In the present study, comprehensive investigation on the spot and typical investigation method were used to assess Mn, Zn, Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, As and Cu level, pH value, organic matter, total nitrogen and total phosphorus contents in soil of Changchun municipal waste landfill. The results showed that soil in the closure area of Changchun municipal waste landfill was alkaline in nature and the average value of organic matter, total nitrogen and total phosphorus contents were lower than that in normal black soil in Changchun City of Jilin Province. Single factor indices of As, Pb and Cr content was > 1, where P(As) was 1.131, P(Pb) 1.061 and P(Cr) 1.092 mildly contaminated. In different sample spots but the same landfill time, the comprehensive Nemerow contamination indexes of 7a (5 #) and 7a (2 #) were P(2 comprehensive) = 1.176 and P(5 comprehensive) = 1.229. The performance value of of heavy metal contamination in soil was similar and there was a low ecological risk.Microbial communities in three drinking water reservoirs, with different depth in Xi'an city, were quantified by phospholipids fatty acids analysis and multivariate statistical analysis was employed to interpret their response to different hydrostatic pressure and other physico-chemical properties of sediment and overlying water. Principle component analyses of sediment characteristics parameters showed that hydrostatic pressure was the most important effect factor to differentiate the overlying water quality from three drinking water reservoirs from each other. NH4+ content in overlying water was positive by related to hydrostatic pressure, while DO in water-sediment interface and sediment OC in sediment were negative by related with it. Three drinking water reservoir sediments were characterized by microbial communities dominated by common and facultative anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria, as well as, by sulfur oxidizing bacteria. Hydrostatic pressure and physico-chemical properties of sediments (such as sediment OC, sediment TN and sediment TP) were important effect factors to microbial community structure, especially hydrostatic pressure. It is also suggested that high hydrostatic pressure and low dissolved oxygen concentration stimulated Gram-positive and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) bacterial population in drinking water reservoir sediment. This research supplied a successful application of phospholipids fatty acids and multivariate analysis to investigate microbial community composition response to different environmental factors. Thus, few physico-chemical factors can be used to estimate composition microbial of community as reflected by phospholipids fatty acids, which is difficult to detect.The optimum operating conditions for TiO2 photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline antibiotic (TC) in aqueous solution and the role of active oxidative species (AOS) from UV/TiO2 in its degradation were investigated. Response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD) were adopted to optimize three parameters TiO2 concentration, initial pH and UV irradiation time. Radical scavengers were added to reaction solution to assess the photocatalytic reaction mechanism of TC. The results showed that 93.1% degradation efficiency was obtained under optimum conditions established during experimentation (TiO2 concentration = 2.09 g l(-1), pH = 5.56 and t = 20.95 min). These results agree with the prediction made by the proposed model. Photocatalytic degradation of TC followed a pseudo first-order reaction rate. Photogenerated holes (h+(VB)) with minor participation from superoxide anions (O2*), were responsible for TC oxidation on TiO2, while hydroxyl radicals (*OH) played a negligible role in titania-TC oxidation.Environmental, economical and efficient antifoaming technology is the basis for achievement of foam drilling fluid recycling. The present study designed a novel two-stage laval mechanical foam breaker that primarily uses vacuum generated by Coanda effect and Laval principle to break foam. Numerical simulation results showed that the value and distribution of negative pressure of two-stage laval foam breaker were larger than that of the normal foam breaker. Experimental results showed that foam-breaking efficiency of two-stage laval foam breaker was higher than that of normal foam breaker, when gas-to-liquid ratio and liquid flow rate changed. The foam-breaking efficiency of normal foam breaker decreased rapidly with increasing foam stability, whereas the two-stage laval foam breaker remained unchanged. Foam base fluid would be recycled using two-stage laval foam breaker, which would reduce the foam drilling cost sharply and waste disposals that adverse by affect the environment.In a mine area, some environment geotechnics problems always occure, induced by mined-out region such as the subsidence and cracks at ground level, deformation and destruction of buildings, landslides destruction of water resources and the ecological environment. In order to research the migration of surrounding rock and coal in steeply inclined super high seams which used fully mechanized top coal caving, a working face of a certain mine was made as an example, analyzed the migration law of the overlay rock and coal under different caving ratio of fully mechanized top coal caving with numerical simulation analysis. The results suggest that the laws of overlay rock deformation caused by deeply inclined coal seam were different from horizontal coal seam. On the inclined direction, with an increase of dip angle and caving ratio, the vertical displacement of overlay rock and coal became greater, the asymmetric phenomenon of vertical displacement became obvious. On the trend direction, active region and transition region in goaf became smaller along with the increase of mining and caving ratio. On the contrary, the stable region area became greater. Therefore, there was an essential difference between the mechanism of surface movement deformation with deeply inclined coal seam and that with horizontal coal seam.Wastewater contaminated by sulfur, nitrogen and carbon compounds was treated by sulfide-based denitrification process in an expanded granular sludge bed packed with porous sponge. In influent, nitrate and nitrite served as electron acceptors, while sulfide and organic carbon served as electron donors. Both sulfide-based autotrophic denitrification and heterotrophic denitrification were found in the bioreactor. The percentage of heterotrophic denitrification was 36.5%, and the removal rates of sulfide, nitrate, nitrite and organic carbon were 99%, 99%, 95.5% and 80% respectively, which actualized the simultaneous mixotrophic denitrification and desulfurization. The effect factors such as organic carbon category, organic carbon loading rate and nitrite loading rate were also investigated. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/shp099-dihydrochloride.html The 50 mg Cl(-1)d(-1) of glucose and 25 mg Cl(-1) d(-1) acetate sodium were found good for sulfide-based denitrification, while the suitable loading rate of nitrite was 50 mg Nl(-1)d(-1).Vibrio anguillarum strain M3 was isolated from cultured diseased flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. In order to determine whether chromosomal angR gene plays an important role in infecting flounder host, part fragment of a virulence regulatory gene angR from V. anguillarum M3 genome was cloned and ligated with suicide plasmids pNQ705 in the present study. The conserved fragment of angR gene was amplified from M3 genome and inserted into suicide plasmid pNQ705, a kind of conditional replicon. The recombinant plasmid was transferred into Vibrio anguillarum M3 strain genomic DNA through bacterial conjugation and homologous recombination. A mutant V. anguillarum strain with angR gene mutation was constructed and screened successfully using TCBS medium containing chloramphenicol. PCR identification and sequencing showed that the recombinant plasmid inserted into Vibrio anguillarum genome DNA, as expected design, resulted in insertional inactivation of angR gene. Results of artificial infection experiment showed that virulence of mutant Vibrio anguillarum strain reduced dramatically as compared with the wild strain M3.Underground gas storage is a well-known strategic practice to seasonal peak shaving and emergency facility. The changing operation conditions of injection-production network directly affects the reliability of downstream gas supply of the city. In the present study, a model of injection-production network on the basis of field data analysis and research was established. link2 By comparing the actual node pressure and simulation results, the reliability of model was verified. Based on the volume of underground gas storage and downstream gas consumption, the best seasonal peak-shaving schedule of the whole year was set. According to dynamic analysis of network, 20% increase in downstream demand could be fulfilled. Besides, the study also analyzed the well pressure and flow rate changes after shutdown of gas well, which is most likely to fail, and concludes that the best rescue time should be within 4 hr after gas supply interruption. The results would help in making decisions about the operation of injection-production network, which have important significance in the environmental protection.Carbon -di-oxide (CO2) is regarded as the most important greenhouse gas to accelerate climate change and ocean acidification. link3 The Chinese government is seeking methods to reduce anthropogenic CO2 gas emission. CO2 capture and geological storage is one of the main methods. In addition, injecting CO2 is also an effective method to replenish formation energy in developing tight oil reservoirs. However, exiting methods to estimate CO2 storage capacity are all based on the material balance theory. This was absolutely correct for normal reservoirs. However, as natural fractures widely exist in tight oil reservoirs and majority of them are vertical ones, tight oil reservoirs are not close. Therefore, material balance theory is not adaptive. In the present study, a new method to calculate CO2 storage capacity is presented. The CO2 effective storage capacity, in this new method, consisted of free CO2, CO2 dissolved in oil and CO2 dissolved in water. Case studies of tight oil reservoir from Ordos Basin was conducted and it was found that due to far lower viscosity of CO2 and larger solubility in oil, CO2 could flow in tight oil reservoirs more easily. As a result, injecting CO2 in tight oil reservoirs could obviously enhance sweep efficiency by 24.5% and oil recovery efficiency by 7.5%. CO2 effective storage capacity of Chang 7 tight oil reservoir in Longdong area was 1.88 x 10(7) t. The Chang 7 tight oil reservoir in Ordos Basin was estimated to be 6.38 x 10(11) t. As tight oil reservoirs were widely distributed in Songliao Basin, Sichuan Basin and so on, geological storage capacity of CO2 in China is potential.Ping Chau Formation has long been regarded as the youngest formation in Hong Kong since its emergence from Tung Ping Chau, an island on the northeast of Mirs Bay of New Territories. On the basis of field survey, the present study re-collates and re-stipulates typical sedimentary structure and sedimentary environment of Ping Chau Formation at Tung Ping Chau. Furthermore, with combination of geochemical laboratory methods for the first time a systematic analysis of the major and trace elements of Ping Chau Formation, and geochemical characteristics of rare earth elements were studied. The results showed that Ping Chau Formation was formed in a passive continental margin structural environment; the study area belonged to transition facies ranging from brackish water to fresh water, with salinity increase from bottom to top on the profile showing a tendency of gradual salinization, The sedimentary environment of Ping Chau Formation had an anoxic reducing environment; The study concluded that Ping Chau Formation was formed in a reducing environment of brackish water or shore-shallow lake with low salinity.
