硫酸钛混凝去除无机砷(Ⅲ)的效能

使用硫酸钛作为混凝剂,研究了混凝去除As(Ⅲ)过程中溶液pH值、混凝剂投加量、砷的初始浓度以及阴离子对除砷效果的影响.硫酸钛的水解沉淀物颗粒等电点为pH =5;当pH =6时,水解沉淀物的粒径最大.在pH =5 ～8范围内,As(Ⅲ)的去除率高且基本稳定;而沉淀物颗粒Zeta电位降低较大.说明水解沉淀物Zeta电位对As(Ⅲ)的去除影响不大.混凝剂投加量为2.5 ～10 mg/L时,As (Ⅲ)的去除率随投加量的增加而显著增加;混凝剂投加量大于15 mg/L时,As(Ⅲ)去除率随混凝剂投加量的增加变化趋于平缓.水中阴离子(硅酸根和磷酸根离子)的存在会降低混凝对As (Ⅲ)的去除效率.

铜绿微囊藻的胞外有机物对不同混凝剂除藻效果的影响

为了保证水厂在高藻条件下的安全清洁供水,以分布较为广泛的铜绿微囊藻(Microcystis aeruginosa)为研究对象,采用2种铝系混凝剂AlCl3和聚合氯化铝(polyaluminum chloride,PACl)进行烧杯混凝实验,考察混凝过程中铝形态对除藻的影响,分析铜绿微囊藻的胞外有机物(extracellular organic matters,EOM)对藻去除的影响机制。结果表明:在PACl浓度为0.04 mmol·L~(-1)时,对藻细胞及浊度的去除率均为90%,而AlCl_3摩尔浓度为0.08 mmol·L~(-1)时,藻细胞及浊度去除率才达到90%;在制备PAC时,会水解产生大量中等聚合形态、性质稳定的Alb,在弱酸性到弱碱性的范围(pH为6～8)内,Alb对藻细胞去除率均可达到95%以上;而AlCl_3只有在比较窄的pH范围内形成原位Al_b,AlCl_3只能在较窄的pH范围内(pH为6～6.5)保持95%藻细胞去除率。与AlCl_3相比,PACl可去除更多表观分子质量为200～300 Da的胞外聚合物,同时PACl混凝后得到的絮体密实度大于AlCl_3。以上结果为研究铝系混凝剂强化去除藻的胞外有机物提供了参考。

纳米零价铁颗粒除磷反应机理

从溶液化学与固相表征两方面对纳米零价铁(NZVI)去除水中磷酸根(PO3-4)的机理进行初步探究。分别研究不同初始p H值、溶解氧(DO)对NZVI除磷效果的影响,结果表明,酸性环境(p H为3.0~7.0)有利于NZVI除磷,且初始p H值越低,磷去除率越高;好氧环境较厌氧环境更利于磷的去除,DO8.0 mg/L时对磷酸根的去除率是厌氧条件(DO0.1 mg/L)下的2倍。采用Na OH对反应后含磷NZVI进行解析,发现磷解析率不到30%,说明吸附并非NZVI除磷惟一作用机理。微米铁、NZVI和Ca(OH)2等7种不同去除材料中以Ca(OH)2的共沉淀作用去除率最大(99.9%),NZVI次之(87.2%),表明NZVI除磷机理中还存在共沉淀作用。采用多种固相表征手段对NZVI除磷前后进行分析:扫描电子显微镜(SEM)显示反应后出现不规则颗粒;X射线衍射(XRD)表明Fe3(PO4)2是主要反应产物;X射线光电子能谱(XPS)分析未发现磷被还原成低价态。研究表明,NZVI可有效去除水中磷酸根,主要去除机理包括:NZVI对磷酸根的吸附作用、NZVI在水中腐蚀产生的Fe2+离子对磷酸根的化学沉淀作用及铁氢氧化物与磷酸根的共沉淀作用。     

玉米深加工废水的混凝实验

在室温条件下,分别选用聚合氯化铝(PAC)、聚合氯化铝铁(PAFC)及三氯化铁(FeCl3)对玉米深加工废水进行混凝实验。综合考虑各种混凝剂对磷、COD以及SS的去除效果,最终选取PAC作为混凝剂。采用PAC和聚丙烯酰胺(PAM)作为复合混凝剂,对其去除效果做进一步研究,并确定了最佳投加量及pH值。实验结果表明,在PAC投加量25mg/L,PAM投加量0.5 mg/L,pH为8条件下,混凝效果最佳。磷、COD、SS去除率可分别达到90.1%、53.3%和88.2%,对应的出水质量浓度分别为0.41、26.8和2 mg/L。     

氯化铁处理AB工艺二级出水中的磷

铁盐混凝剂因其高电荷、安全无毒、易于控制等优点,在城市污水厂除磷方面得到了进一步的发展和应用。为了考察FeCl3除磷的作用特征,探讨除磷效率随pH值、FeCl3投加量等混凝参数的变化规律,以氯化铁(FeCl3)为除磷剂,某城市污水处理厂二级出水为实验水样,进行了实验研究。研究结果表明,水样的硬度对混凝剂除磷性能有较大影响,在最佳工艺条件———不调节水样pH值、FeCl3投加量为75 mg/L时,可将废水中的总磷含量从4.95 mg/L降至0.44 mg/L以下,处理出水可达《城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准》(GB 18918-2002)中的一级A排放标准(GB18918-2002)(TP<0.50 mg/L)。     

原位水解生成的羟基氧化铁凝聚吸附除磷效能与机制

将不同摩尔比Fe3＋与OH-（[Fe3＋]：[OH-]=1：0、1：1、1：2和1：3）反应获得原位水解生成的羟基氧化铁（insituFeOxHy）,研究了具有不同水解程度的羟基氧化铁对凝聚吸附除磷效能与机制。研究显示,InsituFeOxHy对磷的去除率随铁投量增大而升高,且均在中性pH范围内具有最佳除磷效果;在相同铁投量条件下,磷去除率随着[OH-]：[Fe3＋]的升高而降低;当体系碱度较低时（pH〈6）,引入OH-可促进Fe3＋水解而提高除磷效果。4种羟基氧化铁均可在15s内可快速吸附磷,且吸附过程符合准二级动力学模型;Freundlich模型均可很好地描述磷在4种羟基氧化铁表面的吸附行为。磷酸盐吸附后,InsituFeOxHy表面Zeta电位明显降低,且[Fe3＋]：[OH-]为1：0的羟基氧化铁降低最为显著。结合MINITEQ计算软件磷酸盐、铁盐形态分析结果显示,对于碱度较低的体系,通过投加一定量OH-可促进Fe3＋水解,进而使得其更易与水中H2PO4-与HPO2 4-结合,生成具有多核羟基的磷酸铁络合物,进而提高除磷效果。

Chloroaromatic pollutants in mussels incubated in two finnish watercourses polluted by industry

Concentrations of different chlorinated compounds were measured in mussels incubated in two polluted watercourses, a river (the River Kymijoki) and a lake (Lake Vanaja) for four weeks in summer 1995. The sum concentrations of polychlorinated phenols (PCP) and biphenyls (PCB) were both about 1 μg/g lipid weight (lw) in Lake Vanaja mussels, while in the River Kymijoki mussels PCPs were non-detectable and PCBs were measured 120 ng/g lIw. The concentrations of toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and dibenzofuran (PCDF) congeners ranged between <17 and 370 pg/g Iw in Lake Vanaja mussels and between <38 and 11,000 pg/g lw in the River Kymijoki mussels. Polychlorinated diphenyl ethers (PCDE) were detected in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki (0.4–1.1 ng/g Iw), but not in those incubated in Lake Vanaja. Polychlorinated phenoxyanisoles (PCPA) were measured 33 ng/g lw and polychlorinated phenoxyphenols (PCPP) 300 ng/g lw in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki. PCPAs were also detected in reference samples, which were sediment and pike from the River Kymijoki and Baltic salmon, seal and white-tailed sea eagle.     

Evaluation of trichloroethene recovery processes in heterogeneous aquifer cells flushed with biodegradable surfactants

The ability of two biodegradable surfactants, polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) and sodium dihexyl sulfosuccinate (Aerosol MA), to recover a representative dense non-aqueous-phase liquid (DNAPL), trichloroethene (TCE), from heterogeneous porous media was evaluated through a combination of batch and aquifer cell experiments. An aqueous solution containing 3.3% Aerosol MA, 8% 2-propanol and 6 g/l CaCl(2) yielded a weight solubilization ratio (WSR) of 1.21 g TCE/g surfactant, with a corresponding liquid-liquid interfacial tension (IFT) of 0.19 dyn/cm. Flushing of aquifer cells containing a TCE-DNAPL source zone with approximately two pore volumes of the AMA formulation resulted in substantial (>30%) mobilization of TCE-DNAPL. However, a TCE mass recovery of 81% was achieved when the aqueous-phase flow rate was sufficient to displace the mobile TCE-DNAPL toward the effluent well. Aqueous solutions of Tween 80 exhibited a greater capacity to solubilize TCE (WSR=1.74 g TCE/g surfactant) and exerted markedly less reduction in IFT (10.4 dyn/cm). These data contradict an accepted empirical correlation used to estimate IFT values from solubilization capacity, and indicate a unique capacity of T80 to form concentrated TCE emulsions. Flushing of aquifer cells with less than 2.5 pore volumes of a 4% T80 solution achieved TCE mass recoveries ranging from 66 to 85%, with only slight TCE-DNAPL mobilization (<5%) occurring when the total trapping number exceeded 2 x 10(-5). These findings demonstrate the ability of Tween 80 and Aerosol MA solutions to efficiently recover TCE from a heterogeneous DNAPL source zone, and the utility of the total trapping number as a design parameter for a priori prediction of DNAPL mobilization and bank angle formation when flushing with low-IFT solutions. Given their potential to stimulate microbial reductive dechlorination at low concentrations, these surfactants are well-suited for remedial action plans that couple aggressive mass removal followed by enhanced bioremediation to treat chlorinated solvent source zones.

The variation of street air levels of PAH and other mutagenic PAC in relation to regulations of traffic emissions and the impact of atmospheric processes

The occurrence of particle associated PAH and other mutagenic PAC was determined in 1996 in the street air of Copenhagen. In addition, particle extracts were tested for mutagenicity. The measurements were compared with previous measurements in 1992/1993. The levels had decreased in this period. The decrease was caused by an implementation of light diesel fuels for buses and the exchange of older petrol-driven passenger cars with catalystequipped new ones. About 65% of the reduction was caused by the application of the light diesel fuels. Under special conditions, chemical processes in the atmosphere produced many more mutagens than the direct emissions. The concentrations of S-PAC and N-PAC were 10 times lower than those of PAH, while the levels of oxy-PAH were in the same order of magnitude as those of PAH. Benzanthrone, an oxy-PAH, is proposed to be formed in the atmosphere in addition to direct emissions. Benzo(a)pyrene, often applied as an air quality criteria indicator, was photochemically degraded in the atmosphere. A strong increase in the mutagenic activities was observed to coincide with a depletion of benzo(a)pyrene.     

Organochlorine compounds in a three-step terrestrial food chain

The concentrations of 15 organochlorine chemicals (PCBs and pesticides) were studied in a Central European oak wood food chain system: Great tit (Parus major), caterpillars (Tortrix viridana, Operophtera brumata, Erannis defoliaria), and oak-leaves (Quercus robur). Juvenile tits receive organochlorines from the mother via egg transfer and, eventually to a greater extent, from the caterpillar food source during nestling period. The concentrations of PCB 153 (2,2′,4,4′,5,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl, the most abundant in this study) was found in leaf material at ca. 1 ng/g, in caterpillars 10 ng/g, and in bird eggs 170 ng/g on an average and on a dry mass basis.     

The chemical stability of formulations of some hydrolyzable insecticides in aqueous mixtures with hydrolysis catalysts

Abstract

The active ingredients in commercial formulations of malathion, oxamyl, carbaryl, diazinon, and chlorpyrifos diluted to “spray tank”; concentrations with buffered distilled or natural water of pH 4–9 were stable for at least 24 hr. Formulations of trichlorfon were not stable at pH 7 or above but disappearance rates were slower than for the pure chemical in homogeneous solution. Cupric ion was observed to be an effective catalyst for the hydrolysis of a variety of pure organophosphorus insecticides but did not catalyze hydrolysis of the active ingredients of the formulations examined. Increasing the dilution of the formulation increased the susceptibility of malathion, oxamyl, and carbaryl to hydrolysis.     

Observations on the influence of water and soil pH on the persistence of insecticides

Abstract

The pH‐disappearance rate profiles were determined at ca. 25°C for 24 insecticides at 4 or 5 pH values over the range 4.5 to 8.0 in sterile phosphate buffers prepared in water‐ethanol (99: 1 v/v). Half‐lives measured at pH 8 were generally smaller than at lower pH values. Changes in half lives between pH 8.0 and 4.5 were largest (>1000x) for the aryl carbamates, carbofuran and carbaryl, the oxime carbamate, oxamyl, and the organophosphorus insecticide, trichlorfon. In contrast, half lives of phorate, terbufos, heptachlor, fensulfothion and aldicarb were affected only slightly by pH changes. Under the experimental conditions described half lives at pH8 varied from 1–2 days for trichlorfon and oxamyl to >1 year for fensulfothion and cyper‐methrin. Insecticide persistence on alumina (acid, neutral and basic), mineral soils amended with aluminum sulfate or calcium hydroxide to different pH values and four natural soils of different pH was examined. No correlation was observed between the measured pH of these solids and the rate of disappearance of selected insecticides applied to them. These observations demonstrate the difficulty of extrapolating the pH dependent disappearance behaviour observed in homogeneous solution to partially solid heterogeneous systems such as soil.
