This study verifies the potential applicability of horizontal-flow anaerobic immobilized biomass (HAIB) reactors to pentachlorophenol (PCP) dechlorination. Two bench-scale HAIB reactors (R1 and R2) were filled with cubic polyurethane foam matrices containing immobilized anaerobic sludge. The reactors were then continuously fed with synthetic wastewater consisting of PCP, glucose, acetic acid, and formic acid as co-substrates for PCP anaerobic degradation. Before being immobilized in polyurethane foam matrices, the biomass was exposed to wastewater containing PCP in reactors fed at a semi-continuous rate of 2.0 μg PCP g−1 VS. The applied PCP loading rate was increased from 0.05 to 2.59 mg PCP l−1 day−1 for R1, and from 0.06 to 4.15 mg PCP l−1 day−1 for R2. The organic loading rates (OLR) were 1.1 and 1.7 kg COD m−3 day−1 at hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 24 h for R1 and 18 h for R2. Under such conditions, chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiencies of up to 98% were achieved in the HAIB reactors. Both reactors exhibited the ability to remove 97% of the loaded PCP. Dichlorophenol (DCP) was the primary chlorophenol detected in the effluent. The adsorption of PCP and metabolites formed during PCP degradation in the packed bed was negligible for PCP removal efficiency.  相似文献

Biological kinetic (bio-kinetic) study of the anaerobic stabilization pond treatment of palm oil mill effluent (POME) was carried out in a laboratory anaerobic bench scale reactor (ABSR). The reactor was operated at different feed flow-rates of 0.63, 0.76, 0.95, 1.27, 1.9 and 3.8 l of raw POME for a day. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) as influent substrates was selected for bio-kinetic study. The investigation showed that the growth yield (YG), specific biomass decay (b), maximum specific biomass growth rate (μmax), saturation constant (Ks) and critical retention time (Θc) were in the range of 0.990 g VSS/g CODremoved day, 0.024 day−1, 0.524 day−1, 203.433 g COD l−1 and 1.908 day, respectively.  相似文献

The effect of electrodialytic treatment in terms of a current density, pH and Na2H2EDTA addition on the methanogenic activity of copper-amended anaerobic granular sludge taken from the UASB reactor from paper mill was evaluated. Moreover, the specific energy consumption and simplified operational and treatment costs were calculated. Addition of Na2H2EDTA (at pH 7.7) to copper-amended sludge resulted in the highest microbial activity (62 mg CH4-COD g VSS−1 day−1) suggesting that Na2H2EDTA decreased the toxic effects of copper on the methanogenic activity of the anaerobic granular sludge. The highest methane production (159 %) was also observed upon Na2H2EDTA addition and simultaneous electricity application (pH 7.7). The energy consumption during the treatment was 560, 840, 1400 and 1680 kW h m−3 at current densities of 0.23, 0.34, 0.57 and 0.69 mA cm−2, respectively. This corresponded to a treatment costs in terms of electricity expenditure from 39.2 to 117.6 € per cubic meter of sludge.  相似文献

The biogeochemical processes that drive nutrient transformations and recycling in organic marine sediment-water environments were studied for 17 months in a zero-effluent intensive recirculating culture system. The system consisted of a 10 m3 gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) tank coupled to aerobic and anaerobic water treatment elements. Nutrients and alkalinity were measured in the system to quantify the main biogeochemical processes. Fractions of the carbon fed in feed were found in fish (18.3%) and in sludge (11%); the missing carbon was respired by fish (45%) and by aerobic (8.4%) and anaerobic (7.7%) microorganisms. Fractions of the nitrogen fed in feed were found in fish (15.4%) and in sludge (14.3%); the missing nitrogen was eliminated by nitrification-denitrification. Most of the phosphorus and ash fed in feed and not found in fish accumulated within the sludge in the system. The rates of nitrification, denitrification and sulphate reduction increased with time, reaching 0.3 g N m− 2 d− 1, 53 g N m− 2 d− 1 and 145 g S m− 2 d− 1, respectively. Nitrification developed more rapidly than denitrification, leading at first to nitrate accumulation (to 20 mmol NO3 l− 1 by day 200) and a decrease in alkalinity. Once denitrification surpassed nitrification, nitrate concentrations decreased, eventually being reduced to < 0.3 mmol NO3 l− 1 by day 510, and alkalinity stabilized. Toxic hydrogen sulphide, generated within the anaerobic sludge, was oxidized by oxygen and nitrate as it diffused through the anaerobic-aerobic sediment-water interface. When nitrate levels in the water above the sludge dropped below 2 mmol l− 1, sulphide was also oxidized in the fluidized bed reactor. Denitrification reduced nitrate in the water, respired (jointly with sulphate reduction) carbon in the sludge, oxidized the hydrogen sulphide, and contributed to stabilization of alkalinity and accumulation of polyphosphate in bacteria as a major sink of labile P.  相似文献

Crude glycerol is a major byproduct of the biodiesel industry; previous research has proved the feasibility of producing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6 n − 3) through fermentation of the algae Schizochytrium limacinum on crude glycerol. The objective of this work is to investigate the cell growth kinetics, substrate utilization efficiency, and DHA production of the algae through a continuous culture. Steady-state biomass yield, biomass productivity, growth yield on glycerol, specific glycerol consumption rate, and fatty acid composition were investigated within the range of dilution rate (D) from 0.2 to 0.6 day−1, and the range of feed crude glycerol concentration (S0) from 15 to 120 g/L. The maximum specific growth rate was determined as 0.692 day−1. The cells had a true growth yield of 0.283 g/g but with a relatively high maintenance coefficient (0.2216 day−1). The highest biomass productivity of 3.88 g/L-day was obtained at D = 0.3 day−1 and S0 = 60 g/L, while the highest DHA productivity (0.52 g/L-day) was obtained at D = 0.3 day−1 and S0 = 90 g/L due to the higher DHA content at S0 = 90 g/L. The biomass and DHA productivity of the continuous culture was comparable to those of batch culture, while lower than the fed-batch culture, mainly because of the lower DHA content obtained by the continuous culture. Overall, the results show that continuous culture is a powerful tool to investigate the cell growth kinetics and physiological behaviors of the algae growing on biodiesel-derived crude glycerol.  相似文献

The effects of inorganic nitrogen (N) source (NH4+, NO3 or both) on growth, biomass allocation, photosynthesis, N uptake rate, nitrate reductase activity and mineral composition of Canna indica were studied in hydroponic culture. The relative growth rates (0.05-0.06 g g−1 d−1), biomass allocation and plant morphology of C. indica were indifferent to N nutrition. However, NH4+ fed plants had higher concentrations of N in the tissues, lower concentrations of mineral cations and higher contents of chlorophylls in the leaves compared to NO3 fed plants suggesting a slight advantage of NH4+ nutrition. The NO3 fed plants had lower light-saturated rates of photosynthesis (22.5 μmol m−2 s−1) than NH4+ and NH4+/NO3 fed plants (24.4-25.6 μmol m−2 s−1) when expressed per unit leaf area, but similar rates when expressed on a chlorophyll basis. Maximum uptake rates (Vmax) of NO3 did not differ between treatments (24-35 μmol N g−1 root DW h−1), but Vmax for NH4+ was highest in NH4+ fed plants (81 μmol N g−1 root DW h−1), intermediate in the NH4NO3 fed plants (52 μmol N g−1 root DW h−1), and lowest in the NO3 fed plants (28 μmol N g−1 root DW h−1). Nitrate reductase activity (NRA) was highest in leaves and was induced by NO3 in the culture solutions corresponding to the pattern seen in fast growing terrestrial species. Plants fed with only NO3 had high NRA (22 and 8 μmol NO2 g−1 DW h−1 in leaves and roots, respectively) whereas NRA in NH4+ fed plants was close to zero. Plants supplied with both forms of N had intermediate NRA suggesting that C. indica takes up and assimilate NO3 in the presence of NH4+. Our results show that C. indica is relatively indifferent to inorganic N source, which together with its high growth rate contributes to explain the occurrence of this species in flooded wetland soils as well as on terrestrial soils. Furthermore, it is concluded that C. indica is suitable for use in different types of constructed wetlands.  相似文献

An Enterobacter strain (GY-1) with high activity of decolorization of Reactive Black 5 (RB 5) was isolated from textile wastewater treating sludge. The kinetic characteristics of dye decolorization by the strain GY-1 were determined quantitatively using the diazo dye, RB 5. Effects of different operation parameters (inoculum size, pH, temperature and salinity) and various electron donors on decolorization of the azo dye by GY-1 were systematically investigated to reveal the primary factors that determine the performance of the azo dye decolorization. The decolorization of RB 5 was attributed to extracellular enzymes. A kinetic model was established giving the dependence of decolorization rate on cell mass concentration (first order). Decolorization rate increased with increasing temperature from 20 to 35 °C, which can be predicted by Arrhenius equation with the activation energy (Ea) of 8.50 kcal mol−1 and the frequency factor (A0) of 6.28 × 107 mg l g MLSS−1 h−1. Michaelis-Menten kinetics and Eadie-Hofstee plot were used to determine Vmax, 1.05 mg l−1 h−1 and Km, 24.06 mg l−1.  相似文献

Salt marshes near urban, industrial and mining areas are often affected both by heavy metals and by eutrophic water. The aim of this study was to assess and evaluate the main processes involved in the decrease of nitrate concentration in pore water of mine wastes flooded with eutrophic water, considering the presence or absence of plant rhizhosphere. Basic (pH ∼ 7.8) carbonated loam mine wastes and free-carbonated acidic (pH ∼ 6.2) sandy-loam mine wastes were collected from polluted coastal salt marshes of SE Spain which regularly receive nutrient-enriched water. The wastes were put in pots and flooded for 15 weeks with eutrophic water (dissolved organic carbon ∼26 mg L−1, PO43− ∼23 mg L−1, NO3 ∼180 mg L−1). Three treatments were assayed for each type of waste: pots with Sarcocornia fruticosa, pots with Phragmites australis and unvegetated pots. Soluble organic carbon, nitrate, soluble Cd, Pb and Zn, pH and Eh were monitored. But the 2nd day of flooding, nitrate concentrations had decreased between 70% and 90% (equivalent to 1.01-1.12 g N-NO3 m−2 day−1) with respect to the content in the water used for flooding, except in unvegetated pots with acidic wastes. Denitrification was the main mechanism associated with the removal of nitrate. The role of vegetation in improving the rhizospheric environment was relevant in the acidic wastes because higher sand content, lower pH and higher soluble metal concentrations might strongly hinder microbial activity Hence, revegetation of salt marshes polluted by acidic sandy mining wastes might improve the capacity of this type of environment to act as a green filter against excessive nitrate contents flowing through them.  相似文献

The effects of chitosan addition on treatment of palm oil mill effluent were investigated using two lab-scale upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactors: (1) with chitosan addition at the dosage of 2 mg chitosan per g volatile suspended solids on the first day of the operation (R1), (2) without chitosan addition (the control, R2). The reactors were inoculated with mesophilic anaerobic sludge which was acclimatized to a thermophilic condition with a stepwise temperature increase of 5 °C from 37 to 57 °C. The OLR ranged from 2.23 to 9.47 kg COD m−3 day−1. The difference in biogas production rate increased from non-significant to 18% different. The effluent volatile suspended solids of R1 was 65 mg l−1 lower than that of R2 on Day 123. 16S rRNA targeted denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) fingerprints of microbial community indicated that some methanogens in the genus Methanosaeta can be detected in R1 but not in R2.  相似文献

Fungal strain HU, isolated from activated sludge and identified as a member of the genus Cladosporium based on morphology and sequencing of 28S rRNA, was shown to degrade 90% of fenvalerate, fenpropathrin, β-cypermethrin, deltamethrin, bifenthrin, and permethrin (100 mg L−1) within 5 days. Fenvalerate was utilized as sole carbon and energy source and co-metabolized in the presence of sucrose. Degradation of fenvalerate occurred at pH 5-10 at 18-38 °C. The fungus first hydrolyzed the carboxylester linkage to produce α-hydroxy-3-phenoxy-benzeneacetonitrile and 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde, and subsequently degraded these two compounds with a qmax, Ks and Ki of 1.73 d−1, 99.20 mg L−1 and 449.75 mg L−1, respectively. Degradation followed first-order kinetics. These results show that the fungal strain may possess potential to be used in bioremediation of pyrethroid-contaminated environments.  相似文献

The goal of the study was to determine the effectiveness of nitrification and denitrification and the kinetics of ammonia removal from a mixture of wastewater and anaerobic sludge digester supernatant in an SBR at limited oxygen concentration. In addition, the COD removal efficiency and sludge production were assessed.In the SBR cycle alternating aerobic and anaerobic phases occurred; in the aeration phase the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration was below 0.7 mg O2/L. The low DO concentration did not inhibit ammonia oxidation-nitrification and the efficiency was ca. 96-98%. However, a relatively high COD concentration in the effluent was detected. The values of Km and Vmax, calculated from the Michaelis-Menten equation, were 43 mg N-NH4/L and 15.64 mg N-NH4/L h, respectively. Activated sludge production was almost stable (0.62-0.66 g MLVSS/g COD). A high net biomass production resulted from a low specific biomass decay rate of 0.0015 d−1.  相似文献

An anaerobic digestion technique was applied to textile dye wastewater aiming at the colour and COD removal. Pet bottles of 5 L capacity were used as reactor which contains methanogenic sludge of half a liter capacity which was used for the treatment of combined synthetic textile dye and starch wastewater at different mixing ratios of 20:80, 30:70, 40:60, 50:50 and 60:40 with initial COD concentrations as 3520, 3440, 3360, 3264 and 3144 mg L−1, respectively. The reactor was maintained at room temperature (30 ± 3 °C) with initial pH of 7. The maximum COD and colour removal were 81.0% and 87.3% at an optimum mixing ratio of 30:70 of textile dye and starch wastewaters. Both Monod’s and Haldane’s models were adopted in this study. The kinetic constants of cell growth under Haldane’s model were satisfactory when compared to Monod’s model. The kinetic constants obtained by Haldane’s model were found to be in the range of μmax = 0.037-0.146 h−1, Ks = 651.04-1372.88 mg L−1 and Ki = 5681.81-18727.59 mg L−1.  相似文献

The BGL1 gene, encoding β-glucosidase in Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, was intracellular, secreted or cell-wall associated expressed in an industrial strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The obtained recombinant strains were studied under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The results indicated that both the wild type and recombinant strain expressing intracellular β-glucosidase cannot grow in medium using cellobiose as sole carbon source. As for the recombinant EB1 expressing secreted enzyme and WB1 expressing cell-wall associated enzyme, the maximum specific growth rates (μmax) could reach 0.03 and 0.05 h−1 under anaerobic conditions, respectively. Meanwhile, the surface-engineered S. cerevisiae utilized 5.2 g cellobiose L−1 and produced 2.3 g ethanol L−1 in 48 h, while S. cerevisiae secreting β-glucosidase into culture broth used 3.6 g cellobiose L−1 and produced 1.5 g ethanol L−1 over the same period, but no-full depletion of cellobiose were observed for both the used recombinant strains. The results suggest that S. cerevisiae used in industrial ethanol production is deficient in cellobiose transporter. However, when β-glucoside permease and β-glucosidase were co-expressed in this strain, it could uptake cellobiose and showed higher growth rate (0.11 h−1) on cellobiose.  相似文献

This study investigated the anaerobic degradation of tetrachlorobisphenol-A (TCBPA) in sediment samples collected at three sites along the Erren River in southern Taiwan. TCBPA anaerobic degradation half-lives (t1/2) in the sediment were 12.6, 16.9 and 21.7 d at concentrations of 50, 100, and 250 ??g g−1, respectively. TCBPA (50 ??g g−1) anaerobic degradation half-lives (t1/2) in the sediment were 10.1, 11.8, 11.0, 11.6, 10.8, 9.1, 8.5, 18.2, 19.3, and 16.1 d by the addition of yeast extract (5 mg l−1), cellulose (0.96 mg l−1), sodium chloride (1%), brij 30 (130 mg l−1), brij 35 (43 mg l−1), rhamnolipid (55 ??M), surfactin (91 ??M), phthalic esters (2 mg l−1), nonylphenol (2 mg l−1), and heavy metals (2 mg l−1), respectively. The degradation rate of TCBPA was enhanced by the addition of yeast extract, cellulose, sodium chloride, brij 30, brij 35, rhamnolipid, or surfactin. However, it was inhibited by the addition of phthalic esters, nonylphenol, or heavy metals. Also noted was the presence of dichlorobisphenol-A and bisphenol-A, two intermediate products resulting from the anaerobic degradation of TCBPA accumulated in the sediments.  相似文献

The objective of this work was to examine the feasibility of biogas production from the anaerobic co-digestion of herbal-extraction residues with swine manure. Batch and semi-continuous experiments were carried out under mesophilic anaerobic conditions. Batch experiments revealed that the highest specific biogas yield was 294 mL CH4 g−1 volatile solids added, obtained at 50% of herbal-extraction residues and 3.50 g volatile solids g−1 mixed liquor suspended solids. Specific methane yield from swine manure alone was 207 mL CH4 g−1 volatile solid added d−1 at 3.50 g volatile solids g−1 mixed liquor suspended solids. Furthermore, specific methane yields were 162, 180 and 220 mL CH4 g−1 volatile solids added d−1 for the reactors co-digesting mixtures with 10%, 25% and 50% herbal-extraction residues, respectively. These results suggested that biogas production could be enhanced efficiently by the anaerobic co-digestion of herbal-extraction residues with swine manure.  相似文献

Calcification and primary production responses to irradiance in the temperate coralline alga Lithothamnion corallioides were measured in summer 2004 and winter 2005 in the Bay of Brest. Coralline algae were incubated in dark and clear bottles exposed to different irradiances. Net primary production reached 1.5 μmol C g−1 dry wt h−1 in August and was twice as high as in January–February. Dark respiration showed significant seasonal variations, being three-fold higher in summer. Maximum calcification varied from 0.6 μmol g−1 dry wt h−1 in summer 2004 to 0.4 μmol g−1 dry wt h−1 in winter 2005. According to PE curves and the daily course of irradiance, estimated daily net production and calcification reached 131 μg C g−1 dry wt and 970 μg CaCO3 g−1 dry wt in summer 2004, and 36 μg C g−1 dry wt and 336 μg CaCO3 g−1 dry wt in winter 2005. The net primary production of natural L. corallioides populations in shallow waters was estimated at 10–600 g C m−2 y−1, depending on depth and algal biomass. The mean annual calcification of L. corallioides populations varied from 300 to 3000 g CaCO3 m−2. These results are similar to those reported for tropical coralline algae in terms of carbon and carbonate productivity. Therefore, L. corallioides can be considered as a key element of carbon and carbonate cycles in the shallow coastal waters where they live.  相似文献

A bioreactor cascade with a submerged biofilm is proposed to treat young landfill leachate of jbel chakir landfill site south west from capital Tunis, Tunisia. The prototype was run under different organic loading charges varying from 0.6 to 16.3 kg TOC m−3 day−1. Without initial pH adjustment total organic carbon (TOC) removal rate varied between 65% and 97%. The total reduction of COD reached 92% at a hydraulic retention time of 36 h. However, the removal of total kjeldahl nitrogen for loading charges of 0.5 kg N m−3 day−1 reached 75%. The adjustment of pH to 7.5 improved nitrogen removal to a rate of 85% for loading charge of 1 kg N m−3 day−1. The main bacterial groups responsible for a simultaneous removal of organic carbon and nitrogen belonged to Bacillus, Actinomyces, Pseudomonas and Burkholderia genera. These selected isolates showed a great capacity of degradation at different leachate concentrations of total organic carbon.  相似文献

Organic matters in sewage sludge can be converted into volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as renewable carbon sources. This work for the first time applied anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS) for enhancing VFA production from sewage sludge. With 0.066 or 0.33 g AQDS g−1 dried solids (DS), the yields for VFAs peak at 403 or 563 mg l−1, 1.9- or 2.7-fold to the control. The accumulated VFAs were principally composed of acetate and propionate. The AQDS enhances degradation rates of model proteins (bovine serum albumin), but had little enhancement on that of model polysaccharides (dextrans). The acidification step is proposed the rate-limiting step for VFA production from sewage sludge, in which the AQDS molecules shuttle electrons to accelerate the redox reactions associated with amino acid degradation. Methanogenic activities are inhibited in the presence of AQDS. The AQDS-assisted VFAs are renewable organic carbon sources, although their direct use for anaerobic digestion is not advised.  相似文献

Chemical treatment of uranium mine acid drainage generates sludge containing high radioactivity levels with, for example, 238U and 226Ra concentrations at about 18 and 9 kBq kg−1 dry weight, respectively. Spontaneous vegetation, such as grass (Polygonum sp.), reeds (Phragmites australis), and bullrush (Typha latifolia) growing in sludge dewatering ponds concentrated uranium and uranium daughter radionuclides. However, bullrush growing in natural wetlands by the stream receiving treated mine water discharges contained even higher radionuclide concentrations, e.g., 21 Bq kg−1 dry weight of 238U, about four times higher than bullrush growing on sludge, probably because the uranium in water is more bioavailable to Typha than uranium in the chemical sludge. It is suggested that wetlands with plant species could be used as a secondary treatment to further reduce radioactivity in chemically treated uranium mine water and to improve water quality in streams receiving treated water discharges. Furthermore, it is concluded that vegetation both from sludge drying ponds and from streams receiving treated water discharges, due to the high radionuclide concentrations in the vegetation, is not suitable as cattle feeding.  相似文献
