响应面法优化胡敏素对Cu2+的吸附及机理研究

采用Box-Behnken响应面优化实验设计对胡敏素吸附去除水中Cu~(2+)的过程进行了优化,设定吸附时间、吸附剂用量、pH、温度和Cu~(2+)初始浓度为5个影响因素,Cu~(2+)吸附率为响应值,建立了吸附率与上述因素之间的二次多项式模型,确定最佳吸附条件,对吸附过程的等温模型及吸附机理进行了研究.响应面分析表明,吸附剂用量、pH和Cu~(2+)初始浓度是显著因素.胡敏素对Cu~(2+)吸附的最佳条件为:吸附时间110 min、吸附剂用量2.4 g·L~(-1)、pH=5.4、温度25.0℃、Cu~(2+)初始浓度208 mg·L~(-1).在该条件下,测得胡敏素对Cu~(2+)的吸附率可达到80.78%,吸附符合Langmuir等温线方程.胡敏素表面疏松多孔,有利于其通过物理吸附方式吸附Cu~(2+),同时,胡敏素表面的羟基、羧基和羰基等活性基团可以与Cu~(2+)发生配位络合作用,Na+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)等与Cu~(2+)发生离子交换作用,从而发生化学吸附.研究结果表明,胡敏素作为一种绿色、高效、廉价的吸附剂,可应用于Cu~(2+)污染废水的治理.     

喷射时刻对柴油甲醇组合燃烧发动机颗粒物排放的影响

为了进一步减少甲醇掺烧后的柴油机颗粒物排放,在一台由增压中冷的高压共轨柴油机改造成的柴油甲醇组合燃烧(DMCC—diesel/methanol compound combustion)发动机上详细研究了柴油喷射时刻对两种燃料共燃时的颗粒物生成及其排放的影响.试验工况选择重型柴油机常用的A50工况.试验结果表明,当柴油在上止点后喷射时,颗粒物排放的数量浓度随着甲醇替代率的增加而减少,当上止点前喷射时,颗粒物的数量浓度先减少后增加.随着喷射时刻的提前,颗粒中超细颗粒所占比例增大.随着喷射时刻的推迟,甲醇替代率降低颗粒物质量浓度的作用增强,同时甲醇替代率降低颗粒物几何平均直径的作用减弱.     

纳米TiO2添加剂对DMDF发动机大负荷燃烧及PM排放影响的试验研究

在一台电控增压中冷四缸柴油机的进气道上加装一套电控喷射装置,使其运行柴油/甲醇双燃料(DMDF)模式.研究了甲醇中Ti O_2添加剂的添加量及同一添加剂添加量在不同甲醇分散系喷射量时对发动机大负荷工况的燃烧和颗粒物(PM)排放的影响.结果表明,在甲醇中添加适量(30和100 mg·kg~(-1))的纳米Ti O_2能够使爆发压力升高,对燃烧有一定的促进作用,但添加过量(100 mg·kg~(-1))会对燃烧产生不利影响.加入纳米Ti O_2后,干炭烟烟度排放和积聚态颗粒数明显降低,在添加剂添加量为1000 mg·kg~(-1)时,最大降幅分别达到26.8%和29.4%,而核态颗粒物排放变化不大.在相同添加剂添加量下,增加甲醇分散系替代率R_m会使放热始点后移,放热更加集中,爆发压力增大,干炭烟烟度和颗粒物排放均大幅度降低.在添加剂添加量为100 mg·kg~(-1)时,与R_m=10%相比,R_m=40%时爆发压力增加0.94 MPa,放热率峰值增加53.5%,烟度、核态颗粒数、积聚态颗粒数和颗粒物总数的降幅分别达66.9%、42.3%、67.0%和58.0%.

Effect of vegetation type on throughfall deposition and seepage flux

This paper compares different vegetation types (coniferous and deciduous forest, grassed and pure heathland) in terms of input (throughfall deposition) and output (seepage flux) in a region with intermediate nitrogen load (+/-20kg Nha(-1)y(-1) via bulk precipitation) in comparable conditions in north Belgium. Coniferous forest (two plots Pinus sylvestris and two plots Pinus nigra) received significantly higher nitrogen and sulphur throughfall deposition than deciduous forest and heathland. Grassed and pure heathland had significantly highest throughfall quantities of Ca(2+) and Mg(2+), respectively. The observed differences in throughfall deposition between the different vegetation types were not univocally reflected in the ion seepage flux. Considerable seepage fluxes of NO(3)(-), SO(4)(2-), Ca(2+) and Al(III) were only found under the P. nigra plots. We discuss our hypothesis that the P. nigra forests already evolved to a situation of N saturation, while the other vegetation types did not.     

Prediction of Pb speciation in concentrated and dilute nutrient solutions

Despite the presence of numerous studies in the literature examining the phytotoxicity of Pb, there is a lack of precise quantitative data on limiting concentrations of Pb for plant growth. Using the PhreeqcI chemical equilibrium model, simulations were conducted to examine the speciation of Pb in concentrated and dilute nutrient solutions. Due to the higher P concentration of Hoagland's solution (1000microM), precipitation of chloropyromorphite (Pb5(PO4)3Cl) was predicted to occur at lower pH values, and at lower Pb concentrations, than for a dilute nutrient solution (2microM P). Although nutrient solutions prepared in the glasshouse were supersaturated (and Pb concentrations were substantially higher than predicted by modeling), they confirmed the importance of the P concentration in influencing the precipitation of Pb. Given the low solubility of Pb-phosphates, nutrient solutions with low P concentrations should be utilized, and plant growth should be related to measured Pb concentrations rather than to the quantity of Pb initially added.     

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.     

Mercury biomethylation assessment in the estuary of Bilbao (North of Spain)

The relationship between the microbial methylation of mercury and the microbial activities in sediments and water collected from the estuary of Bilbao (North of Spain) was studied in three different sampling points and in two different seasons. Three different cultures were prepared with a sediment slurry to distinguish between biotic and abiotic methylation pathways and the variations of the methylmercury concentration and the variations of the population of total number of bacteria (TDC), anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria (AHB), sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and Desulfovibrio were measured. From this work, it can be concluded that the variation of MeHg concentrations is a result of the methylation/demethylation processes in the sediments, and that the abiotic processes have a negligible contribution to those processes. According to the statistical analysis of the results (partial least squares analysis) a significant statistical correlation was established between methylmercury and the SRB counts.
