长江口沉积物重金属赋存形态及风险特征

基于长江口沉积物8种重金属(As、Cd、Cr、Cu、Hg、Ni、Pb、Zn)总量与形态在丰、平、枯水期以及14个典型点位的分布特征,通过平衡分配法建立了长江口沉积物质量基准(SQGs),并以此评价长江口沉积物重金属生态风险,揭示重金属生态风险与其形态特征间的相关关系.结果表明,除Cd之外,长江口沉积物重金属以残渣态为主导形态,尤其是As、Cr、Hg,其残渣态含量均为90%以上.长江口As、Cd、Cr、Cu、Hg、Ni、Pb、Zn的沉积物质量基准分别为43.29、0.672、79.65、19.08、0.569、339.09、30.87、411.36μg·g~(-1).Cu的生态风险程度最高,对水生生物具有较大的毒性影响,应当引起重视.河口上游受到长江径流影响大,在丰水期风险较高,在平水期和枯水期则风险偏低;而下游受上海等城市排污影响较大,风险较高(尤其在平水期和枯水期).8种重金属的生态风险与赋存形态之间表现出3种不同的相关关系.     

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in atmosphere and soil of a production area in China: Levels and partitioning

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were measured in atmosphere and soil samples taken in winter and summer at a PBDE production area of Laizhou Bay in China. The concentrations of P11PBDE were 0.017–1.17 ng/m3 in gaseous phase, 0.5–161.1 ng/m3 in particulate phase, and 73–2629 ng/g dry weight in soil samples. The PBDE congener pattern in the gaseous phase di ered from that in the particulate phase, and the PBDE congener pattern in the particulate phase was similar with that in soil. This demonstrated that there was little di erence with atmospheric particle-soil transfer e ciency among PBDE congeners. In addition, there were seasonal variations in percentages on particle for lower brominated congeners. The BDE-28 was mostly in the gaseous phase in summer (88.3%), whereas the average proportion of BDE-28 in gaseous phase in winter was 38.9%. Higher brominated congeners (i.e., BDE-206, BDE- 207, BDE-208, and BDE-209) were bound to the atmospheric particulate phase, and their potentials for long-range migration were mainly a ected by the environmental behavior of atmospheric particles. Results indicated that PBDE congeners in summer were closer to gas-particle partition equilibrium than in winter. Temperature should be considered the main factor causing nonequilibrium in winter.     

太湖流域宜溧河酚类内分泌干扰物的空间分布及风险评价

以NP(nonylphenol,壬基酚)、4-t-OP(4-t-octylphenol,辛基酚)和BPA(bisphenol A,双酚A)为目标物质,研究酚类EDCs(内分泌干扰物)在太湖流域宜溧河地表水体和悬浮物中的空间分布特征及风险评价. 结果表明,太湖流域宜溧河地表水体中ρ(NP)、ρ(4-t-OP)和ρ(BPA)分别为156.2～434.0、11.8～19.4和89.8～353.8 ng/L,悬浮物中w(NP)、w(4-t-OP)和w(BPA)分别为520.0～9 818.2、52.0～454.5和39.0～2 454.5 ng/g. 流域内生活及工业污水排放可能是宜溧河流域水体中酚类EDCs的主要来源,ρ(NP)与ρ(NO₃-)呈显著正相关(R=0.860,P<0.01). 宜溧河水系中酚类EDCs在水相-悬浮物相的有机碳标准分配系数为4.14～6.41,表明悬浮颗粒物的吸附是水体中EDCs迁移的一个重要途径. 研究区域中NP、4-t-OP和BPA的入湖量分别为506、57.9和297 kg/a. 风险评价结果表明,该地区部分河段ρ(EDCs)具有潜在的生态风险.      

雾霾期北京大气中多环芳烃污染特征及暴露风险评估

雾霾对我国尤其是华北平原地区造成了极大的困扰,其发生常以颗粒物浓度急剧增长为特征,给人群健康带来了极大的风险。为进一步阐释雾霾的形成过程及其健康效应,在冬季雾霾期对北京城区大气颗粒态及气态中18种多环芳烃(PAHs)进行了连续测定,同步监测颗粒物、痕量气体污染物以及气象参数的变化,并对PAHs的浓度、组成、气粒分配等大气行为以及其与气象因素的作用机制进行了探讨。北京城区大气气相和颗粒物相中ΣPAHs浓度分别为585 ng·m~(-3)和705 ng·m~(-3)。雾霾发生时,PM_(2.5)浓度升高了3.6倍,PAHs浓度升高了2.6倍,18种PAHs同系物的浓度均随PM_(2.5)的浓度线性增加,其线性相关性受PAHs来源以及氧化活性的影响;夜间较重质量数的PAHs相对比例增加,主要受日间交通源以及夜间燃烧源贡献强度影响。受颗粒物组成以及湿度的影响,雾霾天气下PAHs颗粒相分配率降低。进一步评估了北京城区人群的PAHs吸入健康效应,冬季雾霾频繁发生下其对人群癌症风险为6.2×10~(-5)。     

太湖和辽河沉积物重金属质量基准及生态风险评估

以太湖、辽河的表层沉积物为研究对象,运用相平衡分配法（EqP）初步探讨了两流域沉积物中4种重金属（Cd,Cu,Pb,Zn）的沉积物质量基准（C_SQC）推荐值,并对两流域沉积物中的重金属进行了生态风险评估. 根据美国国家环境保护局（US EPA）基于水生生物对重金属的最终慢性毒理水平的淡水水质基准,制定了太湖及辽河4种重金属（Cd,Cu,Pb和Zn）的沉积物质量基准推荐值分别为6.42,55.3,20.6和201.5 mg/kg及5.42,52.8,18.9和177.7 mg/kg. 通过与不同国家及地区制定的C_SQC值进行比较,推算出4种重金属的C_SQC值大都接近所有数据的中间值. 从沉积物固相和间隙水相2个不同的角度对沉积物中重金属进行的生态风险评估表明,两流域的大部分区域同步可提取重金属（SEM）与酸可挥发性硫化物（AVS）含量的差值大于0,而_i［C_Ti］/［C_SQC,i］值与_i［C_IW,i］/［CCC_i］值均大于1,说明在整体上两流域沉积物中的重金属存一定的生态风险. 由于未考虑各金属元素之间的拮抗或协同等作用以及底栖生物敏感性的问题,所使用的生态风险方法在评价生态风险方面可能会相对有所偏差.

干活性污泥吸附水中染料的试验研究

以城市污水处理厂干活性污泥为吸附剂对染料直接深棕M、酸性媒介棕RH进行了吸附研究,结果表明,吸附过程能很好地用二级速率表达式表示,同时也可用Lagergren一级速率方程描述。其一级吸附速率常数k1分别为0.0204min-1和0.0068min-1,二级吸附速率常数k2分别为0.00592和0.00589gmg-1min-1。两者的吸附特性不同,其吸附等温线前者符合Freundlich方程,后者既符合Freundlich方程也符合Langmuir方程。吸附平衡时间、去除率亦不同,前者明显大于后者,达到吸附平衡的时间分别为120min和240min。两种染料的正辛醇/水分配系数logP计算数值分别为4.65和-0.22,这一顺序与两种染料在干污泥上的吸附行为相符。     

Effects of ozone on inter- and intra-species competition and photosynthesis in mesocosms of Lolium perenne and Trifolium repens

Trifolium repens and Lolium perenne were exposed as both monocultures and two-species mixtures to an episodic rural ozone regime in large, well-watered containers within solardomes for 12 weeks. There were reductions in biomass for T. repens, but not L. perenne, and the proportion of T. repens decreased in ozone-exposed mixtures compared to the control. In addition, leaf biomass of T. repens was maintained at the expense of biomass partitioning to the stolons. The decreased growth corresponded with decreased photosynthetic capacity for T. repens, however, by the end of the exposure there was also decreased photosynthetic capacity of L. perenne, a species previously considered insensitive to ozone. The observed decreases in photosynthetic efficiency and capacity in elevated ozone indicate that the ability of such ubiquitous vegetation to act as a sink for atmospheric carbon may be reduced in future climates.     

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination of surface sediments and oysters from the inter-tidal areas of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Surface sediment and oyster samples from the inter-tidal areas of Dar es Salaam were analyzed for 23 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) including the 16 compounds prioritized by US-EPA using GC/MS. The total concentration of PAHs in the sediment ranged from 78 to 25,000 ng/g dry weight, while oyster concentrations ranged from 170 to 650 ng/g dry weight. Hazards due to sediment contamination were assessed using Equilibrium Partitioning Sediment Benchmarks and Threshold Effect Levels. Diagnostic indices and principle component analysis were used to identify possible sources. Interestingly, no correlation between sediment and oyster concentrations at the same sites was found. This is supported by completely different contamination patterns, suggesting different sources for both matrices. Hazard assessment revealed possible effects at six out of eight sites on the benthic communities and oyster populations. The contribution of PAH intake via oyster consumption to carcinogenic risks in humans seems to be low.
