水热处理高含固污泥的无害化效能和资源属性影响

污水处理厂污泥除含有易腐有机质和营养物质外,还富集了大量的抗生素、抗性基因（ARGs）、病原菌等污染物质.水热处理作为预处理技术,可提高高含固污泥的生物转化率,然而对于高含固污泥的无害化效能和资源属性的影响研究较少.因此,本文考察了不同温度水热处理条件对高含固污泥无害化效能的影响,选取具有代表性的4种氟喹诺酮抗生素（FQs）、ARGs及常见病毒作为无害化的评价指标.结果表明,在160℃和180℃处理60 min的情况下,总FQs去除率分别达到了42.5%和59.5%,而低温条件下FQs的去除效果不明显,表明FQs具有一定的热稳定性.高温处理同样对ARGs的消减效果明显,在180℃水热处理后,ARGs和水平转移因子的消减超过了6个数量级（6 logs）,显著降低了ARGs的传播风险.尽管高含固污泥中可以检出病毒基因如人腺病毒等,但污泥中病毒对水热温度非常敏感,在120℃的水热条件下即可消减病毒基因.除此以外,水热处理可以释放大量的营养物质如多糖、蛋白质、挥发性脂肪酸等,有助于提高和改善后续的微生物转化效率.     

Carbon dioxide adsorption behaviors of aluminum-pillared montmorillonite-supported alkaline earth metals

The Al-pillared montmorillonite-supported alkaline earth metal 5M/Al-PILC (PILC = pillared clay, M = Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba) and xMg/Al-PILC (x = 1, 3, 5, and 7 wt.%) samples were prepared using an impregnation method. Physical properties of the materials were determined by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and N₂ adsorption-desorption, and their CO₂ adsorption behaviors were investigated using the thermogravimetric analyzer (TG), CO₂ temperature-programmed desorption (CO₂-TPD), and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared transform spectroscopy (in situ-DRIFTS) techniques. It is shown that 5Mg/Al-PILC possessed the highest CO₂ adsorption capacity (2.559 mmol/g). The characterization results indicate that Al-pillaring increased the specific surface area of montmorillonite, which was beneficial for the adsorption of CO₂. The CO₂ adsorption process on the sample was mainly chemical adsorption, and alkalinity was the main factor influencing its adsorption capacity. The alkalinity of the sample was enhanced by loading an appropriate amount of alkaline earth metal, and the adsorbed CO₂ was present in the form of bicarbonate and carbonate. In addition, the 5Mg/Al-PILC sample exhibited an excellent regeneration efficiency. We believe that the outcome of this research would provide a good option for developing highly effective CO₂ adsorption materials.

Effect of water chemistry on the aggregation and photoluminescence behavior of carbon dots

Carbon dots are rapidly emerging carbon-based nanomaterials that, due to their growing applications, will inevitable find their way to natural waters; however, their environmental fate is mostly unknown. Carbon dots with different surface functionality were fabricated and characterized by TEM and FT-IR. Their surface charge, given by the zeta potential, and their hydrodynamic diameter in suspension were investigated under a variety of environmentally relevant conditions. The effect of ionic strength was studied in the presence of monovalent (NaCl) and divalent (CaCl₂) cations, for pH levels from 3 to 11; humic acid was used as a model for dissolved natural organic matter. Total potential energies of interactions were modeled by classical DLVO theory. The experimental results showed that water chemistry altered the surface charge of the nanomaterials, but their hydrodynamic size could not be correlated to those changes. Evidence of specific interactions was found for the amino functionalized particles in most cases, as well as the plain carbon dots in the presence of Ca^2 + and humic acid. Nanoparticles remained largely stable in suspension, with some exception at the highest ionic strength considered. DLVO theory did not adequately capture the aggregation behavior of the system. Moreover, cation and/or humic acid adsorption negatively affected the emission intensity of the particles, suggesting limitations to their use in natural water sensing applications. The particular stability shown by the carbon dots results in exposure to organisms in the water column and the possibility of contamination transported to significant distances from their source.

Diffusion of ISO 14001 environmental management systems in China: rethinking on stakeholders’ roles

Since the release of ISO 14001 in 1996, China has witnessed a surge in the number of ISO 14001 certification. As an international environmental standard, ISO 14001 has two basic functions: one is playing as an environmental management instrument, while the other as a signal of firms’ better environmental performance to stakeholders. Based on the stakeholder theory, we have examined the effects of community, regulatory and some organizational stakeholders on the diffusion of ISO 14001 certification at Chinese provincial levels. Using a panel data of ISO 14001 certification from each province for the period of 2004-2008 in China, empirical evidence of such relations is found. The finding reveals that signaling to foreign customers and community stakeholders plays a dominant role in encouraging diffusion of ISO 14001 certification. However, as an important organizational stakeholder, foreign investors have shown no significant effect on the diffusion of ISO 14001 in China.     

中国资源枯竭城市的转型效果评价

论文通过对资源枯竭城市转型发展中各方面变化的分析总结,提出以基础、经济、社会、生态4个要素为框架建立资源枯竭城市转型发展指标体系的思路,并根据2005-2009年《中国城市统计年鉴》数据,测量各个资源枯竭城市在自身转型和区域发展地位提升两方面的发展状态。之后对城市的转型效果进行分类分析,发现资源枯竭城市转型总体态势较好,但城市转型效果在空间上以及不同类别城市间存在明显差异,部分城市没有实现经济、社会、环境协调转型发展。
