新型喷射鼓泡塔与传统鼓泡塔脱硫的性能比较

以磷矿浆为脱硫剂进行烟气脱硫研究,比较了自主创新研制的中试规模环栅式喷射鼓泡塔与工业规模的日本千代田CT-121脱硫鼓泡塔的性能。结果表明:塔压降和脱硫剂的pH值是影响脱硫效率的关键因素。鼓泡塔采用三塔串联,控制磷矿浆pH值为3.5~4.2、操作压力为7 000~7 800 Pa时,脱硫效率维持在95%左右。环栅式喷射鼓泡塔维持单塔压降约在3 000 Pa左右,磷矿浆pH值在3.7~4.3时脱硫效率可达67%。环栅式喷射鼓泡脱硫工艺以磷矿为脱硫剂,脱硫除尘效果好,系统投资少,运行费用低,并能资源化利用废渣,是适合我国国情的一项脱硫除尘技术。     

Enterobacter cloacae B5产转糖基β-半乳糖苷酶发酵条件优化

β-半乳糖苷酶是一类非常重要的糖苷水解酶,已被广泛应用于食品工业降低乳制品中的乳糖含量.某些种类的β-半乳糖苷酶还具有转糖基活性,近年来被应用于合成低聚半乳糖和半乳糖苷化合物.通过单因子试验和正交试验,对肠杆菌Enterobacter cloacae B5产生转糖基β-半乳糖苷酶的培养基组成及发酵条件进行了优化.结果表明,以无机盐溶液Ⅰ(CaCl2 0.011%、MnSO4 0.0001%、MgSO4·7H2O 0.03%、KH2PO4 0.005%、FeSO4·7H2O 0.003%)、乳糖1.5%、酵母粉2%、蛋白胨0.5%、起始pH 8.5的培养基在25℃培养E.cloacae B5菌株38 h,产酶量达到最高值4.663U mL-1,大约是未优化时的3倍.通过优化产酶条件提高了全细胞酶源的酶活量,不仅为功能性低聚半乳糖的生产降低了成本,同时也为商业化β-半乳糖苷酶的大量提纯降低了成本.图2表4参12

Simultaneous removal of PCDD/Fs and mercury by activated carbon from a full-scale MSW incinerator in southeast China

This study emphasized on the removal performance of polychlorinated-ρ-dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and mercury by different activated carbon injection (ACI) rates from a full-scale (700 t/d) MSW incinerator. The result exhibited that the emission standard of PCDD/Fs and mercury could be met when the ACI rate reached 50 mg/Nm³ and 30 mg/Nm³, respectively. Lower chlorinated PCDD/Fs and PCDFs showed higher removal efficiencies compared with highly chlorinated PCDD/Fs and PCDDs, which could be attributed to the larger competitiveness of highly volatile congeners in AC adsorption than the lower volatile ones. AC turned out to have different adsorption selectivity for CP-routes PCDD/Fs congeners, among which 1379-TCDD was preferred to be absorbed while others exhibited little or poor selectivity for AC adsorption. The removal efficiency of PCDD/Fs was positively correlated with ACI rate at 99% confidence interval with a linear relationship (R²?=?0.98). Also, the outlet concentration of mercury decreased with the increase of ACI rate in a nearly linear function (R²?=?0.96). These results will be meaningful for the rational use of AC for pollutants control.

Statistical analysis as a tool for discriminating dioxin formation pathways

Typical thermal fingerprints are rather evenly composed of all available polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/F) congeners, a feature also linked with CuCl₂-catalysis. Conversely, chlorophenol condensation patterns are supported strongly by CrCl₃-, ZnCl₂- and CdCl₂-catalysis; they feature selective formation of, e.g., 1,3,6,8- and 1,3,7,9-TCDD arising from mainly 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, a chlorophenol well-represented in incinerator flue gas. Just few, well-defined PCDD-congeners steadily emerge from chlorophenols. Surprisingly, it is experimentally established that these are not generally formed by parallel processes. Additionally, the formation of four important 2,3,7,8-substituted TCDD/F- and PeCDD/F-congeners is statistically quasi-unrelated. Apparently, external (α) or lateral (β)-chlorination occurs as a chance event, contrary to observations and hypotheses in earlier studies. These statements are corroborated by selected congener-to-congener representations. For performing this statistical analysis, simple techniques are followed. Cross-correlation matrices show a relationship for each pair of PCDD/F-congeners in a particular data set: PCDD/F-congener pairs statistically correlate, anti-correlate, or appear rather neutral. In this paper, these novel concepts were applied on data, established during tests on Model Fly Ash (MFA); principal component analysis was used to demonstrate the relevance of MFA-data in relation to municipal solid waste incineration signatures.     

Modeling Water Quantity and Sulfate Concentrations in the Devils Lake Watershed Using Coupled SWAT and CE‐QUAL‐W2

Devils Lake is an endorheic lake in the Red River of the North basin in northeastern North Dakota. During the last two decades, the lake water level has risen by nearly 10 m, causing floods that have cost more than 1 billion USD in mitigation measures. Another increase of approximately 1.5 m in the lake water level would cause spillage into the Sheyenne River. To alleviate this potentially catastrophic spillage, two artificial outlets were constructed. However, the artificial drainage of water into the Sheyenne River raises water quality concerns because the Devils Lake water contains significantly higher concentrations of dissolved solids, particularly sulfate. In this study, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was coupled with the CE‐QUAL‐W2 model to simulate both water balance and sulfate concentrations in the lake. The SWAT model performed well in simulating daily flow in tributaries with E_NS > 0.5 and |PBIAS| < 25%, and reproduced the lake water level with a root mean square error of 0.35 m for the study period from 1995 to 2014. The water temperature and sulfate concentrations simulated by CE‐QUAL‐W2 for the lake are in general agreement with the field observations. The model results show that the operation of the two outlets since August 2005 has lowered the lake level by 0.70 m. Furthermore, the models show pumping water from the two outlets raises sulfate concentrations in the Sheyenne River from ~100 to >500 mg/L. Editor's note : This paper is part of the featured series on SWAT Applications for Emerging Hydrologic and Water Quality Challenges. See the February 2017 issue for the introduction and background to the series.     

Decreasing the knowledge gap among different socioeconomic status groups on the issue of climate change

Climate change is causing severe negative consequences to small low-lying islands. To mitigate and adapt to climate change, it is important to improve public knowledge on its causes and consequences. As a social issue that needs collective action to address, the knowledge gap among different segments of population would be a barrier to people’s behaviors toward mitigation and adaption to climate change. This study aims to investigate public knowledge acquisition of climate change by revisiting the knowledge gap hypothesis. A nationally representative random computer-assisted telephone interview survey (N?=?1093) was conducted in Singapore. Quantitative analyses revealed that both newspaper reading and television viewing could reduce the knowledge gap between high and low socioeconomic status individuals. We recommend that governments and relevant authorities should utilize mass media to disseminate information and cultivate public understanding of climate change.
