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.

温度对离子液体支撑膜捕集CO2的影响

传统CO2的捕集方法存在设备投资大、环境污染严重、再生能耗高等缺点,利用新型绿色工质离子液体负载于聚偏氟乙烯上制备离子液体支撑膜可以较好地解决该问题。在压力为0.2 MPa、流量为50 mL·min-1、温度在298~318 K范围内变化时,测定了CO2在1-乙基-3甲基咪唑双三氟磺酰亚胺盐（[Emim][Tf2N]）和1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑醋酸盐（[Emim][AC]）2种离子液体支撑膜中的渗透系数、溶解度和扩散系数,采用Van’t Hoff方程对溶解度数据进行关联、Arrhenius方程对渗透和扩散系数的数据进行关联。实验结果表明,CO2在2种离子液体支撑膜中的渗透和扩散系数随着温度的升高而增大,溶解度随着温度的升高而降低。[Emim][Tf2N]离子液体支撑膜对CO2的捕集性能优于[Emim][AC]支撑膜,CO2在[Emim][Tf2N]支撑膜中的溶解度最大值为0.447,在[Emim][AC]离子液体支撑膜中的最大溶解度为0.253,由此可确定离子液体支撑膜分离CO2的最佳工作温度,为其在工业应用中奠定良好的基础。     

暂存库填埋调质污泥的压缩与固结特性

污泥暂存库区面临减量增容的严峻问题。由于暂存库中的污泥已经发生了较大程度的降解,其固结性质与新鲜污泥相比已发生了较大的变化,可直接影响到原位处理效果,故选用FeCl_3和芬顿试剂对上海某污泥暂存库区的长期填埋污泥进行了调质改性,并对调质后污泥的固结压缩特性进行了研究。结果表明:经药剂调质后污泥的排水固结时间大大缩短,在初始低固结应力水平时压缩量较大,在后期高固结应力水平下沉降量较小;在初始低固结应力水平下,调质污泥的固结系数在10~(-3) cm~2·s~(-1)数量级范围内变化;添加FeCl_3的实验组对应的C_(v,max)=2.91×10~3 cm~2·s~(-1),芬顿调质实验组对应的C_(v,max)=9.88×10~(-3) cm~2·s~(-1)。渗透系数受固结应力影响较大,当FeCl_3的掺量为40%时,初级固结应力下样品的渗透系数k=4.439×10~(-6) cm·s~(-1);在400 kPa固结应力作用下,渗透系数减小为3.796×10~(-8) cm·s~(-1);经芬顿试剂调质的污泥在初级固结应力下,渗透系数k=6.48×10~(-6) cm·s~(-1);在400 kPa下,渗透系数k=9.94×10~(-8) cm·s~(-1)。以上结果对现场污泥真空固结法处理有一定的指导意义。     

Evaluation of the technoeconomic feasibility of electrochemical hydrogen peroxide production for decentralized water treatment

• Gas diffusion electrode (GDE) is a suitable setup for practical water treatment. • Electrochemical H₂O₂ production is an economically competitive technology. • High current efficiency of H₂O₂ production was obtained with GDE at 5–400 mA/cm². • GDE maintained high stability for H₂O₂ production for ~1000 h. • Electro-generation of H₂O₂ enhances ibuprofen removal in an E-peroxone process. This study evaluated the feasibility of electrochemical hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) production with gas diffusion electrode (GDE) for decentralized water treatment. Carbon black-polytetrafluoroethylene GDEs were prepared and tested in a continuous flow electrochemical cell for H₂O₂ production from oxygen reduction. Results showed that because of the effective oxygen transfer in GDEs, the electrode maintained high apparent current efficiencies (ACEs,>80%) for H₂O₂ production over a wide current density range of 5–400 mA/cm², and H₂O₂ production rates as high as ~202 mg/h/cm² could be obtained. Long-term stability test showed that the GDE maintained high ACEs (>85%) and low energy consumption (<10 kWh/kg H₂O₂) for H₂O₂ production for 42 d (~1000 h). However, the ACEs then decreased to ~70% in the following 4 days because water flooding of GDE pores considerably impeded oxygen transport at the late stage of the trial. Based on an electrode lifetime of 46 days, the overall cost for H₂O₂ production was estimated to be ~0.88 $/kg H₂O₂, including an electricity cost of 0.61 $/kg and an electrode capital cost of 0.27 $/kg. With a 9 cm² GDE and 40 mA/cm² current density, ~2–4 mg/L of H₂O₂ could be produced on site for the electro-peroxone treatment of a 1.2 m³/d groundwater flow, which considerably enhanced ibuprofen abatement compared with ozonation alone (~43%–59% vs. 7%). These findings suggest that electrochemical H₂O₂ production with GDEs holds great promise for the development of compact treatment technologies for decentralized water treatment at a household and community level.

长江中下游浅水湖泊沉积物中磷的形态及其与水相磷的关系

研究了长江中下游22个不同生态类型的浅水湖泊表层沉积物中磷的地球化学形态及水相磷含量等水质特征.对沉积物中磷形态的连续提取分析发现,自然粒度下,绝大部分湖泊的沉积物中90%以上的磷是以生物较难利用的形态存在的,活性磷所占比例很小.而在严重污染的城市湖泊中,活性磷含量则可以占到总磷的35%以上.沉积物中活性磷含量的高低与总磷含量并不一致.水草的存在对水相磷含量及沉积物中磷的活性都有显著的影响.水相磷的含量与沉积物中交换态磷的含量、沉积物铁磷比有显著的相关关系.研究表明,沉积物地球化学性质、水体营养盐含量及浅水湖泊生态类型之间存在复杂而密切的联系.
