秸秆发电和气化残余物作为肥料在水稻生产上的应用研究

秸秆发电和气化残余物(下称草木灰),其含有丰富的大量和中微量元素,如K、Ca、P、Mg、Si、Cu、Zn、B等,其中钾含量尤为丰富。而水稻是一种喜钾和硅的作物。将草木灰作为钾肥应用于水稻的生产上,一方面可节约生产成本,另一方面还可以改善大米的品质;但草木灰同时还含有重金属元素,过量的施入势必会带来土壤环境的恶化,本文通过分析土壤中和大米中重金属含量的变化,得出本试验中草木灰的施入不会引起环境的恶化;从生产成本和水稻产量与品质上综合考虑得出处理木灰1 50%替代化学钾肥和草木灰2 75%替代化学钾肥是最佳施肥处理。     

Behavior of phenolic substances in the decaying process of plants

The behavior of phenolic substances in the decaying process of rice straw, ladino clover, and fanen leaves of red oak under moist conditions, and also of rice straw under various conditions were compared in the laboratory. The amounts of phenolic substances, divided into either humic acid and fulvic acid fractions, or ether-extractable, butanol-extractable and organic solvent-unextractable fractions, and the amounts of individual phenolic acids were periodically determined during incubation for 150 days. The following results were obtained.

1) The amounts and behavior of phenolic substances in various fractions differed considerably among the plant materials. The total amount of phenolic substances was remarkably larger in red oak leaves than in the others during the whole period of incubation. The amounts of phenolics in the fulvic acid fraction changed to a larger extent than those in the humic acid fraction during the decaying process of plant materials. The changes in total amount of phenolics in decaying red oak leaves and ladino clover were mainly due to changes in the level of relatively hydrophilic phenolics in the fulvic acid fraction, but the changes in decaying rice straw were mainly due to changes in the level of relatively lipophilic phenolics.

2) Rice straw and ladino clover, especially the former, contained large amounts of p-coumaric and ferulic acids, but these decreased rapidly in the early stage of the decaying process. The amounts in red oak leaves were small, but did not decrease markedly during incubation.

3) The changes in amounts of phenolics in both humic acid and fulvic acid fractions in the decaying process of rice straw were largely influenced by temperature, moisture, and pH, but not to a large extent by C/N ratio and the presence of soil. At higher temperatures under moist conditions, phenolic substances disappeared rapidly. Also, acidification of the system inhibited the degradation process.     

Effect of rice variety on methane emission from an Indonesian paddy field

Variations in CH₄ emission from a Sumatra paddy field in which 8 popular modern varieties in Indonesia were grown were compared in the 1994/1995 rainy season. Total amounts of CH₄ emitted during the period of rice growth were in the ranges of 32.6-41.7 and 51.3–64.6 g CH₄ m^-2 for the plots amended with chemical fertilizer only and those amended with both rice straw and chemical fertilizer, respectively. The mean CH₄ emission rate was highest in the plot with the variety Bengawan solo and lowest in the plots with the varieties Atomita-4 and Way seputih among the plots which received chemical fertilizer, while highest in the plot with Way seputih and lowest in the plot with Bengawan solo among the plots amended with both rice straw and chemical fertilizer. The increase in the mean CH₄ emission rates by rice straw application was higher for the plots planted with Way seputih (1.98 times) and Atomita-4 (1.77 times) than for the plots with Bengawan solo (1.23 times) and IR-64 (1.35 times). The plots with Walanai and Cisanggarung recorded intermediate mean emission rates and the increase in CH₄ emission by rice straw application was also intermediate (1.57–1.64 times). It was noteworthy that Way seputih and Atomita-4 were derived from the variety Cisadane, Bengawan solo and IR-64 from the variety IR-54, and Walanai and Cisanggarung from the varieties IR-36 and Pelita 1-1, respectively.

The amounts of CH. emitted for 1 kg grain production ranged from 53 (Atomita-4) to 74 (Kapuas and Walanai) and from 89-93 (IR-64, Bengawan solo, and Atomita-4) to 121 (Kapuas) g CH₄ kg^-1 of grain for the plots amended with chemical fertilizer and those amended with rice straw and chemical fertilizer, respectively.     

Biochar derived from dairy cattle carcasses as an alternative source of phosphorus and amendment for soil acidity

Two pot experiments were conducted to evaluate biochar derived from dead dairy cattle as a mineral fertilizer, especially phosphorus (P) fertilizer, and to clarify the effect of particle size of biochar on plant growth (Zea mays L.) and P uptake. To produce the biochar, body parts of dead cattle were placed in a charring chamber and allowed to char at 450°C for 4 h. The biochar was of high pH and rich in major plant nutrients, especially P. Application of fine biochar (< 1 mm) increased P uptake by the corn plants grown in soil of low available P status. As a result, plant growth was improved following biochar application and dry matter production was also increased. The effect of the biochar application on the P uptake and plant growth was promoted by the application of mineral nitrogen (N) fertilizer. Soil analysis after harvest indicated that the biochar application increased soil pH, available P and exchangeable calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) compared with the soil before seeding, while soil available N and exchangeable potassium (K) were considerably decreased. The decrease in the soil available N was incomprehensible, because the result of the mass balance given by the difference between input as the applied N from the biochar and fertilizer N and output as the N uptake by the plants was positive. We observed a similar result in the mass balance of K to the case of N. The medium (2–4 mm) and coarse (> 4 mm) grade biochar did not significantly affect plant growth, because P uptake was not, or was only slightly, increased by the application of these biochars. Dissolution of P from the coarser biochars was probably slower than that of the fine biochar. The lower dissolution of P from the medium and coarse biochars was supported by the lower P absorption efficiency of these biochars compared with that of the fine biochar and superphosphate. The effect of fine biochar on plant growth and P uptake was similar to that of superphosphate. We can therefore conclude that fine biochar derived from cattle carcasses is an effective source of P fertilizer and amendment for soil acidity. The N and K contents in the biochar, although relatively high, cannot be relied upon as a mineral fertilizer. Further studies are needed to assess whether the N and K contents of the biochar indicate it can be regarded as a useful fertilizer.     

温度对麦秸混合物料厌氧干发酵中糖类水解酶活性的影响

水解酶活性直接影响到秸秆厌氧干发酵的沼气产量。本文以麦秸为主要原料, 配制干物质含量(TS)35%的混合发酵物料, 设置20 ℃、25 ℃、30 ℃、35 ℃、40 ℃ 5种不同温度条件, 发酵周期为35 d, 测定发酵过程中料液的纤维素酶、木聚糖酶、淀粉酶和蔗糖酶的活性变化。结果表明, 沼气产气高峰在35 ℃左右, 20~40 ℃时, 随着温度的升高, 发酵后料液的料液干物质含量(TS)、可挥发固体含量(VS)、C/N均明显下降, 发酵产沼气后, 各处理发酵液 pH都降到7.0以下, 其中40 ℃的pH降低幅度最大。纤维素酶活性在发酵初期较低, 峰值出现也较晚, 温度升高明显有利于提高纤维素酶活性。木聚糖酶的起始活性较高, 整个发酵过程中呈先升高后降低并渐趋于平缓的变化趋势, 20~25 ℃处理的木聚糖酶活性在整个发酵过程中没有明显峰值。淀粉酶的起始活性较低, 但随后迅速升高, 30~40 ℃处理在10 d左右达到峰值后开始下降, 此后酶活力的变化幅度较前期平稳。蔗糖酶的起始酶活力较低, 随后升高迅速, 温度在30 ℃以上时酶活性增加更快, 35 ℃时15 d达到峰值后迅速下降, 下降速度明显大于30 ℃和40 ℃处理。由此可见, 温度对秸秆厌氧干发酵过程中不同水解酶活性的影响还是有所差异的。     

冻融期秸秆覆盖量对土壤剖面水热时空变化的影响

为了揭示季节性冻融期秸秆覆盖量对土壤剖面水热时空变化的影响,分析对比了裸地和5种不同玉米秸秆覆盖厚度(5、10、15、20和30 cm)地块的土壤剖面含水率和土壤温度等值线变化特征,采用数理统计分析方法对土壤剖面水热变化进行了统计学分析。结果表明:在季节性冻融期,裸地最大冻结深度为52 cm,土壤剖面水热变化较为剧烈,0~40 cm属于水热变化活跃层,覆盖厚度为5和10 cm时的土壤剖面水热变化活跃层分别为0~20和0~10 cm。秸秆覆盖厚度为15 cm时可平抑土壤剖面水热的变化,并能达到良好的保温效果。秸秆覆盖厚度为5 cm时,在土壤冻融作用和秸秆覆盖的双重效应下,耕作层土壤水分较其他地块高,储水保墒效果显著。当秸秆覆盖厚度大于15 cm时,土壤保墒保温效果不随秸秆覆盖量的增加而增强。从预防冻害和蓄水保墒角度出发,最佳秸秆覆盖厚度为10~15 cm。研究成果对于季节性冻土地区冬春季节农田秸秆覆盖的科学实施具有重要的指导意义。

热解油水相酸洗-烘焙二级预处理改善玉米秸秆热解特性

烘焙和酸洗都是可提升生物质品质的预处理方法。烘焙可以脱除生物质中的氧,酸洗则可有效脱除碱金属及碱土金属,而氧和AAEMs对热解油的品质和产率均具有影响。该文研究了酸洗-烘焙两级耦合预处理对玉米秸秆热解特性的影响。试验用酸液取自热解联产联供示范项目热解油的水相部分,烘焙温度选取230、260、290℃。研究发现,酸洗预处理能够有效脱除AAEMs,对K、Na、Mg脱除率分别达到97.53%、81.38%、84.86%。两级预处理能明显降低O/C;酸洗-290℃烘焙半焦相比玉米秸秆原样,O/C降低了25.32%。两级预处理能明显削弱烘焙对热解油产率的不利影响,酸洗-290℃烘焙半焦相比290℃烘焙半焦,其热解油产率提高127.66%;两级预处理显著提高了热解油中糖类的含量,同时降低了酚类和酸类的含量;对酸洗-290℃烘焙半焦,其热解油中糖类含量高达45.89%,酚类和酸类则低至9.76%和6.31%。其他化学组成如酮类和呋喃类的含量存在一定程度的下降,醛类含量则有小幅度的提升。该文提出的利用热解联产联供示范项目热解油的水相部分对秸秆进行酸洗,并结合烘焙的两级预处理方法可为对生物质热解提供参考。     

大型秸秆沼气集中供气工程温室气体减排估算

发展秸秆沼气工程可有效地减少农业温室气体排放,科学核算温室气体减排量为管理和监督温室气体排放状况提供数据支撑。该文以河北省沧州市耿官屯大型秸秆沼气集中供气工程为研究对象,参考和借鉴了自愿减排项目方法学、CDM方法学,构建了大型秸秆沼气集中供气工程温室气体减排计量方法,包括项目边界、基准线排放量、项目排放量、泄漏量、减排量5个方面,计算了2014年耿官屯大型秸秆沼气集中供气工程温室气体减排量。研究结果表明:项目基准排放量包括秸秆处理产生的温室气体排放、未建秸秆沼气工程情况下农村居民生活用能及农田施用化肥生产耗能产生的温室气体排放。项目排放量包括秸秆与沼肥运输过程耗能排放、工程运行过程耗能排放及沼气处理温室气体排放,项目泄漏量即沼气生产、储存、管网供气和利用过程中产生的因物理泄漏所造成的排放。2014年耿官屯大型秸秆沼气集中供气工程基准线CO2排放量为5 776.15 t,项目排放量为57.53 t,泄漏量为136.59 t,减排量为5 582.03 t,约相当于2 100 t标准煤CO2排放量,每消耗1 t(干质量)秸秆可净减排3.56 t,每利用1 m3沼气可净减排11.50 kg。同时,在工程设计、管道设计、工程管理、工艺技术改良升级等方面提出了提升大型秸秆沼气工程温室气体减排能力的策略。     

添加尿素和无机盐土对秸秆厌氧消化的影响

向厌氧消化体系加入外源添加剂是一种有效且简单的用于提高产气效率的方法。为了解决秸秆厌氧消化原料转化率低、易酸化、厌氧消化时间长等问题,该文选取尿素和无机盐土作为秸秆厌氧消化的添加剂,研究比较不同添加量对玉米秸秆厌氧消化过程产气特性、发酵环境、微生物活性以及物能转化效率的影响。结果表明,对于出现酸化问题且甲烷菌活性较低的厌氧消化系统,添加尿素和无机盐土有利于缓解酸化并促进微生物生长繁殖,三磷酸腺苷（ATP）峰值时的微生物数量可增加2.76×1011-5.31×1011个/L。添加一定量的尿素和无机盐土可使产气高峰提前,添加10%的无机盐土处理组与纯秸秆处理相比,产气高峰可提前4d;但酸化也会削弱尿素和无机盐土对产甲烷过程的促进作用,添加量越大,削弱效果越显著。研究结果可为秸秆厌氧消化的工程应用提供参考。
