硫丹及其主要代谢产物对紫色土中酶活性的影响

采用室内避光培养,研究了硫丹及其主要代谢产物(硫丹硫酸盐和硫丹二醇)在紫色土中的质量浓度变化及其对土壤酶活性的影响。结果表明,α-、β-硫丹在紫色土中的消解过程符合一级反应动力学方程,半衰期分别为32—99d和69—116 d。代谢产物硫丹硫酸盐浓度在前20 d增加较快,30 d后基本趋于稳定;硫丹二醇浓度先增加后减小,15 d时达到最大。5 mg/kg的硫丹处理5 d时对脲酶和硝酸还原酶活性起激活作用,随着培养时间的增加,硫丹处理对脲酶活性从无显著影响逐渐转向抑制,第60天时抑制作用达到最大;高浓度处理(100 mg/kg)强烈抑制脲酶活性,最大降幅达到94.5%。硫丹处理(除5 mg/kg外)对硝酸还原酶活性起抑制作用,浓度越大,抑制作用越强,最大降幅达到89.9%。5 mg/kg的处理抑制多酚氧化酶活性,10—20 mg/kg的处理30 d后由激活逐渐转向抑制;100 mg/kg的处理起激活作用,第15天时酶活性达到最大,随后持续下降,第60天时恢复到对照水平。偏相关分析表明,脲酶、硝酸还原酶活性与硫丹硫酸盐浓度呈显著负相关,硫丹硫酸盐抑制这两种酶的活性;多酚氧化酶活性与α-、β-硫丹、硫丹硫酸盐和硫丹二醇浓度的偏相关性不显著。

Kinetic modeling of aerobic biodegradation of high oil and grease rendering wastewater

Batch scale activated sludge kinetic studies were undertaken for the treatment of pet food wastewater characterized by oil and grease concentrations of up to 21,500 mg/L, COD and BOD concentrations of 75,000 and 60,000 mg/L, respectively as well as effluent from the batch dissolved air flotation (DAF) system. The conducted kinetics studies showed that Haldane Model fit the substrates and biomass data better than Monod model in DAF-pretreated wastewater, while the modified hydrolysis Monod model better fit the raw wastewater kinetic data. For the DAF pretreated batches, Haldane Model kinetic coefficients k, K(S), Y and Ki values of 1.28-5.35 g COD/g VSS-d, 17,833-23,477 mg/L, 0.13-0.41 mg VSS/mg COD and 48,168 mg/L, respectively were obtained reflecting the slow biodegradation rate. Modified hydrolysis Monod model kinetic constants for the raw wastewater i.e., k, K(S), Y, and K(H) varied from 1-1.3 g COD/g VSS-d, 5580-5600 mg COD/l, 0.08-0.85 mg VSS/mg COD, and 0.21-0.66 d(-1), respectively.     

Monitoring the denitrification of wastewater containing high concentrations of nitrate with methanol in a sulfur-packed reactor

Biological denitrification of high nitrate-containing wastewater was examined in a sulfur-packed column using a smaller amount of methanol than required stoichiometrically for heterotrophic denitrification. In the absence of methanol, the observed nitrate removal efficiency was only about 40%, and remained at 400 mg NO(3)(-)-N/l, which was due to an alkalinity deficiency of the pH buffer and of CO(2) as a carbon source. Complete denitrification was achieved by adding approximately 1.4 g methanol/g nitrate-nitrogen (NO(3)(-)-N) to a sulfur-packed reactor. As the methanol concentration increased, the overall nitrate removal efficiency increased. As influent methanol concentrations increased from 285 to 570, 855, and 1,140 mg/l, the value of Delta mg alkalinity as CaCO(3) consumed/Delta mg NO(3)(-)-N removed increased from -1.94 to -0.84, 0.24, and 0.96, and Delta mg SO(4)(2-) produced/Delta mg NO(3)(-)-N removed decreased from 4.42 to 3.57, 2.58, and 1.26, respectively. These results imply the co-occurrence of simultaneous autotrophic and heterotrophic denitrification. Sulfur-utilizing autotrophic denitrification in the presence of a small amount of methanol is very effective at decreasing both sulfate production and alkalinity consumption. Most of methanol added was removed completely in the effluent. A small amount of nitrite accumulated in the mixotrophic column, which was less than 20 mg NO(2)(-) -N/l, while under heterotrophic denitrification conditions, nitrite accumulated steadily and increased to 60 mg NO(2)(-) -N/l with increasing column height.     

Sulfate-reducing bacteria in gypsum karst lakes of northern Lithuania

Microbiological studies were performed in three small gypsum karst lakes in northern Lithuania, most typical of the region. Samples were taken in different seasons of 2001. The conditions for microbial growth in the lakes are determined by elevated content of salts (from 0.5 to 2.0 g/l), dominated by SO(2-)4 and Ca2+ ions (up to 1.4 and 0.6 g/l, respectively). The elevated sulfate concentration is favorable for sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRBs). Summer and winter stratification gives rise to anaerobic water layers enriched in products of anaerobic degradation: H2S and CH4. The lakes under study contain abundant SRBs not only in bottom sediments (from 10(3) to 10(7) cells/dm3) but also in the water column (from 10(2) to 10(6) cells/ml). The characteristic spatial and temporal variations in the rate of sulfate reduction were noted. The highest rates of this process were recorded in summer: 0.95-2.60 mg S(2-)/dm3 per day in bottom sediments and up to 0.49 mg S(2-)/l per day in the water column. The maximum values (up to 11.36 mg S(2-)/dm3) were noted in areas where bottom sediments were enriched in plankton debris. Molecular analysis of conservative sequences of the gene for 16S RNA in sulfate-reducing microorganisms grown on lactate allowed them to be identified as Desulfovibrio desulfuricans.     

Phenol utilisation by fungi isolated from activated sludge

The paper presents the efficiency of phenol removal (concentrations from 500 to 2000 mg/l) by fungi isolated from activated sludge purifying wastewater with high phenol concentration. Five fungal strains were isolated and identified. All isolated strains appeared to be Moniliales from the class of Fungi Imperfecti (Candida sp., Monosporium sp., Trichosporon sp.) Stationary cultures of the individual strains and their mixtures were maintained in Czapek medium containing phenol in concentration from 500 to 2000 mg/l. All isolated strains (except one) were capable of utilising phenol up to a concentration of 1500 mg/l. Depending on investigated strain, phenol in concentration of 500 mg/l was decomposed during 4-25 days, 750 mg/l during 4-14 days. After 20 days, a phenol decline of 1000 mg/l was observed. After 16 days, the phenol decline was 1500 mg/l. Higher phenol concentrations (1500 mg/l) were utilised only by a mixture of two strains. The investigated fungal strains showed good efficiency of phenol removal from high phenol concentration in wastewater and they may be proposed for use in the process of purifying wastewater of this type.     

Modeling reduction of uranium U(VI) under variable sulfate concentrations by sulfate-reducing bacteria

The kinetics for the reduction of sulfate alone and for concurrent uranium [U(VI)] and sulfate reduction, by mixed and pure cultures of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) at 21 +/- 3 degrees C were studied. The mixed culture contained the SRB Desulfovibrio vulgaris along with a Clostridium sp. determined via 16S ribosomal DNA analysis. The pure culture was Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (ATCC 7757). A zero-order model best fit the data for the reduction of sulfate from 0.1 to 10 mM. A lag time occurred below cell concentrations of 0.1 mg (dry weight) of cells/ml. For the mixed culture, average values for the maximum specific reaction rate, V(max), ranged from 2.4 +/- 0.2 micromol of sulfate/mg (dry weight) of SRB. h(-1)) at 0.25 mM sulfate to 5.0 +/- 1.1 micromol of sulfate/mg (dry weight) of SRB. h(-1) at 10 mM sulfate (average cell concentration, 0.52 mg [dry weight]/ml). For the pure culture, V(max) was 1.6 +/- 0.2 micromol of sulfate/mg (dry weight) of SRB. h(-1) at 1 mM sulfate (0.29 mg [dry weight] of cells/ml). When both electron acceptors were present, sulfate reduction remained zero order for both cultures, while uranium reduction was first order, with rate constants of 0.071 +/- 0.003 mg (dry weight) of cells/ml. min(-1) for the mixed culture and 0.137 +/- 0.016 mg (dry weight) of cells/ml. min(-1) (U(0) = 1 mM) for the D. desulfuricans culture. Both cultures exhibited a faster rate of uranium reduction in the presence of sulfate and no lag time until the onset of U reduction in contrast to U alone. This kinetics information can be used to design an SRB-dominated biotreatment scheme for the removal of U(VI) from an aqueous source.     

Performance and ethanol oxidation kinetics of a sulfate-reducing fluidized-bed reactor treating acidic metal-containing wastewater

The treatment of simulated acidic wastewater (pH 2.5–5)containing sulfate (1.0–2.2 g l^-1), zinc (15–340 mg l ^-1) and iron (57 mg l ^-1) was studied in a sulfate-reducing fluidized-bed reactor (FBR) at 35 °C.The original lactate feed for enrichment and maintenance of the FBRculture was replaced stepwise with ethanol over 50 days. The robustnessof the process was studied by increasing stepwise the Zn, sulfate andethanol feed concentrations and decreasing the feed pH. The following precipitation rates were obtained: 360 mg l ^-1 d ^-1 for Zn and 86 mg l ^-1 d ^-1 for Fe, with over 99.8% Zn and Fe removal, with a hydraulic retention time of 16 h. Under these conditions, 77–95% of the electrons were accepted by sulfate reduction. The alkalinity produced from ethanol oxidation increased the wastewater pH from 2.5 to 7.5–8.5. Michaelis–Menten constants (K_m) determined in batch FBR experiments, were 4.3–7.1 mg l ^-1 and 2.7–3.5 mg l ^-1 for ethanol and acetateoxidation, respectively. The maximum oxidation velocities (V_max)were 0.19–0.22 mg gVS ^-1 min ^-1 and0.033–0.035 mg gVS ^-1 min ^-1, for ethanol and acetate, respectively. In summary, the FBR process produced a good quality effluent as indicated by its low organic content and Zn and Fe concentrations below0.1 mg l ^-1.     

Effects of hydraulic retention time and sulfide toxicity on ethanol and acetate oxidation in sulfate-reducing metal-precipitating fluidized-bed reactor

The effects of hydraulic retention time (HRT) and sulfide toxicity on ethanol and acetate utilization were studied in a sulfate-reducing fluidized-bed reactor (FBR) treating acidic metal-containing wastewater. The effects of HRT were determined with continuous flow FBR experiments. The percentage of ethanol oxidation was 99.9% even at a HRT of 6.5 h (loading of 2.6 g ethanol L(-1) d(-1)), while acetate accumulated in the FBR with HRTs below 12 h (loading of 1.4 g ethanol L(-1) d(-1)). Partial acetate utilization was accompanied by decreased concentrations of dissolved sulfide (DS) and alkalinity in the effluent, and eventually resulted in process failure when HRT was decreased to 6.1 h (loading of 2.7 g ethanol L(-1) d(-1)). Zinc and iron precipitation rates increased to over 600 mg L(-1) d(-1) and 300 mg L(-1) d(-1), respectively, with decreasing HRT. At HRT of 6.5 h, percent metal precipitation was over 99.9%, and effluent metal concentrations remained below 0.08 mg L(-1). Under these conditions, the alkalinity produced by substrate utilization increased the wastewater pH from 3 to 7.9-8.0. The percentage of electron flow from ethanol to sulfate reduction averaged 76 +/- 10% and was not affected by the HRT. The lowest HRT did not result in significant biomass washout from the FBR. The effect of sulfide toxicity on the sulfate-reducing culture was studied with batch kinetic experiments in the FBR. Noncompetitive inhibition model described well the sulfide inhibition of the sulfate-reducing culture. (DS) inhibition constants (K(i)) for ethanol and acetate oxidation were 248 mg S L(-1) and 356 mg S L(-1), respectively, and the corresponding K(i) values for H(2)S were 84 mg S L(-1) and 124 mg S L(-1). In conclusion, ethanol oxidation was more inhibited by sulfide toxicity than the acetate oxidation.     

Neural network prediction of thermophilic (65 degrees C) sulfidogenic fluidized-bed reactor performance for the treatment of metal-containing wastewater

The performance of a fluidized-bed reactor (FBR) based sulfate reducing bioprocess was predicted using artificial neural network (ANN). The FBR was operated at high (65 degrees C) temperature and it was fed with iron (40-90 mg/L) and sulfate (1,000-1,500 mg/L) containing acidic (pH = 3.5-6) synthetic wastewater. Ethanol was supplemented as carbon and electron source for sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). The wastewater pH of 4.3-4.4 was neutralized by the alkalinity produced in acetate oxidation and the average effluent pH was 7.8 +/- 0.8. The oxidation of acetate is the rate-limiting step in the sulfidogenic ethanol oxidation by thermophilic SRB, which resulted in acetate accumulation. Sulfate reduction and acetate oxidation rates showed variation depending on the operational conditions with the maximum rates of 1 g/L/d (0.2 g/g volatile solids (VS)/d) and 0.3 g/L/d (0.06 g/g VS/d), respectively. This study presents an ANN model predicting the performance of the reactor and determining the optimal architecture of this model; such as best back-propagation (BP) algorithm and neuron numbers. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was selected as the best of 12 BP algorithms and optimal neuron number was determined as 20. The developed ANN model predicted acetate (R=0.91), sulfate (R=0.95), sulfide (R=0.97), and alkalinity (R=0.94) in the FBR effluent. Hence, the ANN based model can be used to predict the FBR performance, to control the operational conditions for improved process performance.     

Removal of Pb2+ and Ni2+ by bio-sludge in sequencing batch reactor (SBR) and granular activated carbon-SBR (GAC-SBR) systems

Living bio-sludge from domestic wastewater treatment plant was used as adsorbent of heavy metals (Pb(2+), Ni(2+)) and its adsorption capacity was about 10-30% reduced by autoclaving at 110 degrees C for 10 min. The living bio-sludge acclimatized in synthetic industrial estate wastewater (SIEWW) without heavy metals showed the highest Pb(2+) and Ni(2+) adsorption capacities at 840+/-20 and 720+/-10 mg/g bio-sludge, respectively. The adsorbed Pb(2+) and Ni(2+) were easily eluted (70-77%) from bio-sludge by washing with 0.1 mol/l HNO(3) solution. The heavy metals (Pb(2+), Ni(2+)) removal efficiency of both SBR and GAC-SBR systems were increased with the increase of hydraulic retention time (HRT), or the decrease of organic loading. The SBR system showed higher heavy metals removal efficiency than GAC-SBR system at the same organic loading or HRT. The Pb(2+), Ni(2+), BOD(5), COD and TKN removal efficiencies of GAC-SBR system were 88.6+/-0.9%, 94.6+/-0.1%, 91.3+/-1.0%, 81.9+/-1.0% and 62.9+/-0.5%, respectively with industrial estate wastewater (IEWW) with 410 mg/l glucose, 5 mg/l Pb(2+) and 5 mg/l Ni(2+) under organic loading of 1.25 kg BOD(5)/m(3) d (HRT of 3 days). The bio-sludge quality (sludge volume index: SVI) of the system was less than 80 ml/g. The excess sludge from both SBR and GAC-SBR systems with SIEWW under the organic loading of 1.25-2.50 kg BOD(5)/m(3) d contained Pb(2+) and Ni(2+) at concentrations of 240-250 mg Pb(2+)/g bio-sludge and 180-210 mg Ni(2+)/g bio-sludge, respectively.     

Isolation of an aboriginal bacterial community capable of utilizing cyanide, thiocyanate, and ammonia from metallurgical plant wastewater

An aboriginal bacterial community capable of degrading cyanide (10 mg/l) and thiocyanate (2 g/l) and eliminating ammonia (120 mg/l) had been isolated from recycled water samples after blast-furnace gas purification of a metallurgical plant wastewater. It was shown that the optimal conditions for this bacterial community were as follows: temperature, 34 degrees C; pH, 8.8-9.0; available organic matter concentration (glucose equivalent), 5 g/l; and dissolved O2 concentration, 8-10 mg/l. This aboriginal community was formed by the bacteria belonging to the genus Pseudomonas.
