透气真空快速泥水分离技术室内模型试验研究

透气真空快速泥水分离技术适用于高含水率高粘粒含量疏浚淤泥的堆场处理,可以快速减小堆场中淤泥的体积,加速堆场的周转利用,并能解决常规真空处理方法中存在的滤层淤堵问题。针对此技术,研制了室内模型试验装置,该装置包含5个主要部分:模型箱、真空抽气系统、透气管道系统、土工织物过滤层系统、监控测读系统,其中模型箱用来盛放淤泥试样;真空抽气系统提供真空负压;3阀门透气真空管道系统能够控制真空度和气流作用,在透气管道中形成真空与气流共同作用的环境;土工织物过滤层系统过滤淤泥中的土颗粒并排出水分;监控测读系统量测真空度、抽水量以及淤泥厚度。通过室内模型试验,验证了透气真空快速泥水分离技术的有效性。     

Trans-generational and neonatal humoral immune responses in West Greenland sledge dogs (Canis familiaris) exposed to organohalogenated environmental contaminants

Previous investigations in the Arctic have suggested OHC (organohalogen contaminant) induced immune toxic effects on e.g. polar bears (Ursus maritimus). We therefore studied the dietary impact from minke whale blubber (Balaenoptera acutorostrata), rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and OHCs, on the humoral immunity of 7 captive West Greenland sledge dog (Canis familiaris) bitches and their 4 pups constituting a sentinel model species for polar bears. A control group was composed of 8 bitches and their 5 pups all fed pork (Suis scrofa) fat. The study included serum IgG measurements (bitches and pups) and specific immune responses towards tetanus toxoid (bitches) and diphtheria toxoid (pups) as well as influenza virus (pups). The analyses showed that IgG concentrations were non-significantly lowest in exposed bitches and pups (t-test: all p > 0.05). In addition, significant lower antibody response was detected in exposed pups immunized with influenza virus at age 3 months (t-test: both p < 0.05). No clear group differences were found for tetanus toxoid in bitches and diphtheria toxoid in pups. The results suggest that the humoral immune system of sledge dogs may be suppressed by the dietary blubber composition of OHCs and polyunsaturated fatty acids while a larger follow-up study is recommended in order to investigate this relationship further.
