Effect of Cross-Linking Waste Protein with Diepoxides on its Biodegradation under Anaerobic Conditions

Biodegradability testing was performed in an aqueous environment under anaerobic conditions after inoculation with digested sludge from municipal wastewater treatment plant. In cross-linking with 1,2:3,4-diepoxybutane in limits 0.8–9.1% weight, biodegradability degree decreased from 76.8 to 62.2%; when 1,2:7,8 diepoxyoctane in quantities 1.1–13.2% weight was used, biodegradability degree dropped more prominently – from 72.3 to 22.8%. There is obviously a direct connection between growing cross-link degree (assessed by so-called fixation index) and decreasing readiness to biodegradation, apparently owing to build-up of a network forming an obstacle to access of micro-organisms and enzymes.     

基于遗传算法的可持续土地利用动态规划

在建立和求解多目标可持续土地利用动态规划模型过程中,采用遗传算法并结合多目标模糊优选理论处理多目标土地利用结构优化问题。其详细步骤为：在分析区域特征基础上构建时间序列;通过现状分析设置土地利用类型决策变量,确定优化目标和约束条件,构建土地利用结构多目标优化模型;用灰色GM(1,1)预测模型对土地利用结构优化多目标模型参数进行预测;用遗传算法多目标优化方法对土地利用结构优化模型求解得pareto解集;最后运用多目标模糊优选动态规划方法对规划期内各时间段的pareto解集进行模糊动态优选,以最大优属度判定原则确定出最优决策序列。自贡市的实例表明,该方法有助于解决多目标协调问题,并通过提供多方案选择性,从而使规划更具灵活性,同时又便于充分吸纳公众参与,减少规划中的不确定性,增加规划的科学性、现实性和可操作性。     

西藏昌都地区土地利用结构熵值时序分析

研究土地利用结构的变化反映了区域发展和人类活动的强度,是研究区域发展结构的核心内容之一。区域土地利用结构的变化是区域土地利用演变的直接体现,信息熵可以作为土地利用结构有序性的一种度量。借助信息熵理论对藏东地区1992~2004年土地利用结构熵进行了计算与分析,分析结果表明：研究区土地利用结构熵2004年较1992年有所增加,但是增长幅度较小,与全国和西部地区土地利用信息熵水平相比,藏东地区土地利用系统结构熵值较低,有序度较高。土地利用结构变化和地方政策因素是导致昌都地区土地利用结构熵值变化的直接动因,经济发展、人口增长等对土地系统熵值的时序变化也存在影响。信息熵理论反映某区域系统宏观尺度上的土地利用结构特征,对区域土地利用结构的调整有一定的指导和借鉴意义。该理论在区域土地利用结构分析中的应用研究有待进一步深入。     

A directional passive air sampler for monitoring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air mass

A passive air sampler was developed for collecting polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air mass from various directions. The airflow velocity within the sampler was assessed for its responses to ambient wind speed and direction. The sampler was examined for trapped particles, evaluated quantitatively for influence of airflow velocity and temperature on PAH uptake, examined for PAH uptake kinetics, calibrated against active sampling, and finally tested in the field. The airflow volume passing the sampler was linearly proportional to ambient wind speed and sensitive to wind direction. The uptake rate for an individual PAH was a function of airflow velocity, temperature and the octanol-air partitioning coefficient of the PAH. For all PAHs with more than two rings, the passive sampler operated in a linear uptake phase for three weeks. Different PAH concentrations were obtained in air masses from different directions in the field test.     

构建煤炭企业负责人培训考核长效机制研究

针对我国煤矿普遍存在的规模差异较大、生产条件复杂、煤炭企业负责人文化素质和专业素质都相对较差的实际情况,对我国现在实施的培训和发证的相关政策和措施进行了分析和研究;指出现行的培训考核机制对煤炭企业负责人能力和水平的差异缺乏针对性,对煤炭企业可持续发展对管理人才的知识结构需求缺乏系统性,对煤矿企业主要负责人的综合素质的提高缺乏强制性;提出了现行开展的对煤炭企业负责人的培训考核机制应该结合煤矿矿长安全培训、矿长资格培训和煤炭职业经理人培训所提出的综合素质要求,结合地区和企业的煤炭行业的实际和发展需要,实行统筹规划、分段培训、分级考核和发证,以构建符合我国实际的培训考核长效机制;并按照这一设想进行了长期的探索和实践,取得了一些可以借鉴的经验和成果。     

Occurrence of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli genes in raw water of water treatment plants

Purpose

The high incidences of waterborne diseases are frequently associated with diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC). DEC may pose a health risk to people who contact surface water for recreation or domestic use. However, there is no published report on the monitoring of DEC in drinking water sources in Taiwan. In this study, the occurrence of DEC genes in raw water for water treatment plants in Taiwan was investigated.

Method

Raw water samples were taken from water treatment plants adjacent to the Kaoping River in southern Taiwan. Each water sample was treated with membrane filtration followed by DNA extraction from the concentrate and concentrate enrichment, respectively. The target genes for various DEC strains of genes were identified, including enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC), enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), and enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC).

Results

Among 55 water samples analyzed, DEC genes were detected in 16 (29.1%) samples. Strain-specific genes for EAEC, EHEC, EIEC, and EPEC were found in the percentages of 3.6%, 10.9%, 9.1%, and 9.1%, respectively. The specific gene for ETEC is not detected in the study. By looking at the presence/absence of specific genes and water sample characteristics, water temperature was found to differ significantly between samples with and without EHEC gene. In addition, pH levels differed significantly for EHEC and EPEC presence/absence genes, and turbidity was significantly different for water with and without EPEC genes.

Conclusion

DEC genes were detected in 29.1% of the raw water samples in the study location. The potential health threat may be increased if the treatment efficiencies are not properly maintained. Routine monitoring of DEC in drinking water sources should be considered.

电化学方法现场产生H2O2的影响因素及其废水处理应用

建立了以石墨碳棒为阴极,Pt为阳极,饱和甘汞电极为参比电极,Na2SO4为支持电解质溶液的H2O2制备三电极体系。对电流密度、pH值、通氧流量、支持电解质浓度和极间距等主要参数对生成H2O2的影响进行了单因素轮换试验研究,并采用正交试验方法对这些因素进行了分析。结果发现,pH值对生成H2O2的影响最为显著,支持电解质浓度和通氧流量也具有较大影响,极间距影响不明显,电流密度则存在着最佳值。通过试验获得的最优参数组合为:pH=2.00,电流密度=1.02mA·cm-2,通氧流量=0.4L·min-1,支持电解质浓度=0.1mol·L-1,极间距=6cm。在该参数组合条件下,采用电-Fenton法对活性染料RedMX-5B进行脱色和矿化试验,初始Fe2 投量为0.25mmol·L-1,电解180min,脱色率可达90%以上,但矿化率不高(<25%)。因此,提高矿化率是染料废水处理在未来的主要课题。
