投加粉末活性炭对MBR运行性能的影响

试验研究比较了在相同的进水和运行条件下,反应器1(投加粉末活性炭,投加量为12.3 g,使其质量浓度达到1 100 mg/L)和反应器2(未投加粉末活性炭)的膜透水性及对污染物的去除效果,并分析了粉末活性炭可以提高膜过滤性能的相关机理。试验结果表明：反应器1的膜通量衰减速率明显小于反应器2;投加粉末活性炭改变了混合液的性质,也大大降低了混合液中胞外聚合物和微细胶体的含量,从而减缓了膜通量的下降速度,可以使系统长时间地以相对高的膜通量运行。     

Effects of freshwater Synechococcus sp. cyanobacteria pH buffering on CaCO3 precipitation: Implications for CO2 sequestration

In the present study, a mixed-flow steady-state bio-reactor was designed to biomineralize CO₂ as a consequence of photosynthesis from active Synechococcus sp. Dissolved CO₂, generated by constant air bubbling of inorganic and cyanobacteria stock solutions, was the only source of inorganic carbon. The release of hydroxide ion by cyanobacteria from photosynthesis maintained highly alkaline pH conditions. In the presence of Ca²⁺ and carbonate species, this led to calcite supersaturation under steady state conditions. Ca²⁺ remained constant throughout the experiments showing the presence of steady state conditions. Similarly, the Synechococcus sp. biomass concentration remained stable within uncertainty. A gradual pH decrease was observed for the highest Ca²⁺ condition coinciding with the formation of CaCO₃. The high degree of supersaturation, under steady-state conditions, contributed to the stabilization of calcite and maintained a constant driving force for the mineral nucleation and growth. For the highest Ca²⁺ condition a fast crystal growth rate was consistent with rapid calcite precipitation as suggested further by affinity calculations. Although saturation state based kinetic precipitation models cannot accurately reflect the controls on crystal growth kinetics or reliably predict growth mechanisms, the relatively reaction orders obtained from modeling of calcite precipitation rates as function of decreasing carbonate concentration suggest that the precipitation occurred via surface-controlled rate determining reactions. These high reaction orders support in addition the hypothesis that crystal growth proceeded through complex surface controlled mechanisms. In conclusion, the steady state supersaturated conditions generated by a constant cyanobacteria biomass and metabolic activity strongly suggest that these microorganisms could be used for the development of efficient CO₂ sequestration methods in a controlled large-scale environment.     

一株硫酸盐还原菌的分离及生理生态特性的研究

硫酸盐有机废水生物处理技术一直是人们关注的热点,该种废水处理的关键是如何在有效地去除COD的同时,高效地去除SO_4~(2-)厌氧生物处理系统中的硫酸盐还原菌(Sulfte-Reducing Bacteria,SRB)在一定的条件下可以有效地将SO_4~(2-)还原而从废水中去除。产酸脱硫反应器是一个复杂的生态学系统,在这个生态系统中,SRB起着最主要的生态学作用,要研究产酸脱硫反应器中的各种群的微生物的生理生态学,是非常复杂而且难以实现的。为了更方便地研究产酸脱硫反应器中的微生物生理生态学,比较好的做法是把在反应器中数量上占优势,并且起主要功能的种群分离出来,对它们进行单独和配合研究。本实验就是利用滚管法和改进的Hungate技术,在COD/SO_4~(2-)=3的稳定阶段,对产酸脱硫反应器中的SRB进行了分离,分离出在数量上占优势的SRB,命名为SRB-ZH07。在厌氧试管和三角瓶中,进行了SRB-ZH07生理生态学研究。pH值对SRB-ZH07的生长和硫酸盐去除率的影响,pH为7.0左右SRB-ZH07的生长状况最好,在34h,菌液的OD_(600nm)达到0.827,而其它pH下的OD_(600nm)...
