Inactivation and injury assessment of Escherichia coli during solar and photocatalytic disinfection in LDPE bags

Solar disinfection (SODIS) of Escherichia coli suspensions in low-density polyethylene bag reactors was investigated as a low-cost disinfection method suitable for application in developing countries. The efficiency of a range of SODIS reactor configurations was examined (single skin (SS), double skin, black-backed single skin, silver-backed single skin (SBSS) and composite-backed single skin) using E. coli suspended in model and real surface water. Titanium dioxide was added to the reactors to improve the efficiency of the SODIS process. The effect of turbidity was also assessed. In addition to viable counts, E. coli injury was characterised through spread-plate analysis using selective and non-selective media. The optimal reactor configuration was determined to be the SBSS bag (t₅₀ = 9.0 min) demonstrating the importance of UVA photons, as opposed to infrared in the SODIS disinfection mechanism. Complete inactivation (6.5-log) was achieved in the presence of turbidity (50 NTU) using the SBSS bag within 180 min simulated solar exposure. The addition of titanium dioxide (0.025 g L⁻¹) significantly enhanced E. coli inactivation in the SS reactor, with 6-log inactivation observed within 90 min simulated solar exposure. During the early stages of both SODIS and photocatalytic disinfection, injured E. coli were detected; however, irreversible injury was caused and re-growth was not observed. Experiments under solar conditions were undertaken with total inactivation (6.5-log) observed in the SS reactor within 240 min, incomplete inactivation (4-log) was observed in SODIS bottles exposed to the same solar conditions.     

氨氮浓度对次氯酸钠消毒中水的影响

研究了氨氮浓度对次氯酸钠消毒中水的影响,讨论了中水氨氮浓度、氯胺浓度、总余氯浓度、消毒接触时间和总大肠菌群指标的变化关系。结果表明,氨氮随消毒接触时间呈先降低再升高的趋势,中水氨氮浓度越高,其变化幅度越小,反之,则变化幅度较大;氯胺浓度随消毒接触时间的延长先升高再降低,而总余氯量则逐渐降低,并有一定的持续消毒作用;此外,总余氯随次氯酸钠投加量的增加呈先升高后降低再逐渐升高的趋势,整个反应过程符合折点加氯消毒理论;当次氯酸钠投加量与氨氮的比值（以后简称C1／N）为25／1时,氨氮消耗掉的次氯酸钠量最多,生成的总余氯量最少;当C1／N比大于25／1时,消毒后中水氨氮浓度为零,反之,则随C1／N比升高逐渐降低;而当氨氮浓度相同时,中水消毒达标的主要影响因素是水中总大肠菌群的数量。     

Modeling the Formation of Chlorination By-Products During Enhanced Coagulation

Because of increasing need to balance health risks for pathogen control and disinfection by-products (DBP) formation in drinking water supplies, water utilities are forced to closely examine and optimize their disinfection practices. This research was designed to investigate the effects of independent variables of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), ferric chloride dosage, chlorine dose, and reaction time on trihalomethanes (THMs) formation in Terkos Lake Water (TLW) of Istanbul City. A statistically-based empirical model was developed for predicting THM formation during enhanced coagulation. The R ² and F value of model were 0.762 and 460, respectively. The model was found to be statistically significant for all four variables, and model predictions appear to be most accurate for this study. A multiple linear model exhibited the best fit of data. It was observed that THM formation depended primarily on DOC removal. Model calibration, testing and validation were accomplished by using independent data set.     

避光处理对污水紫外线消毒后大肠杆菌光复活的影响研究

以大肠杆菌为受试菌种,研究了避光处理对紫外线消毒后三级出水中细菌光复活的影响.将紫外线消毒后的水样避光放置一定时间后再置于光复活条件下,研究了大肠杆菌的复活特性.结果表明,避光放置6h以内,见光后大肠杆菌的光复活能力即刻恢复,并最终达到与非避光处理基本相同的最大复活值;5 mJ/cm2和20mJ/cm2紫外线剂量照射后,最大复活百分比分别为31.1%和0.45%,复活速率分别为1.67×104CFU·(mL·h)-1和125 CFU·(mL·h)-1.延长避光时间至24 h,5 mJ/cm2和20mJ/cm2紫外线剂量照射后的大肠杆菌见光后,最大复活百分比分别减小到10.0%和0.3%,复活速率分别减小到830CFU·(mL·h)-1和20CFU·(mL·h)-1.以上结果表明,延迟消毒后出水见光时间,只能在一定程度上推迟或削弱大肠杆菌的光复活,并不能有效保证复活受到抑制,即紫外线消毒后出水中的微生物仍然存在高的复活风险.     

城市污水臭氧消毒宏观动力学探索

消毒是城市污水回用的必要环节。本文以某污水厂出水为研究对象，采用臭氧(O3)作为消毒剂，考查了臭氧在实验水中的溶解和衰减过程，不同通气量和不同pH值条件下臭氧对城市污水厂生化处理后出水中大肠菌群的消毒过程和消毒效果。实验结果显示，臭氧对水中大肠菌群的消毒速度快、消毒效果十分显著；通入水中的气量低于10l/h时，灭菌率随通气量的提高而提高；在水质偏酸性时，有利于臭氧的溶解和提高大肠菌群的去除率；通气量在5l/h—30l/h，处理时间在10min以内时实验条件下臭氧消毒宏观动力学方程为—logS＝Kt，式中K＝0．2385min^-1—0．4674min^-1。

KMnO4-PAC对高原喀斯特湖库DOM的DBPsFP控制

以云贵高原典型喀斯特湖库红枫湖取水口溶解性有机质（DOM）为研究对象,调查不同组合方式下高锰酸钾-聚合氯化铝（KMnO₄-PAC）对消毒副产物的生成潜能（DBPsFP）变化和平均组成分布,并通过红外光谱（FTIR）和三维荧光光谱（3D-EEM）对部分样品进行化学表征,推断其影响机制.结果表明：在0.1,0.2,0.4mg/L KMnO₄投加量下,DBPsFP降低17.5~73%,DOM的卤代活性化学结构和官能团部分被有效钝化;PAC的网捕和卷扫效应使DBPsFP进一步减少27.9~86.1%,组合工艺对DBPs的生成潜能影响大小为：三卤甲烷（THM₄） > 卤乙酸（HAA₉） > 卤乙腈（HAN₄）/卤代酮（HK₂）/三氯硝基甲烷（TCNM）.FTIR的结果表明预氧化后3300cm^-1处的透过率降低,指纹区1000~1300cm^-1处的峰频提升,表明分子中的O-H、COOH和C-O官能团增加,共轭不饱和结构在KMnO₄作用下部分消失.3D-EEM验证了外源有机物（腐殖酸）在DOM中占比随KMnO₄浓度梯度升高而下降,同时类蛋白结构的吸收峰强度增加,说明最终DBPs贡献可能源于DOM中剩余的小分子类蛋白（氨基酸）.

不同预氧化剂对长江原水氯(胺)化DBPs生成潜能的影响

以取自上海市杨树浦水厂的长江原水为研究对象,对比分析了3种常见预氧化剂二氧化氯(ClO2)、高锰酸钾(KMnO4)及氯(Cl2)预氧化对削减氯化和氯胺化消毒副产物(DBPs)生成潜能的效果情况.氯化培养实验结果表明,3种预氧化剂的处理对DBPs总量的去除效果均不显著,经ClO2、Cl2及KMnO4作用后可分别削减8.4%、5.7%及3.9%,效果为ClO2>Cl2>KMnO4.对于长江原水使用氯化消毒时,采用ClO2作为预氧化剂可取得对消毒副产物较好的去除效果.氯胺化培养实验结果表明,3种预氧化剂处理对长江原水氯胺化DBPs的生成潜能影响有较大差异,经ClO2和KMnO4作用后可分别削减18.1%及4.1%,而预氯化后则增高12.3%,对于长江原水使用氯胺化消毒时,采用ClO2作为预氧化剂可取得对消毒副产物较为明显的去除效果.同时,应尽量避免使用预氯化后加氯胺化的组合,以防止在水处理过程中生成更多的DBPs而影响出水水质.
