Characterization and removal of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from landfill leachate rejected by nanofiltration

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) from wastewater rejected by nanofiltration from a landfill leachate treatment plant was fractionated into humic acid (HA), fulvic acid (FA) and hydrophilic (HyI) fractions. It was found that humic substances (HA and FA) composed 75% of the total dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration of the DOM, with an average molecular weight of about 1000 Da. Elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy and acid-base titration observations showed that the HA and FA of the DOM exhibited lower fractions of condensed aromatic functional groups but larger fractions of acidic groups compared with other aquatic DOMs. The properties of HA and FA were similar, but HA exhibited more complete humification, while the HyI fraction had more acidic groups. An aminated polymeric adsorbent NDA-8 was used to adsorb the DOM in the wastewater along with primary coagulation. Results of bench-scale experiments indicated that the treatment process could effectively remove the DOM and heavy metals while desorption liquid was 10 times more condensed than raw wastewater. Results of desorption and reproducibility tests consolidated the strong application potential of this treatment process as an advanced landfill leachate treatment technology.     

固体发酵提高水生植物发酵产物蛋白含量的研究

采用微生物固体发酵技术对伊乐藻(Elodea nuttalli)、苦草(Vallinmeria spiralis)和喜旱莲子草(Alterranthera philoxerides)3种高等水生植物进行单细胞蛋白生产的研究,分析单一菌种和混合菌种发酵过程中水生植物粗蛋白含量和纤维素酶活的变化过程.研究结果表明,与单一霉菌发酵相比,利用霉菌与酵母混合发酵,可明显提高发酵产物粗蛋白产量,其中以黑曲霉(Aspergillus niger)与产朊假丝酵母(Candida utilis)混合发酵苦草的粗蛋白含量最高,产物中粗蛋白含量最高可达39.88%,粗蛋白增加率为84.2%,使其有可能成为鱼、家禽和家畜的蛋白饲料来源.因此,利用固体发酵处理水生植物可以实现水生植物的资源化.     

Assessment of the temporal and spatial distribution of atmospheric PCNs and their air–soil exchange using passive air samplers in Shanghai,East China

A total of 47 passive air samples and 25 soil samples were collected to study the temporal trend, distribution, and air–soil exchange of polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in Shanghai, China. Atmospheric PCNs ranged from 3.44 to 44.1 pg/m³ (average of 21.9 pg/m³) in summer and 13.6 to 153 pg/m³ (average of 40.0 pg/m³) in winter. In the soil samples, PCN concentrations were 54.7–1382 pg/g dry weight (average of 319 pg/g). Tri-CNs and tetra-CNs were two dominant homolog groups in air samples, while di-CNs were also found at comparable proportions to tri-CNs and tetra-CNs in soil samples. Most air and soil samples from the industrial and urban areas showed higher PCN concentrations than those from suburban areas. However, some soil samples in urban centers presented higher PCN concentrations than industrial areas. Analysis of PCN sources indicated that both industrial thermal process and historical usage of commercial PCN mixtures contributed to the PCN burden in most areas. The fugacity fraction results indicated a strong tendency of volatilization for lighter PCNs (tri- to hexa-CNs) in both seasons, and air–soil deposition for octa-CNs. Moreover, air–soil exchange fluxes indicate that soil was an important source of atmospheric PCNs in some areas. The results of this study provide information for use in the evaluation of the potential impact and human health risk of PCNs around the study areas.

pH值对烧结砖中重金属释放的影响

采用酸消解实验和NEN 7371浸出实验研究了烧结砖中重金属总量和有效释放量,采用pH-dependence实验研究pH对破碎烧结砖样品中重金属(Cr、Ni、As、Cd和Pb)浸出特性的影响,以及烧结砖样品的酸碱缓冲容量。结果表明,烧结砖中重金属的有效释放量低于总量,释放率从大到小依次为CdAsPbNiCr;烧结砖的酸缓冲容量较小,浸出液pH从7.03降到3.64,消耗了29.33 mmol/kg硝酸,碱缓冲容量较大,pH从7.03升到12.40,共消耗256 mmol/kg氢氧化钠溶液,因此在使用烧结砖的过程中要特别注意环境pH;浸提液的酸碱性是影响烧结砖中重金属浸出的重要参数,在实验研究的pH范围内,不同重金属的浸出规律不同。Cr和As的释放受pH影响较小,而Ni和Cd的浸出量随pH的增大而降低,Pb的浸出量在强酸和强碱条件下均较大,当pH在5.59~9.86的范围内浸出量很低。

Assessing the Effects of Management Alternatives on Habitat Suitability in a Forested Landscape of Northeastern China

Forest management often has cumulative, long-lasting effects on wildlife habitat suitability and the effects may be impractical to evaluate using landscape-scale field experiments. To understand such effects, we linked a spatially explicit landscape disturbance and succession model (LANDIS) with habitat suitability index (HSI) models to assess the effects of management alternatives on habitat suitability in a forested landscape of northeastern China. LANDIS was applied to simulate future forest landscape changes under four management alternatives (no cutting, clearcutting, selective cutting I and II) over a 200-year horizon. The simulation outputs were linked with HSI models for three wildlife species, the red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris), the red deer (Cervus elaphus) and the hazel grouse (Bonasa bonasia). These species are chosen because they represent numerous species that have distinct habitat requirements in our study area. We assessed their habitat suitability based on the mean HSI values, which is a measure of the average habitat quality. Our simulation results showed that no one management scenario was the best for all species and various forest management scenarios would lead to conflicting wildlife habitat outcomes. How to choose a scenario is dependent on the trade-off of economical, ecological and social goals. Our modeling effort could provide decision makers with relative comparisons among management scenarios from the perspective of biodiversity conservation. The general simulation results were expected based on our knowledge of forest management and habitat relationships of the species, which confirmed that the coupled modeling approach correctly simulated the assumed relationships between the wildlife, forest composition, age structure, and spatial configuration of habitat. However, several emergent results revealed the unexpected outcomes that a management scenario may lead to.     

废物水泥窑共处置产品中重金属释放模型研究——混凝土路面场景

通过模拟煅烧试验制取水泥熟料,并制得混凝土样品。在混凝土路面场景分析的基础上,参照欧盟固体中无机组分有效量测试方法(EA NEN7371),以pH=3.2的HNO3/H2SO4溶液(质量比为1∶2)为浸取液,在液固比为20 L/kg条件下,对混凝土样品进行模拟浸出实验;参照欧盟块状材料中无机组分的扩散实验方法(EA NEN7375)测定混凝土样品中重金属的有效释放量。模拟浸出实验结果表明,Cr、Ni和Cd在浸出过程中扩散控制是其释放的主要因素。在此基础上建立了重金属在混凝土路面中的释放模型。实验室实测累积释放量(实测值)与模型预测累积释放量(预测值)的拟合检验结果表明,实测值与预测值之间差异不显著,释放模型能较好地预测混凝土路面中重金属的长期累积释放量。
