Background
Arsenic (As), which is commonly present in the environment, is a highly mobile, highly toxic pollutant and is of high interest. A large amount of arsenic-containing wastewater is discharged into the environment in the production process of the industries of chemical industry, metal smelting, semiconductors, breeding, electroplating and the like. The method for repairing the water source polluted by the arsenic comprises a chemical ion exchange method, solvent extraction, chelation, filter membrane filtration, a reduction method, precipitation and the like, but the methods have high general operation cost and low economic efficiency, have no obvious effect on treating the water body polluted by the arsenic with lower solubility, are difficult to put into practical use, and are easy to generate precipitates and toxic compounds to cause secondary pollution. How to treat arsenic-containing polluted water efficiently and economically becomes one of the important problems in the field of water environment.
The microalgae are widely distributed in natural environment and have the characteristics of multiple types, large quantity and the like. As a common bioremediation agent, the microalgae can be used for removing heavy metals in a water environment, even can be used for treating and recovering metals in a water body, has the advantages of high efficiency, low consumption, environmental protection and the like, and has the following advantages when used for repairing arsenic-polluted water bodies: (1) the raw materials are rich in source, high in growth speed, low in price and easy to obtain; (2) high adsorption and absorption enrichment effects are simultaneously generated, and the removal rate is high; (3) has good selectivity; (4) arsenic absorbed by adsorption is easy to elute and discharge, and metal recovery is facilitated; (5) no secondary pollution is generated; (6) wide environmental adaptability and wide application range.
The environmental parameters of the water body polluted by arsenic in the natural environment are varied, and the method has great restriction influence on the accumulation capacity of the microalgae arsenic. By creating appropriate environmental parameters, the arsenic accumulation capacity of the microalgae can be improved, the arsenic removal performance of the microalgae can be promoted, and the bioremediation capacity of the microalgae on arsenic-polluted water bodies can be further improved. Therefore, how to determine the key environmental parameters which restrict the arsenic accumulation capacity of the microalgae becomes an important research problem.

S44, analyzing the maximum signal-to-noise ratio of the corresponding parameters according to the signal-to-noise ratio calculation result, thereby obtaining the optimal environment restriction parameters; and further analyzing the percentage contribution degree of the factors, and sequencing the optimal environmental parameters so as to determine the key environmental parameters which restrict the arsenic accumulation capacity of the microalgae. Sequencing is carried out according to the maximum signal-to-noise ratio calculation result and the larger factor percentage contribution degree, and the phosphorus is found to be the most key factor for restricting the arsenic accumulation capacity of the microcystis aeruginosa. Nitrogen is an important factor for the growth of microcystis aeruginosa and the release rate of microcystis aeruginosa arsenic. Pentavalent arsenic (As)V) Has little influence on the growth of algae. Therefore, the high level of nitrogen and the low concentration of phosphorus in alkaline conditions are beneficial to the accumulation of arsenic in the microcystis aeruginosa and reduce the release of arsenic, and the microcystis aeruginosa is the best condition for the pentavalent arsenic pollution remediation.
Therefore, according to the method for determining the key environmental parameter restricting the accumulation capacity of the arsenic in the microalgae provided by the embodiment of the invention, the key environmental parameter restricting the accumulation capacity of the arsenic in the microalgae determined in the embodiment is beneficial to the remediation of the arsenic pollution in the water environment, and a reliable data basis can be provided for the remediation and maintenance of the arsenic polluted water body.
