Effect of pH on Anti-Rotavirus Activity by Comestible Juices and Proanthocyanidins in a Cell-Free Assay System

Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) and grape (Vitis labrusca) juices, and these species?? secondary plant metabolites [i.e., proanthocyanidins (PACs)] possess antiviral activity. An understanding of the mechanism(s) responsible for these juices and their polyphenolic constituents?? direct effect on enteric virus integrity, however, remains poorly defined. Using the rotavirus (RTV) as a model enteric virus system, the direct effect of manufacturer-supplied and commercially purchased juices [Ocean Spray Pure Cranberry 100?% Unsweetened Juice (CJ), Welch??s 100?% Grape Juice (GJ), 100?% Concord (PG) and 100?% Niagara juices (NG)] and these species?? cranberry (C-PACs) and grape PACs (G-PACs) was investigated. Loss of viral capsid integrity in cell-free suspension by juices and their PACs, and as a factor of pH, was identified by an antigen (RTV) capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. At native and an artificially increased suspension at or near pH 7, loss of viral infectivity occurred after 5?min, in the order CJ?>?NG?=?GJ?>?PG, and PG?>?GJ?=?NG?=?CJ, respectively. Antiviral activity of CJ was inversely related to pH. Grape, but not cranberry PACs, displayed a comparatively greater anti-RTV activity at a suspension pH of 6.7. Anti-RTV activity of C-PACs was regained upon reduction of RTV-cranberry PAC suspensions to pH 4. An alteration or modification of Type A PAC (of V. macrocarpon) structural integrity at or near physiologic pH is suggested to have impacted on this molecule??s antivirus activity. Type B PACs (of V. labrusca) were refractive to alternations of pH. Significantly, findings from pure system RTV?CPAC testing paralleled and in turn, supported those RTV-juice antiviral studies. Electron microscopy showed an enshroudment by PACs of RTV particles, suggesting a blockage of viral antigenic binding determinants. The implications of our work are significant, especially in the interpretation of PAC (and PAC-containing food)?CRTV interactions in the differing [pH] conditions of the gastrointestinal tract.     

改性活性炭对水中PFOS的吸附去除研究

分别用FeCl3及中功率微波对煤质和椰壳2种粉末活性炭进行改性.序批式实验研究了活性炭改性前后对全氟辛烷磺酸(PFOS)的吸附特性.结合活性炭改性前后表面化学官能团和孔结构的变化特征,探讨了不同改性方式对PFOS吸附去除的影响效应以及天然有机物中的主要组成成分腐殖酸对PFOS在原炭及改性炭上的竞争吸附效应.结果表明,Fe3+及中功率微波处理对煤质炭和椰壳炭的孔结构和表面性质都有影响,但变化趋势不同.椰壳活性炭经Fe3+及中功率微波改性后对PFOS的吸附量明显提高,而煤质活性炭经改性后对PFOS的吸附量出现下降.改性椰壳活性炭与原炭吸附PFOS达到吸附平衡的时间基本相同,均为6 h左右.在腐殖酸存在下,改性椰壳炭对PFOS的吸附量因竞争吸附而有所下降,但改性炭的吸附量仍明显高于原炭.

针对300 MW燃煤机组,基于US EPA(美国国家环境保护局)的30 B汞监测方法,通过多点监测对比了实施低氮燃烧器改造、SCR脱硝改造、新增低温省煤器、静电除尘器高频电源改造、湿法脱硫塔脱硫提效并增加管式除雾、新增湿式静电除尘器技术路线开展的超低排放改造前后汞排放及分布特征.研究表明:超低排放改造前,神华煤w(Hg)为49 μg/kg,烟囱入口ρ(Hg)测量值为1.87 μg/m3;煤燃烧及经过污染物控制单元后,有35.0%的汞存在于灰中,有29.5%的汞存在于石膏中,有35.4%的汞从烟囱排出.超低排放改造后,神华煤中w(Hg)为30 μg/kg,烟囱入口ρ(Hg)测量值为0.46 μg/m3;脱硫进水及湿式除尘器进水对汞平衡几乎没有影响,煤燃烧及经过污染物控制单元后,有36.1%的汞存在于灰中,有55.2%的汞存在于石膏中,有8.7%的汞从烟囱排出.超低排放改造后,污染物控制设备的烟气综合脱汞效率提高了1.5倍左右,表明超低排放脱硝增强了对汞的催化氧化,而脱硫增强了对二价汞的吸收结果.湿式电除尘器对脱汞没有明显效果.      

Removal of bromate ion using powdered activated carbon

Bromate ion (BrO 3) removal from drinking water by powdered activated carbons (PAC S) in bath mode was evaluated under various operational conditions.Six kinds of PACs,including wood-based carbon,fruit-based carbon,coal-based carbon,and these three carbons thermally deoxidized in a nitrogen atmosphere,were selected to investigate their capacity on BrO 3 removal.With the highest zeta potential value and being richly mesoporous,coal-based carbon had a high and an excellent BrO 3 adsorption efficiency.The removal content of BrO 3 by per gram of coal-based carbon was 0.45 mg within 5 hr in 100 μg/L bromate solution.The surface characteristics of PACs and bromide formation revealed that both physical and chemical PACs properties simultaneously affected the adsorptionreduction process.Under acidic conditions,PAC S possessed high zeta value and adequate basic groups and exhibited neutral or positive charges,promoting BrO 3 adsorption-reduction on the carbon surface.Interestingly,the PAC S thermally deoxidized in N 2 atmosphere optimized their properties,e.g.increasing their zeta values and decreasing the oxygen content which accelerated the BrO 3 removal rate.The maximum adsorption capacity of fruit-based carbon was the highest among all tested carbons (99.6 mg/g),possibly due to its highest pore volume.Remarkably,the thermal regeneration of PACs in N 2 atmosphere could completely recover the adsorption capacity of PACs.The kinetic data obtained from carbons was analyzed using pseudo second-order and intraparticle diffusion models,with results showing that the intraparticle diffusion was the more applicable model to describe adsorption of BrO 3 onto PACs.

为了反映燃煤源对环境受体的影响情况,利用扩散模式（CALPUFF模式）对燃煤源多种子源类的排放、扩散过程进行模拟,得到燃煤源各子源类对环境受体中PM₁₀的影响权重,进而构建更具代表性的燃煤源成分谱.然后将受体颗粒物化学成分和两套源成分谱（基于环境影响构建的燃煤源成分谱和基于各子源类煤烟尘排放量加权平均的传统源成分谱）,分别纳入CMB模型进行乌鲁木齐市采暖季环境受体中PM₁₀的来源解析.结果表明：基于CALPUFF模拟结果,得到燃煤源的3类子源类­电厂、供热、工业燃煤源的影响权重分别为0.02、0.39和0.59.基于传统方法构建的源成分谱进行源解析的结果显示,各源类的贡献大小依次为：集中燃煤（27.2%） > 城市扬尘（19.1%） > 二次硫酸盐（15.7%） > 民用散煤（9.9%） > 二次硝酸盐（9.5%） > 机动车尾气尘（7.6%） > 钢铁尘（1.2%） > 建筑水泥尘（0.2%）;而基于环境影响构建的源成分谱获得的结果显示：二次硫酸盐（20.1%） > 城市扬尘（20%） > 集中燃煤（18.9%） > 民用散煤（11.5%）二次硝酸盐（10.5%） > 机动车尾气尘（9%） > 钢铁尘（1.7%） > 建筑水泥尘（1.4%）.基于不同燃煤源子源类对受体环境的影响权重,将乌鲁木齐市颗粒物来源解析结果进一步细分,得到相对精细化的来源解析结果.结果显示,民用散煤的贡献为11.5%,电厂燃煤源为0.4%,供热燃煤源为7.4%,工业燃煤源为11.1%.     

Comparative study on the removal technologies of 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) in drinking water

Removal of 2-methylisoborneol （MIB） in drinking water by ozone, powdered activated carbon （PAC）, potassium permanganate and potassium ferrate was investigated. The adsorption kinetics of MIB by both wood-based and coat-based PACs show that main removal of MIB occurs within contact time of 1 h. Compared with the wood-based PAC, the coat-based PAC evidently improved the removal efficiency of MIB. The removal percentage of trace MIB at any given time for a particular carbon dosage was irrelative to the initial concentration of MIB. A series of experiments were performed to determine the effect of pH on the ozonation of MIB. The results show that pH has a significant effect on the ozonation of MIB. It is conclusive that potassium permanganate and potassium ferrate are ineffective in removing the MIB in drinking water.

2005年中国燃煤大气砷排放清单

燃煤排放的砷是引起大气环境污染和经济损失的重要痕量元素之一.对燃煤大气砷排放进行估算可以为砷排放法规政策的制定和选择适宜的燃煤砷污染控制技术提供依据.采用基于燃料消耗的排放因子法,按照经济部门、燃烧方式和除尘设施将燃煤排放源进行分类,根据各省区不同排放类型的煤炭消耗量和燃煤平均砷含量,建立了2005年中国燃煤大气砷排放清单. 2005年中国燃煤生产和消耗量分别为2 119.8和2 099.8 Mt.燃煤导致的大气砷排放总量估算约为1 564.4 t,其中排放量最大的省区是山东（144.4 t）,其次是湖南（141.1 t）、河北（108.5 t）、河南（77.7 t）、江苏（77.0 t）等,燃煤大气砷排放主要集中在中东部省区;绝大部分燃煤大气砷排放来自工业（818.8 t）和电力部门（303.4 t）,分别占燃煤大气砷排放总量的52.3%和19.4%;2005年中国燃煤排放的砷大约有375.5 t是以气态形式排放到大气中,占排放总量的24%.总体上,在全国范围内燃煤大气砷污染排放控制的重点是电力和工业部门;而对于新疆、甘肃、青海、贵州等地区,还应关注生活消费燃煤引起的砷中毒事件.     

Spatial distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls in soil around a municipal solid waste incinerator

The impact of a typical municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) on polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) concentrations in the surrounding soil was studied. Six stack gas samples were taken from the MSWI and 21 soil samples were collected from sampling sites between 300 and 1700 m from the MSWI stack. The total (∑PCB) concentrations of dioxin-like (dl) PCBs and indicator PCBs in the stack gas samples were between 3.41 and 34.3 ng/m3, and the corresponding toxic equivalents (TEQs) ranged from 4.45 to 66.9 pg WHO-TEQ/m3, with a mean of 28.6 pg WHO-TEQ/m3. A total of 2.43 g WHO-TEQ of PCBs per year was calculated to be released into the environment from MSWIs in China. The ∑PCB concentrations in the soil samples ranged from 28.0 to 264.4 pg/g, with mean and median values of 127.6 and 127.7 pg/g, respectively, while the TEQ values were between 0.020 and 0.18 pg WHO-TEQ/g, with mean and median values of 0.074 and 0.062 pg WHO-TEQ/g, respectively. Comparing this study with other studies performed around the world suggest that PCB emission from incinerators has a critical influence on PCB concentrations in the surrounding soil. An exponential function equation is proposed, which indicates a clear decline in ∑PCB concentrations with increasing distance from the stack. A contour map created using an ordinary kriging interpolation technique showed that a limited area (1250 m radius) from the stack was clearly influenced by PCB emission from the MSWI.
