超声波对污泥中SCFAs释放影响及作用效应研究

以剩余污泥为研究对象,考察了超声波处理过程中超声时间及声能密度对污泥中短链脂肪酸SCFAs释放的影响及其作用效应。实验结果表明,污泥中SCFAs的释放量随超声时间和声能密度的提高而提高,但当超声能量>270 J/mg MLSS后, SCFAs释放变缓甚至下降;在相同能耗下,长超声时间、低声能密度的超声波处理条件更有利于污泥SCFAs的释放,超声时间影响更显著;污泥中释放的SCFAs以乙酸及丙酸为主。在超声波释放剩余污泥SCFAs过程中自由基效应及热效应皆不显著,机械效应起最主要作用。     

壳聚糖改性红壤去除铜绿微囊藻

研究了聚合氯化铝铁和壳聚糖改性对高岭土、海泡石和红壤去除水中铜绿微囊藻效果的影响。结果表明,壳聚糖改性的红壤对铜绿微囊藻的去除效果最好,其生成絮体密实度大,抗扰动能力强。当改性红壤的投加量为50 mg/L时,叶绿素a和铜绿微囊藻去除率分别达到98.0%、95.1%。该絮凝剂适应性好,在pH为3.0~6.0的范围内对铜绿微囊藻均可取得很好的去除效果,对叶绿素a和浊度的去除率可达90%以上。壳聚糖通过包裹红壤颗粒,借助壳聚糖的粘结架桥和电中和能力,大幅度提高了红壤的絮凝性能。该絮凝剂处理富藻水,具有絮凝效果明显、絮体密实度大、投加量少、绿色环保、经济等优点,在工程上具有较大的实用价值。     

Spectral Characterization of Four Kinds of Biodegradable Plastics: Poly (Lactic Acid), Poly (Butylenes Adipate-Co-Terephthalate), Poly (Hydroxybutyrate-Co-Hydroxyvalerate) and Poly (Butylenes Succinate) with FTIR and Raman Spectroscopy

Fourier transform infrared microscope and confocal Raman spectroscope were employed in this study to investigate four kinds of biodegradable plastics: poly(lactic acid),poly(butylenes adipate-co-terephthalate), poly(butylenes succinate) and poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate), which are used more and more popularly in everyday life but can not be identified easily with other instruments. Infrared and Raman spectra of the plastics were tentatively interpreted. The indicative peaks to characterize the four polymers were also summarized. The result in this study can help the forensic scientists discriminate the plastics accurately when they occurred as trace evidences in cases, it also offers the producer and environment scientists an effective, non-invasive and fast method to characterize and identify these four polymers.     

细菌SOD对微生物紫外光辐射损伤的恢复作用

将培养至对数中期的大肠杆菌、钝齿棒杆菌和啤酒酵母等３种微生物的细胞适度稀释液，分别涂布于培养皿上使受紫外光照射，在细胞受辐射后死亡率大于９０％时停止照射，立即加入一定剂量的细菌超氧化物岐化酶（ＳＯＤ），以观察ＳＯＤ对微生物活力的恢复效应．结果表明，ＳＯＤ可使受辐照的细胞存活率显著提高，且量效关系明显，而照前添加ＳＯＤ则无上述效应．检测表明，紫外光照射可引发细菌的超弱发光，且该种超弱发光可因氧气的充入而瞬间增强，鲁米诺也能增强这种超弱发光，加入甘露醇对发光无影响．当紫外光照射后加入ＳＯＤ能使发光强度大为减弱，表明此种超弱发光与的活动有关，并对ＳＯＤ拮抗紫外线杀菌的机理作了讨论．

Sensitivity analysis of North American bird population estimates

The Partners in Flight North American Landbird Conservation Plan provided estimates of population sizes for 448 landbird species using a multiplicative model. Input parameters in this calculation included the area of state × Bird Conservation Region polygons, area-specific mean Breeding Bird Survey counts circa 1995, and adjustment factors for the distance over which species may presumably be correctly counted, the assumed pairing of singing males with non-singing females, and variability in the propensity of birds to sing over the course of the survey day. I assessed the sensitivity of this population calculation to changes in the input parameters. I assessed both local and global sensitivity of the model to changes in the parameters with Monte Carlo one-at-a-time simulations and the Fourier amplitude sensitivity test (FAST). Monte Carlo simulations were an estimate of local model sensitivity whereas FAST estimated global model sensitivity, accommodating the potential shared variance between model parameters. Monte Carlo simulations suggested population estimates were 39% more sensitive to changes in the detection distance adjustment than to the other parameters; the other parameters were nearly equal in their contribution to model sensitivity. Conversely, FAST analysis determined that each of the input variables aside from the pair adjustment provided roughly equal contributions to variability in population estimates. The most efficient means for improving continental population estimates for birds surveyed by the Breeding Bird Survey will be through increased scrutiny of the species-specific distance detection and time-of-day adjustments and improved understanding in the spatial and temporal variability in the mean Breeding Bird Survey count.     

Environmentally friendly production of thiobencarb (Bolero)

S-Alkyl thiocarbamates are commercially available and widely used for their herbicidal properties. Despite the numerous methods for synthesizing these compounds, most employ toxic reagents that are harmful to the environment. Within we report a novel efficient one-pot process for the formation of thiobencarb employing readily available reagents. This method makes use of a trichloroacetyl chloride adduct and requires no complex starting materials. Furthermore, this process is efficient, proceeds in high yields, and utilizes several recyclable reagents.     

锌对增强玉米耐涝抗渍的作用及其机理初探

在缺锌的砂姜黑土上研究锌对玉米增产效应的田间试验中发现，在严重渍涝高温时，锌有显著的增强玉米耐涝抗渍的作用。其机理与锌能明显降低植株体内氮磷含量，提高钾素含量，从而增强玉米的抗渍涝与高温的能力有关。统计结果表明，玉米秸杆中氮磷含量占整株氮磷含量的百分数与死亡率呈显著的正相关，而秸杆中的含钾量与死亡率呈一定的负相关。     

Young driver risk in relation to parents' retrospective driving record

PROBLEM: Parents are an important potential influence on the driving safety of their children. This study examined the relationship of parental driving record on male and female offspring's at-fault collision risk. METHOD: Drivers aged 16-21 on the date of full licensure were selected from driver records and a matching process was used to identify putative parents in two-parent households. Poisson regression models were developed to predict at-fault collisions of male and female youth in the three years following full licensure from parents' at-fault collisions, speeding offenses, and other moving offenses in the four years prior to children's licensure. One set of models examined the relative risk associated with increasing numbers of maternal and paternal at-fault collisions and offenses. Other models examined the joint versus separate maternal and parental contributions. RESULTS: Controlling for region of residence, both mothers' and fathers' at-fault collisions were associated with an increased risk in both male and female youth at-fault collisions. Mothers' and fathers' speeding offenses were also associated with increased relative risk of at-fault collisions for both sons and daughters, while fathers' other moving offenses increased collision risk for sons but not daughters. DISCUSSION: Further research is required to identify how parental driving risk is transmitted to children. IMPACT ON INDUSTRY: (a) Parents of young children should be informed of their role in influencing their children's future driving risk; (b) The results identify risk factors that could be of interest to licensing authorities and the insurance industry.
