尽管下水道位于地下和看不见的地方,但它是城市基础设施的重要组成部分,用于运输安全处理的二手受污染的水。在下水道内,在输送废水的过程中,会发生一些过程,改变废水中的化学成分。这些过程很大程度上是由细菌进行的,其中很大一部分生活在生物膜中。这些微生物过程会导致下水道产生异味和腐蚀,从而影响下水道,导致需要昂贵的维修和控制策略。生物膜还可能造成大气中的温室气体和自然水生环境的污染,从而影响环境。然而,对生物膜功能的更深入的了解以及操纵生物膜的新技术和新方法可能会为我们提供控制这些问题的策略。此外,这些进展可能使我们能够为有益的目的设计下水道内生物膜,例如废水的管道内处理,潜在地导致减少对环境的影响.WIREs Water 2016,3:487-494.DOI:10.1002/Wat2.1144这篇文章被归类为:工程水;水工程的可持续工程;水、健康和卫生;水和水质科学
In spite of being under ground and out of sight, sewers are important parts of the urban infrastructure for transporting used, contaminated water for safe treatment. Within sewers, during the transport of waste water, processes take place, transforming the chemical components of the waste water. These processes are largely carried out by bacteria, a significant part of which live in biofilms. These microbial processes impact the sewers by causing odor and corrosion of the sewer pipes, leading to the need costly repair and control strategies. The biofilms may also impact the environment by contributing to greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere and pollution in natural aquatic environments. However, improved understanding of the function of biofilms and the novel techniques and approaches for manipulating biofilms may provide us with strategies for controlling these problems. Moreover, such advances may allow us to design in‐sewer biofilms for beneficial purposes such as in‐pipe treatment of waste water, potentially leading to decreased environmental impact.WIREs Water2016, 3:487–494. doi: 10.1002/wat2.1144This article is categorized under:Engineering Water > Sustainable Engineering of WaterEngineering Water > Water, Health, and SanitationScience of Water > Water Quality
