细微泥沙粒径对活性污泥产率的影响及其计算公式

针对我国城镇污水处理厂进水SS/BOD5值普遍偏高,在取消初沉池后出现泥沙淤积、污泥浓度提高和污泥MLVSS/MLSS(f)值下降等问题,利用实验室SBR研究了不同粒径的细微泥沙对活性污泥产率的影响,并在对国内外现有污泥产率公式进行具体分析的基础上,提出了对于污泥产率公式的优化方法,并借此推导出f值的预测表达式。结果表明:当在进水中分别掺入体积平均粒径为19.8、72和118.6 μm的细微泥沙300 mg/L时,在系统运行36 d后,污泥浓度从启动初期的3 450分别提高至7 898、5 389和3 742 mg/L,MLVSS/MLSS则从0.67分别下降为0.33、0.48和0.59;活性污泥产率由0.498分别提升至1.257、0.813和0.575 kg MLSS/kg BOD5,利用悬浮系数ω对ATV污泥产率公式进行优化修正,计算值与实测值的相对误差分别由修正前的46.1%、125.8%和219.3%降至修正后的8.4%、8.9%和3.5%,所得的产率更贴近实际;通过修正后的ATV产率公式建立f值的预测表达式,计算值与实测值的相对误差分别为18.3%、12.6%和4.4%。     

Review of Italian experience on automotive shredder residue characterization and management

Automotive Shredder Residue (ASR) is a special waste that can be classified as either hazardous or non hazardous depending on the amount of hazardous substances and on the features of leachate gathered from EN12457/2 test. However both the strict regulation concerning landfills and the EU targets related to End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) recovery and recycling rate to achieve by 2015 (Directive 2000/53/EC), will limit current landfilling practice and will impose an increased efficiency of ELVs valorization. The present paper considers ELVs context in Italy, taking into account ASRs physical–chemical features and current processing practice, focusing on the enhancement of secondary materials recovery. The application in waste-to-energy plants, cement kilns or metallurgical processes is also analyzed, with a particular attention to the possible connected environmental impacts. Pyrolysis and gasification are considered as emerging technologies although the only use of ASR is debatable; its mixing with other waste streams is gradually being applied in commercial processes. The environmental impacts of the processes are acceptable, but more supporting data are needed and the advantage over (co-)incineration remains to be proven.     

有机磷阻燃剂的环境暴露与动物毒性效应

有机磷阻燃剂(OPFRs)逐渐替代了危害较大的多溴联苯醚(PBDEs),因此使得人类及其他生物更易暴露于这种有机物中。有研究表明,部分有机磷酸酯具有致癌性,因而使人们对其毒性的问题也日益关注。本文概述了有机磷阻燃剂的环境暴露水平,总结了近年来从体外与体内实验2个方面动物毒性效应的研究。目前研究发现诸多地区的大气、土壤和水体中的有机磷阻燃剂总含量水平相对较低;仅高浓度暴露才会对不同动物体造成一定程度的损伤,而远大于环境浓度的低浓度暴露几乎无损伤效应。最后,对有机磷阻燃剂毒性效应的未来研究重点进行了展望。     

Denitrification of nitrate wastewater using packed-bed columns.

Columnar packed-bed (PB) reactors with a specific surface area of 127 m2/m3 were investigated in this study for treating nitrate wastewater. This study demonstrated that a single-stage packed bed was able to achieve total nitrogen (TN) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiencies higher than 83 and 75%, respectively. The highest achievable TN and COD removal rates were 47.2 g N/m2 x d and 158.0 g COD/m2 x d, respectively. The substrate removal rate in the PB column was found to follow half-order reaction kinetics, with a reaction coefficient, kappa, of 53.62 (mg/L)1/2/d. A dual-stage PB system was capable of achieving TN and COD removal efficiencies greater than 99 and 98%, respectively. Effluent TN and COD concentrations less than 6.5 mg NO3(-)-N/L and 50.0 mg COD/L, respectively, were obtained when the dual PB system was used.     

Standardization of BOD₅/COD ratio as a biological stability index for MSW

The control of biodegradable substances is the key issue in evaluating the short and long-term emission potential and environmental impact of a landfill.Aerobic and anaerobic indices, such as respirometric index (RI) and biomethane potential production (GB21), can be used in the estimation of the stability of solid waste samples.Previous studies showed different degrees of relationship between BOD₅/COD ratio compared with RI4.Aim of this study is to standardize the parameter BOD₅/COD ratio and to test the methodology under different operating conditions (dynamic or static leaching and leaching duration, 6 and 24-h) keeping constant temperature and liquid/solid ratio (L/S = 10 l/kg_TS), with the introduction of a COD fractioning method. The COD fractioning is based on the differentiation between the soluble fraction (COD_sol) and the colloidal fraction (COD_coll) using a flocculation method.The BOD₅/COD and the BOD₅/COD_sol indices are both consistent and significant and can be used as stability indices.The BOD₅/COD ratio does not seem to be influenced, for the same test duration, by the type of test, static or dynamic. In the same way the longer test duration (24-h) does not influence significantly the values of BOD₅/COD ratio. As a consequence a leaching test duration of 6-h is preferable to avoid the beginning of the hydrolysis and oxidation processes.

Effect of formaldehyde on biofilm activity and morphology in an ultracompact biofilm reactor for carbonaceous wastewater treatment.

The effects of formaldehyde on biofilm morphology and biomass activity were investigated in an ultracompact biofilm reactor (UCBR) for carbonaceous wastewater treatment. The wastewater contained a fixed amount of glucose (with a chemical oxygen demand concentration of 600 mg/L) and an increasing concentration of formaldehyde (ranging from 21.4 to 271.1 mg/L). An influent formaldehyde concentration higher than 75 mg/L could facilitate filamentous growth (on biofilm) control and lead to a higher biofilm density, which is desirable as it enhanced the UCBR performance stability. However, at an influent formaldehyde concentration higher than 214.4 mg/L, biomass production was inhibited and deteriorations of biofilm morphology and biomass activity were observed. This study showed that it was desirable to maintain an influent formaldehyde concentration lower than 202.2 mg/L, as this concentration could achieve a good biofilm morphology while not inhibiting its microbial activity.
