Interspecific competition effects on phosphorus accumulation by Hydrilla verticillata and Vallisneria natans

The competition between submersed plants has been recognized as an important factor influencing the structure of plant communities in shallow lakes. The ability of different species to take up and store nutrients from the surrounding ambience varies, and hence plant community structure might be expected to affect the cycling of nutrients in lake ecosystems. In this study, the uptake of phosphorus by Hydrilla verticillata and Vallisneria natans was studied and compared in monoculture and competitive mixed-culture plantings. Results showed that for both studied species the phosphorus concentrations of different tissues and of whole plants was unaffected by competition. However, the quantity of phosphorus accumulated by whole plants of H. verticillata was significantly higher in mixture culture than in monoculture, while that of V. natans was lower in the mixed culture. The results indicated that H. verticillata has a competitive advantage over V. natans, when the two species are grown in competition, and is able to accumulate a greater quantity of phosphorus.     

Ambient levels of atmospheric carbonyls in Beijing during the 2008 Olympic Games

The measurements of atmospheric carbonyls concentrations in Beijing were conducted from 12 July to 8 October, 2008, covering the periods of the 2008 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. Six carbonyls, including formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acetone, butyraldehyde, valeraldehyde, and hexaldehyde, were identified in all air samples. The total average concentrations of these carbonyls before, during, and after traffic restriction were (48.1 ± 15.2), (36.6 ± 14.5) and (23.4 ± 12.3) μg/m3, respectively. Compared with the period after traffic restriction, the distinct high concentrations of the carbonyls before and during traffic restriction were primarily ascribed to the remarkable contribution of photochemical reactions. With respect to our previous investigation in the summer of 2005, the reductions of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and acetone during traffic restriction period were about 64%, 47% and 27%, respectively, indicating that the air cleaning actions adopted by the Chinese government for the two games were efficient. The lowest levels of atmospheric carbonyls and the extremely high composition proportion of acetone after the traffic restriction were mainly attributed to the long-term effect of the control measures for the two games.     

热处理天然褐铁矿制备γ-Fe2O3及其NH3-SCR活性探究

以天然褐铁矿为前驱体,通过热处理制备γ-Fe_2O_3作为NH3-SCR催化剂.借助XRD、XRF、XPS、NH3-TPD、FR-IR等表征方法,考察反应温度、褐铁矿中的锰氧化物以及H_2O和SO_2对催化剂选择催化还原NO活性的影响并与α-Fe_2O_3作对比.结果表明,由于γ-Fe_2O_3表面比α-Fe_2O_3具有更强的酸性,使得γ-Fe_2O_3的脱硝温度窗口(200~350℃)宽于α-Fe_2O_3(200~300℃),且在活性温度窗口下,催化剂脱硝效率达到99%以上;γ-Fe_2O_3催化剂中少量MnO_2的存在,提高了催化剂低温段(100~200℃)脱硝活性,降低了高温段(400~450℃)脱硝活性;SO_2的存在会使γ-Fe_2O_3的脱硝温度窗口向高温区偏移100℃、体积分数为5%的H_2O对脱硝反应的抑制作用很小,但当SO_2和5%H_2O同时存在,尤其是SO_2的体积分数达到0.12%时,硫酸铵盐类的迅速生成会大大降低γ-Fe_2O_3的脱硝活性;此外,γ-Fe_2O_3经过NH3-SCR反应后,其磁化率略有降低,催化剂仍然具有磁回收循环利用的潜力.

本着节能环保的发展理念,提出水泥粉煤灰建筑垃圾桩处理软土地基的方案,用建筑垃圾再生粗骨料(粒径范围4.75~9.5 mm)代替碎石、细骨料(粒径范围0.075~0.6 mm)代替中粗砂,并通过室内试验、现场试验及质量检测等验证方案的可行性。结果表明:建筑垃圾再生骨料混凝土的最佳配合设计为胶凝材料掺入比15%,水泥∶粉煤灰=2∶1(E组);试件90 d养护龄期的无侧限抗压强度较28d增加幅度在19.5%~26.5%之间,高于普通混凝土。采用标准试件28 d养护龄期的无侧限抗压强度值作为再生骨料混凝土的抗压强度标准值,偏低;单桩复合地基的承载力为487.7 kPa,较天然软土地基承载力提高了3.8倍,满足复合地基承载力的设计要求。     

微生物对砷的氧化还原竞争

滤池被广泛运用于饮用水厂中,前期研究发现某水厂生物滤池处理含砷地下水时,一方面三价砷可被生物氧化锰氧化为五价砷,另一方面滤池系统中存在的微生物砷还原酶可促使五价砷还原为三价砷,而滤池表面存在的这种微生物竞争关系会影响滤池的稳定性及处理效率.为探讨其内在机制,本研究选取1株锰氧化模式菌(Pseudomonas sp.QJX-1)和1株砷还原模式菌(Brevibacterium sp.LSJ-9),考察在Mn2+、As(As3+、As5+)共存时,两菌株对空间、营养物质以及对砷氧化/还原的竞争关系.结果表明,不同的反应时间,Mn、As质量浓度/价态不同,三价及五价砷体系中,Pseudomonas sp.QJX-1生成的锰氧化物在砷的氧化还原反应中占主导地位,即能迅速氧化本身存在的As3+(三价砷体系)和砷还原菌产生的As3+(五价砷体系),最终两体系中砷都主要以As5+的形式存在.PCR及RT-PCR结果表明,反应过程中锰氧化菌功能基因(cum A)抑制了砷还原酶(ars C)的表达,锰氧化菌16S rRNA表达量始终比砷还原菌高两个数量级,即锰氧化菌在生长竞争过程中占优势.实验结果表明滤池的水力停留时间是决定出水中砷价态的一个重要因素.
