Consequently, studying the nitrogen on the suspended sediment with different influence of sediment on water quality of the particle sizes in the Lanzhou section of the Yellow Yellow River has become a priority for relevant River, China were studied. The effects of sediment departments. Ammonia is one of the prominent amount, concentration of ammonia nitrogen, pollutants and an excess of ammonia can lead to sediment size and chemical components on the phenomenon of eutrophication, as well as toxic ammonia nitrogen adsorption, were analyzed. The effects on fish and other aquatic organisms [2, 3]. results indicated that the Langmuir model provides Since Lanzhou city using the Yellow River water as a better description of equilibrium adsorption the main water source in industry and agriculture, capacity of ammonia nitrogen, and the adsorption as well as drinking water for people and livestock, kinetics fits well to the pseudo-second-order kinetic studying ammonia adsorption to the sediment has model. Sediment amount has a significant effect on important practical implications for understanding the adsorption of ammonia nitrogen, and both the the water self-purification capacity of the Lanzhou adsorption capacity and equilibrium time have section of the Yellow River [4, 5]. remarkable inverse relationships with the sediment At present, there are few studies on sediment amount. The initial concentration of ammonia adsorption and ammonia degradation, and most of nitrogen is positively correlated with ammonia them are confined to the middle reaches of the nitrogen adsorption capacity and equilibrium time. Yellow River. These studies typically focus on the In addition, the decrease of sediment size leads to role of sediment particles in the ammonia increase in the ability to absorb ammonia, the nitrification and degradation processes [6-10], but adsorption capacity and the degree of reaction research on adsorption of ammonia to the sediment spontaneity. Moreover, the contents of organic itself has rarely been reported. Furthermore, results matters, Fe O , Al O and MgO in the sediment of such research have not given adequate 2 3 2 3 increase with the decrease in particle size, which consideration to issues such as the impact of has a positive effect on the maximum adsorption ammonia adsorption, sediment classification, etc. capacity of sediment. In summary, the sediment This paper assesses water quality of the adsorption of ammonia has a positive effect on Lanzhou section of the Yellow River through water self-purification in Lanzhou section of the testing of silt content, sediment grain sizes and Yellow River, China. initial concentration of ammonia and other parameters. Detailed analysis revealed the role of KEYWORDS: sediment in ammonia adsorption and degradation the Yellow River; ammonia nitrogen; suspended processes in the Lanzhou section of the Yellow sediment; adsorption; water self-purification; adsorption River, providing a basis for environmental kinetics; Isothermal equilibrium assessment and water quality improvement of the Yellow River Basin. INTRODUCTION MATERIAL AND METHODS The Lanzhou section of the Yellow River, China is wide and shallow with a high silt content, Materials. The test water and sediment were in which the purification of aqueous-phase taken from the Silver Beach Bridge located in the pollutants mainly occurs through sediment Lanzhou section of the Yellow River. Samples were adsorption or subsidence[1]. Development of the collected from the middle of the river under the 4 – surface of flowing water by lowering a bucket sediment and stirring ensuring no silt remained at down with rope. After adequate precipitation, the the bottom of the bucket. After the two weeks supernatant and the sediment were collected, soaking period, the water was removed to allow the respectively. remaining sediment to dry. The effect of impurity The collected water samples had a pH range of on the sediment surface were eliminate by this 7.7-8.3 and the ammonia concentration ranged from procedure. 0.12-0.38 mg/L. The water samples were filtered The sediment sample was obtained by dry- through a 0.45 μm filter membrane, sealed and sieving through stainless steel sieves and then stored in dark at room temperature. analyzed to determine the sediment particle size The collected sediment was placed in a bucket, grading and major chemical composition. As shown which was then filled with river water. The in Fig. 1 and TABLE 1, the median particle sediment was left to soak for two weeks and the diameter (D) values of the three sediment grades water was changed twice daily. This process are 15.721, 43.660 and 67.188 μm. involved siphoning the water from the suspended TABLE 1 The main chemical composition of sediment in Lanzhou section of the Yellow River Median particle diameter D(µm) Organic matters Fe2O3 SiO2 Al2O3 MgO CaO Na2O K2O 15.721 1.154 6.17 51.85 15.33 3.34 9.61 1.35 3.19 43.660 0.286 3.93 54.74 9.49 1.89 9.53 2.58 1.79 67.188 0.217 2.56 57.34 6.36 1.12 8.78 2.87 1.27 FIGURE 1 Grading curve of sediment particles in Lanzhou section of the Yellow River TEST METHODS Adsorption modelAdsorption model.

Samples same manner as in the ammonia adsorption kinetics were splited into two groups: 200 ml of sample tests. The only differences were the time spent in water in Erlenmeyer flasks were (1) treated such the temperature oscillation chamber and the time that ammonia concentration in each sample was allowed to stay thermostatic before supernatant equal between samples and various sediment collection (48h and 2h, respectively). concentrations were used; (2) treated such that the sediment concentration in each sample was fixed and the initial ammonia concentration varied RESULTS AND DISCUSSION between samples. All the adsorption tests repeated in duplicate and the results are the mean values in Influence of sediment concentration on the this paper. To eliminate the effects of ammonia adsorption of ammonia nitrogen adsorbed on original sediment sample, The rate of ammonia adsorption over time blank test corrections were performed to reach the with an initial ammonia concentration of 1mg/L final determined values.
