الوصف: | Modified clay (MC) technology is the most effective method to control harmful algal blooms (HABs) and has been widely testified in many countries in recent decades. Although dissolved algal organic matter (dAOM) has been found to be abundant in HAB-affected waters, little is known about its effect on MC flocculation. Prorocentrum donghaiense was chosen as the model organism in this study. The flocculation of MC with different concentrations of dAOM was observed by particle image velocimeter, and the removal efficiency of MC to microalgae was determined using a fluorometer. The results showed that a small amount of dAOM resulted in faster flocculation, larger flocs, higher floc strength and better floc regeneration capacity, and the removal efficiency of microalgae by MC could reach about 80%. However, large amounts of dAOM produced during the occurrence of HABs could inhibit the flocculation of MC, and the removal efficiency of microalgae was only about 35%. Furthermore, with the increase of dAOM, the zeta potential of MC particles decreases from 1.56 mV to −18.9 mV, and the repulsive force between the particles also increases. The examination of 18-angle laser light scattering gel permeation chromatography and specific ultraviolet absorption (SUVA254) revealed that some hydrophobic organic macromolecules preferred to attach to MC and increase MC flocculation at a tiny amount of dAOM, while a higher concentration of dAOM would inhibits flocculation by reducing surface activity and intergranular repulsion. According to the findings of this study, the dosage of MC must be increased in order to obtain the best algal removal efficiency with MC. |
