The systematical researches on the efficiency of combined operation conditions of anaerobic-aerobic and anaerobic-aerobic-flocculation as well as chemical phosphorus removal of hypersaline mustard wastewater are conducted. The optimal operation condition and parameters in pretreatment of mustard wastewater in winter (the water temperature ranges 8-15 ~C) are determined: the anaerobic load is 3.0 kg (COD)/(m3.d), the average COD and phosphate concentration of the inflow are respectively 3 883 mg/L and 35.53 mg/L and the dosage of flocculent (PAC) is 400 mg/L. The anaerobic-aerobic-flocculation combined operation condition and postpositive phosphorous removal with ferrous sulfate are employed. After treatment, the COD of the effluent is 470 mg/L and the average phosphate concentration is 5.09 mg/L. The effluent could achieve the third-level of Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard (GB 8978--1996).展开更多

A system reliability analyses method for rock slopes with multiple failure modes based on nonlinear Barton-Bandis failure criterion is proposed. The factors of safety associated with the sliding and overturning failure modes are derived, respectively. The validity of this method is verified through a planar rock slope with an inclined slope top and tension crack. Several sensitivity analyses are adopted to study the influences of structural-plane parameters, geometric parameters, anchoring parameters and fracture morphology on the rock slopes system reliability.展开更多

This study compared the copepod collecting efficiency of three commonly used plankton nets, namely, the China standard coarse net (505 gm mesh), the China standard fine net (77 gin), and the WP-2 net (200 μm) The experiment was performed at six stations in the Bohai Sea during the autumn of 2012. The coarse net substantially un- der-sampled small individuals (body widths 〈 672 gm) and led to the lowest species number in each tow, whereas the fine net col- lected all small copepod species but failed to collect rare species. The WP-2 net appeared to be a compromise of the two other nets, collecting both small copepods and rare species. The abundance of copepods collected by the coarse net (126.4±86.5 indm-3) was one to two orders of magnitude lower than that by the WP-2 net (5802.4 ± 2595.4 indm3), and the value of the fine net (11117.0±4563.41 indm-3) was nearly twice that of the WP-2 net. The abundance of large copepods (i.e., adult Calanus sinicus) in the three nets showed no significant differences, but the abundance of small copepods declined with decreasing mesh size. The dif- ference in abundance resulted from the under-sampling of small copepods with body widths 〈 672 μm and 〈 266μm by the coarse and WP-2 nets, respectively.展开更多

Zn, Cd and Cu in the extracts and samples were measured by flame atomic adsorption spectrometry. In sequential extraction procedures, water soluble form and ethanol soluble form are the main fractions for Zn, while water soluble form and Na Cl soluble form for Cd, and comparatively uniform distribution for Cu with the residue form most and HCl soluble form second. Single extraction procedures are used to compare the extraction efficiencies of the five reagents to screen appropriate extractants and operating conditions for liquid extraction to deal with large amount of harvested metal-contained biomass, which will pose a threat to the environment if treated improperly. The sequences of extraction efficiencies are HCl>Na Cl≈HAc>Water≈Ethanol for Zn and HCl≈Na Cl≈HAc>Water>Ethanol for Cd. As for Cu, all the five extractants cannot effectively extract Cu, but HCl achieves a higher efficiency(>70% in fresh samples, and 45%-60% in dried samples). Besides, extraction efficiencies for most extractants in fresh samples are higher than those in dried samples, and extraction efficiencies of stems and leaves for the five extractants are close. The two extraction procedures can obtain high degree of accuracy with the relative standard deviation(RSD)lower than 10%, and metal recoveries are controlled between 80%-120% with most of 90%-110%.展开更多
