Operational characteristics of effective removal of H2S and NH3 waste gases by activated carbon biofilter

Simultaneous removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) gases from gaseous streams was studied in a biofilter packed with granule activated carbon. Extensive studies, including the effects of carbon (C) source on the growth of inoculated microorganisms and gas removal efficiency, product analysis, bioaerosol emission, pressure drop, and cost evaluation, were conducted. The results indicated that molasses was a potential C source for inoculated cell growth that resulted in removal efficiencies of 99.5% for H2S and 99.2% for NH3. Microbial community observation by scanning electron microscopy indicated that granule activated carbon was an excellent support for microorganism attachment for long-term waste gas treatment. No disintegration or breakdown of biofilm was found when the system was operated for 140 days. The low bioaerosol concentration emitted from the biofilter showed that the system effectively avoided the environmental risk of bioaerosol emission. Also, the system is suitable to apply in the field because of its low pressure drop and treatment cost. Because NH3 gas was mainly converted to organic nitrogen, and H2S gas was converted to elemental sulfur, no acidification or alkalinity phenomena were found because of the metabolite products. Thus, the results of this study demonstrate that the biofilter is a feasible bioreactor in the removal of waste gases.

Characterization of metal adsorption kinetic properties in batch and fixed-bed reactors

Copper adsorption kinetic properties in batch and fixed-bed reactors were studied in this paper. The isothermal adsorption experiments showed that the copper adsorption capacity of a granular activated carbon (Filtrasorb 200) increased when ionic strength was higher. The presence of EDTA diminished the adsorption. An intraparticle diffusion model and a fixed-bed model were successfully used to describe the batch kinetic and fixed-bed operation behaviors. The kinetics became faster when the solution pH was not controlled, implying that the surface precipitation caused some metal uptake. The external mass transfer coefficient, the diffusivity and the dispersion coefficient were obtained from the modeling. It was found that both external mass transfer and dispersion coefficients increased when the flow rate was higher. Finally effects of kinetic parameters on simulation of fixed-bed operation were conducted.     

仲钨酸铵生产中钨渣的污染特性分析

采集了14家仲钨酸铵（APT）生产企业生产过程中产生的钨渣,分别采用HJ/T299—2007《固体废物 浸出毒性浸出方法 硫酸硝酸法》和GB 5085.3—2007《危险废物鉴别标准 浸出毒性鉴别》附录S推荐的方法分析了钨渣中重金属的浓度及浸出浓度,并研究了钨渣的污染特征。结果表明,钨渣中重金属浓度服从正态分布,浓度较高的重金属为Cu、Zn和类金属As,其最大值分别为6 260、25 000和26 900 mg/kg,平均值分别为3 510、4 560和5 640 mg/kg;浸出浓度较大的是Pb、As和Hg,其最大值分别为33.6、26.2和0.85 mg/L,超出GB 5085.3—2007中规定的相应限值的6.72、5.24和8.5倍,超标率分别为14.3%、21.4%和42.9%;钨渣中As、Mo和Hg是特征污染物,应作为危险废物进行管理。     

两相均流板对弯管中气固两相运动分布特征的影响

针对燃煤电厂烟气污染物脱除系统设备入口弯管内的气固两相分布不均的问题,提出一种两相均流板,采用CFD数值模拟的方法对比分析了安装两相均流板与常规导流装置的弯道内气流速度分布、颗粒质量浓度分布以及弯管进出口压差变化特征。结果表明：在弯管内安装两相均流板较安装导流板/三角翼挡板更优,既可以使气固两相均匀分布又可以有效降低系统的压阻,克服了常规均流装置气固两相均流效果不佳、阻力大等缺点,在较低的压阻下解决燃煤电厂烟气污染物脱除系统入口气固两相混合不均匀的问题,有效提高污染物脱除效率。

NiFe2O4/ZnAl-LDH吸附去除水中Cr(VI)

采用共沉淀法合成磁性复合材料NiFe2O4/ZnAl-LDH,通过静态吸附试验考察复合材料去除水中Cr（VI）的性能,系统地研究了溶液初始pH值、吸附剂投加量、吸附时间和温度等因素对Cr（VI）去除效果的影响。结果表明,当溶液初始pH值为2、初始Cr（VI）浓度为50 mg·L-1、吸附剂投加量为4 g·L-1时,吸附过程在240 min内达到平衡,此时Cr（VI）的去除率为89.5%。动力学和吸附等温式的研究表明：NiFe2O4/ZnAl-LDH吸附Cr（VI）的过程符合准二级动力学和Langmuir等温吸附模型。热力学参数表明该吸附过程为自发、放热的反应过程,低温有利于吸附剂对Cr（VI）的吸附。吸附剂经4次再生后对Cr（VI）仍有83.1%的去除率,且其在外加磁场的作用下能快速与水溶液分离,因此NiFe2O4/ZnAl-LDH可作为去除水中Cr（VI）的良好吸附剂。
