Influence of regional development policies and clean technology adoption on future air pollution exposure

Future air pollution emissions in the year 2030 were estimated for the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) in central California using a combined system of land use, mobile, off-road, stationary, area, and biogenic emissions models. Four scenarios were developed that use different assumptions about the density of development and level of investment in transportation infrastructure to accommodate the expected doubling of the SJV population in the next 20 years. Scenario 1 reflects current land-use patterns and infrastructure while scenario 2 encouraged compact urban footprints including redevelopment of existing urban centers and investments in transit. Scenario 3 allowed sprawling development in the SJV with reduced population density in existing urban centers and construction of all planned freeways. Scenario 4 followed currently adopted land use and transportation plans for the SJV. The air quality resulting from these urban development scenarios was evaluated using meteorology from a winter stagnation event that occurred on December 15th, 2000 to January 7th 2001. Predicted base-case PM2.5 mass concentrations within the region exceeded 35 μg m^?3 over the 22-day episode. Compact growth reduced the PM2.5 concentrations by ～1 μg m^?3 relative to the base-case over most of the SJV with the exception of increases (～1 μg m^?3) in urban centers driven by increased concentrations of elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC). Low-density development increased the PM2.5 concentrations by 1–4 μg m^?3 over most of the region, with decreases (0.5–2 μg m^?3) around urban areas. Population-weighted average PM2.5 concentrations were very similar for all development scenarios ranging between 16 and 17.4 μg m^?3. Exposure to primary PM components such as EC and OC increased 10–15% for high density development scenarios and decreased by 11–19% for low-density scenarios. Patterns for secondary PM components such as nitrate and ammonium ion were almost exactly reversed, with a 10% increase under low-density development and a 5% decrease under high density development. The increased human exposure to primary pollutants such as EC and OC could be predicted using a simplified analysis of population-weighted primary emissions. Regional planning agencies should develop thresholds of population-weighted primary emissions exposure to guide the development of growth plans. This metric will allow them to actively reduce the potential negative impacts of compact growth while preserving the benefits.     

Medium optimization for the production of anti-cyanobacterial substances by Streptomyces sp. HJC-D1 using response surface methodology

Bioremediation using isolated anti-cyanobacterial microorganism has been widely applied in harmful algal blooms (HABs) control. In order to improve the secretion of activated anti-cyanobacterial substances, and lower the cost, a sequential optimization of the culture medium based on statistical design was employed for enhancing the anti-cyanobacterial substances production and chlorophyll a (Chl a) removal by Streptomyces sp. HJC-D1 in the paper. Sucrose and KNO₃ were selected as the most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources based on the one-at-a-time strategy method, and sucrose, KNO₃ and initial pH were found as major factors that affected the anti-cyanobacterial ability of the isolated stain via the Plackett–Burman design. Based on the response surface and canonical analysis, the optimum condition of culture medium was obtained at 22.73 g l^-1 of sucrose, 0.96 g l^-1 of KNO₃, and initial pH 8.82, and the Chl a removal efficiency by strain HJC-D1 increased from 63?±?2 % to 78?±?2 % on the optimum conditions.     

臭氧氧化6-APA制药厂生化处理出水的特性及动力学简

通过现场实验研究了6-APA制药厂生化处理出水的臭氧氧化特性及其动力学规律。结果表明,当臭氧浓度为27.5 mg/L,气水接触时间为80 min时,COD、UV₂₅₄、NH₃-N和色度的去除率分别可达72.95%、73.28%、72%和96.25%,达到《发酵类制药废水工业水污染物排放标准》（GB 21903-2008）排放控制要求。拟合结果表明,在0~10、10~30和30~90 min时段内,臭氧氧化过程遵循拟一级反应,但反应速率逐渐降低。当气水接触时间为30 min时,废水可生化性可由0.1提高至0.35,采用臭氧/生物处理的联合工艺也有望使出水达到相同的排放控制要求。     

碳酸根对磷酸钙沉淀反应回收磷的影响简

以模拟的厌氧消化液为处理对象,通过小试实验,考察不同初始磷浓度C_P、Ca/P物质的量比、pH和温度下,碳酸根（CO₃^2-）对磷酸钙沉淀反应回收磷的影响;利用扫描电镜（SEM）、X射线衍射仪（XRD）和傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）对沉淀产物进行表征。结果表明,高浓度的CO₃^2-对以磷酸钙沉淀反应去除和回收磷的效率影响较大;C_P相同时,CO₃^2-浓度（C_CO3^2-）越大,P的去除率越低,低C_P（20 mg/L）时尤为显著;当C_CO3^2-相同时,随着C_P的增大,反应速率加快,P的去除率逐渐升高,但升高幅度越来越小;增大Ca/P比和pH能提高P的去除率,降低CO₃^2-对磷酸钙沉淀反应的抑制作用,综合考虑实际效果,应选择Ca/P比为3.33,pH为9.0作为适宜的反应条件;升高温度对降低CO₃^2-对磷酸钙沉淀反应的抑制作用贡献不大。在C_P为60 mg/L,Ca/P比为1.67,pH为9.0,温度为20℃的条件下,当C _CO3^2-为0时,得到的沉淀产物主要为羟基磷灰石HAP;当C _CO3^2-为30 mmol/L时,得到的沉淀产物为磷酸钙和碳酸合磷灰石的混合物。
