解析参数对活性焦再生过程及再生效果的影响

 活性焦的热解析参数对再生活性焦的脱硫脱硝性能和机械强度至关重要。为了明确解析参数对活性焦再生过程和再生效果的影响规律,通过热解析试验探究活性焦硫残余比例、CO₂和CO生成量及再生活性焦脱硫脱硝性能随解析温度和解析时间的变化规律,继而明确适宜的活性焦热解析参数。结果表明,活性焦升温解析过程中,脱硫产物在317 ℃左右迅速分解,随后分解速率下降;在进入恒温解析阶段后脱硫产物分解速率先快速下降,而后进入缓慢解析状态。硫残余比例随恒温解析温度的升高而下降,在530 ℃下解析3 h可使脱硫产物完全解析;解析温度高于430 ℃后,活性焦表面的酚基、醌基、内酯基等含氧官能团分解量明显增加,并随恒温解析温度的升高而持续增加,分解所生成的CO和CO₂也随之大幅增加,这将使活性焦的孔隙结构进一步发展,继而不利于活性焦机械强度的保持;解析温度低于530 ℃时,硫残余比例随解析温度的升高而持续降低,使再生活性焦的脱硫脱硝性能持续提高;解析温度高于530 ℃后,含氧官能团分解量随解析温度的升高而持续增加,这将有利于提高活性焦表面SO₂氧化反应速率,继而使再生活性焦的脱硫性能持续升高,但酚基、内酯基等酸性含氧官能团的分解使再生活性焦对NH₃的吸附性能降低,进而使其脱硝性能降低。在兼顾再生活性焦脱硫脱硝性能、机械强度和生产效率等多方面因素时,430 ℃恒温解析3 h是相对较优的解析参数。在此解析条件下,再生活性焦的硫残余比例仅为1.8%,含氧官能团尚未发生大量分解,脱硫脱硝性能相对较为优良。     

SBR反应器中反硝化条件下去除苯酚工艺

基于异养反硝化原理,在序批式间歇反应器(SBR)中对反硝化同时降解苯酚的菌种进行了149 d的驯化,驯化通过逐步提高进水中苯酚和NO3--N的浓度进行.驯化结束后,进水苯酚质量浓度达到360 mg/L,葡萄糖质量浓度达到100 mg/L,NO3--N质量浓度达到240 mg/L,水力停留时间6 h,苯酚和NO3--N去除率均大于98%.反应器运行结果表明:进水苯酚质量浓度低于720 mg/L时,SBR反应器运行稳定;高浓度NO2--N(＞60 mg/L)可以严重影响微生物对苯酚以及NO3--N的去除能力,同时反应器中20.5%～23.5%的COD可被用于微生物的细胞合成.     

Ammonium transformation in paddy soils affected by the presence of nitrate

Coupled nitrification and denitrification is considered as one of the main pathways of nitrogen losses in paddy soils. The effect of NO₃ ^– on NH₄ ⁺ transformation was investigated by using the ¹⁵N technique. The paddy soils were collected from Wuxi (soil pH 5.84) and Yingtan (soil pH 5.02), China. The soils were added with either urea (18.57 mol urea-N enriched with 60 atom% ¹⁵N excess) plus 2.14 mol KNO₃-N (natural abundance) per gram soil (U+NO₃) or urea alone (U). The KNO₃ was added 6 days after urea addition. The incubation was carried out under flooded condition in either air or N₂ gas headspace at 25°C. The results showed that in air headspace, ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ oxidization was so fast that about 10% and 8% of added ¹⁵N in the treatment U could be oxidized during the incubation period of 73 hours after KNO₃ addition in Wuxi and Yingtan soil, respectively. The addition of KNO₃ significantly inhibited ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ oxidation (p<0.01) in air headspace, while it stimulated ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ oxidation in N₂ gas headspace, although the oxidation was depressed by the N₂ gas headspace itself. Therefore, the accumulation of NO₃ ^– would inhibit further nitrification of NH₄ ⁺ at micro-aerobic sites in paddy soils, especially in paddy soils with a low denitrification rate. On the other hand, NO₃ ^– would lead to oxidation of NH₄ ⁺in anaerobic bulk soils.     

生物脱氮工艺的新发展-半硝化和厌氧氨氧化

传统生物脱氮工艺耗能多，反硝化时还消耗碳源，半硝化一厌氧氨氧化（SHARON－ANAMMOX）是一种全新的脱氮工艺，其原理是首先由亚硝化细菌将废水中1／2氨氮氧化为NO2^-，剩余的氨氮与所生成的NO2^-以等摩尔比例ANAMMOX菌作用生成N2，因耗能少且不消耗碳源，故具有可持续发展意义。     

Nitrate leaching from loamy soils as affected by crop rotation and nitrogen fertilizer application

Nitrate leaching as affected by cropping system/crop rotation, history of farmyard manure application or fertilizer nitrogen application (0 N, 0.5 N and 1 N) was studied at nine sites on loamy soils during 1986/87, 1987/88 and 1988/89. Soil solution from 80 to 90 cm soil depth was sampled every second week in the period November to May by the use of porous ceramic cups and analysed for NO₃-N and Cl. Climatical conditions were obtained from standard meteorological observations in the region. Drainage from soil profiles was calculated from measured and simulated values of precipitation and actual evapotranspiration, respectively.The results show that type of crop is of the utmost importance for the leaching magnitude of nitrate as 40% of the total variance in nitrate concentrations in the soil solution could be explained by the type of crop.The second factor of importance was the history of farmyard manure (FYM) application, which was able to explain 28% of the total variation in nitrate concentration in the soil solution. Nitrate concentration/leaching from arable land without FYM ever being applied was considerably lower than from arable land which received periodical FYM applications until the early 70's or from arable land which besides periodical FYM applications in the past presently still receives regular applications of FYM. Only about 1% of the total variation in nitrate concentration in the soil solution was explainable by the level of fertilizer nitrogen application.Differences between years explained 14% of the total variation in nitrate concentration in the soil solution due to differences between the years in soil temperatures and water run-off. The run-off during the autumn and winter of 1986/87, 1987/88 and 1988/89 was 95, 275 and 55 mm, respectively. As expected nitrate leaching increased with increasing run off. However, nitrate leaching at the 275 mm run off was considerably lower than expected, which seems explainable by a substantial denitrification. The soil at the sites in question seems thus partly to purify the soil solution for nitrate before it leaves the root zone at the observed high run off conditions.     

Determination of dinitrogen emission and retention in floodwater and porewater of a lowland rice field fertilized with15N-urea

This paper reports a study on the distribution of dinitrogen between the atmosphere, floodwater and porewater of the soil in a flooded rice field after addition of¹⁵N-labelled urea into the floodwater.Microplots (0.086 m²) were established in a rice field near Griffith, N.S.W., and labelled urea (80 kg N ha^–1 containing 79.25 atoms %¹⁵N) was added to the floodwater when the rice was at the panicle initiation stage. Emission of nitrous oxide and dinitrogen was measured directly during the day and overnight, using a cover collection method and gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric analytical methods. Ammonia volatilization was calculated with a bulk aerodynamic method from measurements of wind speed and floodwater pH, temperature and ammoniacal nitrogen concentration. Seven days after urea application the¹⁵N₂ content of the floodwater and soil porewater was determined and total fertilizer nitrogen loss was calculated from an isotopic balance.Throughout the experimental period gas fluxes were low; nitrous oxide, ammonia and dinitrogen flux densities were less than 5, 170 and 720 g N ha^–1 d^–1, respectively. The greatest dinitrogen flux density was observed two days after urea addition and this declined to ~ 100 g ha^–1 d^–1 after seven days.The data indicate that, of the urea nitrogen added, 0.02% was lost to the atmosphere as nitrous oxide, 0.9% was lost by ammonia volatilization, and 3.6% was lost as dinitrogen gas during the 7 days of measurement. At the end of this period 0.028% and 0.002% of the added nitrogen was retained as dinitrogen gas in the floodwater and soil porewater respectively. Recovery of the¹⁵N applied as nitrogen gases, plant uptake, and soil and floodwater constituents totaled about 94% of the nitrogen added.     

Denitrification in shallow groundwater in a coastal agricultural area in Japan

In a coastal agricultural area in the central part of Japan (Shizuoka), we found decreasing nitrate concentration with depth in a shallow groundwater, where the depth to water table varied between 0.6 and 1.2 m below ground surface. High nitrate concentrations (5–29 mg N L^–1) were often observed in the upper layer (0–2 m) of the groundwater, but the concentration decreased to less than 1 mg N L^–1 in the deeper layer. Ammonium was scarcely detected, and the concentration of dissolved oxygen was usually low (< 1 mgO₂ L^–1) in the groundwater. Nitrate in the groundwater often had very heavy nitrogen stable isotope ratios (>20{}). There was a negative relationship between nitrogen stable isotope ratio of nitrate and its concentration. When nitrate was injected into the groundwater with acetylene and bromide (a conservative tracer), nitrate concentration decreased to 20% of the initial level within 5 days, accompanied by the increase in nitrite and nitrous oxide concentration and a little change in bromide concentration. These results indicate that microbial denitrification plays a potential role in the decrease of nitrate in shallow groundwater at the study site.     

Reducing N losses (NH3, N2o, N2) and immobilization from slurry through optimized application techniques

In model, pot and field trials the effect of C reduced slurries and different application techniques on N losses and N immobilization were investigated. The C reduced slurries were produced by mechanical separation. Ammonia losses from surface-applied and injected cattle slurry were measured under field conditions using a wind tunnel system. Injection of slurry was the most efficient way to reduce volatilization of ammonia. After 6 days the total loss from the injected slurry was only 9% of that from surface band application. Furthermore, additional losses of N may occur through denitrification, specially after injection of slurry which may create an anaerobic environment abundant in readily oxidizable C. Therefore denitrification measurements by the acetylene inhibition technique were conducted. Until 100 days after application the loss from the injected slurry was 7.3 kg compared to 4.5 kg N ha^–1 from surface band applied slurry. After injection, denitrification was only 4.1 kg N ha^–1 for C reduced compared to 6.5 kg N ha^–1 for normal slurry. In pot trials the ammonium-¹⁵N of normal slurry and C-reduced slurry was utilized by oats between 52 and 60%, the ammonium sulfate by 67%. The increased biomass C confirmed a greater immobilization of the NH₄-N of the normal slurry resulting in a lower initial efficiency.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. A. Amberger on his 75th birthday     

聚糖菌反硝化影响因素及内碳源转化特性

在SBR反应器中以乙酸钠为碳源、\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_3^{-}-N为电子受体成功富集了反硝化聚糖菌，并采用批次实验进一步考察了进水C/N比（3.3,6.7,10）、电子受体（\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_3^{-}-N、\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_2^{-}-N）、碳源类型（乙酸钠、葡萄糖）对反硝化聚糖菌活性的影响及内碳源转化特性。实验结果表明，进水C/N比越高，系统\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_x^{-}-N去除率越高，厌氧段合成PHB越多，但进水C/N比过高会导致普通反硝化菌占优势，影响内碳源反硝化效率，进水C/N比为6.7较为合适；以\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_3^{-}-N为电子受体长期培养的DGAOs系统未经\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_2^{-}-N驯化，对\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_2^{-}-N同样具有良好的反硝化性能，在投加与\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_3^{-}-N相同浓度的\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_2^{-}-N后，系统\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_x^{-}-N去除率达89.6%；当以葡萄糖为碳源时，DPAOs在厌氧段合成的PHB的量仅为以乙酸钠为碳源时合成PHB量的79.5%，且厌氧段葡萄糖利用率仅为72.8%，远远小于乙酸钠的利用率。     

Ultrasonic treatment of an aerobic activated sludge in a batch reactor

Low-frequency and high-intensity ultrasonic treatment of sewage plant sludge disrupts the flocs and lyses the bacterial cells. This results in a substantial reduction in the volume of the flocs and a release of both inter and intracellular materials. The evolution of the particles size (flocs and isolated microorganisms) is evaluated by a Malvern Mastersizer granulometer and the release of material is quantified by measuring the chemical oxygen demand and the proteins solubilized in the solution. In the first part, the disruption of the particles was undertaken with low concentrated sludge from an aeration tank in order to comprehend better the mechanisms and to modelize them. In the second part, the influence of the initial concentration is studied by working with higher concentrated sludge from a settler. Ultrasonic treatment also causes a change in the settleability and filterability of the sludge which the effects are evaluated in the last part.
