Treatment of dairy wastewater using a selected bacterial isolate, Alcaligenes sp. MMRR7

Physicochemical and biologic analysis of dairy wastewater showed that the effluent had a high organic load (chemical oxygen demand [COD]: 5095 mg/L), an acidic pH (6.4), and a high probability of coliforms (most probable number [MPN]>1100). The various bacterial strains isolated and purified were identified as Sporolactobacillus sp., Citrobacter sp., Pseudomonas sp., Alcaligenes sp., Bacillus sp., Staphylococcus sp., and Proteus sp., as per the Bergey’s manual of systematic bacteriology. Among the five selected bacterial strains, the strain designated as MMRR₇ and identified as Alcaligenes sp. was found to give a maximum reduction in COD (62%) in 5 d of incubation. Chemical coagulation using alum at a concentration of 0.5 g/100 mL was found to be effective in the primary treatment of the effluent. Studies on free-cell treatment of the coagulated effluent with the selected bacterial strain Alcaligenes sp. MMRR₇ gave a maximum COD reduction of 91% in 120 h. This study clearly indicates the possibility of using Alcaligenes sp. MMRR₇ for the effective treatment of dairy wastewater.

近年来,随着癌症发病率的不断升高,癌症治疗技术的更新和发展显得尤为重要,特别是化学疗法(Chemotherapy)的提出促进了荧光小分子抗癌药物释放体系的研究。 将具有荧光效应的有机小分子与抗癌药物结合在一起,使得药物释放体系表现出低毒性、优异的癌细胞靶向性和方便药物跟踪监测等特点。 因此,设计不同性能的前药可以研究抗癌药物释放的动力学过程,为实现癌症的精准治疗提供有力的工具。 本文主要介绍了基于喜树碱、SN-38和阿霉素等前药的研究进展,并对其发展前景作了展望。     

热处理及与KOH共炭化对深度脱除煤中无机矿物质的促进作用

研究了煤经热处理（炭化）以及煤与ＫＯＨ共炭化对酸洗脱灰的影响。结果表明，煤经炭化再用盐酸洗涤，可以在缓和的条件下大幅度提高酸洗脱灰率；煤与ＫＯＨ共炭化后再酸洗，不仅对煤中的粘土、黄铁矿等无机矿物质有很好的效果，还特别适于脱除在一般情况下都难以除去的石英矿物。     

几种烟煤及其热处理后的溶胀性能研究

研究了四种不同变质程度烟煤及其二硫化碳/N-甲基-2-吡咯烷酮（CS2/NMP）混合溶剂(1∶1,vol)的抽提物在不同溶剂中的溶胀性能，同时考察了四种煤样不同温度热处理后其溶胀性能的变化。结果表明，煤的溶胀率随煤化度增加而有所降低;变质程度较低的烟煤在极性溶剂中的溶胀率大于非极性溶剂，随着煤化度的增加，两者溶胀度差距减小;四种烟煤经混合溶剂抽提后，其抽余煤的交联密度降低，溶胀率增加。四种煤样150℃热处理后在CS2中的溶胀率均有所增加，表明热处理可以降低煤的交联密度。随着热处理温度提高至240℃，除气煤外，其余三种煤样在NMP和CS2中溶胀率均进一步增大，说明其交联密度进一步降低。这一结果与热处理煤样在混合溶剂中抽提率的变化趋势一致，如240℃热处理后瘦煤的抽提率由原煤的6.9%提高到17.3%。红外光谱研究表明，经过适当温度的热处理，可以脱除煤分子中的羰基和羟基等含氧官能团，破坏煤结构中的氢键，从而降低煤的交联密度，提高煤的溶胀率及其在混合溶剂中的抽提率。     

Effect of ageing atmospheres on the changes in surface free energies of oxygen plasma-treated polyethylene films

The changes in the surface properties of oxygen plasma-treated polyethylene films during ageing in various atmospheres (water, dry nitrogen gas, and hexane) were studied from the viewpoint of the interaction of the surface functional groups formed on the films and the ageing media. The XPS (x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and the SSIMS (static secondary ion mass spectrometry) spectra indicated the formation of polar groups containing oxygen such as C=O on the film surface. The changes in the critical surface tension (_C) of the film with ageing time were largely affected by the ageing atmospheres: the _C value of the film aged in water increased, and those of the films aged in nitrogen gas and hexane decreased with an increase in ageing time. These different tendencies among the ageing media could be understood reasonably with examining the surface free energy ratios (the total energy, _S ^tot , the dispersion force component, _S ^d / _S ^tot , the polar component, _S ^p / _S ^tot , the hydrogen bonding component, _S ^h / _S ^tot ) of the films. The ageing in water of which _L is large gave the films with higher _S ^p / _S ^tot values, suggeting that the overturn and/or the orientation of the polar groups toward the water phase occurred so as to minimize the discrepancy of the surface free energy between the polymer surface and water. On the other hand, the ageing in nitrogen gas and hexane media of which _L are small gave the films with lower _S ^p / _S ^tot and _S ^h / _S ^tot values, suggesting the overturn and/or the orientation of the polar groups into the bulk polymer.

Note on the ab initio PUHF treatment of open-shell systems

Ab initio projected-unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations have been carried out on a number of excited and ionic states of the water molecule. Results have been compared with large-scale CI calculations, with IVO calculations, and with those of Mrozek and Golebiewski obtained by the 2 × 2 rotation method applied to orbitals. It is concluded that the PUHF method may provide the most useful alternative to large-scale CI for calculating properties of open-shell systems. But it will not be generally useful for calculating spectral transition energies.

The effect of electrochemically treated glassy carbon on the activity of supported Pt catalyst in methanol oxidation

Effect of electrochemical oxidation of glassy carbon on deposition of platinum particles and electrocatalytic activity of platinum supported on oxidized glassy carbon (Pt/GC_OX) were studied for methanol oxidation in H₂SO₄ solution. Platinum was potentiostatically deposited from H₂SO₄ + H₂PtCl₆ solution. Glassy carbon was anodically polarised in 0.5 M H₂SO₄ at 2.25 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE) during 35 s. Electrochemical treatment of GC support, affecting not significantly the real Pt surface area, leads to a better distribution of platinum on the substrate and has remarkable effect on the activity. The activity of the Pt/GC_OX electrode for methanol oxidation is larger than polycrystalline Pt and for more than one order of magnitude larger than Pt/GC electrode. This increase in activity indicates the pronounced role of organic residues of GC support on the properties of Pt particles deposited on glassy carbon.     

Effect of polarization on the electrode behavior and microstructure of (La,Sr)MnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> electrodes of solid oxide fuel cells

The electrode behavior and microstructure of freshly prepared (La_0.8Sr_0.2)_0.9MnO₃ (LSM) electrodes were investigated under various polarization conditions. The original, large agglomerates in freshly prepared LSM electrodes were broken down into sphere-shaped grains when exposed to cathodic or anodic current passage of 200 mA cm^–2 at 800 °C in air for 3 h. Microstructural changes under cathodic polarization could be related to the pronounced diffusion and migration of oxygen vacancies and Mn ions on the LSM surface and lattice expansion, while lattice shrinkage under oxidation conditions most likely contributes to the structural changes under anodic polarization. Such morphological changes were irreversible and were found to be beneficial to the performance of freshly prepared LSM electrodes. Freshly prepared LSM electrodes behaved very differently with respect to the cathodic and anodic current passage treatment.
