氟离子、磷酸根和铬酸根在可变电荷土壤表面吸附过程中羟基释放动力学

用恒pH自动电位滴定装置研究了氟离子(F-)、磷酸根(H2PO4-)和铬酸根(CrO42-)在3种可变电荷土壤表面吸附过程中羟基(-OH)释放的动力学。研究结果表明,3种阴离子在可变电荷土壤表面吸附时-OH释放量的大小顺序为:F->>H2PO4->CrO42-,这与土壤对3种阴离子吸附量的大小顺序一致。pH对不同阴离子体系中-OH释放的影响不同,在F-体系中,pH5.0时-OH释放量最高,其次为pH6.0时,pH4.0时-OH释放量最小;CrO42-体系中-OH释放量随pH的增加而减小;pH对H2PO4-体系中-OH释放的影响较小。Elovich方程(Y=a kln(t))能够很好拟合2～60min之间的动力学数据,说明-OH释放的速率随时间增加而减小。比较速率常数k的大小可以发现,虽然F-体系中3种可变电荷土壤在前2min释放的-OH量有很大差异,但在2～60min内,-OH释放速率差别不大。在H2PO4-和CrO42-体系中,-OH释放速率的大小顺序是:昆明砖红壤>徐闻砖红壤>江西红壤,与土壤铁、铝氧化物含量一致。     

CrO42-对两种可变电荷土壤表面电荷的影响

对两种可变电荷土壤的研究结果表明,加入铬酸根(CrO42-)能增加土壤的表面负电荷,减小土壤的表面正电荷的量。CrO42-对表面正电荷的影响程度随体系pH的增加而减小,对负电荷的影响呈相反的趋势。CrO42-对表面电荷的影响程度也随其加入量的增加而增加。CrO42-主要通过自身的吸附来影响土壤的表面电荷,因为伴随着土壤表面电荷的变化,CrO42-在土壤中发生明显的吸附。而且土壤对CrO42-的吸附量随其加入量的增加而增加,随pH的升高而减小,与土壤电荷的变化趋势基本一致。     

发育程度对海南玄武岩发育土壤吸附铬酸根和磷酸根的影响

选择海南岛北部3个不同年代喷发的玄武岩发育的土壤研究了其对铬酸根(CrO42-)和磷酸根(PO43-)的吸附特征,结果表明随着母岩年龄的增加,土壤发育程度提高,土壤游离氧化铁和表面正电荷数量增加,对2种阴离子的吸附量增加。土壤CrO42-的解吸率在19.8%~39.6%之间,表明土壤对CrO42-的吸附涉及静电吸附和专性吸附2种机制,且随着土壤发育程度增加,CrO42-静电吸附所占比例增加。土壤对PO43-的吸附以非静电吸附为主,吸附的PO43-的解吸量非常低,其解吸率不超过6%。吸附PO43-在去离子水中的解吸量高于在0.1 mol/L NaNO3和KNO3中的解析量,KNO3体系中的解吸量低于NaNO3体系中的,电解质主要通过改变胶体表面离子吸附面上的静电电位影响PO43-的解吸。     

Molecular characterization of chromium (VI) reducing potential in Gram positive bacteria isolated from contaminated sites

Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is highly toxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic to man and other animals. Some bacterial species have the ability to reduce Cr(VI) to a stable speciation state of trivalent chromium [Cr(III)], which is insoluble and comparatively less toxic. Therefore, the reduction of Cr(VI) thus provides potential as a means for environmental bioremediation of Cr(VI) pollution. In the present study bacteria isolated from chromium and diesel contaminated sites were found to have the ability to rapidly reduce highly toxic concentrations of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) when grown in minimal medium supplemented with glucose as the sole carbon source. Partial chromate reductase gene sequences were retrieved after PCR amplification of genomic DNA extracted from three Gram positive isolates which were highly similar (>99% sequence similarity) to chromate reductase genes found in Gram negative bacteria, more specifically those identified from Escherichia coli and Shigella spp. whole-genome studies. The isolated bacteria were putatively identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing as Arthrobacter aurescens strain MM10, Bacillus atrophaeus strain MM20, and Rhodococcus erythropolis strain MM30.
