Purification of carbonic anhydrase from bovine erythrocytes and its application in the enzymic capture of carbon dioxide

This work presents a study of industrially applicable techniques to obtain a biologically supported carbon dioxide capture system, based on the extraction of carbonic anhydrase from bovine blood. Carbonic anhydrase is a metalloenzyme which catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. The objective of this study was to establish conditions to obtain carbonic anhydrase from bovine erythrocytes and apply it in the capture of carbon dioxide. To achieve this, two different purification techniques were evaluated: one by extraction with the organic solvents chloroform and ethanol, where different solvent proportions were studied; and the other by ammonium sulfate precipitation, testing percent saturations between 10% and 80%. Carbon dioxide was enzymatically captured by its precipitation as calcium carbonate with the enzyme obtained by both techniques. The enzyme extracted by ethanol and chloroform showed an activity of 2623 U mL⁻¹, recovery of 98% and purification factor of 104-fold. That precipitated by ammonium sulfate showed an activity of 2162 U mL⁻¹, recovery of 66% and purification factor of 1.4-fold using 60% ammonium sulfate saturation. The results obtained in the carbon dioxide capture experiments showed that the carbonic anhydrase extracted in this study not only enhanced the hydration of CO₂, but also promoted the formation of CaCO₃.     

序批式工艺制备生物聚合硫酸铁混凝剂

本实验研究了序批式工艺(SBR)制备生物聚合铁混凝剂过程中主要影响因素(接种微生物浓度、起始亚铁离子浓度)对亚铁离子氧化速率的影响。研究结果显示,在受试实验条件内,较高的接种微生物浓度和较低的起始Fe2+浓度有利于Fe2+氧化,Fe2+浓度变化与反应时间呈线性关系;当起始Fe2+浓度为20 g/L,接种细菌浓度约为8×108个/mL时,Fe2+氧化速率最大,最大值可达到0.375 g/(L.h)。在反应过程中生成了少量黄色沉淀,经傅里叶变换红外光谱分析后确定其主要成分为黄钾铁矾。合成的生物聚合硫酸铁经过干化后各项指标均符合《水处理剂聚合硫酸铁》(GB 14591-2006)之规定。对比实验表明,自制生物聚合硫酸铁海水混凝时性能优于实验所选品牌的商业产品。

混凝+芬顿法对中晚期垃圾渗滤液色度去除

垃圾渗滤液经一般生化处理后色度很大。对混凝和芬顿法结合深度处理垃圾渗滤液对色度去除进行了研究。混凝段通过中心复合设计(简称CCD)和响应面方法(简称RSM)分析了混凝的色度去除率的响应特征,建立了实际因素的最终方程模型:Y(色度去除率,%)=-553.40+73.74A+229.06B+0.38AB-34.16A2-22.67B2,(Y、A、B分别代表色度去除率、投加量和pH)并对絮凝条件进行优化,得到混凝反应的最佳优化条件:投加量1.11 g/L,pH 5.06,及在此条件下的去除率67.2%。在芬顿段,将芬顿反应对水中亲水性有机物相对含量(UV254)与对色度的去除特征相结合进行了研究,证明色度的去除跟该类有机物的去除有关,色度去除率最优值条件选择为H2O2/COD=1.0,Fe2+/H2O2=0.35∶1,而初始pH=2.5时对色度的去除达到99%以上。整个工艺出水可达到达标排放标(GB16889-2008)。     

玉米芯为碳源固定化硫酸盐还原菌污泥代谢特性

以聚乙烯醇为包埋载体,饱和硼酸为交联剂,制作了玉米芯为内聚缓释碳源的固定化硫酸盐还原菌污泥颗粒。通过厌氧批实验研究了在模拟酸性矿山废水(AMD)条件下玉米芯含量、初始SO2-4和Mn2+负荷以及p H对固定化颗粒代谢特性的影响,初步分析了固定化颗粒处理AMD的机理及可行性。实验结果表明,玉米芯在微生物作用下快速水解并产生有机物累积后,固定化颗粒才能迅速还原SO2-4,且玉米芯含量≤5%时硫酸盐还原率与玉米芯含量成正相关,玉米芯的水解会略微降低体系的p H;初始SO2-4浓度通过改变体系中COD/SO2-4和颗粒内外的浓度差影响固定化颗粒的代谢过程,而对玉米芯水解的影响不显著。初始p H为2~6和Mn2+浓度≤55 mg/L时对固定化颗粒活性抑制作用不明显,初始p H越低越利于玉米芯的水解和颗粒形成良好的孔隙结构;颗粒对Mn2+的去除机理是一种不依赖微生物活性的快速化学吸附作用,可用伪二级动力学模型描述吸附过程(R2=0.995)。     

消毒剂和溶解氧对管网铁释放影响的中试研究

针对南水北调中线水源地丹江口水库水调入受水区城市后,可能引起管网铁腐蚀产物释放的问题,从北方某受水区城市的实际管网中挖取了原通地下水的3个地点的铸铁管道,在丹江口搭建了中试模拟系统,开展水源切换以及消毒剂和溶解氧对管网铁释放影响的中试研究。结果表明,实验管道管垢较薄且稳定性较差,在水源切换初期有"黄水"现象发生;增加进水硫酸根浓度,管网系统出水总铁浓度和浊度均有所增加;在0.3~3.6 mg/L的范围内改变进水自由氯浓度对实验系统铁释放的影响没有明显的规律;但进水氯胺浓度从1.3 mg/L增加到2.0 mg/L时,YS系统的铁释放有所升高;进水溶解氧浓度从8 mg/L增加到15 mg/L时,实验系统的铁释放都有明显的降低,但再增加到20 mg/L时,铁释放反而有所升高。

为了考察上流式厌氧污泥床反应器(UASB)处理含硫酸盐有机废水的特性,采用有效容积为10 L的UASB,研究了启动运行过程中COD和SO2-4降解情况、出水VFA和pH值、产气量及颗粒污泥比产甲烷活性(SMA)变化状况。结果表明,接种厌氧颗粒污泥,保持进水COD为1 500 mg/L,SO2-4浓度为100 mg/L,将HRT由24 h缩短至12 h以提高负荷,经历55 d成功启动了UASB反应器;当HRT为12 h,进水COD和SO2-4负荷为3.0 kg/(m3·d)和0.20 kg/(m3·d),COD和SO2-4的去除率分别达到80%和89%,出水VFA为3 mmol/L,产气量达9.5 L/d,颗粒污泥的SMA为86.4 mL/(g VSS·d)。     

Enrichment and isolation of endosulfan-degrading microorganism from tropical acid soil

Endosulfan (6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,3,4-benzo-dioxathiepin-3-oxide) is a cyclodiene organochlorine currently used as an insecticide all over the world and its residues are posing a serious environmental threat. This study reports the enrichment and isolation of a microbial culture capable of degrading endosulfan with minimal production of endosulfan sulfate, the toxic metabolite of endosulfan, from tropical acid soil. Enrichment was achieved by using the insecticide as sole sulfur source. The enriched microbial culture, SKL-1, later identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, degraded up to 50.25 and 69.77 % of α and β endosulfan, respectively in 20 days. Percentage of bioformation of endosulfan sulfate to total formation was 2.12% by the 20th day of incubation. Degradation of the insecticide was concomitant with bacterial growth reaching up to an optical density of 600 nm (OD600) 2.34 and aryl sulfatase activity of the broth reaching up to 23.93 μg pNP/mL/hr. The results of this study suggest that this novel strain is a valuable source of potent endosulfan–degrading enzymes for use in enzymatic bioremediation. Further, the increase in aryl sulfatase activity of the broth with the increase in degradation of endosulfan suggests the probable involvement of the enzyme in the transformation of endosulfan to its metabolites.
