包裹碎石群桩动应力响应振动台模型试验研究∗

开展了包裹碎石群桩复合地基振动台模型试验,分析了包裹碎石桩轴向动应力及桩土之间水平剪切应力的响应特性。结果表明：地震波作用下,包裹碎石桩轴向动应力沿桩身向下迅速衰减。在地震作用过程中,包裹碎石桩上部承受的水平应力较大。某一地震作用下,取包裹碎石桩桩顶水平应力时程曲线的最大值,发现该值随输入地震加速度波峰值(0.1g~0.4g)的增大先增大,之后随输入加速度波峰值(0.6g、0.9g)的增大而减小,这表明桩顶的剪切强度降低了。     

Low-temperature caproate production,microbial diversity,and metabolic pathway in xylose anaerobic fermentation

● Converting xylose to caproate under a low temperature of 20 °C by MCF was verified. ● Final concentration of caproate from xylose in a batch reactor reached 1.6 g/L. ● Changing the substrate to ethanol did not notably increase the caproate production. ● Four genera, including Bifidobacterium , were revealed as caproate producers. ● The FAB pathway and incomplete RBO pathway were revealed via metagenomic analysis. Mixed culture fermentation (MCF) is challenged by the unqualified activity of enriched bacteria and unwanted methane dissolution under low temperatures. In this work, caproate production from xylose was investigated by MCF at a low temperature (20 °C). The results showed that a 9 d long hydraulic retention time (HRT) in a continuously stirred tank reactor was necessary for caproate production (~0.3 g/L, equal to 0.6 g COD/L) from xylose (10 g/L). The caproate concentration in the batch mode was further increased to 1.6 g/L. However, changing the substrate to ethanol did not promote caproate production, resulting in ~1.0 g/L after 45 d of operation. Four genera, Bifidobacterium, Caproiciproducens, Actinomyces, and Clostridium_sensu_stricto_12, were identified as the enriched caproate-producing bacteria. The enzymes in the fatty acid biosynthesis (FAB) pathway for caproate production were identified via metagenomic analysis. The enzymes for the conversion of (C_n+2)-2,3-Dehydroxyacyl-CoA to (C_n+2)-Acyl-CoA (i.e., EC 1.3.1.8 and EC 1.3.1.38) in the reverse β-oxidation (RBO) pathway were not identified. These results could extend the understanding of low-temperature caproate production.     

Highly efficient and selective removal of phosphate from wastewater of sea cucumber aquaculture for microalgae culture using a new adsorption-membrane separation-coordinated strategy

● A new adsorption-membrane separation strategy is used for phosphate removal. ● PVC/Zr-BT shows a selective adsorption ability to low-concentration phosphate. ● Low concentration of P below 0.05 mg/L was achieved in actual wastewater treatment. ● Algal biomass production served as a demonstration of phosphorus recycling. Enhanced phosphorus treatment and recovery has been continuously pursued due to the stringent wastewater discharge regulations and a phosphate supply shortage. Here, a new adsorption-membrane separation strategy was developed for rational reutilization of phosphate from sea cucumber aquaculture wastewater using a Zr-modified-bentonite filled polyvinyl chloride membrane. The as-obtained polyvinyl chloride/Zr-modified-bentonite membrane was highly permeability (940 L/(m²·h)), 1–2 times higher than those reported in other studies, and its adsorption capacity was high (20.6 mg/g) when the phosphate concentration in water was low (5 mg/L). It remained stable under various conditions, such as different pH, initial phosphate concentrations, and the presence of different ions after 24 h of adsorption in a cross-flow filtration system. The total phosphorus and phosphate removal rate reached 91.5% and 95.9%, respectively, after the membrane was used to treat sea cucumber aquaculture wastewater for 24 h and no other water quality parameters had been changed. After the purification process, the utilization of the membrane as a new source of phosphorus in the phosphorus-free f/2 medium experiments indicated the high cultivability of economic microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum FACHB-863 and 1.2 times more chlorophyll a was present than in f/2 medium. The biomass and lipid content of the microalgae in the two different media were similar. The innovative polyvinyl chloride/Zr-modified-bentonite membrane used for phosphorus removal and recovery is an important instrument to establish the groundwork for both the treatment of low concentration phosphate from wastewater as well as the reuse of enriched phosphorus in required fields.     

Biological removal of air loaded with a hydrogen sulfide and ammonia mixture

The nuisance impact of air pollutant emissions from wastewater pumping stations is a major issue of concern to China. Hydrogen sulfide and ammonia are commonly the primary odor and are important targets for removal. An alternative control technology, biofiltration, was studied. The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of unit systems packed with compost in terms of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions treatment, and to establish optimal operating conditions for a full-scale conceptual design. The laboratory scale biofilter packed with compost was continuously supplied with hydrogen sulfide and ammonia gas mixtures. A volumetric load of less than 150 gH2S/(m^3.d) and 230 gNH3/(m^3.d) was applied for about fifteen weeks. Hydrogen sulfide and ammonia elimination occurred in the biofilter simultaneously. The removal efficiency, removal capacity and removal kinetics in the biofilter were studied. The hydrogen sulfide removal efficiency reached was very high above 99%, and ammonia removal efficiency was about 80%. Hydrogen sulfide was oxidized into sulphate. The ammonia oxidation products were nitrite and nitrate. Ammonia in the biofilter was mainly removed by adsorption onto the carrier material and by absorption into the water fraction of the carrier material. High percentages of hydrogen sulfide or ammonia were oxidized in the first section of the column. Through kinetics analysis, the presence of ammonia did not hinder the hydrogen sulfide removal. According to the relationship between pressure drop and gas velocity for the biofilter and Reynolds number, non-Darcy flow can be assumed to represent the flow in the medium.

碳交易背景下中国华北地区碳代谢格局变化

碳排放权交易市场作为推进美丽中国建设、实现降碳减污绿色发展的重要手段,成为当前研究的热点问题.为探究碳交易背景下华北地区试点区域及非试点区域碳代谢过程,以城市碳代谢理论为依据,采取投入产出分析和生态网络分析相结合的研究方法.结果表明,北京和天津作为早期交易试点区域,区域从2012年后呈现直接碳排放量稳步下降、隐含碳排放量缓慢增加趋势.试点产业部门直接排放量与隐含排放量变化趋势一致,其中煤炭开采和洗选业、石油和天然气开采业和非金属矿物制品业减排效应明显,而排放量较高的电力、热力的生产和供应业表现为增加趋势.部门隐含碳排放强度与隐含碳排放量变化趋势相似证实部门隐含增加值在交易过程中并未增加.高碳排放部门的隐含碳排放量主要由长度小于6的代谢路径所贡献,因此应重点关注部门间较短路径传递的商品或服务的“清洁化”.在交易政策实施以前,区域产业部门间跨区域贸易较少,表现为低碳排放产品交换;2012年以后,随着京津冀城市群协同发展以及华北地区不断构筑的区域经济发展新格局,促使区域间跨区域和跨部门贸易增加.以碳排放权交易制度为背景,构建识别系统内关键参与者及关键路径的方法体系,可为区域性政策实施及可持续发展提供科学的发展建议.     

大通河流域土壤细菌及氮循环功能菌群沿海拔的空间分布

探究土壤微生物的海拔分布格局及其驱动机制对理解气候变化下陆地生态系统的响应至关重要.土壤微生物群落的海拔分布格局随空间尺度有所差异,为此分别沿大通河流域干流流向（海拔梯度1 000 m）和山体坡面（海拔梯度500 m）设置了两种空间尺度的样带,利用高通量测序技术分析土壤细菌群落结构和多样性沿海拔的分布特征,基于FAPROTAX数据库分析氮循环功能类群的海拔分布,探讨驱动土壤细菌群落沿海拔分布的关键环境因子.结果表明:①土壤理化性质沿海拔分布有显著差异,总氮（TN）和硝态氮（NO₃ ^-）含量与海拔正相关（P < 0.01）,土壤容重（BD）、pH与海拔负相关（P < 0.001）;②细菌群落OTU丰度沿海拔升高显著增大（P < 0.01）,丰富度和多样性指数沿海拔增大,但趋势不显著（P > 0.05）;③细菌群落以酸杆菌门（Acidobacteria）、变形菌门（Proteobacteria）和拟杆菌门（Bacteroidetes）为优势门,其相对丰度随海拔升高分别增加、减小和微弱减小;④参与氮循环的功能类群共13种,以硝化作用、好氧氨氧化和好氧亚硝酸盐氧化作用为主,随海拔升高响应规律不同,其中硝化作用细菌丰度显著增加（P < 0.01）,好氧氨氧化和硝酸还原细菌丰度微弱增加,而参与含氮化合物异化还原的细菌丰度先增后减;⑤冗余分析表明海拔（ELEV）、pH和氨氮（NH₄ ⁺）是驱动门水平土壤细菌群落的主要因子,Mantel分析表明土壤细菌氮循环优势类群均受海拔驱动（P < 0.01）.⑥流域和坡面尺度上细菌群落α-多样性沿海拔的规律一致,但土壤性质、氮循环功能菌群丰度和主要环境影响因子均不同.因此从不同空间尺度探究土壤微生物的海拔分布格局具有重要意义.
