臭氧氧化降解水中青霉素G特性和动力学特征

为考察水中PCN（青霉素G）在臭氧氧化过程中的降解规律与特征,采用臭氧直接氧化法处理模拟废水中的PCN,研究了初始pH、ρ（臭氧）、初始ρ（PCN）、自由基抑制剂TBA（叔丁醇）、反应温度等对水中PCN去除效果的影响,并分析了PCN在臭氧氧化降解过程中的降解特性和动力学特征.结果表明:①在溶液体积为1 L、初始ρ（PCN）为50 mg/L、初始pH为11、ρ（臭氧）为15 mg/L、反应温度为20℃时,反应5 min时PCN去除率为100%,反应2 h时TOC去除率为28.98%.②PCN的降解速率和TOC去除效果随pH的增大而升高,碱性环境有利于PCN的矿化.③臭氧氧化过程中,PCN的降解以臭氧直接氧化为主,其降解中间产物的矿化主要以臭氧间接氧化为主,TBA可抑制强氧化性羟基自由基的产生效率,因而对TOC的矿化有明显的抑制作用.④对PCN的降解过程进行一级、伪一级和二级动力学方程拟合,结果表明,伪一级动力学方程拟合相关性（R2=0.999 7）最高,k（反应速率常数）最大值为0.825 5 min-1.研究显示,臭氧直接氧化可有效降解水中PCN,但对中间产物的矿化去除效果较为有限,臭氧氧化降解PCN的过程遵循伪一级反应动力学方程.      

饮用水中甲羟孕酮的臭氧氧化降解研究

以饮用水中内分泌干扰物孕激素类甲羟孕酮(MPA)为目标物,采用臭氧氧化工艺对其进行降解,对臭氧降解过程动力学进行了研究,并考察液相臭氧浓度、pH、羟基自由基(.OH)清除剂(HCO3-)对降解过程的影响.结果表明,臭氧在合适条件下能够有效降解水溶液中的MPA,MPA初始浓度为3、5、10 mg.L-1,采用连续臭氧曝气方式降解时,降解过程遵守一级反应动力学模型;采用序批式臭氧投加方式进行降解时,降解过程符合二级反应动力学模型.pH的升高和HCO3-的添加都会对降解效果产生负面影响.在反应温度为20℃,采用序批式臭氧投加方式,MPA的去除率从pH=3.10时的89.8%下降到pH=9.02时的74.6%.相同反应条件下,添加羟基自由基清除剂HCO3-后,降解反应速率常数由0.146 3 L.(mg.min)-1下降到0.049 5 L.(mg.min)-1,去除率下降了22.2个百分点.

在12 L的反应器中,观察了臭氧浓度分别为4.9、6.7和7.6 mg/L,溶液温度10.50℃,pH值为3.1、5.3、7.2、9.4和11.2条件下,臭氧氧化浓度为30 mg/L的有机磷杀虫剂敌敌畏的处理效果,并计算了臭氧氧化敌敌畏的反应动力学.结果表明,臭氧氧化法是处理敌敌畏的高效方法.不同浓度臭氧处理5 min时敌敌畏的去除率均在96%以上,6.7 mg/L的臭氧氧化处理敌敌畏4 min时矿化度(以TOC 计)可达34.8%.臭氧浓度越高,敌敌畏的降解速率越快.随着敌敌畏初始浓度的升高,敌敌畏的氧化去除率下降,但绝对去除量升高.试验范围内的pH值和温度对敌敌畏的臭氧氧化去除效果影响不大.在臭氧浓度6.7 mg/L,pH 7.2和室温20℃的条件下,臭氧氧化敌敌畏的反应级数为0.11,反应速率常数k为7.72 mg·(L·min)-1.

臭氧降解水中苯并三唑反应动力学及效能研究

对臭氧氧化去除水中痕量苯并三唑(BTri)的反应动力学、效能及其影响因素进行了实验研究.结果表明,臭氧分子与BTri直接反应速率常数k_Ｏ3=20.18 L·(mol·s)^-1,臭氧与BTri反应的表观反应速率常数K_BTri随pH值的不同而有显著差异,当pH值由6.63增加到7.83时,表观反应速率常数由63.42 L·(mol·s)^-1提高至582.69 L·(mol·s)^-1,增加约8倍.单独臭氧化可以有效地去除水体中痕量BTri,最终去除率可达85％;随着水体pH值的增加及水体温度的升高,BTri的反应速率大幅度提高;自然水体中常见阴离子NO^-₃、SO^2-₄、Cl^-对臭氧化去除BTri的去除率及反应速率无明显影响;羟基自由基(·OH)抑制剂叔丁醇对臭氧氧化去除BTri有一定的抑制作用,说明·OH也对臭氧氧化去除BTri有一定的贡献,表明臭氧化去除BTri的过程为O₃直接氧化及·OH间接氧化共同作用的结果.     

MgO低温催化臭氧降解氨氮的机制研究

研究了低温条件下单独臭氧及MgO催化臭氧化降解水中氨氮的效率和特征,并对其反应机制分别进行了探讨.结果表明,pH是影响臭氧和催化臭氧化除氨的重要因素,不仅影响溶液中NH_3与NH~+_4的比例和臭氧氧化氨氮的速率,还影响氧化产物种类,从而影响脱氮效果.10℃时,单独臭氧对水中氨氮的氧化降解效率随pH的升高而增大,pH≤9时整体降解效率不高,pH=9时仅为16.39%,而pH=10时达到41.77%.臭氧和·OH共同参与降解氨氮的过程.单独臭氧氧化氨氮生成氮气的选择性具有pH依赖性,并与Cl~-密切相关.pH低(≤9)时,氨氮多以NH~+_4形态存在,O_3与Cl~-反应生成ClO~-_x(x=1、3),再氧化NH~+_4,从而生成气态产物N_2或N_2O.MgO在低温条件下具有很强的催化臭氧化降解氨氮的能力且温度升高有利于反应的进行,0、10、20℃时,MgO催化臭氧化氨氮的效率分别为77.53%、80.17%、91.26%.此过程中,·OH参与反应的程度低,一部分氨氮降解依靠ClO~-_x氧化NH~+_4,而氨氮降解的主要途径为O_3对NH_3的直接氧化.

Toxic effects of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination on nifH gene in soil

Toxic effects of two agrochemicals on nifH gene in agricultural black soil were investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） and sequencing approaches in a microcosm experiment. Changes of soil nifH gene diversity and composition were examined following the application of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination. Acetochlor reduced the nifH gene diversity （both in gene richness and diversity index values） and caused changes in the nifH gene composition. The effects of acetochlor on nifH gene were strengthened as the concentration of acetochlor increased. Cluster analysis of DGGE banding patterns showed that nifH gene composition which had been affected by low concentration of acetochlor （50 mg/kg） recovered firstly. Methamidophos reduced nifH gene richness that except at 4 weeks. The medium concentration of methamidophos （150 mg/kg） caused the most apparent changes in nifH gene diversity at the first week while the high concentration of methamidophos （250 mg/kg） produced prominent effects on nifH gene diversity in the following weeks. Cluster analysis showed that minimal changes of nifH gene composition were found at 1 week and maximal changes at 4 weeks. Toxic effects of acetochlor and methamidophos combination on nifH gene were also apparent. Different nifH genes （bands） responded differently to the impact of agrochemicals： four individual bands were eliminated by the application of the agrochemicals, five bands became predominant by the stimulation of the agrochemicals, and four bands showed strong resistance to the influence of the agrochemicals. Fifteen prominent bands were partially sequenced, yielding 15 different nifH sequences, which were used for phylogenetic reconstructions. All sequences were affiliated with the alpha- and beta-proteobacteria, showing higher similarity to eight different diazotrophic genera.     

Arsenic uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal maize （Zea mays L.） grown in an arsenic-contaminated soil with added phosphorus

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus mosseae) and phosphorus (P) addition (100 mg/kg soil) on arsenic (As) uptake by maize plants (Zea mays L.) from an As-contaminated soil were examined in a glasshouse experiment.Non-mycorrhizal and zero-P addition controls were included.Plant biomass and concentrations and uptake of As,P,and other nutrients,AM colonization,root lengths,and hyphal length densities were determined.The results indicated that addition of P significantly inhibited root colonization and development of extraradical mycelium.Root length and dry weight both increased markedly with mycorrhizal colonization under the zero-P treatments,but shoot and root biomass of AM plants was depressed by P application.AM fungal inoculation decreased shoot As concentrations when no P was added,and shoot and root As concentrations of AM plants increased 2.6 and 1.4 times with P addition,respectively.Shoot and root uptake of P,Mn,Cu,and Zn increased,but shoot Fe uptake decreased by 44.6%,with inoculation, when P was added.P addition reduced shoot P,Fe,Mn,Cu,and Zn uptake of AM plants,but increased root Fe and Mn uptake of the nonmycorrhizal ones.AM colonization therefore appeared to enhance plant tolerance to As in low P soil,and have some potential for the phytostabilization of As-contaminated soil,however,P application may introduce additional environmental risk by increasing soil As mobility.     

Potential of plant polyphenol oxidases in the decolorization and removal of textile and non-textile dyes

In this study an effort has been made to use plant polyphenol oxidases; potato （Solanum tuberosum） and brinjal （Solanum melongena）, for the treatment of various important dyes used in textile and other industries. The ammonium sulphate fractionated enzyme preparations were used to treat a number of dyes under various experimental conditions. Majority of the treated dyes were maximally decolorized at pH 3.0. Some of the dyes were quickly decolorized whereas others were marginally decolorized. The initial first hour was sufficient for the maximum decolorization of dyes. The rate of decolorization was quite slow on long treatment of dyes. Enhancement in the dye decolorization was noticed on increasing the concentration of enzymes. The complex mixtures of dyes were treated with both preparations of polyphenol oxidases in the buffers of varying pH values. Potato polyphenol oxidase was significantly more effective in decolorizing the dyes to higher extent as compared to the enzyme obtained from brinjal polyphenol oxidase. Decolorization of dyes and their mixtures, followed by the formation of an insoluble precipitate, which could be easily removed simply by centrifugation.

Single and joint effects of pesticides and mercury on soil urease

The influence of two pesticides including chlorimuron-ethyl and furadan and mercury （Hg） on urease activity in 4 soils （meadow burozem and phaeozem） was investigated. The soils were exposed to various concentrations of the two pesticides and Hg individually and simultaneously. Results showed that there was a close relationship between urease activity and organic matter content in soil. Chlorimuron-ethyl and furadan could both activate urease in the 4 soils. The maximum increment of urease activity by chlorimuronethyl was up to 14%-18%. There was almost an equal increase （up to 13%-21%） in the urease activity by furadan. On the contrary, Hg markedly inhibited soil urease activity. A logarithmic equation was used to describe the relationship （P〈0.05） between the concentration of Hg and the activity of soil urease in the 4 tested soils. Semi-effect dose （ED50） values by the stress of Hg based on the inhibition of soil urease in the 4 soils were 88, 5.5, 24 and 20 mg/kg, respectively, according to the calculation of the corresponding equations. The interactive effect of chlorimuron-ethyl or furadan with metal Hg on soil urease was mainly synergic at the highest tested concentrations.     

Isolation and preliminary characterization of a 3-chlorobenzoate degrading bacteria

A study was conducted to compare the diversity of 2-, 3-, and 4-chlorobenzoate degraders in two pristine soils and one contaminated sewage sludge. These samples contained strikingly different populations of mono-chlorobenzoate degraders. Although fewer cultures were isolated in the uncontaminated soils than contaminated one, the ability of microbial populations to mineralize chlorobenzoate was widespread. The 3- and 4-chlorobenzoate degraders were more diverse than the 2-chlorobenzoate degraders. One of the strains isolated from the sewage sludge was obtained. Based on its phenotype, chemotaxonomic properties and 16S rRNA gene, the organism S-7 was classified as Rhodococcus erythropolis. The strain can grow at temperature from 4 to 37℃. It can utilize several （halo）aromatic compounds. Moreover, strain S-7 can grow and use 3-chlorobenzoate as sole carbon source in a temperatures range of 10-30℃ with stoichiometric release of chloride ions. The psychrotolerant ability was significant for bioremediation in low temperature regions. Catechol and chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase activities were present in cell free extracts of the strain, but no （chloro）catechol 2,3- dioxygenase activities was detected. Spectral conversion assays with extracts from R. erythropolis S-7 showed accumulation of a compound with a similar UV spectrum as chloro-cis,cis-muconate from 3-chlorobenzoate. On the basis of these results, we proposed that S-7 degraded 3-chlorobenzoate through the modified ortho-cleave pathway.     

Organochlorine pesticides in soils under different land usage in the Taihu Lake region, China

A field study was conducted in the Taihu Lake region, China in 2004 to reveal the organochlorine pesticide concentrations in soils after the ban of these substances in the year 1983. Thirteen organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) were analyzed in soils from paddy field, tree land and fallow land. Total organochlorine pesticide residues were higher in agricultural soils than in uncultivated fallow land soils. Among all the pesticides, ΣDDX (DDD, DDE and DDT) had the highest concentration for all the soil samples, ranging from 3.10 ng/g to 166.55 ng/g with a mean value of 57.04 ng/g and followed by ΣHCH, ranging from 0.73 ng/g to 60.97 ng/g with a mean value of 24.06 ng/g. Dieldrin, endrin, HCB and α-endosulfan were also found in soils with less than 15 ng/g. Ratios of p,p'-(DDD DDE)/DDT in soils under three land usages were: paddy field ＞ tree land ＞ fallow land, indicating that land usage inlfuenced the degradation of DDT in soils. Ratios of p,p'-(DDD DDE)/DDT ＞1, showing aged residues of DDTs in soils of the Taihu Lake region. The results were discussed with data from a former study that showed very low actual concentrations of HCH and DDT in soils in the Taihu Lake region, but according to the chemical half-lives and their concentrations in soils in 1980s, the concentration of DDT in soils seemed to be underestimated. In any case our data show that the ban on the use of HCH and DDT resulted in a tremendous reduction of these pesticide residues in soils, but there are still high amounts of pesticide residues in soils, which need more remediation processes.     

Sorption of 1-naphthol by plant cuticular fractions

The contribution of aliphatic-rich plant biopolymer to sorption of hydrophobic organic compounds is significantly important because of their preservation and accumulation in the soil environment,but sorption mechanism is still not fully understood.In this study, sorption of 1-naphthol by plant cuticular fractions was examined to better understand the contributions of respective fraction.Toward this end,cuticular materials were isolated from the fruits of tomato by chemical method.The tomato cuticle sheet consisted of waxes (6.5 wt%),cuticular monomer (69.5 wt%),and polysaccharide (24.0 wt%).Isotherms of l-naphthol to the cuticular fractions were nonlinear (N value (0.82-0.90)) at the whole tested concentration ranges.The KodKow ratios for bulk cuticle (TC1),dewaxed cuticle (TC2),cutin (TC4),and desugared cuticle (TC5) were larger than unity,suggested that tomato bulk cuticle and cutin are much powerful solption medium.Sorption capability of cutin (TC4) was 2.4 times higher than the nonsaponifiable fraction (TC3).The 1-naphthol interactions with tomato cuticular materials were governed by both hydrophobic-type interactions and polar (H-bonding) interactions. Removal of the wax and polysaccharide materials from the bulk tomato cuticle caused a significant increase in the sorption ability of the cuticular material.There was a linear negative trend between K_(oc) values and the amount of polysaccharides or fraction's polarities ((N O)/C);while a linear positive relationship between K_(oc) values and the content of cutin monomer (linear R~2=0.993) was observed for present in the cuticular fractions.Predominant sorbent of the hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) in the plant cuticular fraction was the cutin monomer,contributing to 91.7% of the total sorption of tomato bulk cuticle.     

Alterations of organ histopathology and metallolhionein mRNA expression in silver barb, Puntius gonionotus during subchronic cadmium exposure

Common silver barb,Puntius gonionotus,exposed to the nominal concentration of 0.06 mg/L Cd for 60 d,were assessed for histopathological alterations(gills,liver and kidney),metal accumulation,and metallothionein(MT)mRNA expression.Fish exhibited pathological symptoms such as hypertrophy and hyperplasia of primary and secondary gill lamellae,vacuolization in hepatocytes,and prominent tubular and glomerular damage in the kidney.In addition,kidney accumulated the highest content of cadmium,more than gills and liver.Expression of MT mRNA was increased in both liver and kidney of treated fish.Hepatic MT levels remained high after fish were removed to Cd-free water.In contrast,MT expression in kidney was peaked after 28 d of treatment and drastically dropped when fish were removed to Cd-free water.The high concentrations of Cd in hepatic tissues indicated an accumulation site or permanent damage on this tissue.     

Seed selections for crystallization of calcium phosphate for phosphorus recovery

Seed induces and promotes the crystallization of calcium phosphate, and acts as carrier of the recovered phosphorus （P）. In order to select suitable seed for P recovery from wastewater, three seeds including Apatite （AP）, Juraperle （JP） and phosphate-modified Juraperle （M-JP） were tested and compared. Batch and fixed-bed column experiments of seeded crystallization of calcium phosphate were undertaken by using synthetic wastewater with 10 mg/L P phosphate. It shows that AP has bad enduring property in the crystallization process, while JP has better performance for multiple uses, and M-JP is a hopeful seed for P recovery by crystallization of calcium phosphate.
