Enhanced methane production in an anaerobic digestion and microbial electrolysis cell coupled system with co-cultivation of Geobacter and Methanosarcina

The anaerobic digestion(AD)and microbial electrolysis cell(MEC)coupled system has been proved to be a promising process for biomethane production.In this paper,it was found that by co-cultivating Geobacter with Methanosarcina in an AD–MEC coupled system,methane yield was further increased by 24.1%,achieving to 360.2 m L/g-COD,which was comparable to the theoretical methane yield of an anaerobic digester.With the presence of Geobacter,the maximum chemical oxygen demand(COD)removal rate(216.8 mg COD/(L·hr))and current density(304.3 A/m_3)were both increased by 1.3 and 1.8 fold compared to the previous study without Geobacter,resulting in overall energy efficiency reaching up to 74.6%.Community analysis demonstrated that Geobacter and Methanosarcina could coexist together in the biofilm,and the electrochemical activities of both were confirmed by cyclic voltammetry.Our study observed that the carbon dioxide content in total gas generated from the AD reactor with Geobacter was only half of that generated from the same reactor without Geobacter,suggesting that Methanosarcina may obtain the electron transferred from Geobacter for the reduction of carbon dioxide to methane.Taken together,Geobacter not only can improve the performance of the MEC system,but also can enhance methane production.     

Using a novel adsorbent macrocyclic compound cucurbit[8]uril for Pb removal from aqueous solution

In this study, cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) was utilized as a kind of new adsorbent to remove Pb^2 + ions from aqueous solution. With the solution pH increased from 2 to 6, the removal efficiency of adsorption increased from 55.6% to 74.5%correspondingly. The uptake of Pb^2 + increased rapidly in the initial 30 min, and then the adsorption rate became slower. The Pseudo-second order model could be used to interpret the adsorption kinetics satisfactorily; and the rate determining step in Pb^2 + adsorption onto CB[8] was the external mass transfer step. Equilibrium isotherm study reveals that the Langmuir model gave a better fitting result than Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity calculated by the Langmuir model was 152.67 mg/g for 298 K, 149.70 mg/g for 313 K and 136.42 mg/g for 323 K, respectively. The adsorption is a spontaneous process of exothermic nature. The effect of the adsorbent dosage and the influences of solution pH and co-existing cations were also investigated. The CB[8] was synthesized and characterized by ¹H NMR, IR, ESI-MS spectra, SEM-EDAX, Zeta-potential and BET-analysis. The adsorption mechanism was due to the coordination between CB[8] molecule and Pb^2 + ions.     

黄土高原及周边地区土壤有机质对现代土壤磁化率的影响

磁化率是黄土-古土壤序列古气候研究的一个重要指标。本文调查了黄土高原及周边地区三种类型土壤的磁化率、土壤有机碳含量、有机碳同位素组成和碳氮比值等指标。样品采集自黄土-沙漠过渡区、黄土塬面和森林地区,代表了黄土高原地区主要的土壤类型。结果显示:黄土塬面、林区、黄土-沙漠过渡区土壤的磁化率变化区间分别为26.6×10~(-8)—61.4×10~(-8) m~3?kg~(-1)、68.6×10~(-8)—107.5×10~(-8) m~3?kg~(-1)、8.5×10~(-8)—44.4×10~(-8) m~3?kg~(-1)。黄土塬面土壤有机碳含量在0.05%到0.62%之间变化,而林区土壤的有机碳含量在1.19%到3.35%间变化。黄土塬面的土壤C/N比值也较低,在0.6到6.1之间变化,林区样品C/N比值在6.2到11.83之间变化。黄土-沙漠过渡区土壤磁化率较低,森林地区土壤磁化率较高,土壤磁化率与有机碳含量、C/N比值呈正相关关系。笔者认为有机质含量增加对土壤的磁化率增强有明显贡献。有机质含量较高时,更适宜土壤中磁性细菌的生长。同时,较高的有机质含量指示着较高植被覆盖,这也对土壤中磁性矿物增加有一定贡献。燃烧有机质还会使非磁性矿物更易转化为磁性矿物。这些因素都会增强土壤的磁化率。
