Numerical simulation of alga growth and control in Dalian Bay

WAHMO model was used to simulate the distribution of pollutants in Dalian Bay, China as to predict well as the growth and control of alga. The observed and predicted values of main pollutants showed a good trend at all study locations and the different between them can be ignored. Simulation results illustrated that phosphate was one of limited factors to control algal growth at the location near the sewage outfall, meanwhile, away from the sewage outfall, the synergy of ammonium nitrogen and phosphate was the limited factor.     

PHYTOPLANKTON IN THE FOX CHAIN OF LAKES1

ABSTRACT: As part of a comprehensive water quality investigation on the Fox Chain of Lakes during May to October 1975, water samples from the Chain and Cedar Lake (reference) at 25 locations were collected weekly or bi-weekly to determine the species and densities of algae. The results have been evaluated for algal composition, density, and succession for each location. Sixty-four algal species were recovered from 414 samples. The number of species per sampling location varied from 10 at Channel Lake and Lake Marie to 26 on Fox Lake (main) and Grass Lake. Blue green algae were predominant and occurred at 25 of the 25 sampling stations. They consisted mainly of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae. The only flagellate of importance was Ceratium hirundinella, and significant concentrations of this organism were limited to Channel Lake and Lake Catherine. The only green alga bloom was created by Ulothrix variabilis on the waters of Pistakee Lake. Diatoms were quite significant on the shallower water bodies. Algal densities ranged from about 25 to 14,000 cts/ml. The highest count occurred on Mineola Bay. Other high counts (>10,000 cts/ml) observed were waters taken from Channel Lake, Grass Lake, and Fox Lake (main). In Grass Lake, 60 percent of the collections had algal densities in excess of 2,000 cts/ml. Most of these were the diatom Cyclotella meneghiniana.     

低分子量腐殖酸改性蒙脱土对黄曲霉素的吸附作用

采用振荡平衡法研究了相对分子质量<3 500的低分子量腐殖酸改性蒙脱土对黄曲霉素(AFB1)的吸附作用及机制.吸附动力学实验结果表明,0～24 h内,蒙脱土原土快速吸附AFB1,在2 h处吸附量即至最大值,而后吸附量持续降低,12 h后趋于稳定、吸附量为1.01μg.g-1;0～24 h内,改性蒙脱土对AFB1的吸附量则持续增加,12 h时吸附量达最大值(1.60μg.g-1),其后吸附达平衡.用腐殖酸改性后,蒙脱土对AFB1的等温吸附曲线由Langmuir型转变为Freundlich型,平衡浓度较高条件下,AFB1在改性蒙脱土上的吸附量明显高于蒙脱土原土.蒙脱土改性后晶层坍塌,出现不规则和絮状松散结构,与其表面聚集的腐殖酸形成较为稳定的"矿物-腐殖酸"复合体,增强了其对疏水性AFB1的吸附能力.随溶液pH值的增大,原土和改性蒙脱土对AFB1的吸附量均增大,但AFB1在改性蒙脱土上吸附量的增加幅度较大,这可能主要与溶液碱性的提高促进了AFB1与蒙脱土矿物的氢键及电性结合有关.研究结果可为进一步阐明AFB1在土壤中的界面过程和环境归趋提供依据.     

Application of a chemically modified green macro alga as a biosorbent for phenol removal

Phenol and substituted phenols are toxic organic pollutants present in tannery waste streams. Environmental legislation defines the maximum discharge limit to be 5–50 ppm of total phenols in sewers. Thus the efforts to develop new efficient methods to remove phenolic compounds from wastewater are of primary concern. The present work aims at the use of a modified green macro alga (Caulerpa scalpelliformis) as a biosorbent for the removal of phenolic compounds from the post-tanning sectional stream. The effects of initial phenol concentration, contact time, temperature and initial pH of the solution on the biosorption potential of macro algal biomass have been investigated. Biosorption of phenol by modified green macro algae is best described by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Biosorption kinetics of phenol onto modified green macro algal biomass were best described by a pseudo second order model. The maximum uptake capacity was found to be 20 mg of phenol per gram of green macro algae. A Boyd plot confirmed the external mass transfer as the slowest step involved in the biosorption process. The average effective diffusion coefficient was found to be 1.44 × 10⁻⁹ cm²/s. Thermodynamic studies confirmed the biosorption process to be exothermic.
