Alusveden hapetuksen ja PHOSLOCK-käsittelyn vaikutukset Kymijärven syvännepohjaeläimistöön - vuoden 2012 tulokset.
2013
[Johdanto] Tämä toinen Kymijärven syvännepohjaeläimistöä koskeva tutkimus toteutettiin syksyllä 2012. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää järven kunnostustoimena toteutetun hapetuksen sekä kesällä 2012 suoritetun PHOSLOCK-käsittelyn vaikutuksia Kymijärven syvänteiden pohjaeläimistöön ja ekologiseen tilaan. Järven pohjoista Myllypohjan syvännettä on hapetettu kesästä 2008 alkaen hapekasta päällysvettä alusveteen pumppaavalla Mixox-hapettimella (Kukkonen 2011). Alkukesästä 2012 eteläisessä Lapinkiven syvänteessä on järven kunnostustoimena lisäksi toteutettu PHOSLOCK-käsittely, jossa bentoniittisaveen liitetyt lantaani kationit (La³⁺) sitovat pohjaan laskeutuessaan valtaosan veden reaktiiv…
Nitrous oxide emissions in a membrane bioreactor treating saline wastewater contaminated by hydrocarbons
2016
The joint effect of wastewater salinity and hydrocarbons on nitrous oxide emission was investigated. The membrane bioreactor pilot plant was operated with two phases: i. biomass acclimation by increasing salinity from 10 gNaCl L−1 to 20 gNaCl L−1 (Phase I); ii. hydrocarbons dosing at 20 mg L−1 with a constant salt concentration of 20 gNaCl L−1 (Phase II). The Phase I revealed a relationship between nitrous oxide emissions and salinity. During the end of the Phase I, the activity of nitrifiers started to recover, indicating a partial acclimatization. During the Phase II, the hydrocarbon shock induced a temporary inhibition of the biomass with the suppression of nitrous oxide emissions. The r…
Single chamber microbial fuel cell with Ni-Co cathode
2017
The possibility of wastewater treatment and the parallel energy production using the Ni-Co alloy as cathode catalyst for single chamber microbial fuel cells is presented in this research. The research included a preparation of catalyst and comparison of COD, NH4 + and NO3 - reduction in the reactor without aeration, with aeration and with using a single chamber microbial fuel cell with Ni-Co cathode. The reduction time for COD with the use of microbial fuel cell with the Ni-Co catalyst is similar to the reduction time with aeration. The current density (2.4 A·m-2 ) and amount of energy (0.48 Wh) obtained in MFC is low, but the obtained amount of energy allows elimination of the energy neede…
