摘要
Permanganate treatment is widely used for disinfection of bacteria in surface-contaminated water.In this paper,the fate of the dissolved permanganate in aqueous solution after contact with cells of Pseudomonas fluorescens was studied.Concomitant accumulation of divalent cations of Mg2+,Zn2+,and Co2+during precipitation of Mn oxides was also studied.The time course of the Mn concentration in solution showed an abrupt decrease after contact of Mn(VII)with microbial cells,followed by an increase after^24 hr.XRD analysis of the precipitated Mn oxides,called biomass Mn oxides,showed the formation of low-crystalline birnessite.Visible spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near edge structure(XANES)analyses indicated that dissolved Mn(VII)was reduced to form biomass Mn oxides involving Mn(IV)and Mn(III),followed by reduction to soluble Mn(II).The numbers of electron transferred from microbial cells to permanganate and to biomass Mn oxides for 24 hr after the contact indicated that the numbers of electron transfer from microbial cell was approximately 50 times higher to dissolved permanganate than to the biomass Mn oxides in present experimental conditions.The 24 hr accumulation of divalent cations during formation of biomass Mn oxides was in the order of Co2+>Zn2+>Mg2+.XANES analysis of Co showed that oxidation of Co2+to Co3+resulted in higher accumulation of Co than Zn and Mg.Thus,treatment of surface water by KMnO4 solution is effective not only for disinfection of microorganisms,but also for the elimination of metal cations from surface water.
Permanganate treatment is widely used for disinfection of bacteria in surface-contaminated water. In this paper, the fate of the dissolved permanganate in aqueous solution after contact with cells of Pseudomonas fluorescens was studied. Concomitant accumulation of divalent cations of Mg2+, Zn2+, and Co2+ during precipitation of Mn oxides was also studied. The time course of the Mn concentration in solution showed an abrupt decrease after contact of Mn（VII） with microbial cells, followed by an increase after ～ 24 hr.XRD analysis of the precipitated Mn oxides, called biomass Mn oxides, showed the formation of low-crystalline birnessite. Visible spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near edge structure（XANES） analyses indicated that dissolved Mn（VII） was reduced to form biomass Mn oxides involving Mn（IV） and Mn（III）, followed by reduction to soluble Mn（II）.The numbers of electron transferred from microbial cells to permanganate and to biomass Mn oxides for 24 hr after the contact indicated that the numbers of electron transfer from microbial cell was approximately 50 times higher to dissolved permanganate than to the biomass Mn oxides in present experimental conditions. The 24 hr accumulation of divalent cations during formation of biomass Mn oxides was in the order of Co2+> Zn2+> Mg2+.XANES analysis of Co showed that oxidation of Co2+ to Co3+ resulted in higher accumulation of Co than Zn and Mg. Thus, treatment of surface water by KMnO4 solution is effective not only for disinfection of microorganisms, but also for the elimination of metal cations from surface water.
