The biodegradation experiment was carried out in mineral salt medium, containing 5 000 mg/L kraft lignin as only carbon and energy at pH 8.0 and 30℃. Under these conditions, significant reduction in color and lignin content by the strain was observed after incubation for 5 d. The strain attains maximum reduction capability in color （44.6%） and lignin content （39.9%） within 5 d of incubation, and reduced chemical oxygen demand（COD） from initial concentration 7 399 to 3 980 mg/L at maximum reduction level of 46.2% on the 4th day. The total ion chromatograph （TIC） of compounds presented in the chloroform extract of control and bacterial treated samples shows the formation of several lignin-related aromatic compounds including some small molecular lignin fragments, indicating a strong destruction in the lignin structure.展开更多

The utilization and disposal of these solid wastes are the major concern in the world. Semi-coke generated in coal-based direct reduction process of iron ore is a by-product and its suitable utilization is not available so far. In order to handle it properly, the characteristics of this by-product were comprehensively investigated. A series of analysis methods were used to demonstrate its mineral compositions, petrography and physico-chemical properties. The results reveal that the semi-coke has poor washability. The fixed carbon content of semi-coke reaches 76.11% and the gross calorific value is 28.10 MJ/kg, both of which are similar to those of traditional sinter coke breeze. Also, semi-coke ash possesses lower content of SiO2, Al2O3, S and higher content of CaO and MgO, which could improve the strength of sinter ore when partially substituting for coke breeze in sintering. Semi-coke features well-development porous structure and higher reaction activity, which predicts that the sintering speed could be elevated to some extent when employing it as a partial replacement of coke breeze, so the studies further suggest that the potential adverse effect of the high reactivity on sintering process could be weakened by adequately coarsening the semi-coke's particle size.展开更多
