Evaluation of soil washing process with carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin and carboxymethyl chitosan for recovery of PAHs/heavy metals/fluorine from metallurgic plant site

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)/heavy metals/fluorine(F) mixed-contaminated sites caused by abandoned metallurgic plants are receiving wide attention. To address the associated environmental problems,this study was initiated to investigate the feasibility of using carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin(CMCD) and carboxymethyl chitosan(CMC) solution to enhance ex situ soil washing for extracting mixed contaminants. Further,Tenax extraction method was combined with a first-three-compartment model to evaluate the environmental risk of residual PAHs in washed soil. In addition,the redistribution of heavy metals/F after decontamination was also estimated using a sequential extraction procedure. Three successive washing cycles using50 g/L CMCD and 5 g/L CMC solution were effective to remove 94.3% of total PAHs,93.2% of Pb,85.8% of Cd,93.4% of Cr,83.2% of Ni and 97.3% of F simultaneously. After the 3rd washing,the residual PAHs mainly existed as very slowly desorbing fractions,which were in the form of well-aged,well-sequestered compounds; while the remaining Pb,Cd,Cr,Ni and F mainly existed as Fe–Mn oxide and residual fractions,which were always present in stable mineral forms or bound to non-labile soil fractions. Therefore,this combined cleanup strategy proved to be effective and environmentally friendly.     

Assessing the bioavailability of phenanthrene to soil microorganisms using the Tenax extraction method

The Tenax TA extraction technique followed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) determinations was used to assess the actually bioavailable fraction of phenanthrene (ABF-Phe) in three different soils freshly contaminated with this compound at levels of 10, 100, and 1,000 mg kg⁻¹. The results were related to the ecotoxic effect of phenanthrene on soil nitrifying bacteria. Nitrification potential measurements were applied as an ecotoxicity end point. A strong positive linear relationship (r ² = 0.95) was obtained between the content of the actually bioavailable phenanthrene fraction and the inhibition of nitrifying bacteria activity.     

Tenax萃取技术用于养殖底泥中有机氯农药的生物有效性研究

本研究以经济底栖生物菲律宾蛤仔和河蚬为受试生物,分别对不同浓度梯度的海洋和淡水底泥中9种代表性有机氯农药(OCPs)进行累积实验;同时采用Tenax连续萃取法研究2类底泥中OCPs的脱附动力学,提供简单、快速评价养殖底泥中OCPs生物有效性的方法,并将Tenax萃取结果与2种底栖生物的累积结果进行比较。结果表明,菲律宾蛤仔和河蚬对OCPs的生物-底泥富集因子(BSAF)分别为0.31~1.89和0.12~2.12,且底泥中有机碳标化的OCPs浓度与生物体内脂肪标化的OCPs浓度之间的相关性较差。Tenax脱附动力学的结果表明,2类底泥中OCPs的快速脱附比例(F_(rap))均在50%左右,其快速、慢速和极慢速脱附速率常数数量级分别为10~(~(-1))、10~(-2)和10~(-4)。Tenax快速脱附组分与2种底栖生物累积结果之间具有良好的相关性(r~2=0.75,P0.0001),表明Tenax萃取技术可以预测OCPs在底栖生物体内的累积量,并且该方法克服了大型底栖生物累积实验结果重复性较差等缺点。另外通过与基于热力学平衡的方法对比发现,Tenax萃取技术更适用于滤食性或可消化底泥的底栖生物对底泥污染物的富集;同时Tenax 6 h和24 h单点萃取技术可以作为简单快速评价底泥疏水性有机污染物(HOCs)生物有效性的替代方法,进一步为养殖领域的底泥污染状况以及相关水产品的质量安全和食用风险提供生物有效性评价依据。

烹调油烟中挥发性有机物的排放初探

挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)是大气臭氧和二次有机气溶胶污染的关键前体物,而烹调油烟排放的VOCs作为大气中VOCs的重要来源之一,对其排放浓度进行研究具有重要意义.从食用油的烧杯加热实验入手,简化模拟烹调油烟发生情景,采用Tenax吸附管采样,热脱附-气相色谱-质谱法(GC-MS)定量检测分析,以加热温度和油品作为变量,对花生油、葵花籽油、大豆油、调和油和橄榄油在不同温度下加热生成的油烟VOCs浓度进行了比较分析,并初步估算了在实验温度范围内典型食用油单位时间内油烟VOCs的排放强度.结果表明,5种典型食用油随着加热温度的升高,排放的油烟中VOCs的浓度也随之升高;而在同一温度下加热5种食用油,调和油产生的油烟中VOCs的浓度最低;对不同温度下典型食用油单位时间内油烟VOCs的排放强度进行拟合,结果为二项式最优,其单位时间内油烟VOCs的排放强度范围为1.6～11.1 mg.(kg.min)-1.     

基于Tenax脱附技术评价沉积物中不同碳质对菊酯类农药生物有效性的影响研究

本文选取泥炭、生物质炭、木炭和活性炭4种含碳材料,结合以经济底栖生物菲律宾蛤仔(Venerupis philippinarum)为受试生物的生物累积实验和Tenax连续萃取法,阐述不同碳质对沉积物中4种菊酯类农药生物有效性的影响,并将Tenax萃取结果与底栖生物的累积结果进行了相关分析。结果表明,碳质的添加导致沉积物中菊酯类农药的快速脱附组分(Frap)降低,极慢速脱附组分(Fv s)增大,生物有效性降低,且4种碳质对Frap的影响有所不同,然而因为菊酯类农药的理化性质,Frap的差异并不显著。Tenax 6 h和24 h的单点萃取组分与快速脱附组分相关性显著(P0.0001),基本可以代替完整的脱附动力学评价生物有效性,但是对于组成复杂,有机碳(OC)和黑炭(BC)含量高的沉积物进行研究评价时仍应注意由此产生的偏离。Tenax快速脱附组分与2种底栖生物累积结果之间具有显著的相关性(R2=0.38,P0.0001),表明在OC和BC含量不同的沉积物中,Tenax萃取技术也可以预测菊酯类农药在经济底栖生物菲律宾蛤仔体内的累积量,进而为沉积物中HOCs的环境质量和相关水产品的质量评估提供更为快捷、有效的参考依据。     

Kinetics of phenanthrene desorption from activated carbons to water

We determined the kinetics of phenanthrene desorption from three activated carbons to water using Tenax beads as an infinite sink for organic compounds in water. Desorption kinetic data very well fitted a biphasic kinetic model based on the presence of two different adsorption sites, viz. low-energy sites and high-energy sites. Rate constants for desorption to water from these two types of sites in the three activated carbons did not reveal a relation with activated carbon grain size. These rate constants were comparable to those for desorption of various organic compounds from hard carbon in various sediments.     

Tenax提取预测老化土壤中多环芳烃的生物有效性

利用聚2,6-二苯基对苯醚(poly(2,6-diphenyl-p-phenylene oxide),商品名Tenax-TA)提取来自9个老化农田土壤中的多环芳烃(PAHs),并应用Tenax-TA评价老化土壤中PAHs对赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia Fetida)的生物有效性.结果表明,多年老化土壤中污染物的主要组成为4环以上的PAHs;蚯蚓较易富集低环PAHs,对高环PAHs富集能力较差;400h Tenax连续提取实验得出快速、慢速和极慢速吸附速率常数数量级分别为:10-1~10-2、10-2~10-3、10-4~10-6;而快速、慢速和极慢速解吸比率分别为0.02~0.27、0.01~0.33和0.40~0.95.Tenax 6h单点提取PAHs的量与蚯蚓体内PAHs富集量显著相关,表明6h Tenax对多年老化土壤中PAHs的提取量可以用来作为其生物有效性的评价方法.     

Anthropogenic and naturally-produced organobrominated compounds in bluefin tuna from the Mediterranean Sea

In the present study, bioaccumulation potential of two pyrethroid insecticides, bifenthrin and permethrin, was measured using a Lumbriculus variegatus sediment bioaccumulation test. Two sediments differing in their physical characteristics and two different aging periods were tested. Desorption rates measured by Tenax extraction suggested that pyrethroids were bioavailable to L. variegatus, however bioavailability varied among chemicals, sediments and aging time, and was greater for permethrin than bifenthrin. The relatively low biota-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF) values resulted from the extensive biotransformation of pyrethroids by L. variegatus. Biotransformation capacity of L. variegatus to permethrin was further studied with a water-only exposure, and the percentage parent compound dropped to 36.0% after 14 d. These results indicated sediment-associated pyrethroids were bioavailable to L. variegatus, however bioaccumulation was limited because L. variegatus was capable of biotransforming the pyrethroids.
