Solid phase extraction (SPE) followed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was applied to quantitatively identify DEHP in wastewater samples. Membrane bioreactor was built and operated to investigate DEHP removal. Higher HRT removed DEHP more efficiently than lower HRT. The concentrated MLSS could achieve higher removal efficiency than the lighter MLSS at the same HRT value. The performance of MBR in removing DEHP, TOC and COD from wastewater with a maximum removal efficiency were 29%, 85%, and 98%, respectively. Mass balance of DEHP in the system indicated that a majority was removed by adsorption process rather than filtration or microbiological process.展开更多

The ef- fects of different parameters, such as the amounts of PAN and phenolphthalein, stirring time, various salts and metal ions on the enrichment yield of Cu(II) have been investigated to select the experimental conditions. Under the optimum conditions, Cu(II) can be totally adsorbed on the surface of microcrys- talline phenolphthalein. By controlling appropriate acidity (pH=1.0), Cu(II) is completely separated from Cd(II), Pb(II), Mn(II), Co(II), Fe(III), Ni(II), Al(III), Zn(II) and Hg(II) in the solution. The possible reaction mechanism of the enrichment of copper is discussed in detail in this paper. The detection limit of this proposed method is found to be 0.03 μg·L-1 with the enrichment factor of 200. The recovery is in a range of 96.8%―105%. The standard deviation is less than 2.5%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of trace copper in different water samples with satisfactory results.展开更多
