Effect of pH on phosphine production and the fate of phosphorus during anaerobic process with granular sludge

The effect of pH on phosphine formation during anaerobic cultivation of granular sludge was investigated. The sludge was taken from full-scale anaerobic reactors treating brewery wastewater. Acetate and phosphate were used as the carbon source and phosphorus source respectively. After 10 days cultivation in the dark, results showed that acidic conditions were more favorable for free phosphine production. At pH 5, the optimum concentration 86.42 ng PH3 m-3 of free phosphine was obtained. The level at pH 7 was reduced to 18.53 ng PH3 m-3, about 1/5 of the maximum. The maximum concentration of matrix-bound phosphine of 3.30 ng PH3 kg-1 wet sludge was achieved at pH 6. More than 83% of the total phosphine was matrix-bound phosphine, which accounted for 0.003-0.009 per thousand of the phosphate removal, while free phosphine comprised 0.00002-0.001 per thousand of the phosphate removal. Most of the phosphorus removal from solution was turned into chemical precipitation or was adsorbed by sludge. The mechanism of the phosphate reduction-step in the formation of phosphine production is still unknown. The promotion of phosphine formation by low pH is compatible with an acidic bio-corrosion mechanism of metal particles in the sludge or of metal phosphides which form phosphine at low pH.     

城市污水石灰法深度处理工艺中有毒物质的变化规律

分别采用7-乙氧基异酚恶唑酮．脱乙基酶（EROD）活性测定法，重组人激素受体基因的酵母测试和Q67发光菌试验方法，对北京市某生活污水处理厂的进水、二沉出水以及经过石灰法深度处理后的出水中的类二恶英物质、类雌激素物质和急性毒性物质进行了分析。进水中的三类生物毒性效应物质中的急性毒性物质，可通过活性污泥法基本去除，而对类雌激素物质和类二恶英物质的去除率分别为76％和52％。经过石灰沉淀法的深度处理后，可使上述两类物质的总去除率达到95％和68％。出水中的雌激素当量水平与欧洲国家污水处理厂出水水平相当，而类二恶英物质的总浓度低于美国EPA饮用水中二恶英的最大允许浓度。展示了生物毒性测试方法在排水生态风险和工艺评价方面的应用潜力。

Behaviors and kinetics of toluene adsorption‐desorption on activated carbons with varying pore structure

This work was undertaken to investigate the behaviors and kinetics of toluene adsorption and desorption on activated carbons with varying pore structure. Five kinds of activated carbon from different raw materials were selected. Adsorption isotherms and breakthrough curves for toluene were measured. Langmuir and Freundlich equations were fitted to the equilibrium data, and the Freundlich equation was more suitable for simulating toluene adsorption. The process consisted of monolayer, multilayer and partial active site adsorption types. The effect of the pore structure of the activated carbons on toluene adsorption capacity was investigated. The quasi-first-order model was more suitable for describing the process than the quasi-second-order model. The adsorption data was also modeled by the internal particle diffusion model and it was found that the adsorption process could be divided into three stages. In the external surface adsorption process, the rate depended on the specific surface area. During the particle diffusion stage, pore structure and volume were the main factors affecting adsorption rate. In the final equilibrium stage, the rate was determined by the ratio of meso-and macro-pores to total pore volume. The rate over the whole adsorption process was dominated by the toluene concentration. The desorption behavior of toluene on activated carbons was investigated,and the process was divided into heat and mass transfer parts corresponding to emission and diffusion mechanisms, respectively. Physical adsorption played the main role during the adsorption process.

2015年秋季长江口有机碳的分布特征及其影响因素

依据2015年11月对长江口及其邻近海域的综合调查,分析了秋季长江口颗粒有机碳（POC）和溶解有机碳（DOC）的分布特征及其与环境因子的关系。结果表明:2015年秋季长江口POC的质量浓度为0.65~8.25 mg/L,均值为1.34 mg/L,整体呈现近岸高、远岸低,表层低、底层高的分布趋势;DOC的质量浓度为0.77~2.69 mg/L,均值为1.49 mg/L,整体表现为近岸高、远岸低,表层高、底层低的变化特征。有机碳与总悬浮颗粒物（TSM）的线性回归关系表明,陆源输入对POC含量分布贡献很大;有机碳和盐度（S）的极显著相关性说明,S对有机碳的影响主要体现在海水对有机碳的稀释作用及促进POC向DOC转化两个方面;DOC与COD的显著相关性,揭示了DOC的来源与长江径流和河口沿岸工农业排污输入密切相关。     

冬季南京城市大气气溶胶吸湿性观测研究

气溶胶吸湿性不仅影响颗粒物非均相化学反应过程和大气能见度,且对云凝结核形成起决定性作用.本研究运用加湿串联拆分迁移分析仪(H-TDMA)对冬季南京城市大气气溶胶吸湿性进行外场观测研究.结果表明:吸湿增长因子概率分布函数(GF-PDF)呈双峰分布,峰值分别为1.000±0.010(弱吸湿峰)和1.400±0.035(强吸湿峰);在85%相对湿度条件下,不同粒径段(40、80、110、150、200 nm)弱吸湿组粒子数目占比(NFLH)随粒径的增大从40%降低至20%,而强吸湿组粒子数目占比(NFMH)却从60%增加到80%.弱吸湿组GF-PDF离散程度(σLH)在0.04~0.05之间,而强吸湿组GF-PDF离散程度(σMH)0.1,说明强吸湿组粒子化学成分较复杂,外混合程度较高.对比各粒径段气溶胶吸湿性日变化规律发现,平均吸湿增长因子(GFmean)和NFMH均呈双峰特征,峰值分别出现在7:00和17:00左右.受夜晚边界层降低、强吸湿性组分非均相转化生成等影响,GFmean和NFMH夜间数值整体大于白天;受降水等气象条件影响,污染时段所有粒径段气溶胶的GFmean和NFMH均高于清洁时段.

EMERGY analysis for sustainability evaluation of the Baiyangdian wetland ecosystem in China

This study presents a quantitative and ecological benefit evaluation of the Baiyangdian wetland in China between the years 2000 and 2006. Methods of EMERGY analysis were applied to illustrate the wetland ecosystem, to evaluate the economic and environmental inputs and consequent yields, and to assess the sustainability of the Baiyangdian wetland. The indicators for the integrated ecological and economic system, such as EMERGY yield ratio (EYR) (7.51), EMERGY investment ratio (EIR) (4.52), environmental loading ratio (ELR) (2.92), EMERGY exchange ratio (0.41), and EMERGY sustainable indicator (ESI) (2.57) were calculated, compared, analyzed, and discussed. The non-renewable investment in Baiyangdian was greater than renewable investment, leading to the unsustainable development of the system. High EYR indicated that the Baiyangdian integrated system had created huge profits for its people, while ELR and ESI revealed that human behavior has been a heavy burden on the environment, and countermeasures should be taken by the Chinese government to relieve and resolve these problems. Potential management methods were also proposed in this paper.
