Heavy metals are one of the important factors that affect the final disposal of sewage sludge. In this paper, the metal mobility and bioavailability of heavy metals in sewage sludge were studied by using Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) sequential extraction procedure to get more information for the reasonable disposal of sludge. Sewage sludge was collected from five municipal wastewater treatment plants and three industrial wastewater treatment plants. The sludge was examined for and the total concentrations and different chemical fractions of Cd, Cr, Pb, Cu, Ni and Zn. The total metal concentrations of heavy metals in sludge varied greatly. The contents of Zn and Cu were the highest, followed by then Cr, Ni and Pb and the content of Cd was the least. There was no significant difference in total metal concentration between municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants. Fractions extracted by the BCR sequential procedure were acid soluble/exchangeable, reducible and oxidizable fraction. Sludge pH was found to have profound effect on the chemical fractions of heavy metals. Acidic sludges (Xiamen and Jinlin Petrochemical Group Co., wastewater treatment plant) had higher proportion of the acid soluble/exchangeable fractions than in neutral sludge. In neutral sludges, Pb and Cr were principally distributed in between the oxidizable fraction and the residual fraction; Cu was in the oxidizable fraction; Cd mainly in the residual fraction in municipal wastewater treatment plants and had high percentage of acid soluble/exchangeable and reducible fractions in industrial wastewater treatment plants; Ni and Zn had higher percentage in the acid soluble/exchangeable and the oxidizable fraction.

Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the mixture of wastewater discharged from a submerged multiport diffuser in the Nantong sea-area. The process was then simulated with a three-dimensional numerical model. The plane or line patch was used to impose the discharge momentumflux in the near field. A comparison of model simulation with laboratory experiments shows that the proposed model can be used to simulate the shapes of pollution plumes, the distributions of excess concentration, and the velocity induced by a coflowing diffuser in proximity to a shoreline boundary. From the numerical simulation and laboratory experiments, it is recommended that the multiport diffuser be placed in a hydrodynamically active sea-area.

The biodegradation rate constant (K) of 21 substituted phenols, anilines, and benzoic acids was determined by using bacteria from the Songhua River (Jilin Province, China) as an inoculum. All of the compounds studied are readily biodegradable chemicals, as shown by their high K values. The quantitative structure-biodegradation relationship results showed that the biodegradation rate of the studied compounds is related mainly to the heat of formation (Hf) and the negative logarithm of the ionization constant (pKa), whereas no simple relationship exists with the n-octanol-water partition coefficients. The equation K=-1.127

以江苏奎河为例，观测研究奎河污染物CODCr、NH+4 -N、NO-3-N、Cl-入渗进入地下水中发生物理、化学及生物变化的时空分布规律，分析河道沿岸土壤对污染物的去除能力。结果表明：河床的土壤对污染物CODCr具有很高的去除率，对NH+4 -N亦有较高的去除率。河道中的NO-3-N在入渗过程中虽有一定的去除率，但由于NH+4-N、NO-2-N等污染因子转化成NO-3 -N，因此该浓度不一定会明显降低。Cl-是保守性污染因子，入渗过程中虽有一定的去除率，但仍对沿岸地下水环境产生影响。因此，当污染河道中污染因子是保守性物质时，必须考虑对沿岸地下水源地的影响。
