TiO2/膨润土复合材料对Hg2+的吸附性能研究

利用纳米TiO_2对膨润土进行复合改性,制备TiO_2/膨润土复合材料.采用电镜扫描、X-射线衍射表征改性前后膨润土的结构和形貌.通过室内模拟实验,以膨润土为对照,研究不同添加量、pH、吸附时间及初始Hg~(2+)浓度等条件下,TiO_2/膨润土复合材料对Hg~(2+)的吸附特性与性能,同时通过正交试验,探究TiO_2/膨润土复合材料吸附Hg~(2+)的最优条件.结果表明,改性后的膨润土颗粒明显变小,且颗粒疏松多空孔,层间距增大.相比于膨润土,TiO_2/膨润土复合材料吸附性能得到极大提高.TiO_2/膨润土复合材料对Hg~(2+)的吸附率均随着添加量、pH、吸附时间的增大而增大,添加量为1.5 g·L~(-1)、pH为7.0、吸附时间为120 min时,吸附率达98.0%以上.但TiO_2/膨润土复合材料对Hg~(2+)的吸附率随着初始Hg~(2+)浓度的增大而减小.通过4种动力学模型拟合发现,吸附过程符合假二级动力学方程,吸附以化学吸附为主.吸附等温线更符合Langmuir等温方程,属于典型的单分子层吸附,最大吸附量为20.66 mg·g-1.吸附Hg~(2+)的最优实验条件:添加量为2.0 g·L~(-1),pH为8.0,初始Hg~(2+)浓度为45 mg·L~(-1),吸附时间为16 h,此时吸附率99.9%,平衡浓度为0.034 mg·L~(-1).     

5.12汶川地震后理县甘堡乡磨子沟泥石流特征分析

磨子沟泥石流位于四川省理县甘堡乡,历史上泥石流活动明显,沟口317国道和村庄都曾遭受其破坏。5.12汶川地震后,沟内出现大量松散固体物质,为泥石流的暴发提供了充足的物源。本文通过野外实地调查,对泥石流的形成条件和动力学特征进行分析。     

Effect of reclaimed water effluent on bacterial community structure in the Typha angustifolia L. rhizosphere soil of urbanized riverside wetland, China

In order to evaluate the impact of reclaimed water on the ecology of bacterial communities in the Typha angustifolia L. rhizosphere soil,bacterial community structure was investigated using a combination of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism and 16S rRNA gene clone library. The results revealed significant spatial variation of bacterial communities along the river from upstream and downstream. For example,a higher relative abundance of γ-Proteobacteria,Firmicutes,Chloroflexi and a lower proportion ofβ-Proteobacteria and ε-Proteobacteria was detected at the downstream site compared to the upstream site. Additionally,with an increase of the reclaimed water interference intensity,the rhizosphere bacterial community showed a decrease in taxon richness,evenness and diversity. The relative abundance of bacteria closely related to the resistant of heavy-metal was markedly increased,while the bacteria related for carbon/nitrogen/phosphorus/sulfur cycling wasn't strikingly changed. Besides that,the pathogenic bacteria markedly increased in the downstream rhizosphere soil since reclaimed water supplement,while the possible plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria obviously reduced in the downstream sediment.Together these data suggest cause and effect between reclaimed water input into the wetland,shift in bacterial communities through habitat change,and alteration of capacity for biogeochemical cycling of contaminants.

Feedforward control for nitrogen removal in a pilot-scale anaerobic-anoxic-oxic plant for municipal wastewater treatment

To improve the efficiency of nitrogen removal with lower energy consumption, the study of feedforward control was carried out on a pilot-scale anaerobic-anoxicoxic (AAO) plant for the treatment of municipal wastewater. The effluent qualities of the pilot plant under different control strategies were investigated. The results indicated that the change of external recycle was not a suitable approach to regulate the sludge concentration of plug-flow reactors; adjusting the aeration valve and dissolved oxygen set-point according to ammonia load could overcome the impact of influent fluctuation; and the denitrification potential could be estimated based on the transit time of anoxic zone and the relative content of carbon resource entering the anoxic zone. Simple feedforward control strategies for aeration and internal recycle were subsequently proposed and validated. The nitrogen removal was successfully improved in the pilot plant. The effluent total nitrogen had decreased by 29.9% and was steadily controlled below 15 mg·L⁻¹. Furthermore, approximately 38% of the energy for aeration had been saved.

Advances in the treatment of multi-pollutant flue gas in China's building materials industry

In most of the world's building material industries, the control of flue gas pollutants mainly focuses on a single pollutant. However, given the large capacity and high contribution of China's building materials industry to global air pollution, the need to develop multi-pollutant emission reduction technology is urgent. Recently, China has focused on reducing the emissions of flue gas pollutants in the building materials industry, established many key research and development projects, and gradually implemented more stringent pollutant emission limits. This project focuses on the most recent advances in flue gas emission control technology in China's building materials industry, including denitration, dust removal, desulfurization, synergistic multi-pollutant emission reduction, and the construction of pilot research and demonstration projects for pollutant removal in several building material industries. On this basis, revised pollutant limits in flue gas emitted in China's building material industry are proposed.
