脱水污泥中聚合物的碱提取及其镉吸附效能研究

市政污水处理厂产生的脱水剩余污泥中含有大量的细菌胞外聚合物、胞内聚合物等大分子有机物,是一种良好的生物吸附剂制备原料。以脱水污泥为原料,采用碱提取的方法,对污泥中胞外聚合物与胞内聚合物进行提取,提取得到聚合物吸附剂,分析了聚合物吸附剂中聚合物浓度、核酸浓度随提取剂中NaOH浓度的变化,考察了聚合物吸附剂对水中镉的等温吸附性能。研究结果表明,当NaOH浓度小于0.5 mol/L时,随着提取剂NaOH浓度的升高,得到的提取液中聚合物浓度、核酸浓度逐渐升高。最佳的提取剂中NaOH浓度为0.3 mol/L,该条件下能够充分实现污泥中聚合物的提取。当NaOH浓度高于0.5 mol/L,聚合物中核酸存在一定程度的分解。聚合物吸附剂对水中Cd2+的吸附符合Langmuir模型,NaOH浓度为0.3 mol/L条件下提取得到的聚合物吸附剂的镉饱和吸附容量最大,达1.022 mmol/g。

Evaluation of accuracy of linear regression models in predicting urban stormwater discharge characteristics

Stormwater runoff has been identified as a source of pollution for the environment, especially for receiving waters. In order to quantify and manage the impacts of stormwater runoff on the environment, predictive models and mathematical models have been developed. Predictive tools such as regression models have been widely used to predict stormwater discharge characteristics. Storm event characteristics, such as antecedent dry days （ADD）, have been related to response variables, such as pollutant loads and concentrations. However it has been a controversial issue among many studies to consider ADD as an important variable in predicting stormwater discharge characteristics. In this study, we examined the accuracy of general linear regression models in predicting discharge characteristics of roadway runoff. A total of 17 storm events were monitored in two highway segments, located in Gwangju, Korea. Data from the monitoring were used to calibrate United States Environmental Protection Agency＇s Storm Water Management Model （SWMM）. The calibrated SWMM was simulated for 55 storm events, and the results of total suspended solid （TSS） discharge loads and event mean concentrations （EMC） were extracted. From these data, linear regression models were developed. R2 and p-values of the regression of ADD for both TSS loads and EMCs were investigated. Results showed that pollutant loads were better predicted than pollutant EMC in the multiple regression models. Regression may not provide the true effect of site-specific characteristics, due to uncertainty in the data.     

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.     

Origin of major ions in monthly rainfall events at the Bamenda Highlands, North West Cameroon

Rainwater characteristics can reveal emissions from various anthropogenic and natural sources into the atmosphere. The physico-chemical characteristics of 44 monthly rainfall events （collected between January and December 2012） from 4 weather stations （Bamenda, Ndop plain, Ndawara and Kumbo） in the Bamenda Highlands （BH） were investigated. The purpose was to determine the sources of chemical species, their seasonal inputs and suitability of the rainwater for drinking. The mean pH of 5 indicated the slightly acidic nature of the rainwater. Average total dissolved solids （TDS） were low （6.7 mg/L）, characteristic of unpolluted atmospheric moisture/air. Major ion concentrations （mg/L） were low and in the order K＋ 〉 Ca2＋ 〉 Mg2~ 〉 Na＋ for cations and NO3 〉〉 HCO3 〉 SO] 〉 CI- 〉 PO3- 〉 F- for anions. The average rainwater in the area was mixed Ca-Mg-SO4-CI water type. The CI-/Na＋ ratio （1.04） was comparable to that of seawater （1.16）, an indication that N a＋ and CI originated mainly from marine （Atlantic Ocean） aerosols. High enrichments of Ca2＋, Mg2＋ and SO2- to Na＋ ratios relative to seawater ratios （constituting 44% of the total ions） demonstrated their terrigenous origin, mainly from Saharan and Sahelian arid dusts. The K＋/Na＋ ratio （2.24）, which was similar to tropical vegetation ash （2.38）, and NO3 was essentially from biomass burning. Light （〈 100 mm） pre-monsoon and post-monsoon convective rains were enriched in major ions than the heavy （〉 100 mm） monsoon rains, indicating a high contribution of major ions during the low convective showers. Despite the acidic nature, the TDS and major ion concentrations classified the rainwater as potable based on the WHO guidelines.     

凹凸棒石纤维复合气凝胶吸附水体中TPH吸附特性

以水体中总石油烃(total petroleum hydrocarbons,TPH)为目标污染物,采用凹凸棒石复合二氧化硅气凝胶进行净化石油类污染水体研究,主要考察复合气凝胶使用量及环境要素对去除水体中TPH的影响。研究结果表明:凹凸棒石纤维复合气凝胶与污染水体的质量比为1:60,对TPH的去除率随温度的升高而降低,受pH变化影响较小;当NaCl浓度在0~100 g/L,MgCl2浓度在0~2.5 g/L时,复合气凝胶对水体中TPH的去除率几乎不受盐度的影响;Fe3+、Mn2+、NH4+、NO3-均能促进复合气凝胶对TPH的去除,但受其浓度变化影响较小,同时,凹凸棒石纤维复合气凝胶对上述离子也有微弱的去除作用。研究成果为凹凸棒石复合气凝胶在实际石油类污染水体中的应用提供了科学可靠的数据支撑。

采用模拟钴污染土壤的方法,研究不同程度的钴(0、20、40、60 mg/kg)胁迫对成熟期红苋菜生长及其体内钴积累分布和生理特性的影响。结果表明:(1)同一钴胁迫下,红苋菜株高差异性大,株高差值(最高与最矮的差值)范围为14~27 cm,远大于对照组的4 cm;(2)在不同程度的钴胁迫下,植株各部位钴含量分布规律不一致,且根部钴含量最高。当胁迫浓度为60 mg/kg,植株长势最差组的根、茎、叶部钴含量最高,分别为对照组的41、44和14倍,此时地上部和单株的钴积累量均最大,分别为1 103和1 275μg,且两者的积累量与MDA含量成极显著正相关;(3)钴胁迫使得叶片叶绿素含量、CAT和POD酶活性均出现不同程度的降低,SOD酶活性仅在低浓度的钴胁迫下上升,而MDA含量则上升;(4)钴胁迫下植株对钴的转运系数为0.20~0.64,地上富集系数为1.96~10.06,同一胁迫下,长势最差组的转运系数和地上富集系数最大。     

翼形上进风长袋脉冲袋式除尘器气流特性研究

袋式除尘器对超细颗粒物的净化效果较好,增加袋长是提高过滤面积的有效方法,但随滤袋加长,气流均匀性变差,滤袋容易破损,局部积灰严重,滤袋不能得到充分的利用。文章对翼形上进风长袋脉冲袋式除尘器建立几何模型并进行网格划分,基于计算流体动力学(CFD)理论,选取过滤速度为0.5~1.3 m/min和压力出口为-350~-2 000 Pa为边界条件,采用压力-速度耦合的SIMPLE算法,模拟包含Φ130 mm和Φ150 mm,长10 m滤袋的翼形上进风长袋脉冲袋式除尘器的气流分布,考察气流在滤袋空间分布的均匀性。结果表明:翼形上进风方式使得长袋脉冲袋式除尘器内气流分布较均匀;通过Φ150滤袋的气流速度大于Φ130;靠近壁面的滤袋的气流速度大于相应中心滤袋的。该研究可为上进风袋式除尘器的优化设计提供指导和依据。     

黄石市典型农业土壤中重金属污染水平及评价

以黄石市阳新县某大型农场作为研究区,于2012年2月采集8个代表性表层(0~20 cm)土壤样品,采用火焰-原子吸收分光光度法分析了各重金属元素(Cu、Pb、Zn、Cd、Mn、Co)的总量及BCR连续提取法提取土壤中重金属的弱酸态、可还原态、可氧化态和残渣态含量。结果显示,Cu、Pb、Zn、Cd、Mn和Co总量的平均值分别为122.10、141.29、335.53、2.18、2 606.58和128.27 mg/kg,其中Cd超过了土壤环境三级标准限值,Mn具有最强的变异系数,受到外来污染因素的影响最大。通过地积累指数法和潜在生态危害法表明,6种重金属累积程度由高到低依次为CdCoCuPbZnMn,且Cd、Mn为主要生态风险因子。同时由形态分析可知,Cu、Pb、Cd、Zn、Mn和Co的化学形态分布均以残渣态为主,说明该农场土壤中重金属元素比较稳定,不易迁移转化,对生物的毒性较小。

多环芳烃是我国近岸海域水体和沉积物中需要优先控制的首位有机污染物,喹啉是典型的含氮杂环芳烃,具有较大的毒性、致畸性和潜在的致癌作用。该研究利用填料型MFC对单一喹啉为燃料的产电性能进行了研究。经过6个月利用喹啉和葡萄糖作混合燃料的驯化,MFC中的阳极群落发生了改变,可以利用单一喹啉进行产电,以200 mg/L喹啉为燃料时的最大体积功率密度为2.7 W/m3。在没有外加葡萄糖可能带来的协同共代谢作用下,利用单一喹啉做燃料时,对喹啉在MFC中的降解途径进行了研究。实验结果表明,以喹啉为燃料时,MFC可以在不利用有机物本身作为电子受体的作用下,通过外电路的电子传递完成电子从阳极到阴极的传递而达到相同的目的。
