Efficacy of two chemical coagulants and three different filtration media on removal of Aspergillus flavus from surface water

Aquatic fungi are common in various aqueous environments and play potentially crucial roles in nutrient and carbon cycling as well as interacting with other organisms. Species of Aspergillus are the most common fungi that occur in water. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the efficacy of two coagulants, aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride, used at different concentrations to treat drinking water, in removing Aspergillusflavus, as well as testing three different filtration media： sand, activated carbon, and ceramic granules, for their removal of fungi from water. The results revealed that both coagulants were effective in removing fungi and decreasing the turbidity of drinking water, and turbidity decreased with increasing coagulant concentration. Also, at the highest concentration of the coagulants, A. flavus was decreased by 99.6% in the treated water. Among ceramic granules, activated carbon, and sand used as media for water filtration, the sand and activated carbon filters were more effective in removing A.flavus than ceramic granules while simultaneously decreasing the turbidity levels in the test water samples. Post-treatment total organic carbon （TOC） and total nitrogen （TN） concentrations in the experimental water did not decrease; on the contrary, TN concentrations increased with the increasing dosage of coagulants. The filtration process had no effect in reducing TOC and TN in tested water.     

MBR出水后置化学除磷研究

选用不同的化学除磷药剂及固液分离方式,针对膜生物反应器出水进行后置化学除磷静态试验研究。试验表明,在MBR出水平均浓度为(6.0±0.3)mg/L时,在化学药剂的最佳投药量和混凝时间的条件下,TP可以稳定达到一级A标准,去除率达到95%以上;滤液达一级A标准,氯化铝、氯化铁、聚合硫酸铁、硫酸铝最佳投加量为1.5 mol/mol,硫酸铁、聚合硫酸铝最佳投加量为3.0 mol/mol,最佳混凝时间均为10 min;滤纸和滤膜可以有效分离混凝混合液中的TP,滤液TP可稳定达一级A标准,而微网对混合液中粒径小于D10的颗粒无法分离,致使滤液TP无法达标;PAM投加后,絮体粒径显著增大,固液分离效果也相应增强。微网分离效果较投加前有了明显提高,滤液TP可稳定达到一级B标准。     

Antimony smelting process generating solid wastes and dust：Characterization and leaching behaviors

A large amount of solid waste has been produced by the antimony smelting process in the＂World Capital of Antimony＂, Xikuangshan area in China. This study comprehensively investigated the physical and chemical characteristics of the various solid wastes, as well as the leaching behavior of the solid wastes, which included water-quenched slag,arsenic-alkali residue, desulfurized slag and blast furnace dust. These four types of waste were enriched in a variety of heavy metals and metalloids and more specifically with As and Sb levels up to 8.6 × 104 and 3.16 × 105mg/kg, respectively, in arsenic-alkali residue. For desulfurized slag and water-quenched slag, the leaching concentration of Sb significantly exceeded the acceptable limits during the leaching tests using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure and the synthetic precipitation leaching procedure. In addition, As leaching in arsenic-alkali residue was extraordinarily hazardous, being three orders of magnitude higher than the regulatory level of As. According to the results of the extraction tests, all the tested wastes were classified as hazardous waste.

基于N：P化学计量特征的高寒草甸植物养分状况研究

土壤养分条件影响不同功能群植物的养分状况与生长,这在施肥实验中已得到充分验证.然而,自然养分梯度下植物-土壤养分耦合关系的研究仍然缺乏.基于植物N∶P化学计量学特征,本研究探讨青藏高原亚高寒草甸自然养分梯度下不同功能群植物氮状况及生物量变化.2008年、2009年N∶P比值分别为9.83和11.57,其低群落N∶P比验证了该地区自然植被主要受到N素的限制.偏冗余分析(partial RDA)结果显示,随着土壤氮素可利用性的增加杂草生物量比例上升,而豆科、禾草生物量比例下降.豆科的固氮作用以及禾草的高养分利用效率分别提高其在氮限制植被中的竞争力;这些结果表明,全球氮沉降的增加将提高杂草的优势度.豆科生物量比例与群落、非豆科植物的N∶P显著正相关,表明豆科植物能够改善群落的氮状况,包括降低非豆科植物的氮限制水平.     

桂江主要离子及溶解无机碳的生物地球化学过程

河流水体的化学组成记录了流域内各种自然过程与人类活动的信息.对西江一级支流桂江化学径流的分析结果表明,桂江水体的离子组成主要受碳酸盐岩化学风化过程的控制,CO2是这一过程的主要侵蚀介质;H2SO4对碳酸盐岩的风化影响桂江河水的化学组成.大气沉降、人类活动、碳酸盐岩和硅酸盐岩化学风化对桂江水体贡献的溶解物质分别占总溶解物质的2.7%、6.3%、72.8%和18.2%.河流溶解无机碳(DIC)的稳定同位素组成(δ13CDIC)揭示桂江河水中的DIC明显被浮游植物的光合作用所利用.浮游植物初级生产力对桂江颗粒有机碳(POC)的贡献达22.3%~30.9%,这表明岩石风化来源的DIC经浮游植物的光合作用转化为有机碳,并在迁移过程中部分沉积水体底部,进而形成埋藏有机碳.
