Removal and transformation of dissolved organic matter in secondary effluent during granular activated carbon treatment

This paper focused on the removal and transformation of the dissolved organic matter （DOM） in secondary effluent during the granular activated carbon （GAC） treatment. Using XAD-8/XAD-4 resins, DOM was fractionated into five classes： hydrophobic acid （HPO-A）, hydrophobic neutral （HPO-N）, transphilic acid （TPI-A）, transphilic neutral （TPI-N） and hydrophilic fraction （HPI）. Subsequently, the water quality parameters of dissolved organic carbon （DOC）, absorbance of ultraviolet light at 254 nm （UV-254）, specific ultraviolet light absorbance （SUVA） and trihalomethane formation potential （THMFP） were analyzed for the unfractionated and fractionated water samples. The results showed that the order of the DOC removal with respect to DOM fractions was observed to be HPI〉HPO-A〉HPO-N〉TPI-A〉TPI-N. During the GAC treatment, the THMFP of the unfractionated water samples decreased from 397.4 μg/L to 176.5 μg/L, resulting in a removal efficiency of 55.6%. The removal order of the trilaalomethanes （THMs） precursor was as follows： HPO-A〉TPI-A〉TPI-N〉HPO-N〉HPI. By the GAC treatment, the specific THMFP of HPO-A, TPI-A, TPI-N and the original unfractionated water samples had a noticeable decrease, while that of HPO-N and HPI showed a converse trend. The Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） results showed that the hydroxide groups, carboxylic acids, aliphatic C-H were significantly reduced by GAC treatment.

Chemical characterization and composition of dissolved organic matter in Jiaozhou Bay

Biologically utilizable dissolved organic compounds,including dissolved organic carbon (DOC),dissolved carbohydrates (DCHO) and dissolved free amino acids (DFAA) were analyzed in filtered surface seawater samples collected at 19 stations in Jiaozhou Bay,China,on June 3,2007.In these samples,concentrations of DOC,dissolved free carbohydrates (DFCHO),dissolved combined carbohydrates (DCCHO),total dissolved carbohydrates (TDCHO) and total dissolved free amino acids (TDFAA) ranged from 141.7 to 191.1 μmol C/L,1.98 to 18.18 μmol C/L,5.04 to 24.90 μmol C/L,14.52 to 30.36 μmol C/L,and 1.83 to 11.89 μmol C/L,respectively.As a major component of the dissolved carbohydrates,the concentrations of DCCHO were about three times higher than those of DFCHO.Three major constituents of the DFAA were threonine (23.0±5.7 mol%),glutamic acid (16.6±3.2 mol%) and arginine (9.1±3.3 mol%).Based on the composition of DFAA,a molar C:N ratio of 3.60±0.75 in DFAA was derived,indicating longer carbon chains in the amino acids.DCCHO (8.1%) was the most abundant fraction of DOM in most samples,followed by DFCHO (4.8%) and TDFAA (2.7%).These DOM concentrations displayed a decreasing trend from the coast to the central region.Significant correlations were found between the DCCHO and DFCHO concentrations (r=-0.724,n=19,P<0.001) and the DCCHO and TDCHO concentrations (r=0.506,n=19,P=0.027).

Study on Water－Soluble Organic Reducing Substances：Ⅲ．Electrochemical Properties of Decomposition Products of Rice Straw and Their Interactions with Variable Charge Soils

Some electrochemical properties,such as PH,Eh,and voltammetric behavior,of the decomposition products of rice straw and the in eractions of these products with soils were studied.The PH,Eh,and amounts of organic reducing substances changed markedly during the 60-day anaerobic decomposition.pH decreased sharply to pH 5 on the tenth day and then increased gradually to 7 on the 45th day.The amouats of organic reducing substances increased almost synchronously with the fall of redox potential during the first 15 days.The differential pulse voltammetric(dpv) behavior changed not only in the peak current but also in the peak potential.The fractions with apparent molecular weights lower than 200 dations appeared to be active in dpv behavior.The electric charge of organic reducing substances was closely related to the decomposition stage.The 6th day of incubation was the crucial time before and after which the major part of the components was negatively charged and positively charged, respectively.The group with a low apparent molecular weight and a negative charge was the main components responsible for the lower anodic peak potentials.They were oxidized first during the interactions of the organic reducing substances with soils.

Isotopic and Chemical Characteristics of Lagoon Waters in Niigata Prefecture, Japan

In order to investigate the isotopic and chemical characteristics of lagoon waters in Niigata Prefecture in recent years, oxygen and hydrogen stable isotope ratios （i.e., 8180 and 6D）, the concentrations of DOC （dissolved organic carbon）, DO （dissolved oxygen） and pH, etc. in water samples of Sakata and Toyanogata were measured. Samples were generally taken monthly at the fixed sampling points from these lagoons. Consequently, the following matters have been mainly clarified： （1） ~D value of water samples in Sakata was generally larger than that in Toyanogata similarly to the case of ~180, though remarkable large difference among samples was not found; （2） the pH value of lagoon water samples is almost 6.5-8.5 （which is generally larger than that of river water）, and pH at the spot of SI （downstream point of Lower Lagoon （Shitakata）） is remarkably high （9.0-9.5）; （3） Lagoon water has the chemical characteristics contrasting to groundwater with a focus on river water from the viewpoint of pH （acidity or alkalinity） and DO. These matters can be closely related to the biological activity such as photosynthesis due to aquatic plant and phytoplankton and the activity of Crustacea plankton etc. in lagoon.

Spatiotemporal variation of dissolved carbohydrates and amino acids in Jiaozhou Bay,China

Surface seawater samples were collected from Jiaozhou Bay,China,during six cruises(MarchMay 2010,September-November 2010) to study the distribution of dissolved organic matter including dissolved organic carbon(DOC),total dissolved carbohydrates,namely monosaccharides(MCHO) and polysaccharides(PCHO) and total hydrolysable amino acids.These included dissolved free amino acids(DFAA) and combined amino acids(DCAA).The goal was to investigate possible relationships between these dissolved organic compounds and environmental parameters.During spring,the concentrations of MCHO and PCHO were 9.6(2.8-22.6) and 11.0(2.9-42.5) μmol C/L,respectively.In autumn,MCHO and PCHO were 9.1(2.6-27.0) and 10.8(2.4-25.6) μmol C/L,respectively.The spring concentrations of DFAA and DCAA were 1.7(1.1-4.1) and 7.6(1.1-31.0) μmol C/L,respectively,while in autumn,DFAA and DCAA were 2.3(1.1-8.0) and 3.3(0.6-7.2) μmol C/L,respectively.Among these compounds,the concentrations of PCHO were the highest,accounting for nearly a quarter of the DOC,followed by MCHO,DCAA and DFAA.The concentrations of the organic compounds exhibited a decreasing trend from the coastal to the central regions of the bay.A negative correlation between concentrations of DOC and salinity in each cruise suggested that riverine inputs around the bay have an important impact on the distribution of DOC in the surface water.A significant positive correlation was found between DOC and total bacteria count in spring and autumn,suggesting bacteria play an important role in the marine carbon cycle.

Advances in environmental behaviors and effects of dissolved organic matter in aquatic ecosystems

Dissolved organic matter(DOM) is a group of compounds that have complex chemical structures and multiple interactions with their surrounding materials. More than one trillion tons of DOM are stocked in the world's aquatic ecosystems. DOM is a very important part of aquatic ecosystem productivity and plays a crucial role in global carbon cycling. DOM has rich environmental behaviors and effects such as influencing the bioavailability of contaminants, serving as an important inducer of reactive oxygen species(ROS), and protecting aquatic organisms from the harm of dangerous ultraviolet radiation. There have been many systematic studies on the composition, structure, and sources of DOM because such studies are much easier to conduct than studies on the environmental behaviors and effects of DOM. Due to many factors, the research systems of DOM's environmental behaviors and effects are still being developed and have become a hotspot of environmental science. This review paper focuses on some critical progress, problems, and trends of DOM's environmental behaviors and effects in aquatic ecosystems, including mutual exchange mechanisms between DOM and particulate organic matter(POM) with influencing factors, photochemical behaviors of DOM especially inducing ROS, binding interactions between DOM and anthropogenic organic contaminants(AOC), interactions between DOM and microorganisms, effects of DOM on pollutants' bioavailability, ecotoxicity, and ecological risks. Hopefully, this paper will contribute to a more systematic understanding of the DOM environmental behaviors and effects and to promoting further relevant studies.
