微囊藻毒素-RR的提取和臭氧氧化降解

在对采自云南滇池水华蓝藻细胞中的微囊藻毒素-RR(microcystin-RR,MC-RR)提取并发现其含量达到0.19mg/g(干重)的基础上,重点研究了臭氧氧化降解所提取的MC-RR。结果表明,当反应体系中臭氧浓度为5.7 mg/L时,初始浓度1.9 mg/L的MC-RR在15 min内被完全降解。利用HPLC/ESI/MS对提取的MC-RR及其氧化降解产物质荷比测定发现,降解前MC-RR的质谱图中出现特征离子m/z=1 038.7、m/z=519.8以及m/z=135.0。而降解后的产物质谱图中只有Adda基团中带苯环结构化合物(C9H10O)的特征离子峰m/z=135.0存在,其他2个离子峰完全消失。由此推断反应体系中MC-RR(m/z=1 038.2)在大量臭氧及其.OH自由基全面攻击下,分子结构中Adda基团以及单环结构中的不饱和双键直接被氧化而发生断链,最终形成小分子的有机物。     

污泥负荷对UASB处理低浓度污水运行效果和污泥性质的影响

采用升流式厌氧污泥床（UASB）反应器处理低浓度生活污水,探讨了不同污泥负荷对运行效果及污泥性质的影响。通过考察有机物去除率、有机酸积累、污泥粒径、污泥比产甲烷活性、溶解性微生物产物（SMP）、胞外聚合物（EPS）等生化指标,得出如下结论：在受试条件下,污泥负荷率的升高不利于有机物的去除;有机酸特别是乙酸的积累,以及受基质缺乏及污泥洗脱限制的污泥积累,是影响处理效果的因素;稳定阶段污泥的胞外聚合物以紧密附着型EPS为主,污泥负荷升高将导致其浓度升高,而对SMP和松散附着型EPS没有显著影响,EPS的浓度及其组成不影响污泥性质。高的污泥负荷下污泥的产甲烷活性较高。在本实验中,F/M=0.4 g COD/（g MLSS·d）是最佳的污泥负荷条件。     

Mobility of radionuclides in soil/groundwater system: Comparing the influence of EDTA and four of its degradation products

The adsorption behavior of ²⁴¹Am, ⁶⁰Co, ¹³⁷Cs and ⁸⁵Sr in the presence and absence of chelating ligands (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, ethylenediaminediacetic acid, hydroxyethyliminodiacetic acid, iminodiaceiticacid and methyliminodiacetic acid) was investigated. Sorption affinity in the absence of chelating ligands followed: Am(III) > Co(II) > Cs(I) > Sr(II). The presence of chelating ligands generally had little effect on sorption of ⁸⁵Sr and ¹³⁷Cs with K_d values 110 and 690 mL g⁻¹, respectively. But at 0.02 M of ethylenediaminetetraacetic or hydroxyethyliminodiacetic, the K_d decreased to 5 or 63 mL g⁻¹, respectively, where thermochemical modeling indicated almost all ⁸⁵Sr is complexed with these ligands. The K_d values for ²⁴¹Am and ⁶⁰Co generally decreased with increasing chelating agent concentrations. In notable cases, the K_d values for Am increased at specific concentrations of 10⁻³ M for IDA, MIDA and 10⁻⁴ M for EDDA. This is proposed to be due to formation of a ternary surface complex.

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in consumer products in Norway - a pilot study

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are used in numerous industrial and consumer products because of their special chemical properties, for instance the ability to repel both water and oil. A broad variety of PFAS have been introduced into the Norwegian market through industrial use (e.g. via fire fighting foams and paints) as well as in treated customer products such as textiles and coated paper. Our present knowledge of the exact chemical PFAS compositions in preparations using perfluorinated compounds is limited. This lack of knowledge means that it is difficult to provide an accurate assessment of human exposure to these compounds or to the amount of waste that may contain treated products. It is a growing concern that these potentially harmful compounds can now be found throughout the global environment.Samples of consumer products and preparations were collected in Norway, with supplemental samples from Sweden. In 27 of the 30 analyzed consumer products and preparations a number of polyfluorinated substances that were analyzed were detected but this does not exclude the occurrence of unknown PFAS. Notable was that perfluorooctanesulphonate (PFOS), which has been strictly regulated in Norway since 2007, was found in amounts close to or exceeding the EU regulatory level in 4 of the 30 analyzed products, all within the leather or carpet product groups. High amounts of fluorotelomer alcohols (FTOHs) were found in waterproofing agents, carpets and textiles, consistent with earlier findings by Fiedler et al. (2010). The presence of PFAS in a broad range of consumer products can give rise to a constant diffuse human exposure that might eventually result in harm to humans.     

Photocatalytic decomposition of crotamiton over aqueous TiO(2) suspensions: determination of intermediates and the reaction pathway

The photocatalytic degradation of crotamiton in aqueous solution using TiO₂ was investigated. To investigate the effect of initial pH, the photodegradation behaviors of three types of pharmaceuticals were compared (crotamiton, clofibric acid, sulfamethoxazole). The degradation rates of crotamiton in the pH range 3-9 were nearly equal, but those of clofibric acid and sulfamethoxazole were affected by pH. At pH > 6.5, TiO₂ particles, clofibric acid and sulfamethoxazole had negative charge, therefore, the repulsive force between TiO₂ particles and anionic pharmaceuticals occurred and a low reaction rate at high pH was observed. The effect of UV intensity and TiO₂ concentration on photodegradation efficiency was also investigated. Linear and logarithmical relationships between UV intensity, TiO₂ concentration and the reaction rate constant were confirmed. Furthermore, the structures of photodegradation intermediates formed concomitantly with the disappearance of crotamiton were estimated. Seven intermediates were characterized by LC/MS/MS analyses, and it was assumed that the photocatalytic degradation of crotamiton was initiated by the attack of electrophilic hydroxyl radicals on aromatic rings and alkyl chains.     

Changes in the chemical composition of water-extractable organic matter during composting: distribution between stable and labile organic matter pools

Aerobic decomposition and stabilization of organic matter during the composting of waste materials is primarily due to the biochemical transformation of water-soluble compounds in the liquid phase by the microbial biomass. For this reason water-soluble organic matter represents the most active fraction of compost, both biologically and chemically, and thus should directly reflect the biochemical alteration of organic matter. This work aims to elucidate the microbial-mediated processes responsible for the distribution of soluble organic matter between stable and labile pools with composting time. Accordingly, chemical analysis as well as UV absorption, and ¹H and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy of samples collected during the industrial composting of urban waste revealed microbial induced transformation of water-extractable organic matter over time. The chemical composition changed from labile, hydrophilic, plant-derived organic compounds in the beginning to predominately stable, hydrophobic moieties comprising lignin-derived phenols and microbially-derived carbohydrates at later stages of composting.     

Influence of lactic acid on the two-phase anaerobic digestion of kitchen wastes

To evaluate the influence of lactic acid on the methanogenesis, anaerobic digestion of kitchen wastes was firstly conducted in a two-phase anaerobic digestion process, and performance of two digesters fed with lactic acid and glucose was subsequently compared. The results showed that the lactic acid was the main fermentation products of hydrolysis-acidification stage in the two-phase anaerobic digestion process for kitchen wastes. The lactic acid concentration constituted approximately 50% of the chemical oxygen demand （COD） concentration in the hydrolysis-acidification liquid. The maximum organic loading rate was lower in the digester fed with lactic acid than that fed with glucose. Volatile fatty acids （VFAs） and COD removal were deteriorated in the methanogenic reactor fed with lactic acid compared to that fed with glucose. The specific methanogenic activity （SMA） declined to 0.343 g COD/（gVSS-d） when the COD loading were designated as 18.8 g/（L-d） in the digester fed with lactic acid. The propionic acid accumulation occurred due to the high concentration of lactic acid fed. It could be concluded that avoiding the presence of the lactic acid is necessary in the hydrolysis-acidification process for the improvement of the two-phase anaerobic digestion process of kitchen wastes.     

Hydrothermal decomposition of pentachlorophenol in subcritical and supercritical water with sodium hydroxide addition

Hydrothermal decomposition of pentachlorophenol （PCP, C6HC150）, as the probable human carcinogen, was investigated in a tubular reactor under subcritical and supercritical water with sodium hydroxide （NaOH） addition. The experiments were conducted at a temperature range of 30（0-420℃ and a fixed pressure of 25 MPa, with a residence time that ranged from 10 s to 70 s. Under the reaction conditions, the initial PCP concentrations were varied from 0.25 to 1.39 mmol/L, and the NaOH concentrations were varied from 2.5 to 25 times of the concentrations of PCP. The result of this study showed that PCP conversion in supercritical water was highly dependent on the reaction temperature, residence time, and NaOH concentration. PCP conversion in subcritical water is, however, only dependent on reaction temperature. NaOH concentration and residence times were found to have little effect on PCP conversion in subcritical condition. It was found that NaOH concentration affected the dechlorinations of PCP in the supercritical water. The intermediates detected were proposed to be tetrachlorophenol and trichlorophenol, respectively.
