Three-dimensional biogenic C-doped Bi2MoO6/In2O3-ZnO Z-scheme heterojunctions derived from a layered precursor

Novel 3D biogenic C-doped Bi_2 MoO_6/In_2O_3-ZnO Z-scheme heterojunctions were synthesized for the first time, using cotton fiber as template. The as-prepared samples showed excellent adsorption and photodegradation performance toward the hazardous antibiotic doxycycline under simulated sunlight irradiation. The morphology, phase composition and in situ carbon doping could be precisely controlled by adjusting processing parameters. The carbon doping in Bi_2 MoO_6/In_2O_3-ZnO was derived from the cotton template, and the carbon content could be varied in the range 0.9–4.4 wt.% via controlling the heat treatment temperature. The sample with Bi_2 MoO_6/In_2O_3-ZnO molar ratio of 1:2 and carbon content of1.1 wt.% exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity toward doxycycline degradation,which was 3.6 and 4.3 times higher than those of pure Bi_2 MoO_6 and Zn In Al-CLDH(calcined layered double hydroxides), respectively. It is believed that the Z-scheme heterojunction with C-doping, the 3D hierarchically micro–meso–macro porous structure, as well as the high adsorption capacity, contributed significantly to the enhanced photocatalytic activity.     

Driving anger among motor vehicle drivers in China: A cross-sectional survey

Objective: Driving anger is a common emotion while driving and has been associated with traffic crashes. This study aimed to investigate situations that increase driving anger among Chinese drivers.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 3,101 drivers in southern China. The translated version of the 33-item Driving Anger Scale (DAS) was used to measure driving anger. Data were collected by face-to-face interviews between June 2016 and September 2016.

Results: Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the fit of the original 6-factor model (discourtesy, traffic obstacles, hostile gestures, slow driving, illegal driving, and police presence) was satisfactory, after removing 2 items and allowing 5 error pairs to covary. The model showed satisfactory fit: goodness of fit index (GFI) = 0.90, incremental fit index (IFI) = 0.90, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.06, 90% confidence interval (CI) = 0.061–0.064. Driving anger among Chinese drivers was lower than that in some Western countries. Compared to older and experienced drivers, younger and new drivers were more likely to report driving anger. There was no difference in total reported driving anger between males and females. Additionally, the higher the driver’s anger level was, the more likely he or she was to have had a traffic crash.

Conclusion: Driving anger is a common emotion among Chinese drivers and has a strong correlation with aggressive driving behavior and traffic crashes.     

水环境模拟中多孔介质场空间变异性研究方法述评

阐述了研究多孔介质空间变异性的经典统计法、地质统计学方法以及新兴的分形方法.经典统计方法由于不考虑研究对象的空间相关性,已经不能对这种变异性做出客观的分析;地质统计学方法很好地克服了经典统计学的缺点,是目前应用最多的一种方法;分形的研究对象为无规则和具有自相似性的体系,这一特性决定了它研究这种变异性有着独特的优点.最后对多孔介质空间变异性研究的趋势进行了展望.

盐池封育草场土壤种子库特征及其与植被的关系

封育是退化草场恢复的重要措施之一,封育的效果在一定程度上取决于土壤中种子库的状况。以毛乌素沙地西南缘宁夏盐池县的退化草场为研究对象,采用相似性分析和排序方法对封育和未封育草场土壤种子库的特征及其与地上植被间关系进行了研究,结果表明无论封育区还是未封育区,土壤种子库中的种子主要分布于0～5cm的土层,6～15cm土层的种子数很少;封育区土壤种子库的物种丰富度大于未封育区,物种多样性则表现为H值较大,而D值较小,总体上看封育措施可以提高地上植被和土壤中种子的种类和数量,一些一年生植物、中生植物和盐生植物开始出现在地面或土壤种子库中。地上植被和土壤种子库间的相似性分析结果则表明相同措施同一土层间种子库中等相似,而不同土层间还是存在着一些差异。由于封育措施导致了植被样方的相似性较低,然而土壤种子库间的相似性仍然较高,两者间是否存在着一定程度的滞后效应有待于进一步研究。

大亚湾海产中重金属的健康风险与海产消费建议

为了解大亚湾常见野生海产品中重金属的含量及其摄食的健康风险,本文分析了大亚湾10种野生海产品可食用部分中7种重金属(As、Cd、Cr、Cu、Pb、Ni、Zn)含量,并采用单因子污染指数(P_i)、综合污染指数(P_c)方法评价其污染程度,进一步采用美国环保署推荐的健康风险评估模型评估其摄食的健康风险.结果表明,7种重金属含量分别为4.28×10~(-2)—1.31×10~(-1)、8.58×10~(-5)—2.19×10~(-2)、2.69×10~(-3)—9.54×10~(-3)、1.92×10~(-2)—3.05×10~(-1)、ND—2.14×10~(-2)、8.40×10~(-4)—2.75×10~(-1)、1.92×10~(-1)—6.13×10~(-1) mg·kg~(-1)(湿重).与国内外其它地区相比,处于相对较低水平;与历史数据相比,呈现降低趋势.P_i及P_c结果表明,金钱鱼、平鲷、口虾蛄和棒锥螺中As处于轻度污染水平,其余重金属均处于无污染水平.风险评估结果表明,大亚湾海产品可食用部分中总砷的摄食致癌风险较高,儿童/青少年的致癌风险高于成人1.5倍.金钱鱼、口虾蛄、杜氏枪乌贼、近缘新对虾、蟹和棒锥螺的日均消费量(成人57.4 g·d~(-1),儿童/青少年42.4 g·d~(-1))均高于消费建议中给出的相应安全阈值,建议消费者适当控制这些海产品的日食用量和月食用餐数.As在海产品中较高的检出,需予以进一步关注.     

基于DMSP-OLS夜间灯光数据的长江经济带城镇体系空间格局演变（1992～2013）

研究长江经济带城镇体系空间格局演变，对于透视长江经济带城镇体系空间格局演变特征和规律以及促进长江经济带城镇体系空间格局优化发展有着重要意义。利用多时相同期Landsat卫星数据以及运用聚类分析方法对长江经济带夜间灯光数据进行校正，并采用其他辅助数据法对比分析获取城镇建成区面积的阈值，在此阈值基础之上选取景观总面积、总斑块数量和聚集度指数等总共8个典型景观格局指标, 继而使用FRAG-STATS 4.2 软件对1992~2013年间长江经济带城镇发展的空间格局变化进行计算分析。研究结果表明：(1）1992~2013年间，长江经济带城镇化快速扩展，城镇建成区面积增加了9.68倍，斑块数量增加了2.39倍，斑块密度也得到较大的增加，反映出长江经济带城镇数量不断增加和城镇建成区面积不断扩大；（2）景观斑块形状复杂度逐渐上升，中小城市不断壮大，同时出现了较多的新兴小城镇，总边界长度和平均边界密度的年均增长速度分别为21.56%和21.58%，体现了长江经济带城镇间聚集度越来越高，相互影响也越来越大；(3）最大斑块指数和聚集度指数两个指标在整体上呈现出逐年下降的态势，但是景观总面积、总斑块数量和斑块密度等8个指标在演变过程中均存在一定的波动和无序化，反映出长江经济带在城镇化过程中呈现出不规则和无序化的特征。     

以聚己内酯作为生物反硝化固体碳源的研究

为解决水体因低碳氮比而导致脱氮效率差的问题,将颗粒聚己内酯(PCL)重新塑形为阶梯环状,研究其作为反硝化过程的生物膜载体与固相碳源的反硝化性能。结果表明,在静态实验中,平均反硝化速率为8.57 mg NO3-N/(L·h);反硝化过程为零级反应。连续填充床实验中,超过90%的硝酸盐可被去除,出水NO2-N质量浓度低于0.20 mg/L;出水NH3-N质量浓度略有上升;出水溶解性有机碳(DOC)先上升后降低至1 mg/L左右。电子扫描显微镜扫描显示,PCL阶梯环反应表面空隙率较高,表面生物膜以杆菌为主,反应后被明显腐蚀;液相色谱检测显示PCL阶梯环分子量反应前后略有下降,其结构未受到破坏;表明该材料适合作为反硝化反应的碳源的同时,又可以作为载体供微生物附着生长。     

变压器油池火燃烧规律的实验研究*

为对变压器油池火灾进行准确有效的灭火，研究不同尺寸和不同厚度下变压器油的火灾动力学特征和基本燃烧特性，具体分析变压器油的燃烧过程和变压器油燃烧速率、火焰温度以及辐射热流随油池直径以及厚度的变化规律。结果表明:整个油品的燃烧过程分为预热燃烧阶段、稳定燃烧阶段和火焰熄灭阶段。对于厚度大于10 mm的油池燃烧，稳定阶段的燃烧速率与油层厚度无关，稳定阶段的燃烧速率随着油池直径的增加而增加。同时，变压器油火灾连续火焰区温度接近750 ℃。对于稳定燃烧阶段下的变压器油燃烧，基于辐射通量可得出在燃烧过程中，辐射热量占总燃烧热的占比约为1/3。研究结果可丰富变压器油燃烧的基础数据，为变压器火灾的灭火提供参考。
