Effect of powdered activated carbon on Chinese traditional medicine wastewater treatment in submerged membrane bioreactor with electronic control backwashing

Chinese traditional medicine wastewater, rich in macromolecule and easy to foam in aerobic biodegradation such as Glycosides, was treated by two identical bench-scale aerobic submerged membrane bioreactors （SMBRs） operated in parallel under the same feed, equipped with the same electronic control backwashing device. One was used as the control SMBR （CSMBR） while the other was dosed with powdered activated carbon （PAC） （PAC-amended SMBR, PSMBR）. The backwashing interval was 5 min. One suction period was about 90 min by adjusting preestablished backwashing vacuum and pump frequency. The average flux of CSMBR during a steady periodic state of 24 d （576 h） was 5.87 L/h with average hydraulic residence time （HRT） of 5.97 h and that of PSMBR during a steady periodic state of 30 d （720 h） was 5.85 L/h with average HRT of 5.99 h. The average total chemical oxygen demand （COD） removal efficiency of CSMBR was 89.29% with average organic loading rate （OLR） at 4.16 kg COD/（m^3.d） while that of PSMBR was 89.79% with average OLR at 5.50 kg COD/（m^3.d）. COD concentration in the effluent of both SMBRs achieved the second level of the general wastewater effluent standard GB8978-1996 for the raw medicine material industry （300 mg/L）. Hence, SMBR with electronic control backwashing was a viable process for medium-strength Chinese traditional medicine wastewater treatment. Moreover, the increasing rates of preestablished backwashing vacuum, pump frequency, and vacuum and flux loss caused by mixed liquor in PSMBR all lagged compared to those in CSMBR; thus the actual operating time of the PSMBR system without membrane cleaning was extended by up to 1.25 times in contrast with the CSMBR system, and the average total COD removal efficiency of PSMBR was enhanced with higher average OLR.     

Releasing characteristics of phosphorus and other substances during thermal treatment of excess sludge

The releasing characteristics of phosphorus,nitrogen compounds,organics,and some metal cations during thermal treatment of excess sludge were investigated.It was found that during heating not only phosphorus,but also nitrogen compounds,organics,and some metal cations could be released in abundance.The maximum orthophosphate (ortho-P) release of about 90 mg/L in concentration was observed at 50℃in 1 h.Except for volatile fatty acids (VFAs),comparatively little total nitrogen (TN),total organic carbon (TOC),and metal cations were released at the same time.Such results might favor further process of phosphorus recovery.VFAs were considerably released only at 50℃.Acetic,butyric,and propionic acid were the most abundant components in turn and their releasing profiles exhibited good linear relationship with time (R~2=0.9977,0.9624,and 0.8908,respectively).The concentrations of Mg~(2 ) and K~ increased with time and temperature during thermal treatment,but Ca~(2 ) decreased.The release of Mg~(2 ) and K~ agreed well with TP release (R~2=0.9892 and 0.9476,respectively).Temperature in the experimental range had very little impact on the linear relationships, especially of Mg~(2 ).Moreover,the parameter of mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) was found to be an important factor for thermal sludge treatment as the released ortho-P and total phosphorus (TP) at 50℃increased more than one-fold when MLSS was increased from 4000 to 8000 mg/L.     

臭氧作用改善膜-生物反应器混合液膜过滤性

提出了利用臭氧作为调控膜-生物反应器中活性污泥混合液的方法,采用小膜过滤装置测定臭氧作用后混合液的膜过滤性变化,并通过测定混合液MLSS、胞外多聚物(EPS)含量、絮体粒径、上清液胶体有机物浓度、黏度的变化,探讨了混合液膜过滤性变化的原因.结果表明,当臭氧投加量低于8.5mg/L条件下,混合液的膜过滤性得到改善.臭氧对混合液的主要作用是氧化污泥絮体表面的部分EPS,使污泥絮体表面性质发生改变,引起絮体再絮凝,絮体粒径增大,上清液胶体有机物浓度和黏度减少,从而改善混合液的膜过滤性质.     

脱硫类水滑石衍生复合氧化物不同方法的制备与表征

采用尿素水解法和共沉淀法制备了MgAl类水滑石,高温焙烧获得衍生复合氧化物.采用X射线衍射(XRD)、热重分析(TG-DTG)、扫描电镜(SEM)、N2-吸附/脱附和CO2程序升温脱附(CO2-TPD)等手段对所制备的复合氧化物结构特征进行表征,并研究其对SO2脱除性能的差异.结果表明,共沉淀法制备的MgAlO复合氧化物比尿素法具有更大的比表面积(148.1m2·g-1)和更多碱性位,这些特点可能促使该方法制备的复合氧化物具有更高的SO2储存容量和反应速率.采用尿素法和共沉淀法制备的MgAl水滑石复合氧化物在700℃温度下SO2吸附容量分别可达0.55g·g-1和0.79 g·g-1.

基于矢栅混合数据模型的土地适宜性评价研究

土地适宜性评价一般为单独基于栅格数据模型或者单独基于矢量数据模型。单一的数据类型在进行土地适宜性评价时对信息的表达难免存在不足。结合面向对象的思想,以土地评价的对象个体为评价单元,利用矢量数据的评价单元边界来分割各类因子作用分值数据,并将评价单元对象内数据统计分析后的结果通过栅格图斑标号对象的联接,入库作为评价单元该因子的作用分值,再根据确定的各因子权重,计算因子的综合评价分值来建立矢量栅格混合数据模型。在此基础上实现了算法,并以浙江省标准农田建设为例,在标准农田立地条件评价中进行了试验。试验结果表明,提出的矢栅混合数据模型能够较为全面地反映地块的各方面要素信息,保证了土地适宜性评价的准确性,并为土地适宜性评价的数据混合提供了一种新的思路。     

Characterizing the trophy hunting debate on Twitter

Social media is an arena of debate for contentious political and social topics. One conservation topic debated online is the acceptability of trophy hunting, a debate that has implications for national and international policy. We used a mixed-methods approach (grounded theory and quantitative clustering) to identify themes in the trophy hunting debate on Twitter. We examined commonly co-occurring categories that describe people's stances on trophy hunting. We identified 12 categories and 4 preliminary archetypes opposing trophy hunting—activism, scientific, condemning, and objecting—whose opposition derived from different moral reasoning. Few tweets (22) in our sample of 500 supported trophy hunting, whereas 350 opposed it. The debate was hostile; 7% of tweets in our sample were categorized as abusive. Online debates can be unproductive, and our findings may be important for stakeholders wishing to effectively engage in the trophy hunting debate on Twitter. More generally, we contend that because social media is increasingly influential, it is important to formally contextualize public responses to contentious conservation topics in order to aid communication of conservation evidence and to integrate diverse public perspectives in conservation practice.

千年桐与毛竹凋落叶混合分解对土壤酶活性的影响

在16年生千年桐人工林中按5种分解模式(模式A:千年桐叶100%;模式B:毛竹叶100%;模式C:千年桐叶50%+毛竹叶50%;模式D:千年桐叶75%+毛竹叶25%;模式E:千年桐叶80%+毛竹叶20%)进行千年桐、毛竹凋落叶及其混合分解的野外模拟试验,分析千年桐与毛竹凋落叶混合分解对土壤酶活性的影响及其与凋落物主要营养元素全氮(TN)、全磷(TP)、全钾(TK),微量元素钠(Na)、钙(Ca)、锰(Mn)、镁(Mg)、锌(Zn)及有机碳(OC)的释放量之间的关系.结果表明:5种模式叶凋落物分解1年后TN、TP、TK、OC和Na、Ca、Mn、Mg、Zn的释放量大小并不一致,不同元素释放量在5种分解模式之间均存在显著差异;5种混合分解模式下,蔗糖酶和过氧化氢酶的最强活性区均出现在5～10 cm土层,其中蔗糖酶活性比较为模式E>C>A>CK>D>B,过氧化氢酶活性比较为模式E>CK>B>D>A>C.80%千年桐叶+20%毛竹叶的配比对土壤蔗糖酶和过氧化氢酶活性的增强作用比较明显,在实际的人工林栽培中,可考虑以千年桐和毛竹4:1的比例进行毛阔混交林的营造,以最大程度地增强土壤肥力,提高土壤质量,促进两种树种的共同生长.图2表2参37
