Biotreatment of H2S- and NH3-containing waste gases by co-immobilized cells biofilter

Gas mixture of H2S and NH3 in this study has been the focus in the research area concerning gases generated from the animal husbandry and the anaerobic wastewater lagoons used for their treatment. A specific microflora (mixture of Thiobacillus thioparus CH11 for H2S and Nitrosomonas europaea for NH3) was immobilized with Ca-alginate and packed inside a glass column to decompose H2S and NH3. The biofilter packed with co-immobilized cells was continuously supplied with H2S and NH3 gas mixtures of various ratios, and the removal efficiency, removal kinetics, and pressure drop in the biofilter was monitored. The results showed that the efficiency remained above 95% regardless of the ratios of H2S and NH3 used. The NH3 concentration has little effect on H2S removal efficiency, however, both high NH3 and H2S concentrations significantly suppress the NH3 removal. Through product analysis, we found that controlling the inlet ratio of the H2S/NH3 could prevent the biofilter from acidification, and, therefore, enhance the operational stability. Conclusions from bioaerosol analysis and pressure drop in the biofilter suggest that the immobilized cell technique creates less environmental impact and improves pure culture operational stability. The criteria for the biofilter operation to meet the current H2S and NH3 emission standards were also established. To reach Taiwan's current ambient air standards of H2S and NH3 (0.1 and 1 ppm, respectively), the maximum inlet concentrations should not exceed 58 ppm for H2S and 164 ppm for NH3, and the residence time be kept at 72 s.     

Toxicity and bioaccumulation of copper in three green microalgal species

The effective concentrations of copper on the inhibition of the growth of Scenedesmus obliquus, Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Closterium lunula at 96 h (96 h EC50) were determined to be 50, 68 and 200 microg/l, respectively. The low initial bioaccumulation of Cu by C. lunula was found to be responsible for its tolerance to Cu. The amount of Cu accumulated by all three microalgae reached the maximum value and decreased quickly after the peak followed by a slow decrease over the next 6 d. Bioaccumulation of Cu by C. lunula was directly proportional to the initial Cu concentration. After reaching the first peak after 1 d, the bioconcentration factor of Cu by microalgae declined to its minimum value during the exponential growth phase but increased in the stationary growth phase again. This indicates that desorption of Cu from microalgae was higher during the exponential growth phase but lower in the stationary growth phase. Smaller microalgae with low 96 h EC50 values are more efficient in removing Cu from wastewater.     

T cell-derived IL-5 production is a sensitive target of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD)

The immune system is one of the organs most vulnerable to the toxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Among the various immunotoxic effects of TCDD, the thymus involution and suppression of IgM antibody production are well known sensitive reactions of the thymocytes and B cells affected by TCDD. Recently, we reported that TCDD greatly inhibits the production of type-2 helper T (Th2) cell-derived cytokines, especially IL-5, by the splenocytes in mice immunized with ovalbumin (OVA). In the present study, we investigated the dose-dependency of these TCDD immunotoxic effects in OVA-immunized mice to identify the most sensitive target. Mice of two age groups, 6 weeks old and 3 weeks old, were dosed with 0.3, 1.0, or 3.0 microg TCDD/kg and immunized with OVA using alum as an adjuvant. Seven days later, the thymus weight, thymocyte population, antigen-specific IgM in the plasma, and IL-5 production by the splenocytes were examined. Among them, IL-5 production was significantly suppressed by all three doses of TCDD and reduced to about 30% by even a small dose of 0.3 microg TCDD/kg in both age groups. The thymus weight was significantly reduced by 1.0 microg or 3.0 microg TCDD/kg, but IgM production was not affected by up to 3.0 microg/kg of TCDD in both age groups. Taken together, the Th2 cell-derived IL-5 production was the most sensitive endpoint detecting TCDD toxicity among those examined. Our results also suggest that effector T cells are targets more vulnerable to TCDD toxicity than thymocytes or antibody-producing B cells in the OVA-immunized mice.

Sample purification for analysis of organochlorine pesticides in sediment and fish muscle

The methods of sample purification for determinations of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in sediment and fish muscle were investigated in this study. A two-step procedure with preliminary cleanup and florisil column fraction was adopted. The working conditions of florisil column were firstly optimized. As to preliminary cleanup, liquid-liquid extraction by mixture of dimethyl formamide (DMF) and hexane and sulphonation by concentrated sulfuric acid were applied respectively and compared for the studied samples. The results indicated that liquid-liquid distribution could effectively separate lipids from fish muscle extracts, while failed in elimination of chlorophyll extracted from the relicts of hydrophytes in the sediment sample. In view of the sample appearance and clarity of gas chromatogram, sulphonation was more suitable to purify the sediment sample, however, the recoveries of the spiked standards were poor. The use of eluting solvent with stronger polarity could improve the corresponding recoveries significantly. Due to complete loss of Dieldrin, Endrin, and Endrin aldehyde after sulphonation, this pretreatment was improper to the three components. Sulfur, as the particular disturbing element in sediment, could be removed sufficiently by addition of activated copper powder. The relevant detection limits of the selected methods for OCPs in the studied substrates were also provided.
