Physical and chemical parame ,eters, e.g., temperature, moisture content, VSS, CODcr, pH, and germination index （GI）, were analyzed to characterize the composting process. Fermentation starts quickly in both forced and air ventilation compost heaps and reaches high-temperature stage after 2 d, owing to the bulking function of matured compost. Compared to air ventilation, however, forced ventilation enables the high-temperature stage to last longer for approximately 7 d. The moisture content of both compost bodies decreases from 62% to about 50% as a result of evaporation, and it decreases slightly faster in forced ventilation compost heap after 13 d due to the higher temperature and better ventilation condition. Although no obvious differences of VSS and pH are observed between both compost heaps, the soluble CODcr and GI show differences during the second half period of fermentation. In forced ventilation compost, the soluble CODcr has a small rebound after 13 d, and GI decreases from 46% to 35% but then increases. These results show that in general, the matured compost is a good conditioner and force ventilation with a proper air supply strategy can be more efficient than air ventilation.展开更多

Using the adsorbent derived from sewage sludge to adsorb the low concentration SO2 in fixed bed system, the effects of the metallic derivatives on characteristics of the adsorbent were investigated at different compositions of the gaseous mixtures. The results show that when the mass fraction of vanadium reaches 0.5% and the mass fraction of （iron,） calcium, copper, nickel reach approximately 0.9%, under the condition that the adsorption mixture contains （0.12%SO2,） 3%O2 and 10% water vapor, the maximum adsorption capacity of SO2 can be obtained to be 128, 109, 90, 82, 78 mg·g-1, respectively. So the metallic derivatives fixed onto adsorbent derived from sewage sludge especially vanadium have great effects on of the sorption characteristics of the adsorbent with respect to SO2.展开更多

The effects of aluminium sulphate, Fe3O4, magnetic field intensity, pH value and flow-rate of sewage on phosphorus removal rate were investigated. The results show that addition of 200 mg/L Al2（SO4）3·18H2O and 300 mg/L Fe3O4, magnetic field intensity of 200 kA/m, pH value of 4.57.0 and flow-rate of 6.15 cm/s are both efficient and economic technical parameters for removal of phosphate. The pH value has a tremendous effect on the removal of phosphate. In the pH range of （4.5）7.0, more than 95% phosphate can be removed. Theoretical analysis indicates that the solubility of AlPO4 is minimum at pH 4.07.0 and the electrostatic attractive force between AlPO4 and Fe3O4 is maximum at pH 4.5（6.5.）展开更多

Four surfactants were adopted such as anionic surfactant(sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, SDBS), nonionic surfactants(tween-20 and tween-60) and cationic surfactant(hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, HTAC), respectively. The indigenous sulfur-oxidizing bacteria in bio-acidification phase were enriched and cultured from fresh activated sludge obtained from a wastewater treatment plant. It is shown that different surfactants exhibited distinct effect on the removal efficiency of heavy metals from sewage sludge. The nonionic surfactants,especially tween-60, promotes the solubilization of heavy metals, while the anionic and cationic surfactants hinder the removal of heavy metals. Copper is efficiently leached. The removal efficiency of cadium is relatively lower than that of Cu due to the demand for rigorous p H value. Lead is leached with a low efficiency as the formation of low soluble Pb SO4 precipitates.展开更多

The influencing factors of the aggregate strength including furnace temperature when feeding,the heating-up time from 500 to 1 000 ℃ ,the highest burning temperature,retention time at the highest burning temperature and furnace temperature at burning end were analyzed by orthogonal tests. The results show that 44.4% (mass fraction) sewage sludge meets the requirement of aggregate strength,others are 5.5% clay and 50.1% PFA. The burning temperature is the most important factor for the aggregate strength. The optimal sintering condition includes a furnace temperature of 471-490 ℃ when feeding,heating-up time of 10-11min from 500 to 1 000 ℃ ,the highest burning temperature between 1 161 and 1 170 ℃,retention time of 4 min at high burning temperature,and furnace temperature within 1 101-1 150 ℃ at burning end.展开更多

For Zn, Mn, Pb and Cd, satisfying results was,achieved by adding ash from stove and phosphorite powder （FA20, PR10）, phosphorite powder and lime （PR15, CL10）, ash from stove and phosphorite powder （FA10, PR10）, and ash from stove and peat （FA20, PT 10）. Based on their effects of inactivating available forms of heavy metals, ash from stove, phosphorite powder and peat were supposed to be effective inactivators with optimum percentages of 20%, 15% and 10% （FA20, PR15, PT10）.

文摘Based on the theory of complex adaptive system(CAS),the optimal allocation model of water resources in sewage irrigation areas was established,which provided new ideas and application value for the rational utilization of agricultural production and waste water resources.The results demonstrated that the difference of crop energy capture mainly depended on the development stage.Waste water with a certain concentration was able to promote crop growth,while excessive concentration inhibited crop growth.The correlation between water absorption rate and leaf area index was close(R=0.9498,p<0.01).The amount of bad seeds increased at a speed of 34.7·d^-1,when system irrigated randomly in the seedling stage,while it tended to remain stable at a speed of 0.3·d^-1 after plants entering the mature stage which impacted the total yields of crops.
文摘Geological materials,both natural and processed, such as volcanics and ceramics(made of clay),has qualities such as positive charge on the surface,strong hydrophilicity,high specific surface area,high porosity,which are in favor of not only microorganism contacting and forming biofilm,but also the oxygen enrichment as well as the mass transfer process of nutriment and garbage produced by metabolism.
