Field experiment on biological contact oxidation process to treat polluted river water in the Dianchi Lake watershed

In this study two types of biological contact oxidation processes (BCOP), a step-feed (SBCOP) unit and an inter-recycle (IBCOP) unit, were designed to investigate the treatment of heavily polluted river water. The Daqing River, which is the largest pollutant contributor to the Dianchi Lake, one of the most eutrophic freshwater lakes in China, was taken for the case study. It was found that the SBCOP had higher adaptability and better performance in the reduction of COD, TN, and TP, which made it applicable for the treatment of polluted river water entering the Dianchi Lake. Nitrification rate was observed to be greatly affected by the influent temperature. During each season, the nitrification in the SBCOP was higher than that in the IBCOP. TN removal efficiency in the SBCOP was higher than that in the IBCOP during the winter and spring but poorer during the summer, possibly due to the inhibition of denitrification by higher dissolved oxygen level in the summer. Moreover, symbiotic algaebacteria growth may be conducive to the removal of pollutants.

生物滤池净化含铁锰高氨氮地下水试验研究

以中试有机玻璃滤柱反应器进行伴生高浓度氨氮含铁锰地下水生物同步净化试验研究,结果表明,进水氨氮浓度高于2.0mg/L时,溶解氧浓度是限制锰与氨氮去除的主要原因.下向流底部曝气过滤运行(气水逆向)可解决溶解氧不足的问题,但滤柱滤水能力有限;上向流底部曝气过滤(气水同向)同样可以满足铁锰氨氮氧化需氧量,然而曝气扰动作用削弱了滤池过滤截留能力造成铁锰氧化物穿透滤层,致使滤层出水铁锰浓度无法满足标准要求,曝气量越大,其滤池截留能力越弱.     

脉冲式SBR处理垃圾渗滤液短程深度脱氮工艺特性

以城市垃圾渗滤液为研究对象,采用脉冲式SBR工艺进行短程深度脱氮试验研究.基于理论分析,建立了进水次数对脉冲式SBR法脱氮效率的影响公式,同时应用过程控制优化工艺运行.结果表明,脉冲式SBR工艺通过短程生物脱氮途径,NH4+-N和TN的去除率分别达到95.8%和90.0%以上,最终出水NH4+-N和TN分别低于5.0,15.0mg/L.精准的过程控制是脉冲式SBR工艺短程生物脱氮实现及稳定的主要因素.随着进水次数的增加,外碳源投加量明显减少.因此,采用脉冲式SBR处理垃圾渗滤液,可实现深度脱氮和节省运行费用双重目的.

SWOT analysis for socio-ecological landscape variation as a precursor to the management of the mountainous Kanshi watershed,Salt Range of Pakistan

Variations in geo-environmental attributes differ strongly from those of urban anthropogenic structures. Similarly, these types of structures are self-directed and arranged and prone to abrupt process-related changes and modifications. Thus, there are many reasons why planned urbanization forms in association with disturbances in ecosystem mobility. The current research highlights these variations in the context of social–cultural assessments within the Jhelum River watershed, which strongly expresses urbanization structure development mechanisms. The climate ranges from semi-arid to subhumid subtropical and sub-mountainous climate, though the extreme temperatures may rise as high as 49.4°C in June and may drop as low as ?1.6°C in January. The rainfall is low in the southwest and gradually increases towards the northeast, whereas the Salt Range is the major topographic feature that controls climatic impacts and promotes sustainable development. Cross-disciplinary methods are adopted in this investigation to assess the social–ecological landscape system (SELS) in terms of its mobility and degree of urbanization. The Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda recognize that human livelihoods and the management of natural resources cannot be addressed separately. Investing in the sustainability of mountain communities and ecosystem conservation and protection will provide benefits for humanity as a whole. It pertains to the commensurate development of the SELS and its response to interruptions. Thus, a reliable SWOT analysis for management approaches is introduced that may enable the development of competencies that promote and lead towards rapid improvements in the sustainability of retrograde urban infrastructure, including watersheds.     

Metallic wastewater treatment by sulfate reduction using anaerobic rotating biological contactor reactor under high metal loading conditions

An-RBC reactor is highly suited to treat metallic wastewater. Metal removal is due to sulfide precipitation via sulfate reduction by SRB. Cu(II) removal was the best among the different heavy metals. Maximum metal removal is achieved at low metal loading condition. Metal removal matched well with the solubility product values of respective metal sulfide salts. This study was aimed at investigating the performance of anaerobic rotating biological contactor reactor treating synthetic wastewater containing a mixture of heavy metals under sulfate reducing condition. Statistically valid factorial design of experiments was carried out to understand the dynamics of metal removal using this bioreactor system. Copper removal was maximum (>98%), followed by other heavy metals at their respective low inlet concentrations. Metal loading rates less than 3.7 mg/L?h in case of Cu(II); less than 1.69 mg/L?h for Ni(II), Pb(II), Zn(II), Fe(III) and Cd(II) are favorable to the performance of the An-RBC reactor. Removal efficiency of the heavy metals from mixture depended on the metal species and their inlet loading concentrations. Analysis of metal precipitates formed in the sulfidogenic bioreactor by field emission scanning electron microscopy along with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (FESEM-EDX) confirmed metal sulfide precipitation by SRB. All these results clearly revealed that the attached growth biofilm bioreactor is well suited for heavy metal removal from complex mixture.     

多溴联苯醚及其衍生物在土壤中的分布、转化和生物效应研究进展

多溴联苯醚（polybrominated diphenyl ethers,PBDEs）作为一种良好的溴系阻燃剂被大量地添加到工业产品中,随着产品的使用、回收和废弃处理会进入各种环境介质中,是一类分布十分广泛的持久性有机污染物.PBDEs的衍生物羟基化多溴联苯醚（hydroxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers,OH-PBDEs）和甲氧基化多溴联苯醚（methoxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers,MeO-PBDEs）,由于具有比母体化合物更大的毒性效应和更复杂的环境行为也受到人们广泛关注.通过对PBDEs及其衍生物在土壤中的分布特征、转化规律及生物效应研究的最新进展进行综述发现,PBDEs在土壤中的分布浓度随离工业区距离增加而减小,且大多数污染地区土壤中以高溴代PBDEs为主,偏远地区土壤中则以低溴代PBDEs为主.进入土壤的PBDEs在动物、植物体内及微生物作用下均可发生脱溴代谢转化产生低溴代PBDEs,也可发生羟基化生成OH-PBDEs和甲氧基化生成MeO-PBDEs,与此同时,OH-PBDEs和MeO-PBDEs之间也会发生相互转化.PBDEs及其衍生物作为一种环境内分泌的干扰物对大部分的植物、动物都有显著的毒性效应,对植物而言能够抑制植物种子萌发、幼苗生长、损伤细胞结构以及影响植物代谢活动等;对动物而言能够影响动物的内分泌功能、妨碍动物生殖系统的发育以及对神经系统产生毒性等.目前,关于PBDEs及其衍生物在土壤生态系统中环境化学行为和生态毒性的报道十分有限,探讨土壤中PBDEs的代谢转化过程和毒性效应可为全面深刻地认识PBDEs的环境行为和潜在生态风险提供科学参考.      

有机物对厌氧氨氧化生物膜反应器脱氮效能及微生物群落的影响

为考察有机物对厌氧氨氧化生物膜反应器脱氮效能的影响,采用MPN（most probable number）法和高通量测序技术,结合处理效果数据,对比分析了有无有机物影响下生物膜中微生物群落差异.试验表明：在进水有机物（COD）为30和60 mg·L^-1作用下,总氮去除率与进水COD为0 mg·L^-1时的84.10%相比较分别提高了5.08%和10.41%;COD为90 mg·L^-1时,总氮去除率降至89.05%.由MPN法和高通量测序结果可知,相对于无有机物,60 mg·L^-1有机物使反应器中反硝化菌数量增加,浮霉菌门和变形菌门丰度明显提高,且微生物群落更加丰富.有机物能影响反应器中厌氧氨氧化、反硝化脱氮效能及微生物菌落丰度,适宜的有机物浓度可使厌氧氨氧化与反硝化作用有效耦合,提高反应器的脱氮效能.本研究可为厌氧氨氧化生物膜反应器处理含有机物的实际污水提供参考价值.     

基于净初级生产力的生态足迹模型及其与传统模型的对比分析

生态足迹模型因其可以定量度量生态可持续发展、计算简单、结论易懂、全球可比等特点,提出之后得到了大量的关注和应用,同时也面临着一些质疑和争论。文章介绍了一种基于净初级生产力的生态足迹理论和计算方法,并以该方法和传统生态足迹模型分别计算了中国1961—2007年的生态足迹,对计算结果进行了对比分析。结果表明,两种生态足迹模型的计算结果具有较高的相关性,表明基于净初级生产力的生态足迹模型结果可信。该种方法能够克服传统生态足迹模型的部分缺陷,在均衡因子选取、土地生态功能假设、CO2吸收等方面有了较大改进,能够较好地反映不同生态系统在生产力上的差异;在时间序列分析方面也更加合理。但该方法本身同时存在着计算方法不完善、对生态系统变化不敏感等问题,如何更紧密地结合生态足迹和净初级生产力是需要进一步研究的内容。
