Characterization of phenol degradation by high-efficiency binary mixed culture

Background, aim, and scope  

Two new high phenol-degrading strains, Micrococcus sp. and Alcaligenes faecalis JH 1013, were isolated. The two isolates could grow aerobically in mineral salts medium containing phenol as a sole carbon source at concentration of 3,000 mg L⁻¹. It was found that the binary mixed culture of the two isolates possessed good potential for phenol removal.     

Fe（Ⅱ）EDTA／H2O2电催化降解甲基橙模拟废水的研究

在无隔膜电解槽中,采用SPR（Ru—Ir—TiO2）为阳极,石墨为阴极,考察了Fe（Ⅱ）EDTA／H2O2电催化降解甲基橙（methylorange）模拟废水的影响,发现EDTA很大程度上促进了类电Fenton试剂对甲基橙模拟废水的降解。实验研究表明,在外加电压为5．0V,EDTA：Fe2＋=2：1（摩尔比,Fe2＋=40mmol／L）,H202=48mmot／L,电解质Na2SO4=40mmol／L,废水pH值为（6．5±0．1）的条件下,降解260mg／L的甲基橙模拟废水90min,EDTA的加入可以使甲基橙模拟废水的脱色率由29．5％上升到78．4％,COD由571．429mg／L降至80mg／L,COD的降解率为86％,EDTA在此过程中既是催化剂又是反应物,可有效避免EDTA带来二次环境污染的可能性。     

Anthropogenic magnetic particles and heavy metals in the road dust: Magnetic identification and its implications

Magnetic properties of road dusts in the East Lake area in Wuhan, China, were measured and compared with the results of heavy metal analyses in order to delineate the sources of pollutants. A total of ninety-seven dust samples were collected spatially from four segments with different traffic density and field settings from the roads encircling the lake. Thermomagnetic and hysteresis measurements revealed that the dominant magnetic carrier is coarse-grained magnetite. Correlations between magnetic parameters and element concentrations with traffic density and distances to the industrial region revealed that elements Cu, Ni and Fe mainly originate from vehicle traffic, which is also the major source of coarser magnetic particles (e.g., pseudo-single-domain/multi-domain (PSD/MD) grains), while element Pb and the smaller grains such as single-domain (SD) magnetic particles mainly originate from industrial emissions. The ratio between anhysteretic remanent magnetization and low-field magnetic susceptibility (ARM/χ_lf) can be employed as an indirect indicator for Cu, Fe and Ni emissions resulting from vehicle traffic. Due to the intermixture of elements from different sources, the element concentrations are not conclusive about the pollution source. A linear correlation between magnetic concentration-related parameters (e.g., ARM and saturation isothermal remanent magnetization, SIRM) and the concentrations of major elements (e.g., Cu, Co, Fe, Mn, Ni and V) suggests that they can be used as a proxy for heavy metal pollution. Road dusts in four segments show different magnetic characteristics, indicating various influxes of anthropogenic magnetic materials from vehicle traffic and industrial plants due to the different traffic loads and field settings. These results suggest that magnetic measurements can serve as an efficient complementary tool for the routinely employed geochemical methods to map the heavy metal pollution and trace the sources of pollutants in the road dust.     

胶团强化超滤中表面活性剂结构差异对苯酚增溶性能的影响研究

在胶团强化超滤(MEUF)技术处理有机物废水中,采用多因素正交实验研究了3种不同类型的阳离子型表面活性剂,即疏水链长度相同,而亲水基头不同;亲水基头相同,而疏水链长度不同的表面活性剂,分析基团差异对于苯酚增溶的影响。结果表明,十六烷基氯化吡啶(CPC)对于苯酚的去除效果最好,其次是十八烷基三甲基溴化铵(OTAB),最后是十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)。综合去除效果和经济性两方面考虑,在单因素超滤实验中选择OTAB来重点研究表面活性剂浓度和电解质浓度两个操作参数对于苯酚增溶的影响。     

pH值对霞湾港沉积物重金属Zn、Cu释放的影响

以霞湾港(铜霞路段)的底泥沉积物为研究对象,采用重金属连续浸提法对重金属Zn、Cu在沉积物中的5种形态进行浸提,分析了其分布特征和在不同pH值与时间的条件下重金属的释放规律。研究结果表明,重金属Zn主要以铁锰氧化物结合态和碳酸盐结合态的形态存在,Cu主要以有机结合态和残渣态的形态存在,可交换离子态的重金属含量都很低。重金属Zn、Cu从沉积物中的释放,主要是在酸性条件下发生,在酸性区内释放量随pH的升高而迅速降低。释放能力和释放速率均为ZnCu,它们释放的过程基本相似,释放速率都比较小,向环境中的释放是个长期过程。     

生物脱氮除磷活性污泥系统复合模拟方法

为避免繁琐的参数校核工作,提出了活性污泥2 d号模型(ASM2d)和人工神经网络(ANNs)相结合的复合模拟方法。考察了复合方法在某污水处理厂生物脱氮除磷工艺中的应用情况。研究表明,ANNs能够准确地模拟出水实测值与未经校核的ASM2d机理模型的估计值之间的差值。利用Levenberg-Marquardt算法,对出水氨氮、总氮和总磷分别建立网络结构为5-12-1、5-8-1和5-8-1的ANNs子模型,将这些子模型输出同ASM2d机理模型输出相加便得到复合模型输出。复合模型估计值对前10.4 d(ANNs子模型训练数据时段)出水氨氮、总氮和总磷浓度的拟合平均绝对百分比误差分别为0.267、0.055和0.048;其对后2.6 d(ANNs子模型测试数据时段)出水氨氮、总氮和总磷浓度的预测平均绝对百分比误差分别为0.332、0.083和0.069。均方根误差、平均绝对误差等评价指标也表明复合模型能够给出合理的模拟结果。

Phosphorus recovery from fosfomycin pharmaceutical wastewater by wet air oxidation and phosphate crystallization

Fosfomycin pharmaceutical wastewater contains highly concentrated and refractory antibiotic organic phosphorus (OP) compounds. Wet air oxidation (WAO)-phosphate crystallization process was developed and applied to fosfomycin pharmaceutical wastewater pretreatment and phosphorus recovery. Firstly, WAO was used to transform concentrated and refractory OP substances into inorganic phosphate (IP). At 200 °C, 1.0 MPa and pH 11.2, 99% total OP (TOP) was transformed into IP and 58% COD was reduced. Subsequently, the WAO effluent was subjected to phosphate crystallization process for phosphorus recovery. At Ca/P molar ratio 2.0:1.0 or Mg/N/P molar ratio 1.1:1.0:1.0, 99.9% phosphate removal and recovery were obtained and the recovered products were proven to be hydroxyapatite and struvite, respectively. After WAO-phosphate crystallization, the BOD/COD ratio of the wastewater increased from 0 to more than 0.5, which was suitable for biological treatment. The WAO-phosphate crystallization process was proven to be an effective method for phosphorus recovery and for fosfomycin pharmaceutical wastewater pretreatment.
