不同温度下异波折板反应器处理生活污水的研究

本实验采用64．8L的厌氧异波折流板反应器处理生活污水,研究了低温对异波折流板反应器运行效能的影响。结果表明,温度从30℃降至20℃反应器运行15d达到稳定后,COD去除率仅从83．6％T降至76．9％。各隔室的VFA浓度均有所上升,前面隔室升幅较大,比甲烷活性略有下降;当温度从20℃下降至10℃时,产氢产乙酸茵和产甲烷菌等受到较大影响,在反应器运行达到稳定后COD去除率从76．9％T降至45％-55％,出水水质受影响较大,比甲烷活性下降幅度较大。     

Spectroscopic studies of dye-surfactant interactions with the co-existence of heavy metal ions for foam fractionation

The interaction between a cationic dye Methylene Blue (MB) and an anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) with the presence of Cd²⁺ was investigated spectrophotometrically in a certain concentration range. The spectrophotometric measurements of dye-metal ion-surfactant system were carried out. The results indicated that the SDS concentration had a significant influence on the dye spectrum, while the addition of Cd²⁺ hardly caused change of the maximum value of absorbance. According to this observation, we concluded that electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction between dye and surfactant occurred up to a certain level, and the homo-ions Cd²⁺ almost exerted no effect on the dye-surfactant complexation, establishing a theoretical foundation for simultaneous removal of organic dye and heavy metal using foam fractionation. Meanwhile, the effects of their interaction on foam performance were investigated. The results showed that the addition of Cd²⁺ favored the tendency to ameliorate foam properties just contrary to MB. The feasibility of foam separation for dye and heavy metal removal from simulated wastewater was also confirmed using a continuous foam fractionator. In the simultaneous removal process, with the initial SDS concentration ranging from 0.5 to 5.0 mmol/L, the maximum removal efficiencies of MB and Cd²⁺ were obtained as 99.69% and 99.61%, respectively. The enrichment ratios were reduced from 24.34 to 7.65 for MB and from 22.01 to 3.35 for Cd²⁺.

Effect of Prescribed Fire on Soil Properties and N Transformation in Two Vegetation Types in South China

Prescribed fire is a common site preparation practice in forest management in southern China. However, the effect of fire on soil properties and N transformations is still poorly understood in this region. In this study, soil properties and N transformations in burned and unburned site of two vegetation types (Eucalyptus plantation and shrubland) were compared in rainy and dry seasons after 2 years’ prescribed fire. Soil pH and soil NH₄-N were all higher in the burned site compared to the unburned control. Furthermore, burned sites had 30–40 % lower of soil total phosphorus than conspecific unburned sites. There was no difference in soil organic matter, total N, soil exchangeable cations, available P or NO₃-N. Nitrogen mineralization rate of 0–5 cm soil in the unburned site ranged from 8.24 to 11.6 mg N kg^?1 soil month^?1 in the rainy season, compared to a lower level of 4.82–5.25 mg N kg^?1 soil month^?1 in the burned sites. In contrast, 0–5 cm layer nitrification rate was overall 2.47 mg N kg^?1 soil month^?1 in the rainy season, and was not significantly affected by burning. The reduced understory vegetation coverage after burning may be responsible for the higher soil NH₄-N in the burned site. This study highlights that a better understanding the effect of prescribed burning on soil nutrients cycling would provide a critical foundation for management decision and be beneficial to afforestation in southern China.     

The major components of particles emitted during recycling of waste printed circuit boards in a typical e-waste workshop of South China

Electronic waste from across the world is dismantled and disposed of in China. The low-tech recycling methods have caused severe air pollution. Air particle samples from a typical workshop of South China engaged in recycling waste printed circuit boards have been analyzed with respect to chemical constituents. This is the first report on the chemical composition of particulate matter (PM) emitted in an e-waste recycling workshop of South China. The results show that the composition of PM from this recycling process was totally different from other emission sources. Organic matter comprised 46.7–51.6% of the PM. The major organic constituents were organophosphates consisting mainly of triphenyl phosphate (TPP) and its methyl substituted compounds, methyl esters of hexadecanoic and octadecanoic acids, levoglucosan and bisphenol A. TPP and bisphenol A were present at 1–5 orders of magnitude higher than in other indoor and outdoor environments throughout the world, which implies that they might be used as potential markers for e-waste recycling. The elemental carbon, inorganic elements and ions had a minor contribution to the PM (<5% each). The inorganic elements were dominated by phosphorus and followed by crustal elements and metal elements Pb, Zn, Sn, and lesser Cu, Sb, Mn, Ni, Ba and Cd. The recycling of printed circuit boards was demonstrated as an important contributor of heavy metal contamination, particularly Cd, Pb and Ni, to the local environment. These findings suggest that this recycling method represents a strong source of PM associated with pollutants to the ambient atmosphere of an e-waste recycling locale.     

Characterization of organic compounds and molecular tracers from biomass burning smoke in South China I: Broad-leaf trees and shrubs

Biomass burning smoke constituents are worthy of concern due to its influence on climate and human health. The organic constituents and distributions of molecular tracers emitted from burning smoke of six natural vegetations including monsoon evergreen broad-leaf trees and shrubs in South China were determined in this study. The gas and particle samples were collected and analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The major organic components in these smoke samples are methoxyphenols from lignin and saccharides from cellulose. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are also present as minor constituents. Furanose, pyranose and their dianhydrides are the first reported in the biomass burning smoke. Some unique biomarkers were detected in this study which may be useful as specific tracers. The corresponding tracer/OC ratios are used as indicators for the two types of biomass burning. U/R (1.06–1.72) in the smoke samples may be used as parameters to distinguish broad-leaf trees and shrubs from fossil fuel. Other useful diagnostic ratios such as methylphenanthrene to phenanthrene (MPhe/Phe), phenanthrene to phenanthrene plus anthracene (Phe/(Phe + Ant)) and fluoranthene to fluoranthene plus pyrene (Flu/(Flu + Pyr)) and octadecenoic acid/OC are also identified in this study. These results are useful in efforts to better understand the emission characterization of biomass burning in South China and the contribution of regional biomass burning to global climate change.     

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in South China maternal and fetal blood and breast milk

Twenty-one-paired human fetal and maternal serum and 27 breast milk samples at South China were analyzed for concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Seven PBDE congeners (BDE-28, -47, -99, -100, -153, -154, and -183) were quantified using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). This is the first report to present the residue levels of PBDEs in human samples of China. The concentrations of total PBDEs ranged from 1.5 to 17 ng/g in the samples and were within the range reported in European samples for a similar population, but lower than human tissue levels in North America. BDE-47 and -153 were the dominant PBDE congeners in all samples and accounted for 60% of the total PBDEs. Further research is needed to determine the exposure route of PBDEs and their health effects.
