The role of Mn oxide doping in phosphate removal by Al-based bimetal oxides: adsorption behaviors and mechanisms

This study investigated the behaviors and mechanisms of phosphate adsorbed onto manganese (Mn) oxide-doped aluminum (Al) oxide (MODAO). The isotherm results demonstrated that the maximum amount of phosphorus (P) adsorbed onto MODAO was 59.8 mg/g at T?=?298 K (pH 6.0). This value was nearly twice the amount of singular AlOOH and could increase with rising temperatures. The kinetic results illustrated that most of the P was adsorbed onto MODAO within 5 h, which was shorter than the equilibrium time of phosphate adsorption onto AlOOH. The Elovich model effectively described the adsorption kinetic data of MODAO because of its heterogeneous surface. The optimal solution pH for phosphate removal was approximately 5.0 because of electrostatic interaction effects. Meanwhile, the decrease in P uptake with increasing ion strength suggested that phosphate adsorption occurred through an outer-sphere complex. Phosphates would compete for adsorption sites on the surface of MODAO in the presence of fluoride ion or sulfate. In addition, the spectroscopic analysis results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy indicated that removal mechanisms of phosphate primarily include adhesion to surface hydroxyl groups and ligand exchange.     

Permeability test and slope stability analysis of municipal solid waste in Jiangcungou Landfill,Shaanxi, China

With the rapid increase of city waste, landfills have become a major method to deals with municipal solid waste. Thus, the safety of landfills has become a valuable research topic. In this paper, Jiangcungou Landfill, located in Shaanxi, China, was investigated and its slope stability was analyzed. Laboratory tests were used to obtain permeability coefficients of municipal solid waste. Based on the results, the distribution of leachate and stability in the landfill was computed and analyzed. These results showed: the range of permeability coefficient was from 1.0 × 10^–7 cm sec^–1 to 6.0 × 10^–3 cm sec^–1 on basis of laboratory test and some parameters of similar landfills. Owing to the existence of intermediate cover layers in the landfill, the perched water level appeared in the landfill with heavy rain. Moreover, the waste was filled with leachate in the top layer, and the range of leachate level was from 2 m to 5 m in depth under the waste surface in other layers. The closer it gets to the surface of landfill, the higher the perched water level of leachate. It is indicated that the minimum safety factors were 1.516 and 0.958 for winter and summer, respectively. Additionally, the slope failure may occur in summer.

Implications: The research of seepage and stability in landfills may provide a less costly way to reduce accidents. Landslides often occur in the Jiangcungou Landfill because of the high leachate level. Some measures should be implemented to reduce the leachate level. This paper investigated seepage and slope stability of landfills by numerical methods. These results may provide the basis for increasing stability of landfills.     

Statistical Methods and Pitfalls in Environmental Data Analysis

This paper reviews four commonly used statistical methods for environmental data analysis and discusses potential pitfalls associated with application of these methods through real case study data. The four statistical methods are percentile and confidence interval, correlation coefficient, regression analysis, and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The potential pitfall for estimation of percentile and confidence interval includes the automatic assumption of a normal distribution to environmental data, which so often show a log-normal distribution. The potential pitfall for correlation coefficient includes the use of a wide range of data points in which the maximum in value may trivialize other smaller data points and consequently skew the correlation coefficient. The potential pitfall for regression analysis includes the propagation of uncertainties of input variables to the regression model prediction, which may be even more uncertain. The potential pitfall for ANOVA includes the acceptance of a hypothesis as a weak argument to imply a strong conclusion. As demonstrated in this paper, we may draw very different conclusions based on statistical analysis if the pitfalls are not identified. Reminder and enlightenment obtained from the pitfalls are given at the end of this article.     

Fate in soil of 14C-sulfadiazine residues contained in the manure of young pigs treated with a veterinary antibiotic

The fate of (14)C-labeled sulfadiazine ((14)C-SDZ) residues was studied in time-course experiments for 218 days of incubation using two soils (A(p) horizon of loamy sand, orthic luvisol; A(p) horizon of silt loam, cambisol) amended with fresh and aged (6 months) (14)C-manure [40 g kg(-1) of soil; 6.36 mg of sulfadiazine (SDZ) equivalents per kg of soil], which was derived from two shoats treated with (14)C-SDZ. Mineralization of (14)C-SDZ residues was below 2% after 218 days depending little on soil type. Portions of extractable (14)C (ethanol-water, 9:1, v/v) decreased with time to 4-13% after 218 days of incubation with fresh and aged (14)C-manure and both soils. Non-extractable residues were the main route of the fate of the (14)C-SDZ residues (above 90% of total recovered (14)C after 218 days). These residues were high immediately after amendment depending on soil type and aging of the (14)C-manure, and were stable and not remobilized throughout 218 days of incubation. Bioavailable portions (extraction using CaCl(2) solution) also decreased with increasing incubation period (5-7% after 218 days). Due to thin-layer chromatography (TLC), 500 microg of (14)C-SDZ per kg soil were found in the ethanol-water extracts immediately after amendment with fresh (14)C-manure, and about 50 microg kg(-1) after 218 days. Bioavailable (14)C-SDZ portions present in the CaCl(2) extracts were about 350 microg kg(-1) with amendment. Higher concentrations were initially detected with aged (14)C-manure (ethanol-water extracts: 1,920 microg kg(-1); CaCl(2) extracts: 1,020 microg kg(-1)), probably due to release of (14)C-SDZ from bound forms during storage. Consistent results were obtained by extraction of the (14)C-manure-soil samples with ethyl acetate; portions of N-acetylated SDZ were additionally determined. All soluble (14)C-SDZ residues contained in (14)C-manure contributed to the formation of non-extractable residues; a tendency for persistence or accumulation was not observed. SDZ's non-extractable soil residues were associated with the soluble HCl, fulvic acids and humic acids fractions, and the insoluble humin fraction. The majority of the non-extractable residues appeared to be due to stable covalent binding to soil organic matter.

水喷淋对仓库火蔓延及烟气输运影响的数值模拟

以某仓库作为工程背景,采用多维数值模拟研究水喷淋对火灾火蔓延及烟气输运的作用和影响.分别对该仓库在无水喷淋、水喷淋及时启动以及水喷淋延时动作的三种情况进行了较为详细的计算.模拟结果表明,无水喷雾时,该仓库的火蔓延速度逐步加快,热烟气层从顶棚附近逐步下降到地面附近;水喷雾及时启动时,火蔓延被有效抑制,热烟气层仅停留在顶棚附近;水喷淋延时动作时,火已经蔓延到较大区域,货物处于高温区,热烟气层下降到地面附近,虽然火被水喷淋系统扑灭,但货物已受到高温和烟气的危害.模拟结果为同类型仓库设计水喷淋系统的必要性提供了科学依据,同时也论证了确保水喷淋系统完整好用的重要性.
