Concentrations and classification of HCHs and DDTs in soil from the lower reaches of the Jiulong River, China

Soil is an important source to other environmental media and organisms for organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) bioaccumulation. Twenty-four representative surface soil samples were collected from the lower reaches of the Jiulong River, China, in 2009. The concentrations of hexachlorocyclohexane isomers (HCHs) ranged from 0.38 to 39.52 ng·g^?1, with a mean value of 9.51 ng·g^?1. The concentrations of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes (DDTs) and their metabolites were within the ranges of 0.94–700.99 ng·g^?1, with a mean value of 71.17 ng·g^?1. The concentrations of HCHs and DDTs in the soil were lower than the first grade level (50 ng·g^?1) of the Chinese Environmental Quality Standard (GB15618-1995). Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) and Pearson’s bivariate Correlations Analysis (PCA) were used to analyse the distribution and contamination levels of OCPs in this region. The results showed that DDTs were the major contaminants and there were no significant correlations between various OCPs concentrations and the total organic carbon (TOC) contents. A significant positive correlation was observed between HCHs and DDTs (p<0.01), which indicates that HCHs and DDTs may have similar sources and fate in the study area.

1998—2000年的研究结果表明,千岛湖的富营养化进程明显加速。千岛湖上游安徽境内输入的大量营养盐、周边地区的生态环境变化、农田地表径流及水土流失是引起湖水水体质量变化的主要原因。控制上游安徽境内的入湖水质、减少农业面源污染和水土流失对水体的影响、恢复与重建湖滨植被保护带、改善整个周边地区的生态环境等是保护千岛湖生态环境的主要对策。     

Characterization of the archaeal community fouling a membrane bioreactor

Biofilmformation, one of the primary causes of biofouling, results in reducedmembrane flux or increased transmembrane pressure and thus represents a major impediment to the wider implementation of membrane bioreactor (MBR) technologies for water purification. Most studies have focused on the role of bacteria in membrane fouling as they are the most dominant and best studied organisms present in the MBR. In contrast, there is limited information on the role of the archaeal community in biofilm formation in MBRs. This study investigated the composition of the archaeal community during the process of biofouling in an MBR. The archaeal community was observed to have lower richness and diversity in the biofilmthan the sludge during the establishment of biofilms at low transmembrane pressure (TMP). Clustering of the communities based on the Bray-Curtis similarity matrix indicated that a subset of the sludge archaeal community formed the initial biofilms. The archaeal community in the biofilm was mainly composed of Thermoprotei, Thermoplasmata, Thermococci, Methanopyri, Methanomicrobia and Halobacteria. Among them, the Thermoprotei and Thermoplasmata were present at higher relative proportions in the biofilms than they were in the sludge. Additionally, the Thermoprotei, Thermoplasmata and Thermococci were the dominant organisms detected in the initial biofilms at low TMP, while as the TMP increased, the Methanopyri, Methanomicrobia, Aciduliprofundum and Halobacteria were present at higher abundances in the biofilms at high TMP.     

放电等离子体降解三氯乙烯

采用2种放电方式和2种反应器对三氯乙烯进行降解,脉冲放电和交流放电均对三氯乙烯有较好的降解效果,且电压越高降解率越大.对脉冲放电,当气体停留时间为15s、三氯乙烯初始浓度1350mg/m³、电压42kV时空腔式反应器对三氯乙烯的降解率接近100%;对交流放电,使用32kV的电压可使降解率达98%,且频率越高降解效果越好.与脉冲放电相比,交流放电的功率消耗量大、能量利用率低,且填充式反应器的能量利用率也低于空腔式反应器.对于空腔式反应器,三氯乙烯降解率达80%时所需的脉冲和交流放电能量消耗分别为4.9W·h/m³和116W·h/m³.
