RESUMO
Research of the aeration with bio-film technology was carried out to treat scenic water of a sanatorium in Beijing. The aim of the research was improving the water habitat by increasing the transparency and reducing the concentration of N and P. The equipments were set in a 5,000 m2 water area, which combined the plug flow jet aerator with the elastic biological filler. The research indicated that the transparency increased from 25 cm to 120 cm by the technology. The removal efficiencies of NH4(+)-N, NO3(-)-N and TP were 86.6% , 90% and 73.3%, but there was only 22.4% for TN. The concentration of DO increased from 4.3 mg/L to 7 mg/L. In a word, the aeration with bio-film technology was an effective measure to improve the water habitat by increasing the transparency.

Effects of chitosan on a submersed plant, Hydrilla verticillata, were investigated. Results indicated that H. verticillata could prevent ultrastructure phytotoxicities and oxidativereaction from polluted water with high chemical oxygen demand (COD). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents in H. verticillata treated with 0.1% chitosan in wastewater increased with high COD (980 mg/L) and decreased with low COD (63 mg/L), respectively. Ultrastructural analysis showed that the stroma and grana of chloroplast basically remained normal. However, plant cells from the control experiment (untreated with chitosan) were vacuolated and the cell interval increased. The relict of protoplast moved to the center, with cells tending to disjoint. Our findings indicate that wastewater with high COD concentration can cause a substantial damage to submersed plant, nevertheless, chitosan probably could alleviate the membrane lipid peroxidization and ultrastructure phytotoxicities, and protect plant cells from stress of high COD concentration polluted water.

Comparison research of different constructed wetland types to treat lake Wulihu water was carried out. Under the condition of the loading rates 0.8 m3/(m2 x d), the removal efficiencies of the vertical flow wetland (VFW), subsurface flow wetland (SFW) and free surface wetland(FSW) had the following results: To ammonia nitrogen (NH4(+)-N) the average removal rates were 33.2%, 27.4% and 14.1%, respectively; To total nitrogen (TN) the average removal rates were 52.3% , 50.1% and 19.2%, respectively; To total phosphorus (TP) the average removal rates were 58.8%, 57.9% and 26.3%, respectively; To permanganate index the average removal rates were 37.2%, 38.3% and 14.8%, respectively; To chlorophyll a (Chl-a) the average removal rates were 86.9%, 96.1% and 55.3%, respectively. Obviously, VFW and SFW are more effective than FSW at treating eutrophicated water such as Lake Wulihu which with characters of low organically pollution and with high nitrogen and phosphorus pollution, and the VFW is the most effective on the removal of NH4(+)-N, TN and TP. SFW is the most effective on the removal of permanganate index and Chl-a. The effluent stability of VFW is better than SFW, and the SFW is better than FSW.
