Studies on the purification of wastewater from the nitrogen fertilizer industry by intensive algal cultures. I. Growth of Chlorella vulgaris in wastes.

The possibility of growth of intensive cultures of Chlorella vulgaris on industrial wastewater from nitrogen fertizer plant containing ammonia, urea and nitrate was investigated. Good growth of algae was obtained when the waste was enriched with phosphorus and inoculum contained a high number of cells. The optimal pH for the culture was 7.0--8.0. The main factor limiting growth of algae on wastes on the concentration of ammonia nitrogen. Chlorella vulgaris grows quite well in wastes containing 600 mg NH4-N/l but is inhibited at concentration about 100 mg NH4-N/l.     

Studies on the purification of wastes from the nitrogen fertilizer industry by intensive algal cultures. IV. growth of Chlorella vulgaris in wastes with high nitrogen content in continuous and intermittent light.

The growth and utilization of nitrogen by intensive Chlorella vulgaris in wastes from production of urea, containing 1300 mg NH4+-N and 4000 mg urea-N/1, was investigated. In these conditions only Chlorella vulgaris AA strain, adapted to high concentrations of ammonia nitrogen, was able to grow. The elimination of nitrogen by continuous cultures was 750 mg urea-N/1 with 5-day flow rate. A considerable part of the urea was hydrolized by urease bacteria and removed in the form of NH3. The effect of intermittent light on the growth of algae was also studied. The better growth than in continuous light, was obtained with alternate one hour periods of light and darkness. Good results were also obtained with the use of 12 hour light and 12 hour darkness.     

粗甘油优化污泥脱水液培养小球藻过程的研究

污泥脱水液为污泥压缩过程产生的污水,因其含有N、P等营养物,可用于微藻的培养。但污泥脱水液碳氮比低,可利用碳源有限,影响微藻生长。本研究考察外加不同浓度(1 g/L,2 g/L,4 g/L,6 g/L)生物柴油副产物-粗甘油对污泥脱水液培养小球藻过程的影响。结果表明:1 g/L、2 g/L粗甘油浓度能促进小球藻生长,藻生物量为1.29 g/L、1.45 g/L;2 g/L粗甘油浓度下氨氮、总氮去除率达99.32%和97.52%。粗甘油被分解后易使培养体系pH降至7以下,使总磷去除率比对照组略低。外加1 g/L、2 g/L粗甘油组的COD去除量分别为553.00 mg/L和405.00 mg/L。藻细胞元素和傅里叶红外光谱分析表明补加粗甘油后藻细胞中C元素和H元素相对含量均明显增加,C元素含量约为对照组的1.5倍;2 g/L粗甘油组的蛋白质与脂类物质含量均高于对照组。MPBR半连续培养小球藻过程中,HRT为5 d时藻生物量维持在1.99~2.21 g/L,大约为批次生物量的1.50倍;氨氮、总氮、总磷、COD的去除率分别在96.26%~99.20%、92.44%~94.04%、53.63%~58.58%、59.44%~65.57%。     

Effect of L-glutamic acid on the growth and ammonium removal from ammonium solution and natural wastewater by Chlorella vulgaris NTM06

The main objective of this laboratory scale experiment was to study the effect of l-glutamic acid on the growth in media and removal of ammonium from ammonium solution and natural wastewater by Chlorella vulgaris NTM06. It was observed that higher levels (1.0% and 1.5%) of l-glutamic acid compared to control (0% l-glutamic acid) negatively affected growth of C. vulgaris NTM06 and enhanced removal of ammonium from ammonium solution as well as natural wastewater. After 24h of incubation, 99% of 169.3mg NH(4)(+)-N/l was removed from ammonium solution by 1.5% l-glutamic acid treated C. vulgairs NTM06 cultures; removal in case of control was 70%. In case of natural wastewaters with initial ammonium concentrations of 1550, 775, 310 and 155 mg NH(4)(+)-N/l, removal after 48 h of incubation were 60%, 88%, 61% and 55% respectively. Ammonium removals from ammonium solutions of pH 4.0-8.0 were similar, whereas adsorption of ammonium ions on to the surface of dead C. vulgaris NTM06 cells was around 11%. Compared to dark, cultures incubated under the light showed higher initial removal of ammonium, however, after 24h, differences were not significant. Further research on the role of l-glutamic acid in micro-algal treatment of wastewater and its combination with other approaches such as co-immobilization of micro-algae with other organisms, starvation of micro-algal cells and the use of polymers is recommended.     

莴笋对不同形态氮素的反应

探讨了不同形态氮素对莴笋生长发育的影响及其营养特性。结果表明,莴笋幼苗根系对NH4^+ -N的亲和力稍大于NO3^- -N的亲和力;分别供给NO3^- -N+NO3^- -N及NH4^+ -N,莴笋的生物学产量和吸N量均依次递减（分别为100：56.9：12.4,100：48.9：8.6）,因此在水培条件下,NO3^- -N是最适合莴笋生长发育的氮源,NH4^+ -N与NO3^- -N各占50％时对莴笋的生长发育已有一定的抑制作用,仅以NH4^+ -N作氮源则莴笋很难生长;NH4^+ -N与NO3^- -N各占50％时,莴笋倾向于吸收较多的NH4^+ -N,而且在培养不同阶段NH4^+/NO3^-吸收比例均大于1,莴笋表现出喜铵性,但NH4^+ -N并非莴笋很适合的氮源;营养液中NO3^- -N不足,主要影响莴笋茎叶的生长,而NH4^+ -N所占比例达50％时,莴笋根系生长受到抑制,且有明显的受害症状;以NO3^- -N作氮源预培养两周,以含微量NO3^- -N的自来水为水源,再单独以NH4^+ -N为氮源,对莴笋生长有极大的促进作用,同时还大幅度降低了体内硝酸盐的含量。尿素作氮源莴笋未出现受害症状,但莴笋的生长发育状况明显劣于其它氮源。     

利用市政污水培养Chlorella vulgaris生产生物柴油

为了考察利用南昌市政污水规模化培养富油微藻生产生物柴油,同时达到净化污水的目的,取南昌市青山湖污水处理厂未经任何处理的市政污水作为普通小球藻(Chlorella vulgaris)生长的培养液。监测了C.vulgaris在市政污水中连续培养10 d的特定生长率、生物质产量以及与之相关的市政污水中氨氮(NH4+-N)、总磷(TP)、化学需氧量(COD)、总悬浮固体(TSS)和挥发性悬浮固体(VSS)的清除情况。实验表明:营养物质的水平显著地影响了C.vulgaris的生长。C.vulgaris的生长率在培养8 d后达到最大,OD680为2.856,总的生物质产量日均最大积累速率为0.01 g/L,油脂含量为干质量的18%,油脂的平均日产量为0.001 g/L。培养10 d内NH4+-N、TP和COD的去除率分别为50.0%、32.1%和26.0%,TSS和VSS的日平均去除速率分别为0.01 g/L和0.006 1 g/L。     

重要环境因子对小球藻去除污水中氮磷的影响

对小球藻去除污水中氮磷的性能进行了研究,考察了初始氮磷浓度、氮磷比、光照条件和pH等因素对其去除效率的影响。结果表明,在初始氮磷浓度分别在35 mg/L和7 mg/L以下时去除率接近100%;氮磷比为5∶1和10∶1,小球藻第4 d基本完全去除了污水中的氨态氮,而氮磷比对小球藻的除磷能力没有显著影响;在初始氨态氮或总磷浓度相同的条件下,光照条件(L/D为24 h∶0 h和12 h∶12 h)对氮磷去除效果的无明显差异性（P＞0.05）,而随着氮磷浓度的增加,连续光照条件逐渐展现出去除氮磷的优势;小球藻在pH 7～8范围内对氨态氮的去除率最佳,pH 5～7范围内,对总磷的去除率最佳。     

耐铵型产琥珀酸放线杆菌的选育及铵离子对其生长代谢的影响

经硫酸二乙酯(DES)诱变,在含61～242mmol/LNH4+梯度平板中,筛选到一株耐铵型突变株YZ25,该菌株在含121mmol/LNH4+发酵培养基中,琥珀酸产量达32.68g/L,转化率为65.4%,比出发菌提高了180.5%。进一步考察了不同形态铵盐对YZ25生长的影响,结果表明添加少量铵盐能够提高突变菌的生长速率,但当超过一定量后菌株生长受到抑制,不同铵盐对菌株的抑制程度不同,硫酸铵、碳酸氢铵、氯化铵和硝酸铵对突变株YZ25的半抑制浓度分别为:215mmol/L、265mmol/L、235mmol/L、210mmol/L。为了考察铵离子对YZ25发酵产琥珀酸的影响过程,在3.0L发酵罐以氨水作为pH的调控剂发酵,结果表明在稳定期前菌株生长基本不受铵离子抑制,生物量能够达到正常水平,但是进入稳定期后铵离子抑制作用越来越明显,导致菌株生长提前结束,耗糖不完全,产酸受阻。最后结合产琥珀酸放线杆菌Actinobacillus succinogenes代谢途径分析了铵离子对菌株抑制作用的机理。     

Effect of nitrogen and phosphorus concentration on their removal kinetic in treated urban wastewater by Chlorella vulgaris

This study evaluates the feasibility of removing nutrients by the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris, using urban wastewater as culture medium, namely the effluent subjected to secondary biological treatment in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). For this, laboratory experiments were performed in batch cultures to study the effect of initial nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations on growth and reduction of nutrient performance of C. vulgaris. The microalga was cultivated in enriched wastewater containing different phosphorus (1.3-143.5 mg x L(-1) P.PO4(3-)), ammonium (5.8-226.8 mg x L(-1) N-NH4+) and nitrate (1.5-198.3 mg x L(-1) N-NO3-) concentrations. The nutrient removal and growth kinetics have been studied: maximum productivity of 0.95 g SS x L(-1) x day(-1), minimum yield factor for cells on substrate (Y) of 11.51 g cells x g nitrogen(-1) and 0.04 g cells x g phosphorus(-1) were observed. The results suggested that C. vulgaris has a high potential to reduce nutrients in secondary WWTP effluents.

Effect of cadmium on the growth of Chlorella vulgaris and Stichococcus bacillaris

The growth of Chlorella vulgaris and Stichococcus bacillaris cultures in media containing from 20 to 100 mg Cd/l was studied. The examined strains were found to be highly resistant to the action of cadmium since the highest concentration of the metal used limited the production of dry weight (during 5 days of cultivation) by less than 50%. The lower production of chlorophyll a by S. bacillaris cultures in media containing from 60 to 100 mg Cd/l and 2-fold elongation of the cells point to lower tolerance of the strain to cadmium than that shown by C. vulgaris.     

施肥对巢湖流域稻季氨挥发损失的影响

采用通气法对巢湖流域稻季土壤氨挥发原位监测,研究了不同施肥量及秸秆还田处理对稻季氨挥发的影响。结果表明,氨挥发峰值发生在施肥后的第1-3 天,氨挥发损失主要集中于施肥后的1周。2010年整个稻季氨挥发净损失量为7.22-14.20 kg/hm²,占氮肥施用量的4.59%-6.64%,基肥期是主要的氨挥发时期,约占总氨挥发量的60%,穗肥期氨挥发总损失量最小。常规施肥处理氨挥发总损失量最大,与常规施肥相比,优化施肥、减量化施肥均能减少稻田土壤氨挥发损失1%-2%,氮磷肥减量同时秸秆还田处理氨挥发量最小,其总氨挥发量占常规处理的54%。施肥后的1-2d内田面水中的NH₄⁺-N浓度达到最大值,且各施肥处理的氨挥发量与同期田面水中的NH₄⁺-N浓度呈线性正相关。结合经济效益和环境效应分析发现,秸秆还田处理可减少氨挥发损失,同时获得较高的经济效益,适宜在巢湖流域水稻季推广。     

Simultaneous nitrification and formaldehyde biodegradation in an activated sludge unit

The simultaneous removal of formaldehyde and ammonium in a lab-scale activated sludge unit was investigated. The unit was operated at a hydraulic retention time of 2.4 days with an ammonium concentration in the influent of 350 mg NH4+-N/L, maintaining the ammonium loading rate at 0.15 g NH4+-N/Ld during the operation time. However, the applied organic loading rate was increased stepwise by increasing the formaldehyde concentration from 26 up to 3168 mg/L, corresponding to 0.01-1.40 g COD/Ld. High formaldehyde removal efficiencies, around 99.5% (+/-0.38), were maintained at all the formaldehyde concentrations. Ammonium removal was also very high during the operation period, around 99.9% (+/-0.01). The ammonium concentration in the effluent was lower than 0.1 mg NH4+-N/L at all applied organic loading rates, indicating that there was no inhibition of nitrification by formaldehyde.     

不同形态氮素配比对盐胁迫下菊芋幼苗生理的影响

采用砂培方法研究了不同铵硝配比(NH4+/NO3-分别为4/1、1/1、1/4)的氮素营养和盐分胁迫耦合作用下菊芋幼苗的光合作用和离子吸收运输.结果表明:低浓度的盐胁迫对植物生长的抑制作用不大,而高浓度的盐胁迫却能明显抑制菊芋幼苗生物量的积累,在同一盐浓度下,提高硝态氮比例能够缓解盐胁迫对菊芋幼苗生长的抑制,促进菊芋幼苗鲜重和干重的增加;随着盐浓度的增加,菊芋幼苗地上部和地下部的Na+含量显著增加,而K+、Ca2+含量较对照显著降低,提高硝态氮比例有利于菊芋幼苗对K+和Ca2+的吸收和向上运输,从而维持地上部较高的K+/Na+和Ca2+/Na+;在3种铵硝比的氮素营养处理下,随着盐浓度的增加,菊芋幼苗叶片叶绿素含量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度和水分利用效率较对照均呈显著下降的趋势,细胞间隙CO2浓度则显著增加,提高硝态氮比例可显著提高盐胁迫下菊芋幼苗的叶绿素含量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度和水分利用效率,同时也能显著降低胞间CO2浓度,其中以铵硝比为1/4的氮素营养供应对盐胁迫的缓解作用相对较好,在100 mmol·L-1NaCl处理下其叶片叶绿素含量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度和水分利用效率分别是铵硝比为4/1的氮素营养处理值的1.63、1.57、1.39、1.37、1.2倍,而胞间CO2浓度则减少了17%.因此相对于铵态氮来说,硝态氮比例的增加有利于维持盐胁迫下菊芋幼苗体内矿质营养元素含量平衡,促进盐胁迫下菊芋光合功能的改善,增强菊芋对盐胁迫的抗性.     

Metabolic activities in Azospirillum lipoferum grown in the presence of NH4+

The utilization of some agro-industrial wastes as soil conditioners to provide free-living nitrogen-fixing bacterial populations (e.g. Azospirillum spp.) with carbon and energy sources, may be an interesting perspective for agriculture. However, the presence of ammonium nitrogen in cultivated soils and/or various wastes could inhibit the growth of the nitrogen-fixing populations. The present investigation shows that growth of Azospirillum lipoferum was restricted at a dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration equal to 135 microM, when the initial NH4Cl concentration increased from 0.5 to 0.9 g/l. The activities of both citrate synthase (CS) and isocitrate dehydrogenase were significantly decreased in the presence of 0.9 g/l NH4Cl (e.g., 40% and 66%, respectively, in cells incubated for 95 h), while ammonium assimilation occurred via the glutamate dehydrogenase reaction. Furthermore, growth limitation occurred even in the presence of 0.5 g/l NH4Cl, when the DO concentration decreased from 135 to 30 microM. The activities of both CS and succinate dehydrogenase were dramatically decreased in cells grown at the lower DO concentration (e.g., 90% and 93% respectively, in a 95 h incubation), while ammonium assimilation was limited due to the low activities of both glutamate dehydrogenase and glutamate synthase. It is concluded that the threshold of ammonium concentration at which growth of A. lipoferum is limited, depends on the DO concentration in the medium.     

水稻土模拟土柱中肥料氮素的迁移转化特征

为了明确肥料氮素在模拟土柱中的迁移转化特征,通过布置室内模拟土柱试验,研究了3倍常规施肥水平下（360 mg·kg^-1）水稻土中矿质氮的变化.结果表明： 不同处理、不同土层间NH₄⁺-N和NO₃^--N含量差异显著.不施肥对照在整个培养期间养分含量变化不大,不同土层间亦没有显著性差异.施用尿素和硫铵后,土壤NH₄⁺-N和NO₃^--N含量显著提高,尤其是0～50 mm土层内,分别达到186.0～2882.1 mg·kg^-1和268.7～351.5 mg·kg^-1,分别相当于对照的4.8～242倍和5.7～316倍,50 mm以下各土层与对照处理相似,表明肥料氮素的迁移转化主要发生在0～50 mm土层内,并且在培养的前14 d变化最大.整个培养期间不同土层内,硫铵处理不同矿质态氮含量是尿素处理的0.7～2.0倍,硝化率是尿素处理的0.9～1.4倍,表明硫铵在水稻土中的转化效率略高于尿素.     

一株耐高温高盐亚硝化单胞菌特性的初步研究

从某污水处理站高温高盐外排水中分离出一株严格自养的特殊亚硝化单胞菌。它为革兰氏染色阴性,不产芽孢,细胞椭球形或短杆状,呈单个排列或排列成圆形、直线形,细胞大小为（0.7～0.9)μm×（1.2～1.8)μm。在扫描电镜下发现单个或多个菌体被绒毛状不明物质包裹。该菌株能将氨氮氧化成亚硝酸盐,导致体系中的总氮减少,但是氨氮的减少与亚硝酸盐的增加并不能形成对应,而体系中几乎检测不到硝酸盐氮。在分离菌株50℃培养12 d时,约有10％的NH＋4N转变为NO-2N,15％的NH＋4N未发生转变,剩下的75％的NH＋4N被去除,包括挥发掉的17％的NH＋4N。气相色谱分析表明,菌株培养过程产生气体中氮气含量较对照气体（室内空气）增加了3.5％。     

Citric acid production by Candida strains under intracellular nitrogen limitation

A suitable strain and important factors influencing citric acid formation in yeasts were identified. Candida oleophila ATCC 20177 was chosen as the best citric acid producer from several Candida strains. Yields of 50 g/l citric acid were produced in shake flask and 80 g/l in fed-batch fermentations with 1.5 and 3 g/l NH(4)Cl under non-optimized conditions. Ammonium nitrogen was identified as the limiting substrate for citrate formation. Citric acid excretion begins a few hours after exhaustion of nitrogen in the medium. The importance of intracellular nitrogen limitation was clarified by elemental analysis of C. oleophila biomass. The nitrogen content of C. oleophila biomass decreased from 7.45% during the growth phase to 3.96% in the production phase. The biomass contained less carbon and more trace elements in the growth phase compared with the production phase. Relatively high intracellular NH(4)(+) concentration of about 1.2 mg/g biomass (~37.4 mM) was found during the production phase. The low intracellular nitrogen content and increase of intracellular NH(4)(+) concentration, possibly caused by proteolysis following extracellular nitrogen exhaustion, trigger citric acid production. Intracellular nitrogen limitation and the increase in intracellular NH(4)(+) concentration are the most important factors influencing citric acid formation in yeasts.     

固定化微绿球藻去除NH4+-N、PO43——P效果的研究

为了探究固定化微绿球藻（Nannochloropsis oculata）去除污水中NH4+-N、PO43--P的效果,采用海藻酸钠固定化包埋技术进行实验。开展了固定化藻球大小、藻细胞包埋密度、藻球投放质量及充气培养条件对NH4+-N、PO43--P去除效果的单因子试验研究。结果表明,固定化藻球大小、藻细胞包埋密度、藻球投放质量和充气培养条件对NH4+-N、PO43--P的去除效果影响显著（P0.05）。藻球直径3.5 mm时生长速率（K）值最大（0.3320.002）,同时NH4+-N、PO43--P去除率效果最佳,分别为（75.083.83）%和（80.803.81）%;藻细胞包埋密度100104 cells/ball时K值最大（0.3300.033）,而NH4+-N、PO43--P去除率则以藻细胞包埋密度300104 cells/ball组为佳,分别达（87.200.43）%和（82.581.72）%,但考虑单位藻细胞去除率,包埋密度以100104 cells/ball为宜;随着藻球用量的增加K值下降,10 g/L组K值最大（0.3010.02）、50 g/L组K值最小（0.1930.01）,投放量30和50 g/L时NH4+-N去除率较高分别为（84.120.78）%和（84.630.45）%,30 g/L组PO43--P去除率最高达（77.131.43）%。综合考虑,藻球投放量选用30 g/L为宜;充气条件培养K值、NH4+-N和PO43--P去除率显著（P0.05）高于不充气,K值分别为（0.3060.006）和（0.1770.010）;NH4+-N去除率分别为（85.930.45）%和（49.320.45）%;PO43--P去除率分别为（66.665.00）%和（46.292.12）%。研究优化了微绿球藻固定化条件:固定化微绿球藻应进行充气培养,藻球规格3.5 mm、藻细胞包埋密度100104 cells/ball、藻球投放量30 g/L。     

稻田氮肥的氨挥发损失与稻季大气氮的湿沉降

通过田间小区与大田试验,对稻季期间氮肥的氨挥发损失和大气氮湿沉降状况进行了收集和监测。结果表明,每次施肥后的1～3日内氨挥发损失达到最大值,氨挥发损失受当地气候条件(如光照、温度、湿度、风速、降雨量)、施肥时期以及田面水的NH4^+-N浓度等因素的影响,大气氮湿沉降与施肥量和降雨量有关,稻季内由湿沉降带入土壤或地表水中的氮为7．51kg·hm^-2。其中,NH4^+-N的比例为39．8％～73.2％,平均为55．5％;稻季中总氨挥发量与湿沉降的NH4^+-N平均浓度和总沉降量的相关系数分别达到0．988和0．996,呈显著相关性。
