不同细菌分泌物及其反渗透膜污堵特性比较

反渗透(RO)工艺在城市污水再生处理中的应用越来越多,但膜污堵严重影响了该工艺的稳定运行.溶解性微生物产物(SMP)是造成RO膜污堵的最主要的有机物.本文以再生水厂RO膜面分离的两种细菌Pseudomonas sp. AM1-1和Chromobacterium sp.AM1-2的SMP为研究对象,比较了两者SMP的组成成分及其对RO膜的污堵能力.结果发现,在葡萄糖培养基中培养至稳定期后,两者产生的SMP中多糖与蛋白质比例均约为1∶1,AM1-1的SMP中多糖和蛋白质均呈双峰式分布,分布于大于10~5Da和小于10~3Da两个范围;AM1-2的SMP中,多糖分子量呈双峰式分布,主要分布于大于10~6Da的范围,有少量小于10~3Da,蛋白质分子量小于10~3Da.通过RO错流过滤污堵实验装置考察了两种SMP对RO膜的污堵特性,发现SMP中大分子有机物的分子量与SMP的膜污堵潜力密切相关,有机物分子量越大,SMP的膜污堵潜力越高,而多糖和蛋白质的比例并不是决定SMP膜污堵潜力的关键.因此,减少SMP中的大分子量物质(特别是大分子多糖)在RO膜表面的沉积,是缓解SMP造成的RO膜污堵的关键.     

电导率对厌氧产酸、正渗透与微生物燃料电池耦合工艺运行性能的影响

将厌氧产酸(AA)、正渗透技术(FO)与微生物燃料电池(MFC)进行耦合,构建了用于污水处理的AAFO-MFC耦合工艺,实现污水的同步产电和回用.由于电导率是AAFO-MFC运行的关键因素,考察了电导率对系统运行性能的影响.结果表明,较高的电导率可以降低MFC的内阻,提高产电,但是会加重FO膜污染,导致FO膜通量快速衰减,缩短运行时间.电导率对出水水质并没有显著影响,FO膜出水的总有机碳(TOC)和总磷(TP)浓度分别低于4 mg·L~(-1)和0.5 mg·L~(-1),但是FO膜对于氨氮(NH+4-N)的截留效果较差.控制反应器内电导率为7~8 m S·cm-1时,系统整体性能表现最佳,可以获得连续且相对稳定的输出电压,而且FO膜通量下降较为缓慢,运行周期达到29 d.

松软突出煤层水平钻孔反循环气力排屑机理

为了解决顺层钻进瓦斯抽放钻孔成孔难的问题,提出了松软突出煤层瓦斯抽放钻孔钻杆内孔反循环气力排屑新技术,建立煤屑颗粒在钻杆内孔的反循环气力输送数学模型,经仿真求解,分析了输送压力损失及固相速度的变化规律。结果表明,在顺层水平钻孔钻进过程中,煤屑在反循环气力作用下,气流速度在钻杆内孔中上部比较稳定,而在钻杆内孔下部靠近内壁处的气流速度明显下降且小于中心区域;在同一位置输送浓度越大,气流速度也越大;在输送浓度不同的情况下,随着输送气流速度的增加,钻杆内孔的压力损失先降低再增高,在钻杆内孔反循环气力排屑时存在最佳经济速度。

Pilot study for the treatment of sodium and fluoride-contaminated groundwater by using high-pressure membrane systems

High-pressure membrane process is one of the cost-effective technologies for the treatment of groundwater containing excessive dissolved solids. This paper reports a pilot study in treating a typical groundwater in Huaibei Plain containing excessive sodium, sulfate and fluoride ions. Three membrane systems were set up and two brands of reverse osmosis (RO), four low-pressure RO (LPRO) and one tight nanofiltration (NF) membranes were tested under this pilot study. An apparent recovery rate at about 75% was adopted. Cartridge filtration, in combination with dosing antiscalent, was not sufficient to reduce the fouling potential of the raw water. All RO and LPRO systems (except for the two severely affected by membrane fouling) demonstrated similar rejection ratios of the conductivity (~98.5%), sodium (~98.5%) and fluoride (~99%). Membrane fouling substantially reduced the rejection performance of the fouled membranes. The tight NF membrane also had a good rejection on conductivity (95%), sodium (94%) and fluoride (95%). All membranes rejected sulfate ion almost completely (more than 99%). The electricity consumptions for the RO, LPRO and NF systems were 1.74, 1.10 and 0.72 kWh?m^-3 treated water, respectively. The estimated treatment costs by using typical RO, LPRO and tight NF membrane systems were 1.21, 0.98 and 0.96 CNY?m^-3 finished water, respectively. A treatment process consisting of either LPRO or tight NF facilities following multi-media filtration was suggested.     

Ozonation as an efficient pretreatment method to alleviate reverse osmosis membrane fouling caused by complexes of humic acid and calcium ion

Humic acids (HA) didn’t cause obvious reverse osmosis (RO) membrane fouling in 45 h. Osmotic pressure (NaCl) affected slightly the RO membrane fouling behavior of HA. Ca²⁺ promoted aggregation of HA molecules and thus aggravated RO membrane fouling. Ozonation eliminated the effect of Ca²⁺ on the RO membrane fouling behavior of HA. The change of the structure of HA was related to its membrane fouling behavior. Humic acid has been considered as one of the most significant sources in feed water causing organic fouling of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, but the relationship between the fouling behavior of humic acid and the change of its molecular structure has not been well developed yet. In this study, the RO membrane fouling behavior of humic acid was studied systematically with ozonation as a pretreatment method to control RO membrane fouling. Furthermore, the effect of ozone on the structure of humic acid was also explored to reveal the mechanisms. Humic acid alone (10–90 mg/L, in deionized water) was found not to cause obvious RO membrane fouling in 45-h operation. However, the presence of Ca²⁺ aggravated significantly the RO membrane fouling caused by humic acid, with significant flux reduction and denser fouling layer on RO membrane, as it was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). However, after the pretreatment by ozone, the influence of Ca²⁺ was almost eliminated. Further analysis revealed that the addition of Ca²⁺ increased the particle size of humic acid solution significantly, while ozonation reduced the SUVA₂₅₄, particle size and molecular weight of the complexes of humic acid and Ca²⁺ (HA-Ca²⁺ complexes). According to these results and literature, the bridge effect of Ca²⁺ aggregating humic acid molecules and the cleavage effect of ozone breaking HA-Ca²⁺ complexes were summarized. The change of the structure of humic acid under the effect of Ca²⁺ and ozone is closely related to the change of its membrane fouling behavior.     

Simultaneously recovering electricity and water from wastewater by osmotic microbial fuel cells: Performance and membrane fouling

Since the concept of the osmotic microbial fuel cell (OsMFC) was introduced in 2011, it has attracted growing interests for its potential applications in wastewater treatment and energy recovery. However, forward osmosis (FO) membrane fouling resulting in a severe water flux decline remains a main obstacle. Until now, the fouling mechanisms of FO membrane especially the development of biofouling layer in the OsMFC are not yet clear. Here, the fouling behavior of FO membrane in OsMFCs was systematically investigated. The results indicated that a thick fouling layer including biofouling and inorganic fouling was existed on the FO membrane surface. Compared to the inorganic fouling, the biofouling played a more important role in the development of the fouling layer. Further analyses by the confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) implied that the growth of biofouling layer on the FO membrane surface in the OsMFC could be divided into three stages. Initially, microorganisms associated with ß-D-glucopyranose polysaccharides were deposited on the FO membrane surface. After that, the microorganisms grew into a biofilm caused a quick decrease of water flux. Subsequently, some of microorganisms were dead due to lack of nutrient source, in the meantime, polysaccharide and proteins in the biofouling layer were decomposed as nutrient source, thus leading to a slow development of the biofouling layer. Moreover, the microorganisms played a significant role in the formation and development of the biofouling layer, and further studies are needed to mitigate the deposition of microorganisms on FO membrane surfaces in OsMFCs.
