北方滨海人工湿地水生生物群落重建效果评估——以天津临港湿地二期生态重建工程为例

为准确评估滨海人工湿地生态重建成效,科学指导工程改进方案,以重建近1年的天津临港湿地二期生态重建工程为例,通过调查重建前(2020年)和重建后(2021年)湿地水生生物群落组成变化,评价湿地生物群落重建效果。结果表明：经过近1年的生态重建,鱼类群落和底栖动物群落均得到不同程度恢复;鱼类的种类由重建前的未检出增加到10种,除泥鳅、梭鱼等增殖先锋物种未得以恢复外,其他增殖鱼类均长势良好;随着物理生境改善和先锋物种的直接投加,底栖动物数量由重建前的11种提高到重建后的28种,生物多样性明显提高;在类群组成上,底栖动物群落以自然恢复的摇蚊幼虫为主,人工投放的大型底栖物种恢复进程相对缓慢;鱼类增殖放流加剧了对浮游动物的捕食压力,造成浮游动物生物量降低和个体减小,进而导致浮游植物群落的快速响应和结构变化。基于上述研究结果,提出了水生生物群落重建优化调控建议。本研究成果可为北方滨海人工湿地重建提供借鉴。

Does regional energy consumption disparities assist to control environmental degradation in OBOR: an entropy approach

China launched the One Belt & One Road (OBOR) initiative to minimize the energy resource shortage. The China’s nearby countries are rich in energy resources especially Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and Asian countries which make them ideal locations to cooperate with China in terms of energy resources, as 42.8% of world energy consumption belongs to OBOR countries. The present study elaborates the spatial distribution pattern of energy consumption disparities and its impact on environment. To do this, an entropy approach is utilized to compute the energy consumption inequalities in OBOR and its regions. The spatial and Pareto analysis show that MENA, East, and Southeast Asian economies have the highest degree of energy consumption inequalities, while European and Central Asian economies show the lowest energy consumption inequalities in OBOR region. The long-run estimates indicate that energy consumption inequalities enhance the CO₂ emission in OBOR and its region except South and Southeast Asia. Financial development also has a significantly positive impact on CO₂ emission in all models for OBOR and its regions except East Asia. Based on findings, the spatial distribution analysis is applicable to maintain balance in regional energy consumption inequality within OBOR and its regions.

     

Plume analysis from field evaluations of a portable air quality monitoring system

ABSTRACT

Near-road measurements in Rochester, NY with a Portable Air Quality Monitoring System indicate a significant plume control of PM_2.5 black carbon (BC) concentrations. This study evaluates the performance of two portable air quality enclosures deployed at collocated research sites to determine their accuracy and usefulness in field deployments, and specifically in pollution plume analysis. One system deployed collocated sensors for measurement of particulate matter mass concentration (Thermo pDR 1500 against Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) measurement) and the second system deployed sensors for measurement of black carbon (Magee AE33 aethalometer and Brechtel Tricolor Absorption Photometer) in ambient and near-road locations in Rochester, New York, respectively. While the optical PM_2.5 sensors tended to be biased in their determination of concentration by ~15%, they followed changes and trends in concentration very well. The black carbon sensors in the portable systems agreed very well with each other and with the collocated sensor. As a case study to determine the contribution from statistically significant short-lived excursions of pollutant concentration, Morlet wavelet analysis was performed on data from the portable system sensors. Black carbon was found to be strongly influenced by plume behavior with significant plume excursions representing just over 12% of all data points and contributing on average 1 µg/m³ of black carbon above ambient concentrations.

Implications: This paper first evaluates two air pollutant monitoring enclosures with wide applicability including near-road detection of pollutants. Then, we present a novel method to designate isolate statistically significant excursions in air pollution concentration which can be used to determine the impact of pollutant plumes as observed in PM and black carbon behavior near road.     

超声-碱破解剩余污泥的条件优化

剩余污泥水解是实现污泥减量化和解决污水处理厂生物脱氮除磷中碳源不足的重要途径。以浓缩池污泥为对象,通过正交实验对超声-碱联合处理条件进行优化,考察了污泥破解率、上清液C/N与C/P的变化,并进行经济性分析。结果表明,对污泥破解率、上清液C/N、C/P影响最大的3个因素分别为pH、声能密度、pH。综合考虑3者,得到最佳操作条件为,声能密度=1.5 W·mL⁻¹、超声时间=15 min、pH=10、碱处理时间=1.5 h,在此条件下,污泥VSS去除率可达35％左右,可以减少污泥处置的成本。上清液SCOD>7 600 mg·L⁻¹、C/N>30、C/P>60,可以制备高碳低氮磷的污泥上清液回流,在大规模应用中比外加碳源的方式要节约成本。本研究结果可为超声-碱破解污泥的实际工程提供参考。     

Insight into the dynamic microbial community and core bacteria in composting from different sources by advanced bioinformatics methods

Microbial communities are important for high composting efficiency and good quality composts. This study was conducted to compare the changes of physicochemical and bacterial characteristics in composting from different raw materials, including chicken manure (CM), duck manure (DM), sheep manure (SM), food waste (FW), and vegetable waste (VW). The role and interactions of core bacteria and their contribution to maturity in diverse composts were analyzed by advanced bioinformatics methods combined sequencing with co-occurrence network and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results indicated that there were obviously different bacterial composition and diversity in composting from diverse sources. FW had a low pH and different physiochemical characteristics compared to other composts but they all achieved similar maturity products. Redundancy analysis suggested total organic carbon, phosphorus, and temperature governed the composition of microbial species but key factors were different in diverse composts. Network analysis showed completely different interactions of core bacterial community from diverse composts but Thermobifida was the ubiquitous core bacteria in composting bacterial network. Sphaerobacter and Lactobacillus as core genus were presented in the starting mesophilic and thermophilic phases of composting from manure (CM, DM, SM) and municipal solid waste (FW, VW), respectively. SEM indicated core bacteria had the positive, direct, and the biggest (>?80%) effects on composting maturity. Therefore, this study presents theoretical basis to identify and enhance the core bacteria for improving full-scale composting efficiency facing more and more organic wastes.

关于制定地下水修复目标上限值 (风险管制值) 的建议

修复目标值是评判场地修复是否合格以及修复后地块能否安全利用的唯一标准,因此制定合理的修复目标值对于污染场地修复治理和安全利用起着至关重要的作用。大部分污染场地需要同时进行土壤和地下水修复,生态环境部发布了《建设用地土壤污染修复目标值制定指南 (试行) 》,然而地下水修复目标值制定的指南标准尚未发布。少数项目制定的地下水修复目标值过于宽松,无法保障地块的风险可控和安全利用。因此,建议借鉴土壤环境管理的思路,制定一个类似于“土壤管制值”的“地下水修复目标上限值 (风险管制值) ”。该值的制定不能只基于风险评估计算的结果,而应充分考虑每种污染物各自的理化性质、迁移转化归趋机制、环境赋存特征、健康和环境风险、国外同类标准的取值、检测方法的准确度和成本、经济社会承受能力等因素,力争做到合规合法、科学严谨、综合平衡。     

DSF型群体感应系统的缺失导致嗜根寡养单胞菌溶藻作用的增强

水环境中的微藻与藻际微生物之间关系复杂多变,而微生物的群体感应 (QS) 作用会影响并调控菌藻的共生关系。以嗜根寡养单胞菌 (Stenotrophomonas rhizophila) 野生株 (WT) 和QS扩散信号因子 (DSF) 合成酶基因- rpfF基因敲除株 (△rpfF) 为实验菌株,阐明DSF型群体感应是否调控嗜根寡养单胞菌对铜绿微囊藻的溶藻效果。结果表明：嗜根寡养单胞菌野生株和rpfF基因敲除株的溶藻特性相似,均具有针对铜绿微囊藻的溶藻特异性,主要通过分泌溶藻物质间接作用于藻细胞;野生株和敲除株培养48 h后的无菌滤液均有显著的溶藻作用,在投加体积分数10%无菌滤液的条件下,野生株和敲除株7 d溶藻率分别为53%和78%。此外,实验菌株分泌的溶藻活性物质具有热稳定性和酸碱耐受性,且不容易被乙醇沉淀;三维荧光光谱、紫外可见光光谱、傅里叶变换红外光光谱分析表明菌株胞外滤液中主要以类腐殖酸物质为主,芳香化程度较高;通过比较荧光强度和吸光度可知DSF合成酶基因缺失的嗜根寡养单胞菌的无菌滤液中类腐殖酸物质含量显著高于野生株。结果表明,DSF-QS缺失的嗜根寡养单胞菌生物量增多,能分泌更多的溶藻物质,增强了嗜根寡养单胞菌的溶藻作用。本研究拓宽了对菌藻互作的认识,有助于更好地理解溶藻菌对有害藻华的抑制机制,同时为以微生物菌剂治理水华的技术体系提供参考。
