygen using an Ozocav ozone generator rated at 5 g O(3)h(-1). Experimental results show that BT removal rate was proportional to activated carbon dosage. Activated carbon surface contribution to BT oxidation reactions with ozone, increased with pH in absence of radical scavengers. The radical reaction contribution within the pH range 2-11 accounted for 67-83% for BT removal in O(3)/AC simultaneous treatment. Results suggest that at pH higher than the pH of the point of zero charge of the activated carbon dissociated acid groups such as carboxylic acid anhydrides and carboxylic acids present on activated carbon surface could be responsible for the observed increase in the ozone decomposition reaction rate. A simplified mechanism and a kinetic scheme representing the contribution of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions on BT ozonation in the presence of activated carbon is proposed.     

Transport of lead and diesel fuel through a peat soil near Juneau, AK: a pilot study

A set of peat column experiments was used to determine the transport potential of lead (Pb) and diesel range organics (DRO) in palustrine slope wetlands near Juneau, AK. This project is important to southeast Alaskan communities because limited land resources are forcing development of regional wetlands. This study was instigated by concerns that proposed modifications to a nearby rifle range using DRO-contaminated soil posed a potential risk to an anadromous fish-bearing stream 250 m from the site. Three pairs of peat columns were extracted from the rifle range for analysis, one pair along and two pairs across the natural bedding planes of the soil. One column in each pair was spiked with Pb and DRO and the other was used as a control. Approximately 1-year worth of water (171 cm) was passed through each column and leachate was collected at regular intervals. The results showed that substantial DRO transport only occurred along the bedding planes. Leads was surprisingly mobile, both along and across the bedding planes with estimated soil-water partition coefficients several orders of magnitude lower than commonly published values, probably because the peat was heavily Pb-loaded by lead from bullets and because the peat's acidic, organic-rich environment enhanced Pb mobility. The chemical outflow behavior agreed with a simple macropore transport model. These results underscore the need for caution when developing regional wetlands.     

The interfacial mass transfer resistances of the ozone dry deposition over the field soil of Taichung County in Taiwan

This study aims to design a dry deposition chamber and to measure ozone depletion over the Taichung field soil. This study seeks to verify the phenomena by an experimental and mathematical model. It is demonstrated that interfacial mass transfer resistances of ozone dry deposition involve reactive resistance (R(sr)) and kinetic resistance (R(sk)). It reveals the chemical reaction (O3 + NO --> NO2) to produce the reactive resistance, and verifies that the interfacial mass transfer resistances depend on nitrogen oxide emission and soil temperature. It shows that the interfacial mass transfer resistances are reduced with increasing soil temperature (T(S)). The model profiles are smaller than the observed data within a relative error of 15%. The reactive resistance decreases exponentially with increasing soil temperature; R(sr)(-1) (cm x sec(-1)) = 0.0001 exp (0.1455T(S)). The kinetic resistance decreases linearly with increasing soil temperature; R(sk)(-1)(cm x sec(-1)) = 0.0108T(S) + 1.4012. This model is more accurate with higher soil temperature and larger ozone concentration. Results are consistent with thermodynamics and reaction kinetics. Ozone dry deposition over agricultural soil causes conversion of nitrogen oxide (NO) to nitrogen dioxide (NO2).     

Summer and autumn ozone fluxes to a forest in the Czech Republic Brdy Mountains

In an effort to examine ozone (O3) deposition over a forest site in the Czech Republic, a low cost eddy flux experiment using slow response ozone and temperature sensors was implemented in July 1993 within the Brdy Mountains. Half-hour 2-Hz ozone and sensible heat measurements made at the Brdy Mountains for 98 days during the period 7 July 1994-20 October 1994 are analyzed and reported. While the Czech Brdy Mountains AOT40 level for the overall 104 day period was 7.6 ppm h (15.1 ppm h for the full 24-h summation), indicating a slight potential for 03 injury, the 1994 summer to autumn'measured forest O3 uptake was 2.4 (+/- 0.9) g m(-2), not unusually high compared to other studies. Average summer midday 03 fluxes and depositidn velocities were -1.0 (+/- 0.6) microg m(-2) s(-1) and 1.1 (+/- 0.7) cm s(-1). and autumn values were -0.36 (+/- 0.4) microg m(-2) s(-1) and 0.7 (+/- 0.5) cm s(-1) respectively. A unique contribution of this study is the first time demonstrated use of slow responding sensors for eddy covariance flux measurements at heights of 20 m above a forest.     

Chemical absorption process for degradation of VOC gas using heterogeneous gas-liquid photocatalytic oxidation: toluene degradation by photo-Fenton reaction

A novel process for degradation of toluene in the gas-phase using heterogeneous gas-liquid photocatalytic oxidation has been developed. The degradation of toluene gas by photo-Fenton reaction in the liquid-phase has experimentally examined. The photo-Fenton reaction in the liquid-phase could improve the overall toluene absorption rate by increasing the driving force for mass transfer and as a result enhance the removal of toluene in the exhaust gas. The toluene concentrations in the inlet gas were varied in the range from 0.0968 to 8.69gm(-3) with initial hydrogen peroxide concentration of 400mgl(-1) and Fe dose of 5.0mgl(-1). It was found that toluene in the inlet gas was almost completely dissolved into water and degraded in the liquid-phase for the inlet toluene gas concentration of less than 0.42gm(-3). The dynamic process of toluene gas degradation by the photo-Fenton reaction providing information for reaction kinetics and mass transfer rate was examined. Toluene removal kinetic analysis indicated that photo-Fenton degradation was significantly affected by H(2)O(2) concentration. The experimental results were satisfactorily described by the predictions simulated using the simplified tanks-in-series model combined with toluene removal kinetic analysis. The present results showed that the proposed chemical absorption process using the photo-Fenton heterogeneous gas-liquid photocatalytic oxidation is very effective for degradation of volatile organic gases.     

Bioremediation of diesel-contaminated soil with composting

The major objective of this research was to find the appropriate mix ratio of organic amendments for enhancing diesel oil degradation during contaminated soil composting. Sewage sludge or compost was added as an amendment for supplementing organic matter for composting of contaminated soil. The ratios of contaminated soil to organic amendments were 1:0.1, 1:0.3, 1:0.5, and 1:1 as wet weight basis. Target contaminant of this research was diesel oil, which was spiked at 10,000 mg/kg sample on a dry weight basis. The degradation of diesel oil was significantly enhanced by the addition of these organic amendments relative to straight soil. Degradation rates of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and n-alkanes were the greatest at the ratio of 1:0.5 of contaminated soil to organic amendments on wet weight basis. Preferential degradation of n-alkanes over TPH was observed regardless of the kind and the amount of organic amendments. The first order degradation constant of n-alkanes was about twice TPH degradation constant. Normal alkanes could be divided in two groups (C10-C15 versus C16-C20) based on the first order kinetic constant. Volatilization loss of TPH was only about 2% of initial TPH. Normal alkanes lost by volatilization were mainly by the compounds of C10 to C16. High correlations (r=0.80-0.86) were found among TPH degradation rate, amount of CO2 evolved, and dehydrogenase activity.

Polar sunrise experiment 1995: hydrocarbon measurements and tropospheric Cl and Br-atoms chemistry

As part of the Polar Sunrise Experiments (PSE) 1995, we report our results on measurement of non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) collected at Alert, Northwest Territories, Canada (82.5° N, 62.3° W) from Julian days 57 to 113, 1995 along with our data on continuous methane and ozone measurements during the same period. The concentration of NMHCs such as alkanes correlated well with that of methane during the dark period before polar sunrise. However, no correlation was observed after the sunrise. Several ozone depletion events and concurrent decreases in hydrocarbon concentrations relative to their background levels were observed. In all ozone depletion periods, concentration changes of alkanes and toluene were consistent with the occurrence of Cl-atom reactions. The characteristics of alkane isomer concentration changes suggest the dominance of HO chemistry prior to, and a switch to Cl chemistry after, the polar sunrise (during the ozone depletion events). The changes in ethyne concentration from their background level were in excess of those expected from Cl-atom kinetics alone and are attributed to additional Br-atom reactions. The time integral for Br mixing ratios is a few orders of magnitudes higher than that for Cl-atoms, suggesting much higher Br-atom concentrations compared to Cl-atom concentrations, if they are present simultaneously.     

Environmental implications of soil remediation using the Fenton process

This work evaluates some collateral effects caused by the application of the Fenton process to 1,1-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane (DDT) and diesel degradation in soil. While about 80% of the diesel and 75% of the DDT present in the soil were degraded in a slurry system, the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the slurry filtrate increased from 80 to 880mgl(-1) after 64h of reaction and the DDT concentration increased from 12 to 50microgl(-1). Experiments of diesel degradation conducted on silica evidenced that soluble compounds were also formed during diesel oxidation. Furthermore, significant increase in metal concentrations was also observed in the slurry filtrate after the Fenton treatment when compared to the control experiment leading to excessive concentrations of Cr, Ni, Cu and Mn according to the limits imposed for water. Moreover, 80% of the organic matter naturally present in the soil was degraded and a drastic volatilization of DDT and 2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dichloroethylene was observed. Despite the high percentages of diesel and DDT degradation in soil, the potential overall benefits of its application must be evaluated beforehand taking into account the metal and target compounds dissolution and the volatilization of contaminants when the process is applied.     

Removal of propham from water by using electro-Fenton technology: kinetics and mechanism

The removal of a carbamate herbicide, propham, from aqueous solution has been carried out by the electro-Fenton process. Hydroxyl radical, a strong oxidizing agent, was generated catalytically and used for the oxidation of propham aqueous solutions. The degradation kinetics of propham evidenced a pseudo-first order degradation. The absolute rate constant of second order reaction kinetics between propham and ()OH was determined as (2.2+/-0.10)x10(9)m(-1)s(-1). The mineralization of propham was followed by the organic carbon (TOC) removal. The optimal Fe(3+) concentration was found as 0.5mM at 300mA. The 94% of initial TOC of 0.25mM propham solution was removed in 8h at the optimal conditions by using the cathode area to solution volume ratio of 3.33dm(-1). The maximum mineralization current efficiency values were obtained at 60mA in the presence of 0.5mM Fe(3+). During the electro-Fenton treatment, several degradation products were formed. These intermediates were identified by using high performance liquid chromatography, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and ion chromatography analysis. The identified by-products allowed proposing a pathway for the propham mineralization.     

Occurrence and removal of endocrine disrupting chemicals in wastewater

This paper discusses the occurrence and removal of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in Horsham sewage treatment plant (STP), West Sussex, UK. Photodegradation aided by a catalyst (TiO(2)) was studied for its efficiency of removing EDCs from wastewater. The degradation of estrone and 17beta-estradiol under natural sunlight followed a pseudo-first-order kinetics, with a rate constant of 0.01h(-1). The degradation by sunlight is also independent of initial chemical concentration, suggesting some potential of using this environmentally friendly method for waste minimisation. In comparison, more efficient degradation was observed with UV irradiation (253nm), with the rate constants being increased to 2.7 and 2.5h(-1) for the two compounds. Subsequent application of the photocatalysis method to real effluent treatment at Horsham STP was successful, as demonstrated by the non-detection of the target compounds following treatment.     

煤化工高盐废水臭氧催化氧化脱除COD

针对煤化工高盐废水中有机物难降解问题,采用浸渍-煅烧法制备了负载有活性金属氧化物的活性氧化铝型催化剂,探索催化剂的制备工艺和反应操作条件对废水COD去除率的影响。结果表明：活性氧化铝载体催化性能优于陶粒,活性氧化铝负载Cu、Mn、Ni的催化活性较高,将2种活性组分进行组合制得的MnO_x-NiO_x/γ-Al₂O₃催化剂,在经过60 min的臭氧催化氧化后,COD的去除率可达51.3%;利用BET、SEM-EDS、XRD对催化剂进行了表征和分析,Mn、Ni成功负载到活性氧化铝表面和孔隙内,2种元素负载量摩尔比约为2∶1,且主要以氧化物形式存在;通过计算臭氧利用效率,发现MnO_x-NiO_x/γ-Al₂O₃臭氧催化氧化的η值低于单独的臭氧氧化,这意味着通过MnO_x-NiO_x/γ-Al₂O₃催化剂可以有效地将臭氧分解成活性氧;通过优化臭氧和催化剂投加量后发现,在臭氧为350 mg·(L·h)⁻¹、催化剂投加量为100 g·L⁻¹废水中,反应180 min后,COD去除率可达到72.3%;在连续进行4 h的臭氧催化氧化实验后,MnO_x-NiO_x/γ-Al₂O₃稳定性和重复利用性均较好,COD去除率能维持在约42%,锰、镍离子的溶出量均小于0.5 mg·L⁻¹。以上研究结果可为高效的臭氧催化体系在煤化工高盐废水处理领域的应用提供参考。     

臭氧-过硫酸盐工艺深度处理垃圾焚烧渗沥液

针对垃圾焚烧渗沥液经"厌氧-缺氧-好氧"生物组合工艺处理后的出水COD仍在500 mg·L-1左右,且可生化性差（B/C=0.13）的问题,研究采用"臭氧-过硫酸盐"氧化体系进一步处理,以提高其可生化性。研究了臭氧和过硫酸盐投量对该废水处理的效果影响。结果表明,臭氧浓度和S2O2-8浓度分别为19.8 g·m-3和0.4 g·L-1时,且反应20 min,出水的B/C从0.13提高到0.49,表明该氧化体系适用于深度处理垃圾焚烧渗沥液生物组合工艺处理后的出水。采用紫外-可见光谱、三维荧光光谱、红外光谱和气质联用对处理系统废水中有机物进行表征分析,表明废水在"臭氧-过硫酸盐"氧化过程中芳香族化合物发生了开环、断链等反应,芳构化程度降低,不饱和的CC键被破坏,产生CO和C—O键,并生成一些结构简单的长链烷烃。自由基捕获研究表明,氧化体系中·OH和·SO4- 2种自由基均存在,以臭氧直接氧化为主。     

Efficacy of in-situ for the remediation of PAH contaminated soils

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of environmental concern because many PAHs are either carcinogens or potential carcinogens. Petroleum products are a major source of PAHs. The occurrence of PAH contamination is widespread and novel treatment technologies for the remediation of contaminated soils are necessary.Ozone has been found to be extremely useful for the degradation of PAHs in soils. For these compounds, the reaction with molecular ozone appears to be the more important degradation pathway. Greater than 95% removal of phenanthrene was achieved with an ozonation time of 2.3 h at an ozone flux of 250 mg h⁻¹. After 4.0 h of treatment at an ozone flux of 600 mg h⁻¹, 91 % of the pyrene was removed. We have also found that the more hydrophobic PAHs (e.g. chrysene) react more slowly than would be expected on the basis of their reactivity with ozone, suggesting that partitioning of the contaminant into soil organic matter may reduce the reactivity of the compound. Even so, after 4 h of exposure to ozone, the chrysene concentration in a contaminated Metea soil was reduced from 100 to 50 mg kg⁻¹ .Ozone has been found to be readily transported through columns packed with a number of geological materials, including Ottawa sand, Metea soil, Borden aquifer material and Wurtsmith aquifer material. All of these geological materials exerted a limited (finite) ozone demand, i.e. the rate of ozone degradation in soil columns is very slow after the ozone demand is met. Moisture content was found to increase the ozone demand, most likely owing to the dissolution of gaseous ozone into the pore water. As once the initial ozone demand is met, little degradation of ozone is observed, it should be possible to achieve ozone penetration to a considerable distance away from the injection well, suggesting that in-situ ozonation is a feasible means of treating uncontaminated unsaturated soils. This is substantiated by two field studies where in-situ ozonation was apparently successful at remediating the sites.     

高锰酸钾氧化水中二甲基三硫醚的动力学

研究了氧化剂KMnO4氧化水中二甲基三硫醚的效能,探讨了KMnO4投加量、二甲基三硫醚的初始浓度、pH值、腐植酸浓度以及同类臭味物质甲硫醚对氧化反应的影响,并对反应动力学进行了分析。结果表明：不同剂量的高锰酸钾对二甲基三硫醚有较强的氧化能力,基本完全氧化需要一定时间（达2 h）。随着高锰酸钾投量的增加,去除率和反应速率也随之增加,但高锰酸钾投加量不宜过多,建议最佳投加量为2 mg·L-1。实验发现：二甲基三硫醚初始浓度、实际水体pH值以及腐殖酸浓度对氧化反应的影响不明显;但水中同类臭味物质甲硫醚对氧化反应有抑制作用,使反应进程变慢。高锰酸钾氧化二甲基三硫醚的反应符合二级反应动力学模型,二级反应的动力学常数为k=0.006 59 L·（min·mg）-1,理论曲线与实际反应曲线存在一定的差距,但整个反应过程中2条曲线反应的去除率的差距不大,因此理论曲线能较好的指导实践。
