在太湖流域某小城镇污水处理厂研究中试气升式氧化沟的污水处理效果,获取了出水主要指标稳定达标的工艺参数.结果表明,出水COD<50mg/L的最大容积负荷为0.88kg/(m3·d).NH4+–N污泥负荷不大于0.06kg /(kg·d)时,出水能达到排放标准要求的5 mg/L.直沟段DO降低到0.6~1.0mg/L后,进出水TN平均浓度分别为30.7,11.3mg/L,并能保证出水TN<15 mg/L稳定运行14d以上.进气量30m3/h时,直段底部最大流速为0.19m/s,中上部流速为0.03m/s,此时沟底没有出现污泥沉降,出水各项指标稳定达标.生产型气升式氧化沟的占地面积将比传统氧化沟至少减少25%.     

Paternity alone does not predict long-term investment in juveniles by male baboons

Adult male chacma baboons (Papio hamadryas ursinus) form preferential associations, or friendships, with particular lactating females. Males exhibit high levels of affiliative contact with their friends’ infants and defend them from potentially infanticidal attacks (Palombit et al. 1997). Little is known about males’ associations with juveniles once they have passed the period of infanticidal risk. We conducted an observational, experimental, and genetic study of adult male and juvenile chacma baboons in the Moremi Reserve, Botswana. We identified preferential associations between males and juveniles and used behavioral data and a playback experiment to explore whether those associations have potential fitness benefits for juveniles. We determined whether males preferentially invest in care of their own offspring. We also determined how often males invest in care of their former friends’ offspring. The majority of juveniles exhibited preferential associations with one or two males, who had almost always been their mother’s friend during infancy. However, in only a subset of these relationships was the male the actual father, in part because many fathers died or disappeared before their offspring were weaned. Male caretakers intervened on behalf of their juvenile associates in social conflicts more often than they intervened on behalf of unconnected juveniles, and they did not appear to differentiate between genetic offspring and unrelated associates. Playbacks of juveniles’ distress calls elicited a stronger response from their caretakers than from control males. Chacma males may provide care to unrelated offspring of former friends because the costs associated with such care are low compared with the potentially high fitness costs of refusing aid to a juvenile who is a possible offspring.     

壳聚糖负载膨润土处理高浊度废水的效果

以天然膨润土为原料,壳聚糖为改性剂,采用微波改性技术制备了壳聚糖负载膨润土,应用于高浊度废水的处理.通过正交试验确定了废水处理工艺各种影响因素的最佳条件.比较了负载土、原土、壳聚糖的处理效果,结果表明:负载土对高浊度废水的去浊效果明显好于原土、壳聚糖;对于浊度为9250～9480 NTU的废水,经30 min自由沉降后,在投土量为4.0 g·L~(-1)、投土粒度为0.150 mm、搅拌速度为100 r·min~(-1)、搅拌时间为10 min的条件下,废水剩余浊度为6.0～7.0 NTU,浊度去除率高达99.9%.出水水质满足<再生水作循环冷却水水质>的水质要求.     

纤毛状生物膜脱氮除磷工艺调试研究

纤毛状生物膜脱氮除磷工艺(CNR)是一种高效的生物脱氮除磷工艺.好氧池中纤毛状生物膜填料的添加,固化了大量世代时间长的硝化菌,提高了硝化反应速度,而且成功地解决了好氧段硝化菌与聚磷菌的泥龄矛盾.通过对天津某污水处理厂进行CNR工艺中试,得出结论如下:填料比表面积大,微生物附着量高达1 350～1 500g·m~(-2);填料容易挂膜、脱膜,无堵塞现象,更不需要反冲洗,维护管理简单;填料上形成的生物膜中,微生物体系稳定,种群丰富,微生物相包括钟虫(vorticella)、轮虫(rotaria)、表壳虫(arcella)、吸管虫(tokophrya)等;采用CNR工艺对污水处理,常规项目的去除率均达到80%以上,出水水质除总氮达到一级B标准,其他均达到<城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准>(GB 18918-2002)的一级A排放标准.     

部分菊科入侵种种子(瘦果)的萌发能力和幼苗建群特性

对入侵种种子生物学各方面的了解有助于更好地预测入侵趋势和评估可持续管理的策略.研究通过对部分菊科入侵种种子(瘦果)进行的室内萌发实验和土壤埋藏实验,通过与相关研究的对比和分析,对这些入侵种的萌发能力和幼苗建群特性进行了研究.10个入侵种种子室内萌发实验的结果表明,在25℃、12h光照的情况下,除钻形紫菀和一年蓬以外,被研究的其它8个种的终萌发率超过了50%,而且都显示出早期快速萌发的特点.用SPSS的曲线拟合工具对10个种的累积萌发趋势进行了曲线回归分析,对应的最佳模型均为三次曲线方程.不同土壤埋藏深度下幼苗出苗实验的结果表明,菊科8个入侵种的种子在表土的出苗率均最高,随着覆土厚度的增加,种子的出苗率逐渐降低,当覆土厚度超过3 cm以上时,所有种子均不能出苗.种子在不同的埋藏深度的出苗情况与种子的大小有关,较大种子破土能力相对较强;种子在不同的埋藏深度的出苗情况与种子本身的萌发能力也相关.土壤埋藏期限的实验结果表明,随埋藏时期的增加,小蓬草、苏门白酒草和一年蓬3个人侵种种子的活力逐步降低,在土壤中埋藏12个月后,其活力分别为21.34%、18.15%和27.38%.这些入侵种较广的种子萌发温度适应范围和高萌发率为防除工作带来了困难.在生产上,可通过不同时期的翻耕、将种子深埋等措施减少这些入侵种的危害.

天然气管道泄漏爆炸实验分析

天然气管道失效造成泄漏爆炸给周围人员带来非常严重的危害,对其危害范围的研究对输气管道设计和运行具有重要的意义。常见的天然气管道泄漏爆炸伤害半径计算方法有蒸气云爆炸(VCE)定量评价模型、TNO多能法评价模型、API pub 581定量后果评价模型和炸药爆炸经验公式。为验证不同评价模型在受限空间的预测效果,利用天然气爆炸试验台进行了受限空间爆炸实验,得到最大压强与距离经验关系,计算出天然气浓度为7%、9%和11%情况下爆炸死亡半径。计算结果与不同经验模型预测结果比较,表明当天然气浓度为7%~11%时,蒸气云爆炸(VCE)定量评价模型和炸药爆炸经验模型与实验结果最为接近,误差分别为-113%和189%,TNO多能法评价模型和API pub 581定量后果评价模型预测结果偏小。结论对有限空间天然气管道爆炸研究具有实际意义。     

Factors Determining the Choice of Hunting and Trading Bushmeat in the Kilombero Valley,Tanzania

Regulation of illegal bushmeat trade is a major conservation challenge in Africa. We investigated what factors are most likely to induce actors in the bushmeat trade to shift to an alternative occupation by conducting a choice experiment with 325 actors in the bushmeat trade in the Kilombero Valley, Tanzania. Specifically, we asked respondents to choose between hunting or trading bushmeat and alternative salary‐paying work, in a set of hypothetical scenarios where the attributes of these alternatives were varied and included measures of command and control, price of substitute meat, daily salary in the work option, and whether or not cows were donated to the respondent. We modeled the choice contingent on socioeconomic characteristics. The magnitude of fines and patrolling frequency had a significant but very low negative effect on the probability of choosing to engage in hunting or trading bushmeat compared with the salary of an alternative occupation. Donation of livestock and the price of substitute meats in the local market both affected the choice significantly in a negative and a positive direction, respectively. The wealthier a household was the more likely the respondent was to choose to continue hunting or trading bushmeat. On the margin, our results suggest that given current conditions in the Kilombero Valley on any given day 90% of the respondents would choose salary work at US$3.37/day over their activities in the bushmeat trade, all else equal.

氮沉降对华北落叶松叶特性和林下土壤特性的短期影响

以50 a生华北落叶松天然次生林为研究对象,采用全生长季野外多水平林地施氮对比试验的方法,结合树叶特性和林下土壤理化性质测定,设置对照（CK,0 g·m-2·a-1）、低氮（LN,8 g·m-2·a-1）、高氮（HN,15 g·m-2·a-1）3个施氮水平,进行短期氮沉降模拟试验,分析了短期氮沉降对华北落叶松针叶及林下0~10、10~20 cm两层土壤中土壤营养动态的影响,为华北落叶松林的群落结构优化调整、可持续经营管理提供理论依据。研究结果表明：为期一个生长季的短期施氮显著增加了华北落叶松林下0~20 cm土壤层中TOC、NH4＋-N、NO3–-N的含量,却未影响土壤pH值和TN含量,且对表层（0~10 cm）土壤的影响更明显,但整个生长季内月份间的变化较大。短期施氮也导致50 a生华北落叶松针叶的宽度（W）、长度（L）、氮含量（LN）、比叶面积（SLA）和投影面积（PA）显著增加,但未影响叶生物量（LM）和叶有机碳含量（LC）。同时,叶氮含量与0~20 cm层、10~20 cm层土壤中全氮含量以及10~20 cm层土壤中NH4＋-N含量显著正相关,叶有机碳含量则与0~20 cm层土壤有机碳含量和0~10 cm层土壤全氮含量亦呈正相关关系。以上结果说明,华北落叶松天然次生林处于氮限制状态,短期氮沉降可能会提高土壤肥力并促进树木的生长,有利于华北落叶松天然次生林生产力的提高。     

油茶果壳改性生物炭吸附性能及其耦合淹水对土壤Cd形态影响

研究选取湖南典型农业废弃物油茶果壳为原材料,尝试采用Na₂SiO₃溶液浸泡油茶果壳粉末方法,制备改性生物炭（MBC）,并开展不同生物炭材料对溶液中镉（Cd）的吸附与其耦合淹水对土壤中Cd的活性阻控性能研究.用扫描电镜（SEM）、比表面积测试（BET）和傅里叶红外光谱（FTIR）等表征手段对生物炭的物理化学性质进行分析.结果显示,MBC相比未改性生物炭（BC）拥有更大的比表面积与更加丰富的官能团种类,且对溶液中Cd²⁺具有更强的吸附能力.土壤淹水实验结果表明,淹水可使土壤pH值升高,同时降低酸可溶态Cd组分含量,且随着淹水时间的延长,土壤酸可溶态Cd含量呈逐渐向残渣态转化趋势,而生物炭添加耦合淹水比淹水对照处理能明显进一步促进可溶态Cd向残渣态转化,降低酸可溶态Cd含量.酸可溶态Cd组分含量与生物炭的添加量呈显著负相关关系,淹水60 d时,5.0%添加量的MBC实验组土壤酸可溶态Cd含量约为0.33 mg·kg^-1,相比仅淹水的对照处理降幅约为45.0%.综上可知,硅酸钠溶液改性油茶果壳生物炭是一种Cd污染水土和土壤治理的新型有效材料,研究结果同时为油茶果壳的资源化途径提供了方法参考.
