分离高浓度污泥产酸发酵液的自生动态膜形成机制

采用自生生物动态膜分离高浓度污泥发酵液,研究了动态膜的形成过程及其对污泥发酵液的分离效果.结果表明,自生动态膜的形成过程受污泥浓度的影响较小,污泥浓度仅影响初始膜通量,不影响稳定时的膜通量.膜通量随着滤布孔径和搅拌速度的增大而增大.动态膜的形成过程符合死端过滤模型,分别由以下4个过程构成:先通过与膜基材孔径相似的污泥颗粒堵塞膜基材孔,其后在膜基材上形成单层污泥,进而在膜基材上形成多层污泥,最后,大颗粒污泥继续沉积到污泥层上.动态膜形成后,对污泥颗粒和溶解性COD(SCOD)的截留率分别为98%和28%,对挥发性脂肪酸(volatile fatty acids,VFAs)的渗透率在82%以上,胞外聚合物(extracellular polymeric substances,EPS)中的蛋白质是动态膜的主要成分.     

Factors affecting the removal of aflatoxin M1 from food model by Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains

This paper describes the ability of six dairy strains of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium to remove aflatoxin M₁ (AFM₁) from phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and reconstituted milk. Bacteria were incubated in both PBS and reconstituted milk containing 5, 10 and 20 ng mL^?1 for 0, 4 and 24 h at 37°C. After centrifugation the concentration of AFM₁ was determined in the supernatant fraction using high-performance liquid chromatography. The binding abilities of AFM₁ by viable (10⁸ CFU mL^?1) and heat-killed Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains in PBS ranged from 10.22 to 26.65% and 14.04 to 28.97%, respectively. Similarly, AFM₁-binding capacity in reconstituted milk was found to range from 7.85 to 25.94% and from 12.85 to 27.31% for viable and heat-killed bacteria, respectively within 4 h. While B. bifidum Bb 13 was the best binder, the poorest removal was achieved by L. acidophilus NCC 68. Binding was reversible, and a small proportion of AFM₁ was released back into the solution. The toxin concentration and incubation period had no effect on the removal of AFM₁ by bacteria both in PBS and reconstituted milk.     

Rapid resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the determination of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in wastewater irrigated soils

A multiresidue analytical method was developed for the determination of 9 endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and 19 pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) including acidic and neutral pharmaceuticals in water and soil samples using rapid resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (RRLC-MS/MS). Solid phase extraction (SPE), and ultrasonic extraction combined with silica gel purification were applied as pretreatment methods for water and soil samples, respectively. The extracts of the EDCs and PPCPs in water and soil samples were then analyzed by RRLC-MS/MS in electrospray ionization (ESI) mode in three independent runs. The chromatographic mobile phases consisted of Milli-Q water and acetonitrile for EDCs and neutral pharmaceuticals, and Milli-Q water containing 0.01 % acetic acid (v/v) and acetonitrile: methanol (1:1, v/v) for acidic pharmaceuticals at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. Most of the target compounds exhibited signal suppression due to matrix effects. Measures taken to reduce matrix effects included use of isotope-labeled internal standards, and application of matrix-match calibration curves in the RRLC-MS/MS analyses. The limits of quantitation ranged between 0.15 and 14.08 ng/L for water samples and between 0.06 and 10.64 ng/g for solid samples. The recoveries for the target analytes ranged from 62 to 208 % in water samples and 43 to 177 % in solid samples, with majority of the target compounds having recoveries ranging between 70–120 %. Precision, expressed as the relative standard deviation (RSD), was obtained less than 7.6 and 20.5 % for repeatability and reproducibility, respectively. The established method was successfully applied to the water and soil samples from four irrigated plots in Guangzhou. Six compounds namely bisphenol-A, 4-nonylphenol, triclosan, triclocarban, salicylic acid and clofibric acid were detected in the soils.

A simple ligandless microextraction method based on ionic liquid for the determination of trace cadmium in water and biological samples

A simple and efficient ionic liquid-based ligandless microextraction method has been developed for preconcentration of cadmium ions (Cd²⁺) as a step prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) with a micro-sample introduction system. In this approach, the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [C₄mim][PF₆] and ethanol were used as extractant and dispersive solvents to preconcentrate the Cd²⁺ in different waters, acid digested scalp hair, and nail samples. Some analytical parameters influencing the extraction efficiency of Cd²⁺ and its subsequent determination, including pH, IL volume, dispersant solvent volume, sample volume, temperature, incubation time, and matrix effect, were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), and enhancement factor (EF) were 0.4 μg L^?1, 1.3 μg L^?1, and 50, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of 100 μgL^?1 Cd²⁺ was 4.3% (n = 6). The validity of the proposed method was checked by determining Cd²⁺ in certified reference material (TM-25.3 fortified water) and standard addition; the results showed sufficient recovery (>98%) of Cd²⁺ within the certified value. The method was applied for preconcentration and determination of cadmium in waters and biological samples.     

Reducing ammonia emissions and volatile fatty acids in poultry litter with liquid aluminum chloride

This study was a pen trial in which the effects of adding different rates of liquid aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) on litter pH, total volatile fatty acids (VFAs), and ammonia (NH₃) fluxes was evaluated. Liquid AlCl₃ treatments used in this study were sprayed on the rice hull surface at rates of 100 g, 200 g, and 300 g liquid AlCl₃/kg rice hulls; untreated rice hulls served as controls. Litter pH, total VFAs, and NH₃ fluxes were all lowered (P< 0.05) by all of the liquid AlCl₃ treatments compared with controls during certain times of the 5 week study. However, there were no significant differences among treatments on litter pH at the end of the study (from 3 to 5 weeks) or NH₃ fluxes at beginning of the study (0 to 3 weeks). Total VFAs were reduced 16 %, 29 %, and 53 % by 100 g liquid AlCl₃/kg rice hulls, 200 g liquid AlCl₃/kg rice hulls, and 300 g liquid AlCl₃/kg rice hulls, respectively. Liquid AlCl₃additions reduced NH₃ fluxes by 35 %, 57 % and 67 %, respectively, at the low, medium and high rates. In summary, these results indicate that adding liquid aluminum chloride to rice hulls would be a useful tool in reducing the negative environmental impact of poultry litter. It should be noted that the decreased VFA production and NH₃ volatilization was chiefly associated with reduction in litter pH.

化学滴液电极对废水中Pb~(2+)测定的初步研究

利用自制的滴液电极,运用循环伏安和方波伏安法,对Pb~(2+)在水/甲基异丁基酮(MIBK)界面上通过双硫腙(HDz)促迁移的反应机制进行了研究.结果表明,该迁移过程为不可逆过程,Pb~(2+)的迁移峰电位为0.122 V,且当Pb~(2+)摩尔浓度为5.0×10~(-7)～4.0×10~(-5)mol/L时,峰电流和Pb~(2+)浓度呈线性相关关系;水相中常见的Na~+等金属离子浓度比Pb~(2+)浓度大百倍时,或水相中常见的Mg~(2+)、Ni~(2+)浓度与Pb~(2+)浓度相同时,对峰电流测定结果产生的干扰都较小(相对误差小于10.0%),但当水相中有Zn~(2+)、Cu~(2+)、Fe~(3+)存在时,即使其浓度都与Pb~(2+)浓度相同,也会对峰电流测定结果产生明显干扰(相对误差分别为-12.2%、-28.7%、-60.3%);以方波伏安法取代循环伏安法进行峰电流测定,以新型绿色溶剂室温离子液体(RTILs)取代四苯硼四丁基铵作为有机相电解质,能极大提高Pb~(2+)浓度测定的灵敏度.

离子液体对三种农作物发芽和生长的毒性研究

为了考察离子液体的生态毒性,研究了5种离子液体及其浓度变化对3种农作物发芽及生长状况的影响。结果表明：就种子发芽这一生态毒理指标而言,不同作物对离子液体毒性的敏感程度不同,其次序为黄瓜>玉米>白菜;在一定浓度下,离子液体对白菜、黄瓜和玉米均具有一定的毒害作用;对于所考察的5种离子液体,阴离子为卤素的［EMIM］Br和［BMIM］Cl对植物发芽和生长的抑制作用远大于阴离子为烷基硫酸酯和烷基磷酸酯的同类离子液体 ［EMIM］［ES］、［EMIM］［DEP］和［MMIM］［DMP］。这种毒性顺序可能与卤素离子对细胞膜较强的穿透能力和由于离子液体的稳定性所造成的阴阳“离子对”的共迁移有关。
