Numerical simulation of alga growth and control in Dalian Bay

WAHMO model was used to simulate the distribution of pollutants in Dalian Bay, China as to predict well as the growth and control of alga. The observed and predicted values of main pollutants showed a good trend at all study locations and the different between them can be ignored. Simulation results illustrated that phosphate was one of limited factors to control algal growth at the location near the sewage outfall, meanwhile, away from the sewage outfall, the synergy of ammonium nitrogen and phosphate was the limited factor.     

Characterization of typical taste and odor compounds formed by Microcystis aeruginosa

Production and characteristics of typical taste and odor (T&O) compounds by Microcystis aeruginosa were investigated. A few terpenoid chemicals, including 2-MIB, β-cyclocitral, and β-ionone, and a few sulfur compounds, such as dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl trisulfide, were detected. β-Cyclocitral and β-carotene concentrations were observed to be relevant to the growth phases of Microcystis. During the stable growth phase, 41-865 fg/cell of β-cyclocitral were found in the laboratory culture. β-Cyclocitral concentrations correlated closely with β-carotene concentrations, with the correlation coefficient R2 = 0.96, as it is formed from the cleavage reaction of β-carotene. For dead cell cases, a high concentration of dimethyl trisulfide was detected at 3.48-6.37 fg/cell. Four T&O compounds, including β-cyclocitral, β-ionone, heptanal and dimethyl trisulfide, were tested and found to be able to inhibit and damage Microcystis cells to varying degrees. Among these chemicals, β-cyclocitral has the strongest ability to quickly rupture cells.     

Soil microbial community structure and function responses to successive planting of Eucalyptus

Many studies have shown soil degradation after the conversion of native forests to exotic Eucalyptus plantations. However, few studies have investigated the long-term impacts of short-rotation forestry practices on soil microorganisms. The impacts of Eucalyptus successive rotations on soil microbial communities were evaluated by comparing phospholipid fatty acid （PLFA） abundances, compositions, and enzyme activities of native Pinus massoniana plantations and adjacent 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation Eucalyptus plantations. The conversion from P. massoniana to Eucalyptus plantations significantly decreased soil microbial community size and enzyme activities, and increased microbial physiological stress. However, the PLFA abundances formed ＂U＂ shaped quadratic functions with Eucalyptus plantation age. Alternatively, physiological stress biomarkers, the ratios of monounsaturated to saturated fatty acid and Gram＋ to Gram- bacteria, formed ＂∩＂ shaped quadratic functions, and the ratio of cy17：0 to 16： 1ω7c decreased with plantation age. The activities of phenol oxidase, peroxidase, and acid phosphatase increased with Eucalyptus plantation age, while the cellobiobydrolase activity formed ＂U＂ shaped quadratic functions. Soil N：P, alkaline hydrolytic nitrogen, soil organic carbon, and understory cover largely explained the variation in PLFA profiles while soil N：P, alkaline hydrolytic nitrogen, and understory cover explained most of the variability in enzyme activity. In conclusion, soil microbial structure and function under Eucalyptus plantations were strongly impacted by plantation age. Most of the changes could be explained by altered soil resource availability and understory cover associated with successive planting of Eucalyptus. Our results highlight the importance of plantation age for assessing the impacts of plantation conversion as well as the importance of reducing disturbance for plantation management.     

活化温度对SCAC制备过程中副产物生成规律的影响

文章研究了污泥-玉米芯活性炭(SCAC)制备过程中,活化温度对副产物(热解气和热解油)生成规律的影响。热解气和热解油分别采用气相色谱仪和气质联用仪进行分析检测。试验结果表明,随着活化温度的升高,SCAC的产量逐渐降低,热解气与热解油的产量则随之增多。不同温度条件下,热解气的主要成分均为H2和CO2,热解气中H2所占的体积百分数随着活化温度的升高而增加,而CO2则相应降低。此外,热解气中CH4的含量也会随着活化温度的上升而略有提高,说明较高的活化温度更有利于热解气的资源利用。热解油组分较为复杂,每个温度条件下的液态产物都包括上百种化合物,可分为烷烃,烯烃,苯类,酚类,腈类,杂环化合物,多环芳烃,有机酸,酰胺,酯类,甾体,醇,酮以及其他类共14大类型,其中以有机酸、腈类和甾体类有机物含量居多。随着活化温度的升高,有机酸和多环芳烃的含量有所增加,而酚类化合物的含量则有所降低;当活化温度升高至650℃以上时,甾体类有机物含量明显降低。     

潜流人工湿地处理农村生活污水动力学研究

考察潜流人工湿地处理农村生活污水的运行效果,并探寻一级动力学常数的空间变化情况,采用"厌氧调节池+二级串联潜流式人工湿地"工艺处理农村生活污水。结果表明,经过3个月运行后人工湿地对污水中COD、TP、TN和NH3-N的去除率分别达到了79.13%,71.54%,57.26%和60.01%。通过湿地原位检测显示以上各类污染物在生物床内都有较明显的沿程下降趋势,在床体的前半部分污染物的降解较快,后半部分相对缓慢。农村生活污水中污染物去除动力学符合一级动力学模型,一级生物床中COD、TP、TN和NH3-N的去除,Kv均值分别为3.048、2.469、1.625和1.695;二级生物床中Kv均值分别为2.542、1.946、1.383和1.453。生物床Kv呈现出减小的趋势说明生物床前端对各类污染物的降解速率比后端快。生物床间的跌水池的复氧,增加了二级生物床前端的Kv,提高了对污染物的降解速率。     

基于单颗粒质谱信息气溶胶分类方法的研究进展

气溶胶质谱仪在对气溶胶颗粒的监测过程中会产生大量单颗粒的化学成分和粒径信息,基于这些质谱数据能够推测颗粒的来源。而对气溶胶来源的分析,很大程度上是由颗粒的种类决定的,故对海量数据的分类就成为不可忽略的步骤。针对气溶胶质谱仪采集到的数据,概述了用于气溶胶分类的多种方法的理论核心、分类步骤及各自的优缺点等。据此可为今后气溶胶分类方法的研究提供建设性意见。     

铬(Ⅵ)土著还原菌筛选及初步鉴定实验研究

以重铬酸钾为供试物,用固体平板法和还原实验对铬(Ⅵ)土著还原菌进行筛选,用载片培养法、革兰氏染色法、鞭毛染色法、芽孢染色法对还原菌做初步的鉴定,共筛选出16株铬(Ⅵ)土著还原菌,并挑选出还原率相对较高的Z2(35.2%)、Z3(45.2%)、Z4(38.6%)、X8(30.4%)、X10(29.4%)作为铬(Ⅵ)的优势还原菌株。经初步鉴定,土著真菌Z2为黑曲霉(Aspergillusniger),Z3、Z4为镰刀菌属(Fusariumsp.),土著细菌X8、X10为芽孢杆菌(Bacillussp.)。实验的方法和成果将为铬(Ⅵ)污染土壤微生物治理技术的推广应用提供技术支持。

曝气生物滤池去除邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯的效果

采用陶粒滤料曝气生物滤池(BAF)处理邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯(BBP)模拟废水,考察了空床接触时间(EBCT)、温度对BBP的去除效果的影响;运用气质联用仪(GC-MS)分析了BBP在曝气生物滤池内降解的中间产物并推测其可能的降解途径。结果表明,当温度为25℃,空床接触时间(EBCT)为8 h时,BAF对BBP的降解效果良好,去除率达到95.7%;BAF对BBP的去除率随着温度的升高和EBCT的增加而增大,EBCT为去除效果的主要影响因素。BAF出水中检测到邻苯二甲酸二丁酯(DBP)、邻苯二甲酸二甲酯(DMP)以及邻苯二甲酸(PA)等降解产物,据此推测邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯的生物降解途径可能为BBP的苯环先断裂生成邻苯二甲酸二丁酯,而后断裂一个酯键形成单酯,接着再断裂另一酯键形成邻苯二甲酸,最终分解成二氧化碳和水。
