颗粒活性炭诱导亚硝化污泥快速颗粒化

采用两组平行SBR反应器,R1反应器投加颗粒活性炭,R2反应器不投加,其他运行参数保持一致.在常规生活污水中投加氨氮作为进水,研究颗粒活性炭对亚硝化颗粒污泥形成的影响.结果表明,在颗粒形成初期,投加的颗粒活性炭作为初始晶核,节约了小颗粒的形成时间,R1反应器仅22d便实现污泥颗粒化,而R2反应器运行38d才形成颗粒;同时,在整个运行阶段,R1反应器中的胞外聚合物(EPS)含量,尤其是其中的蛋白质(protein, PN)含量,明显高于R2反应器的,进一步证实颗粒活性炭的投加有利于亚硝化颗粒污泥的快速形成.除此之外,R1反应器中的氨氧化率和亚硝化率相对较高,且波动幅度小,表明颗粒活性炭的投加有助于维持亚硝化颗粒污泥处理效果的稳定性.     

Characterization of dissolved organic carbon and Humic substances in the well water of the Blackfoot disease area in Taiwan

Since the early 1960s, many investigators have reported that blackfoot disease, a peripheral vascular disease, observed in southwestern Taiwan is due to drinking the higher arsenic concentration in well water. However, recent studies indicated that the relationship with blackfoot disease is not only with arsenic but also humic substances. This paper presents some results concerning the characterization (such as fluorescence, elemental composition, molecular weight and carbon distribution) of humic substances isolated from the Fuhsing well water of the blackfoot disease area. For comparison, the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and humic substances in the normal well water from Chiuying and the Nanwan coastal water were also analyzed. In general, in the well water of the blackfoot disease area, extremely high concentrations of DOC (18.5mg/L) and fulvic acid (7.54mg/L) with high fluorescence intensity (59.1, equivalent to 0.0282uM quinine sulfate solution) and high percentages (over 50%) of low molecular weights of less than 1,000 were obtained compared with those of normal waters. C‐13 Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy showed a high content (37.2%) of aromatic carbon. These higher concentrations of DOC and fulvic acid with the higher content of aromatic carbon in well water might be one of the key factors causing the blackfoot disease in Taiwan.     

Effects of copper on lipid peroxidation,glutathione, metallothionein,and antioxidative enzymes in the freshwater mussel Anodonta anatina

Copper is an essential element to all animals. At elevated concentrations, it is toxic and can participate in the formation of reactive oxygen species, leading to cellular damage. In this study, the ecotoxicological relevance of copper was investigated with freshwater mussels, Anodonta anatina. When the mussels were exposed to copper at environmentally realistic concentrations, either via the water (0.3?µmol?L^?1 Cu) or fed with Cu-loaded algae (equivalent to 0.06?µmol?L^?1 Cu), the level of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances rose and glutathione decreased. This was associated with the induction of metallothionein and, relative to total protein, of glutathione reductase and the antioxidative enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. But, since the overall protein-synthetic capacity was hampered by the copper insult, the activities of the enzymes relative to tissue weight and copper concentrations were depressed. During depuration, most parameters started to normalize although not returning to control values within 12 days.     

曝气强度对膜生物反应器运行特性的影响

以膜生物反应器（MBR）处理模拟生活废水为研究体系,考察曝气强度对系统污染物去除效果、脱氢酶活性、胞外聚合物（EPS）组分和含量、Zeta电位、污泥粒径及跨膜压差等的影响.结果表明,随着曝气强度降低,COD去除率变化不大,均大于94.0%,脱氢酶活性明显降低,VSS/SS比值下降;污泥LB-EPS增加,Zeta电位降低,污泥平均体积粒径减小,膜通量下降速率增大.曝气强度为800—400 L.m-.2h-1的条件下,曝气产生的水力剪切力不是影响污泥粒径大小的主导因素,污泥Zeta电位则起着决定作用,但水力剪切力有利于缓解膜污染.     

污泥龄对膜生物反应器污泥特性及膜污染的影响

研究了污泥龄对胞外聚合物(EPS)总量、紧密粘附胞外聚合物(TB)和松散附着胞外聚合物(LB)含量及其中蛋白质与多糖比例的影响.结果表明,随污泥龄的延长,混合液EPS总量增加,TB和LB中蛋白质与多糖比例发生变化.这种变化改变了细菌表面电荷分布,增大了细菌表面亲水基和疏水基的比例,使细菌的存在状态由不稳定型(R型)向稳定型(S型)转变,降低了混合液Zeta电位,SVI值增大.采用SPSS软件对膜污染的主要因子进行了相关性分析,Zeta电位、上清液悬浮固体浓度、相对疏水性的相关系数分别为-0.818、0.853、0.832.综合考虑膜污染阻力和污泥特性,膜生物反应器的污泥龄应控制在优势菌最小世代时间的120倍以下.     

Effects of Al3+ on pollutant removal and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) under anaerobic,anoxic and oxic conditions

The highest removal efficiencies of COD and TN were achieved under 10 mg/L of Al³⁺. The highest TP removal efficiency occurred under 30 mg/L of Al³⁺. EPS, PS and PN concentrations increased with the addition of Al³⁺. Sludge properties significantly changed with the addition of Al³⁺. Aluminum ions produced by aluminum mining, electrolytic industry and aluminum-based coagulants can enter wastewater treatment plants and interact with activated sludge. They can subsequently contribute to the removal of suspended solids and affect activated sludge flocculation, as well as nitrogen and phosphorus removal. In this study, the effects of Al³⁺ on pollutant removal, sludge flocculation and the composition and structure of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) were investigated under anaerobic, anoxic and oxic conditions. Results demonstrated that the highest chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiencies were detected for an Al³⁺ concentration of 10 mg/L. In addition, the maximal dehydrogenase activity and sludge flocculation were also observed at this level of Al³⁺. The highest removal efficiency of total phosphorus (TP) was achieved at an Al³⁺ concentration of 30 mg/L. The flocculability of sludge in the anoxic zone was consistently higher than that in the anaerobic and oxic zones. The addition of Al³⁺ promoted the secretion of EPS. Tryptophan-like fluorescence peaks were detected in each EPS layer in the absence of Al³⁺. At the Al³⁺ concentration of 10 mg/L, fulvic acid and tryptophan fluorescence peaks began to appear, while the majority of protein species and the highest microbial activity were also detected. Low Al³⁺ concentrations (<10 mg/L) could promote the removal efficiencies of COD and TN, yet excessive Al³⁺ levels (>10 mg/L) weakened microbial activity. Higher Al³⁺ concentrations (>30 mg/L) also inhibited the release of phosphorus in the anaerobic zone by reacting with PO₄^3-.

建立了4-氯-3-甲基苯酚（PCMC）的水生生物斑马鱼暴露毒理学模型,研究了斑马鱼PCMC暴露后内源性代谢物的变化.同时,在斑马鱼PCMC半数致死浓度LC₅₀的基础上,以1/10 LC₅₀为暴露浓度进行代谢组学分析.最后,经超高效液相色谱串联三重四级杆飞行时间质谱（UHPLC-Triple-TOF-MS）检测,结合主成分分析（PCA）和正交偏最小二乘法判别分析（OPLS-DA）进行代谢谱分析.结果发现,空白对照组和暴露组在代谢水平上有明显差异.进一步分析后筛选出9种上调物质和11种下调物质作为潜在生物标志物,主要包括氨基酸、嘌呤、糖类和脂质.根据差异代谢物生理功能分析发现,PCMC主要通过影响嘌呤代谢、甘油磷脂代谢、淀粉和蔗糖代谢、组氨酸代谢、丙酮酸代谢及苯丙氨酸、酪氨酸和色氨酸的生物合成,对斑马鱼的心血管系统、神经系统、蛋白代谢和能量代谢等方面产生毒性效应.本研究建立的代谢组学方法能全面评价氯酚类消毒剂对水生生物的毒性效应,为进一步阐明氯酚类消毒剂的毒性机制提供了理论基础.     

间歇梯度曝气下首段延时厌氧强化好氧颗粒污泥脱氮除磷

本研究采用SBR反应器,以实际低C/N比生活污水为进水基质,采用间歇梯度曝气（各曝气段溶解氧浓度递减）充分利用内碳源,探讨不同首段厌氧时间下好氧颗粒污泥脱氮除磷效果.结果表明,间歇梯度曝气的初始厌氧段从50 min增加至90 min,使颗粒污泥内碳源的储量增加,这一延时厌氧的改进条件导致颗粒污泥脱氮除磷效果提升,当延时至70和90 min时,COD、TN和TP的去除效率分别可达84.74%、70.05%和89.7%以及86.65%、78.81%和85.5%.但随后首段厌氧时间增至110 min后,由于部分细胞解体,污泥流失较严重,使内碳源储量约降低13.6%,进而污染物去除效率下降.在首段厌氧时间从50 min延长至90 min的过程中,LB-EPS中PS含量变化较小,随后延时至110 min后PS含量增加至约7.18 mg·g^-1,PN含量增加至约5.56mg·g^-1.TB-EPS中PN和PS含量均较稳定,进而表明内碳源储量对LB-EPS的影响较TB-EPS大,同时污泥沉降性能下降与LB-EPS中PS含量增加密切相关.颗粒污泥中DPAOs占比随首段厌氧时间的适当增加而升高,其中首段厌氧时间为70 min时DPAOs占比达到51.5%.     

膜-生物反应器中荧光物质对膜污染的影响

采用三维荧光(EEM)技术对膜-生物反应器(MBR)运行过程中进出水、膜面溶解性污染物、溶解性微生物(SMP)和胞外聚合物(EPS)进行分析,并对各运行条件下荧光强度与膜污染速率进行比较.结果表明:各工况膜污染顺序为工况1(0.55 kPa/d)<工况3(1.37 kPa/d)<工况2(1.71 kPa/d)<工况4(3.69 kPa/d),SMP中的类蛋白质和类富里酸,以及EPS中的类蛋白质和类腐殖酸,均与各工况膜污染速率呈一致的变化趋势,而膜面溶解性污染物中的类蛋白质荧光峰则与膜污染速率没有明显的关系,说明在膜表面积累的荧光物质可能与其他有机物共同作用影响了膜污染速率.
