To find an efficient solution for remediating the combined pollution,electrokinetics( EK) coupled with chitosan( CTS)permeable reactive barrier( EK/CPRB) was used to investigate the performances of metal and acid ions remediation. Adsorption characteristics of Zn^(2+),Fe^(3+),Ca^(2+),SO_4^(2-) and NO_3^- onto CTS were also conducted. The results showed the sorption of Zn^(2+),Fe^(3+),Ca^(2+),SO_4^(2-) and NO_3^- on CTS could be well described by Freundlich model. When the CTS dosage is 8 g,the total removal efficiency for Zn^(2+),Fe^(3+),Ca^(2+),SO_4^(2-) and NO_3^- is 86. 8%,90. 2%,92. 4%,90. 0% and 82. 5%,respectively. CTS enhanced ions remediation efficiencies significantly compared with the single EK system,especially for SO_4^(2-) and NO_3^-. The results indicate EK/CPRB system is suitable for the remediation of soil contaminated by both metal ions and acid ions.展开更多

Accordingly theory of proposed method, the membrane permeability coefficients for passed trough outer cell membrane sodium and potassium ions, is equal to the volume of unicellular organism divided to product between cell surface and mean generation time of cells. The calculated by this way diapason of values overlaps with experimentally measured diapason of values of permeability coefficient for sodium and potassium ions. The deviation between the theoretically calculated and experimentally measured values of permeability coefficient does not exceed one order of magnitude.展开更多

Based on scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and focused ion beam-SEM(FIB-SEM), the pore structure of bentonite was characterized at different scales. First, a reasonable gray threshold was determined through back analysis, and the image was binarized based on the threshold. In addition, binary images were used to analyze bentonite’s pore structure(porosity and pore size distribution). Furthermore, the effects of different algorithms on the pore structure characterization were evaluated. Then, permeability calculations were performed based on the previous pore structure characteristics and a modified permeability prediction model. For permeability prediction based on the three-dimensional model, the effect of pore tortuosity was also considered. Finally, the accuracy of numerical calculations was verified by conducting macroscopic gas and alcohol permeability experiments. This approach provides a better understanding of the microscale mechanism of gas transport in bentonite and the importance of pore structures at different scales in determining its seepage characteristics.展开更多

Melrose) were treated with 0, 50, 100, or 150 mmol L-1Na Cl for 5 days. A series of physiological parameters were determined in both shoots and roots, including content of chlorophyll(Chl) and malondialdehyde(MDA); electrolyte leakage(EL); hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) concentration; superoxide oxygen radical(O2-)production rate; activities of several enzymes including superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT), and peroxidase(POD); and selective ion(Na+and K+) accumulation. Our results showed that the relative salt tolerance of ACC547 was associated with lower loss of Chl content; lower MDA content, EL, H2O2 concentration, and O2-production rate in both shoots and roots; higher POD activity caused by new isoforms in roots; and higher K+concentration and K+/Na+ratio in shoots. These results suggested that relative lower membrane injury, efficient K+vs. Na+selective accumulation, and newly induced POD isoenzymes are mechanisms of salt tolerance in soybean.展开更多
