Reverse osmosis (RO) is capable of removing perchlorate (ClO4 ?) from contaminated groundwater and producing potable effluent; however, RO does not destroy ClO4 ?, but collects it in a concentrated waste stream (rejectate) that must be treated or disposed of appropriately. A packed bed bioreactor, inoculated with the pure culture perclace, was tested for its ability to remove ClO4 ? from a simulated RO rejectate. Perchlorate concentrations were lowered from 5 mg/L to <0.004 mg/L with a residence time of 0.8 h. In addition, this system removed 98% of ClO4 ? from a twice-concentrated rejectate with an influent ClO4 ? concentration of 8 mg/L and a residence time of 2.0 h. In both experiments, nitrate (NO3 ?) was removed simultaneously with ClO4 ? from an initial concentration as high as 900 mg/L NO3 to below 4 mg/L. Despite the efficiency of ClO4 ? removal, the system suffered from clogging due to the high total dissolved solids (TDS) of the twice-concentrated rejectate.  相似文献

A column transport experiment was conducted to examine the release and methylation of Hg using Hg contaminated sediment from the floodplain of the South River near Waynesboro, Virginia. Three input solutions were sequentially introduced into the column. Input 1 was unamended South River water, Input 2 was river water amended with 100 mg L?1 SO4 and 3600 mg L?1 lactate, and Input 3 was river water amended with 500 mg L?1 SO4 and 340 mg L?1 lactate. During the first stage of the experiment (Input 1) the effluent Hg concentration was initially 4 µg L?1 and peaked at 21 µg L?1 and after 21 pore volumes stabilized at 13 µg L?1. During the second stage, at high lactate to SO4 ratios, elevated concentrations of acetic and propionic acids were detected, indicating that fermentative bacteria were dominant. During the third stage, at high SO4 to lactate ratios, a decrease in SO4 and an increase in H2S concentrations were detected in the column effluent indicating that SO4 reduction was occurring. Concentrations of methyl Hg (MeHg) in the effluent were variable over the duration of the experiment. During the first phase, concentrations of MeHg remained <3.3 ng L?1. During the fermentative stage, concentrations of MeHg increased to a maximum value of 32 ng L?1, and during the sulfate-reducing stage to a maximum value of 266 ng L?1. When the column was deconstructed both molecular and cultural techniques indicated that sulfate reducing bacteria were most dominant near the influent port. These results indicate that the formation of MeHg in the sediment is not limited by the availability of Hg and that the bacterial community that contributes to mercury methylation can respond quickly to changes in the abundances of electron donors and acceptors.  相似文献

Field survey, hydroponic culture, and pot experiments were carried out to examine and characterize cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) uptake and accumulation by Sedum jinianum, a plant species native to China. Shoot Cd and Zn concentrations in S. jinianum growing on a lead/Zn mine area reached 103–478 and 4165–8349 mg kg?1 (DM), respectively. The shoot Cd concentration increased with the increasing Cd supply, peaking at 5083 mg kg?1 (DM) when grown in nutrient at a concentration of 100 μmol L?1 for 32 d, and decreased as the solution concentration increased from 200 to 400 μmol L?1. The shoot-to-root ratio of plant Cd concentrations was > 1 when grown in solution Cd concentrations ≤ 200 μmol L?1. Foliar, stem, and root Zn concentrations increased linearly with the increasing Zn level from 1 to 9600 μmol L?1. The Zn concentrations in various plant parts decreased in the order roots > stem > leaves, with maximum concentrations of 19.3, 33.8, and 46.1 g kg?1 (DM), respectively, when plants were grown at 9600 μmol Zn L?1 for 32 d. Shoot Cd concentrations reached 16.4 and 79.8 mg kg?1 (DM) when plants were grown in the pots of soil with Cd levels of 2.4 mg kg?1 and 9.2 mg kg?1, respectively. At soil Zn levels of 619 and 4082 mg kg?1, shoot Zn concentrations reached 1560 and 15,558 mg kg?1 (DM), respectively. The results indicate that S. jinianum is a Cd hyperaccumulator with a high capacity to accumulate Zn in the shoots.  相似文献

The present study investigated growth and biodegradation of 4-bromophenol (4-BP) by Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus A6 in batch shake flasks as well as in a continuously operated packed bed reactor (PBR). Batch growth kinetics of A. chlorophenolicus A6 in presence of 4-BP followed substrate inhibition kinetics with the estimated biokinetic parameters value of μ max = 0.246 h?1, K i = 111 mg L?1, K s  = 30.77 mg L?1 and K = 100 mg L?1. In addition, variations in the observed and theoretical biomass yield coefficient and maintenance energy of the culture were investigated at different initial 4-BP concentration. Results indicates that the toxicity tolerance and the biomass yield of A. chlorophenolicus A6 towards 4-BP was found to be poor as the organism utilized the substrate mainly for its metabolic maintenance energy. Further, 4-BP biodegradation performance by the microorganism was evaluated in a continuously operated PBR by varying the influent concentration and hydraulic retention time in the ranges 400–1,200 mg L?1 and 24–7.5 h, respectively. Complete removal of 4-BP was achieved in the PBR up to a loading rate of 2,276 mg L?1 day?1.  相似文献

The effects of organic carbon sources on cell growth and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production of dissociated Nostoc flagelliforme cells under mixotrophic batch culture were investigated. After 7?days of cultivation, glycerol, acetate, sucrose, and glucose increased the final cell density and final EPS concentrations, and mixotrophic growth achieved higher biomass concentrations. The increase in cell growth was particularly high when glucose was added as the sole carbon source. On the other hand, EPS production per dry cell weight was significantly enhanced by adding acetate. For more effective EPS production, the effects of the mixture of glucose and acetate were investigated. Increasing the ratio of glucose to acetate resulted in higher growth rate with BG-11 medium and higher EPS productivity with BG-110 medium (without NaNO3). When the medium was supplemented with a mixture of glucose (4.0?g?L?1) and acetate (2.0?g?L?1), 1.79?g?L?1 biomass with BG-11 medium and 879.6?mg?L?1 of EPS production with BG-110 medium were achieved. Adopting this optimal ratio of glucose to acetate established in flask culture, the culture was also conducted in a 20-L photobioreactor with BG-11 medium for 7?days. A maximum biomass of 2.32?g?L?1 was achieved, and the EPS production was 634.6?mg?L?1.  相似文献

A packed bed reactor (PBR) was fed with nitrate containing synthetic wastewater or effluent from a sequencing batch reactor used for nitrification. The C source introduced into the PBR consisted of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) produced from anaerobic acidogenesis of food wastes. When nitrate loading rates ranged from 0.50 to 1.01 kg N/m3·d, the PBR exhibited 100∼98.8% NO3 -N removal efficiencies and nitrite concentrations in the effluent ranged from 0 to 0.6 NO2 -N mg/L. When the PBR was further investigated to determine nitrate removal activity along the bed height using a nitrate loading rate less than 1.01 kg N/m3·d, 100% nitrate removal efficiency was observed. Approximately 83.2% nitrate removal efficiency was observed in the lower 50% of the packed-bed height. When reactor performance at a C/N ratio of 4 and a C/N ratio of 5 was compared, the PBR showed better removal efficiency (96.5%) of nitrate and less nitrite concentration in the effluent at the C/N ratio of 5. VFAs were found to be a good alternative to methanol as a carbon source for denitrification of a municipal wastewater containing 40 mg-N/L.  相似文献

A literature review of data on nitrate uptake by phytoplankton suggests that nitrate levels above 20 μmol N·L?1 generally stimulated uptake rates in cultured unicellular algae and natural phytoplankton communities. This phenomenon indicates that phytoplankton cells acclimate to elevated nitrate levels by increasing their uptake capacity in a range of concentrations previously considered to be saturating. Cyanobacteria and flagellates were found to present a considerable capacity for acclimation, with low (0.1–2 μmol N·L?1) half‐saturation values (Ks) at low (5–20 μmol N·L?1) substrate levels and high (1–80 μmol N·L?1) Ks values at high (30–100 μmol N·L?1) substrate levels. However, some diatom genera (Rhizosolenia, Skeletonema, Thalassiosira) also appeared to possess a low affinity nitrate uptake system (Ks between 18 and 120 μmol N·L?1), which can help resolve the paradox of their presence in enriched seas. It follows that present models of nitrate uptake can severely underestimate the effects of high nitrate concentrations on phytoplankton dynamics and development. A more adequate approach would be to consider the possibility of multiphasic uptake involving several phase transitions as nitrate concentrations increased. Because it is a nonlinear phenomenon featuring strong thresholds, this effect appears to override that of other variables, such as irradiance, temperature, and cell size. Within the present context of eutrophication and for a range of concentrations that is becoming more and more ecologically relevant, equations are tentatively presented as a first approach to estimate Ks from ambient nitrate concentrations.  相似文献

A pilot-scale, engineered poplar tree vadose zone system was utilized to determine effluent nitrate (NO3?) and ammonium concentrations resulting from intermittent dosing of a synthetic wastewater onto sandy soils at 4.5°C. The synthetic wastewater replicated that of an industrial food processor that irrigates onto sandy soils even during dormancy which can leave groundwater vulnerable to NO3? contamination. Data from a 21-day experiment was used to assess various Hydrus model parameterizations that simulated the impact of dormant roots. Bromide tracer data indicated that roots impacted the hydraulic properties of the packed sand by increasing effective dispersion, water content and residence time. The simulated effluent NO3? concentration on day 21 was 1.2 mg-N L?1 in the rooted treatments compared to a measured value of 1.0 ± 0.72 mg-N L?1. For the non-rooted treatment, the simulated NO3? concentration was 4.7 mg-N L?1 compared to 5.1 ± 3.5 mg-N L?1 measured on day 21. The model predicted a substantial “root benefit” toward protecting groundwater through increased denitrification in rooted treatments during a 21-day simulation with 8% of dosed nitrogen converted to N2 compared to 3.3% converted in the non-rooted test cells. Simulations at the 90-day timescale provided similar results, indicating increased denitrification in rooted treatments.  相似文献

There has been considerable interest in cultivation of green microalgae (Chlorophyta) as a source of lipid that can alternatively be converted to biodiesel. However, almost all mass cultures of algae are carbon-limited. Therefore, to reach a high biomass and oil productivities, the ideal selected microalgae will most likely need a source of inorganic carbon. Here, growth and lipid productivities of Tetraselmis suecica CS-187 and Chlorella sp were tested under various ranges of pH and different sources of inorganic carbon (untreated flue gas from coal-fired power plant, pure industrial CO2, pH-adjusted using HCl and sodium bicarbonate). Biomass and lipid productivities were highest at pH 7.5 (320?±?29.9 mg biomass L?1 day?1and 92?±?13.1 mg lipid L?1 day?1) and pH 7 (407?±?5.5 mg biomass L?1 day?1 and 99?±?17.2 mg lipid L?1 day?1) for T. suecica CS-187 and Chlorella sp, respectively. In general, biomass and lipid productivities were pH 7.5?>?pH 7?>?pH 8?>?pH 6.5 and pH 7?>?pH 7.5?=?pH 8?>?pH 6.5?>?pH 6?>?pH 5.5 for T. suecica CS-187 and Chlorella sp, respectively. The effect of various inorganic carbon on growth and productivities of T. suecica (regulated at pH?=?7.5) and Chlorella sp (regulated at pH?=?7) grown in bag photobioreactors was also examined outdoor at the International Power Hazelwood, Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. The highest biomass and lipid productivities of T. suecica (51.45?±?2.67 mg biomass L?1 day?1 and 14.8?±?2.46 mg lipid L?1 day?1) and Chlorella sp (60.00?±?2.4 mg biomass L?1 day?1 and 13.70?±?1.35 mg lipid L?1 day?1) were achieved when grown using CO2 as inorganic carbon source. No significant differences were found between CO2 and flue gas biomass and lipid productivities. While grown using CO2 and flue gas, biomass productivities were 10, 13 and 18 %, and 7, 14 and 19 % higher than NaHCO3, HCl and unregulated pH for T. suecica and Chlorella sp, respectively. Addition of inorganic carbon increased specific growth rate and lipid content but reduced biomass yield and cell weight of T. suecica. Addition of inorganic carbon increased yield but did not change specific growth rate, cell weight or content of the cell weight of Chlorella sp. Both strains showed significantly higher maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm) when grown under optimum pH.  相似文献

The aim of the study was to determine the reduction of the overall environmental load (in terms of organic and nutrient load) in effluents of a flow‐through trout farm. Effluents of a flow‐through system for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) production passed through constructed wetlands with free water surface. Removal of nutrients was determined in three wetlands of 350 m2 each at hydraulic residence times (HRTs) of 3.5, 5.5 and 11 h. The areal load of total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total phosphorus (TP), and total nitrogen (TN) varied in terms of HRTs from 12.3–36.8 g m?2 day?1, 21.7–65.2 g m?2 day?1, 0.23–0.70 g m?2 day?1, and 1.46–4.37 g m?2 day?1. Values for reduction of suspended solids, COD, TP, and TN were 67–72%, 30–31%, 41–53% ,and 19–30%, respectively. Significantly lower nutrient concentrations in the effluent among the wetlands were only found for nitrogen parameters: TN and ammonia concentrations were lower in the wetlands with a HRT of 5.5 h (0.89 mg L?1, 0.11 mg L?1) and 11 h (0.81 mg L?1, 0.11 mg L?1) compared with the one with 3.5 h (0.96 mg L?1, 0.16 mg L?1).  相似文献

This study verified the effects of CaSO4 on physiological responses of the tropical fish matrinxãBrycon amazonicus (200.2 ± 51.1 g) in water containing CaSO4 after a 4‐h transportation at concentrations of: 0, 75, 150, and 300 mg L?1. Blood samples were collected prior to transportation (initial levels), immediately after packaging, at arrival, and 24 h and 96 h after transportation (recovery). Cortisol levels increased after packaging (118.2 ± 14.2 ng ml?1), and decreased slightly after transportation in water containing CaSO4 (106.8 ± 14.1), but remained higher than initial levels (21.0 ± 2.6 ng ml?1). Fish kept at 150 mg L?1 CaSO4 reached the pre‐transportation levels at 24 h of recovery. Blood glucose increased after transportation in all treatments (8.2 ± 0.2 mmol L?1) and declined after full recovery to values below initial levels (4.8 ± 0.1 mmol L?1). Chloride levels did not change in CaSO4 treatments; serum sodium concentrations decreased after packaging and after transportation. Serum calcium levels did not differ among treatments, but decreased after packaging and increased at 96 h of recovery. Hematocrit and the number of red blood cells were higher in all treatments after packaging and arrival, except in fish exposed to 300 mg L?1 CaSO4. Mean corpuscular volume increased in 75 mg L?1 CaSO4, which reached the higher VCM after transportation. Hemoglobin levels increased only after transportation, regardless of calcium sulfate levels. Handling before transportation and transportation itself were both stressful to fish; calcium sulfate at concentrations tested in the present work had a moderate influence in the reduction of stress responses.  相似文献

A laboratory-scale study was conducted in a 20.0-L sequencing batch reactor (SBR) to explore the feasibility of simultaneous removal of organic carbon and nitrogen from abattoir wastewater. The reactor was operated under three different combinations of aerobic-anoxic sequence, viz., (4+4), (5+3), and (5+4) h of total react period, with influent soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) and ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N) level of 2200 ± 50 and 125 ± 5 mg L?1, respectively. In (5+4) h cycle, a maximum 90.27% of ammonia reduction corresponding to initial NH4+-N value of 122.25 mg L?1 and 91.36% of organic carbon removal corresponding to initial SCOD value of 2215.25 mg L?1 have been achieved, respectively. The biokinetic parameters such as yield coefficient (Y), endogenous decay constant (kd), and half-velocity constant (Ks) were also determined to improve the design and operation of package effluent treatment plants comprising SBR units. The specific denitrification rate (qDN) during anoxic condition was estimated as 6.135 mg N/g mixed liquor volatile suspended solid (MLVSS)·h on 4-h average contact period. The value of Y, kd and Ks for carbon oxidation and nitrification were found to be in the range of 0.6225–0.6952 mg VSS/mg SCOD, 0.0481–0.0588 day?1, and 306.56–320.51 mg L?1, and 0.2461–0.2541 mg VSS/mg NH4+-N, 0.0324–0.0565 day?1, and 38.28–50.08 mg L?1, respectively, for different combinations of react periods.  相似文献

The influence of biostimulation using dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on rhizodegradation of perchlorate and plant uptake was studied under greenhouse conditions using soil and hydroponic bioreactors. One set of bioreactors planted with willow (Salix babylonica) plants was spiked with 300 mg L?1 DOC in the form of chicken manure extract, whereas a second set was not treated with DOC. A similar experiment without willow plants was run in parallel to the planted bioreactors. The planted soil bioreactors amended with DOC reduced perchlorate from 65.85 to 2.67 mg L?1 in 21 days for humic soil (95.95% removal) and from 68.99 to 0.06 mg L? 1 for sandy loam (99.91% removal) in 11 days. Nonplanted DOC treated soil bioreactors achieved complete perchlorate removal in 6 and 8 days for humic and sandy loam, respectively. Both planted and nonplanted soil bioreactors without DOC removed > 95% perchlorate within 8 days. Planted soil bioreactors respiked with perchlorate reduced perchlorate to nondetectable levels in 6 days. Hydroponics experiment amended with DOC reduced perchlorate from approximately 100 mg L? 1 to nondetectable levels within 7 to 9 days. Hydroponic bioreactors without DOC had low perchlorate removal rates, achieving 30% removal in 42 days. Leaf samples from sandy loam soil bioreactors without DOC had four times perchlorate phytoaccumulation than the DOC-treated plants. Similar results were obtained with the nonplanted bioreactors. Persistence of perchlorate in solution of planted hydroponic bioreactors without DOC amendment suggested that natural DOC from the plant exudates was not enough to biostimulate perchlorate reducing microbes. The hydroponic bioreactor study provided evidence that DOC is a limiting factor in the rhizodegradation of perchlorate.  相似文献

A di-N-functionalized 14-membered tetraaza macrocycle, [H4L3](ClO4)2 (L3 = 1,8-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14-octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane), has been synthesized by acid hydrolysis of 1,8-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14-octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (L2). The copper(II) complexes [CuL2](ClO4)2 and [Cu(H2L3)](ClO4)2 were prepared and characterized. The complex [Cu(H2L3)]2+ readily reacts with methanol to yield [CuL4]2+ (L4 = 1,8-bis(2-carbomethoxyethyl)-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14-octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane). The N-CH2CH2COOH groups of [Cu(H2L3)](ClO4)2 are not coordinated to the metal ion in the solid state but are involved in coordination in various non-aqueous solvents or in aqueous solutions of pH ? 1.0. Interestingly, [CuL4](ClO4)2 exists as two stable structural isomers, 1 (the pendant ester groups are not involved in coordination) and 2 (one of the two ester groups is coordinated to the metal ion), in the solid state; the two isomers can be prepared selectively by controlling ionic strength of a methanol solution of the complex. Crystal structures and coordination behaviors of the two isomers are described. The di-N-cyanoethylated macrocyclic complex [CuL2](ClO4)2 is rapidly decomposed in 0.1 M NaOH solution even at room temperature. On the other hand, [Cu(H2L3)](ClO4)2 and [CuL4](ClO4)2 are quite inert against decomposition under similar basic conditions. In acidic or basic aqueous solutions, [CuL4]2+ is hydrolyzed to [Cu(H2L3)]2+ or [CuL3].  相似文献

Arthrospira platensis cultivation produces a saline spent medium that must be treated to allow its reuse, thus saving water and avoiding environmental pollution. This study evaluates the association of flocculation followed by adsorption to treat the spent medium by applying different concentrations of granular activated carbon (GAC) and ferric chloride (F), and using different residence times (T). The simultaneous optimization of the independent variables GAC, F, and T was performed using both a 23 central composite design and a response surface methodology. The cells cultivated in the medium obtained after the optimal conditions of treatment (GAC = 54.2 g L?1, F = 10.0 mg L?1, and T = 30.8 min) provided the highest maximum cell concentration, Xm = 3140 ± 77 mg L?1 in 0.5 L Erlenmeyer flasks with the highest protein biomass content (44.9%). The treated medium in such conditions was also used in a 3.5 L tubular photobioreactor (PBR), reaching Xm = 4033 ± 110 mg L?1 and biomass with high contents of both protein (47.3 ± 2.6%) and chlorophyll (9.7 ± 0.3 mg g dry cell?1). Therefore, this study can contribute to diminishing costs of A. platensis production by reusing its culture medium and improving its biomass quality in PBRs.  相似文献

The immediate effect of zinc (Zn) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in Chara braunii was analyzed in short-time exposure experiments. The exposure concentrations were 12.3, 18.4, and 24.5 μmol L?1 H2O2, 12, 60, and 120 mg L?1 Zn, and 12.3 μmol L?1 H2O2 + 12 mg L?1 Zn, 12.3 μmol L?1 H2O2 + 60 mg L?1 Zn, and 18.4 μmol L?1 H2O2 + 12 mg L?1 Zn. The stress response of C. braunii was analyzed by measuring photosynthetic photosystem II activity, chlorophyll a and b and carotenoid contents, the H2O2 concentration, and antioxidant enzyme activities of ascorbic peroxidase, catalase, and guaiacol peroxidase. The short-term addition of Zn reduced pigment contents in C. braunii. Chlorophyll a and b and carotenoid contents in H2O2-exposed C. braunii were as high as in control plants. Photosynthesis was reduced in H2O2-treated C. braunii and the short-term addition of Zn did not affect the electron transport rate. H2O2 concentration and antioxidant enzyme activities in C. braunii were not significantly different between control and exposed plants. Trends of enzymatic adaptation were described: the H2O2-induced stress response was characterized by increased antioxidant enzyme activities, whereas Zn inactivated catalase in C. braunii.  相似文献

The effects of five (5 000, 10 000, 15 000, 20 000, 24 000 kg ha?1 year?1) different doses of organic fertilizer (cow dung) were studied on pond productivity in terms of plankton production and fish biomass in freshwater fish ponds. The grow out period was 60 days. Physico-chemical factors of pond waters were also monitored. With an increase in the fertilizer dose, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) (1.7 ± 0.1 – 10.35 ± 0.05 mg L?1), O-PO4 (0.04 ± 0.0 – 0.77 ± 0.02 mg L?1) and NH4-N (0.03 ± 0.02 – 0.32 ± 0.02 mg L?1) increased significantly (P < 0.05). Alkalinity (79.0 ± 1.6 – 164.0 ± 3.8 mg L?1) also increased with the increase in fertilizer dose, declining after 60 and 75 days (48.8 ± 1.13 – 67.9 ± 2.1 mg L?1). NO3-N was maximum (1.66 ± 0.2 mg L?1) in the ponds which received cow dung at 15 000 kg ha?1 year?1, and declined (0.94 ± 0.5 mg L?1) at higher doses. Dissolved oxygen (DO) remained significantly high (4.7 mg L?1) up to the third (15 000 kg ha?1 year?1) treatment. Highest plankton population (phytoplankton 17 350.0 ± 1 250.0 no L?1), zooplankton (373.0 ± 22.0 no L?1), species diversity (phytoplankton 3.0, zooplankton 2.3), fish biomass (4.45 kg) and specific growth rate (SGR) (2.36 % body weight (BW) d?1) were also observed in ponds which were treated with fertilizer at 15 000 kg ha?1 year?1. However, at higher doses, a decline in these parameters (phytoplankton, 0.0 – 8 810.0 ± 690.0 no L?1; zooplankton, 0.0 – 205.0 ± 25.0 no L?1; fish biomass, 2.3 kg; SGR, 1.25 % body weight (BW) d?1) was observed. Furthermore, with a decrease in the water temperature from 24 °C (on day 60) to 21 °C (on day 75), a decline in nutrient release, plankton population L?1 and species diversity was observed. Sediment analysis indicated that with an increase in the fertilizer dosage, a significant and progressive increase in the accumulation of organic carbon (0.787 ± 0.006 – 0.935 ± 0.01), total nitrogen (0.877 ± 0.071 – 1.231 ± 0.03), NH4-N (54.4 ± 0.57 – 68.95 ± 0.81), NO3-N (78.5 ± 1.21 – 98.5 ± 0.35), total P (140.0 ± 0.50 – 151.0 ± 1.27) and soluble P (7.15 ± 0.18 – 10.1 ± 0.56) took place; similarly, electrical conductivity (EC) values of sediment also increased progressively (from 200.0 ± 7.1–300.0 ± 10.63 μ mhos cm?1).  相似文献

Many coastal plain wetlands receive nutrient pollution from agricultural fields and are particularly vulnerable to saltwater incursion. Although wetlands are a major source of the greenhouse gases methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), the consequences of salinization for greenhouse gas emissions from wetlands with high agricultural pollution loads is rarely considered. Here, we asked how saltwater exposure alters greenhouse gas emissions from a restored freshwater wetland that receives nutrient loading from upstream farms. During March to November 2012, we measured greenhouse gases along a ~2 km inundated portion of the wetland. Sampling locations spanned a wide chemical gradient from sites receiving seasonal fertilizer nitrogen and sulfate (SO4 2?) loads to sites receiving seasonal increases in marine salts. Concentrations and fluxes of CH4 were low (<100 µg L?1 and <10 mg m?2 h?1) for all sites and sampling dates when SO4 2? was high (>10 mg L?1), regardless of whether the SO4 2? source was agriculture or saltwater. Elevated CH4 (as high as 1,500 µg L?1 and 45 mg m?2 h?1) was only observed on dates when air temperatures were >27 °C and SO4 2? was <10 mg L?1. Despite elevated ammonium (NH4 +) for saltwater exposed sites, concentrations of N2O remained low (<5 µg L?1 and <10 µg m?2 h?1), except when fertilizer derived nitrate (NO3 ?) concentrations were high and N2O increased as high as 156 µg L?1. Our results suggest that although both saltwater and agriculture derived SO4 2? may suppress CH4, increases in N2O associated with fertilizer derived NO3 ? may offset that reduction in wetlands exposed to both agricultural runoff and saltwater incursion.  相似文献

A high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique, previously developed for nitrite (NO2) and nitrate (NO3) measurements [3], was used to measure chlorite (ClO2) production by Nitrobacter winogradskyi. The determination of ClO2 by HPLC involves monitoring the column effluent with a UV detector at 214 or 254 nm. Although the absorbance of ClO2 at 214 nm was about 5 times greater than at 254 nm, interference from other compounds in the culture filtrates of N. winogradskyi contributed to an unstable detector signal. The detection limit at 254 nm for ClO2 in deionized water was about 1 μM.The measurement of ClO2 in N. winogradskyi culture filtrates was done with detection at 254 nm. The maximum concentration of ClO2 produced by anaerobically incubated cell suspensions of N. winogradskyi was about 80 μM.  相似文献

A novel bacterium, strain SZ28, identified as Acinetobacter sp., showed anaerobic denitrification ability using Mn(II) as the electron donor. Nitrate-nitrogen concentration decreased from nearly 16.52–mg L?1 to 4.4–mg L?1, without accumulation of nitrite as an intermediate, with a maximum of 0.063–mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1, reaching a peak of 0.085–mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1 in sodium acetate. The nitrate removal rate reached 0.067–mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1, 0.059–mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1, and 0.078 mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1 using Mn(II), S(II), and Fe(II) as electron donors, respectively. The optimum pH was 6.0, with a removal rate of 0.063–mg NO3?-N L?1 h?1  相似文献
