The Influence of Varying Algal Biomass On Contaminant Exposure in Benthic-Planktonic Mesocosms: Copper (Ii)

Abstract

A series of mesocosms was exposed to a suite of light treatments and nutrient enrichment in order to generate algal communities of varying biomass. the influence of this biomass on the speciation of copper (II) was studied. Distribution coefficients ( _Kd,Lkg?1) were relatively high (log _Kd = 5 to 7), indicative of robust trace metal sequestration, and were likely controlled by the particulate organic carbon content (foc). Differences in _Kd over time and among treatments were significant, as was the relationship between _Kd and foc. Fluorescence quenching was used to determine binding capacities ( _Lt , M) and their associated binding constants ( _Kcond ,M^?1) in order to model the solid phase copper speciation. the _Kcond ranged between 2.1 and 5.2 × 10¹²M^?1, indicating a very strong copper-ligand complex, and was higher in mesocosms that received more light. the light _Lt increased over time, dramatically after the nutrient enrichment, but did not vary systematically among light treatments. _Lt ranged from 7.2 × 10? 7 to 4.9 × 10? 5 M. the large magnitudes of _Kd , _Kcond and _Lt ensured that greater than 97% of total copper in the mesocosms was complexed by organic matter. the total copper concentration ([Cu]_T, M) needed to reach a target dissolved copper concentration of 10^?12.5 M (pCu = 12.5) was determined for each mesocosm over time. [Cu]_T was between 8.02 × 10^?5 and 3.41 × 10^?2 M, and increased over time. the [Cu]_T normalized to the target pCu (Effective Dose Ratio, EDR) increased directly with increases in algal biomass, indicating a direct link between system productivity and copper exposure. Approximately 45% of the variance in EDR was explained by variance in total biomass, while the residual variance in EDR was due likely to differences in the strengths of particle associations and magnitude of binding capacities.     

Determination of 1‐octanol/water partition coefficients of isocyanate compounds by an HPLC method

The octanol/water partition coefficients (P _ow) of six monoisocyanate and five diisocyanate compounds were determined by high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) methods. Two HPLC peaks, a broad tailed peak followed by a sharp one, were observed with all compounds. The later peak was identified as the isocyanate compound. The P _ow value for each isocyanate compound was determined by fitting the capacity factor of the peak to the regression equation drawn from those of reference compounds. The hydrophobic substituent constants for the isocyanate group were calculated with each of the compounds. The value of this constant was strongly dependent on the type of carbon bound to the isocyanate group and the average values for the aromatic and aliphatic isocyanate groups were 0.35 and — 0.52, respectively. Because of the reactivity of those compounds in the aquatic environment, the P _ow has little relevance to calculation of their environmental fate and ecotoxicity.

UV/H2O2降解水中磺胺嘧啶影响因素及机理

利用UV/H2O2光氧化反应器降解水中的磺胺嘧啶,考察了H2O2投量、pH值、紫外功率等因素对去除效果的影响,同时对反应动力学及降解产物进行了分析。结果表明,在紫外辐照与H2O2氧化共同作用下,UV/H2O2降解水中磺胺嘧啶效果显著,去除率达90%以上,其降解过程符合一级反应动力学模型（R2=0.991 2）。H2O2投量与磺胺嘧啶降解速率常数具有良好的线性关系,H2O2投量由0.03增大至1.50 mmol·L-1,反应速率常数由0.048 2增大至0.359 9 min-1;同时,随着紫外灯功率由5增大至15 W,反应速率常数由0.066 2增大至0.163 1 min-1;随着初始磺胺嘧啶浓度由0.02增加至0.08 mmol·L-1,反应速率常数由0.251 7逐渐降低至0.046 8 min-1;pH由3.0升高至7.0,反应速率常数由0.070 2增大至0.102 3 min-1,当pH继续增大时,反应速率常数反而降低。根据液相色谱/质谱（LC/MS）对中间产物分析,UV/H2O2降解磺胺嘧啶生成质荷比（m/z）为173、186和200的对氨基苯磺酸等中间产物,推测S-N键和C-N键被打开,这些中间产物可进一步被降解,但TOC去除率仅为7%,表明磺胺嘧啶仅部分被矿化。UV/H2O2工艺处理磺胺嘧啶的电能效率（EEO）采用每一对数减少级电能输入进行评价,优化条件下电能效率为0.078 kWh·m-3,可为实际工程应用提供参考。
