In this study, a laboratory-scale expanded granular sludge bed reactor was operated continuously to treat high-sulfate organic wastewater with increased NB contents. Results successfully demonstrated that the presence of more than 50 mg/L NB depressed sulfate reduction and such inhibition was partly reversible. Bath experiments showed that the maximum specific desulfuration activity (SDA) decreased from 135.80 mg SO4^2-/gVSS/d to 30.78 mg SO4^2-/gVSS/d when the NB contents increased from none to 400 mg/L. High-throughput sequencing showed that NB also greatly affected bacterial community structure. Bcicteroidetes dominated in the bioreactor. The abundance of Proteobacteria increased with NB addition while Firmicutes presented an opposite trend. Proteobacteria gradually replaced Finnicutes for the dominance in response to the increase of influent NB concentrations.The genus Desulfovibrio was the dominant sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) with absence or presence of NB, but was inhibited under high content of NB. The results provided better understanding for the biological sulfate reduction under NB stress.展开更多

The time of Pb-Zn enrichment has been debated for a long time in this deposit. A total of seventeen samples of three sections were taken from the Fankou mine for the study of mineralization time and the mechanism of ore formation. The samples were analyzed by microscope, Soxhlet-extract, GC, and GC/MS methods. The results indicated that organic bulk parameters vary with the Pb-Zn contents in different samples and clearly were influenced by ore sulfide formation. Organically geochemical parameters (MPI 1, CPI) indicate that the paleotemperatures in the Fankou deposit are lower than 80℃ in all three sections. Sulfides in the wall rocks might occur mainly during synsedimentation or early diagenesis by BSR or partly by PR, rather than by TSR at such low temperatures, this stage may be the first mineralization stage. Sulfides near the faults might be formed by TSR after sedimentation, this stage may be the second mineralization stage.展开更多
