Allometric scaling and accidents at work

Allometry is the knowledge concerning relations between the features of some beings, like animals, or cities. For example, the daily energy rate is proportional to a mass of mammals rise of 3/4. This way of thinking has spread quickly from biology to many areas of research concerned with sociotechnical systems. It was revealed that the number of innovations, patents or heavy crimes rises as social interaction increases in a bigger city, while other urban indexes such as suicides decrease with social interaction. Enterprise is also a sociotechnical system, where social interaction and accidents at work take place. Therefore, do these interactions increase the number of accidents at work or, on the contrary, are they reduction-driving components? This article tries to catch such links and assess the allometric exponent between the number of accidents at work and the number of employees in an enterprise.

基于行为安全理论的化工事故统计及分析

行为安全理论是事故分析和预防的理论和方法,应用基于行为安全理论的事故致因“2-4”模型对10起化工事故的直接、间接、根本、根源原因进行分析。结果表明:该模型是化工事故分析的有效方法。10起事故的直接原因主要为一线员工在涉及高温加热工艺、带压设备、有毒有害环境和动火作业中的违规违章操作,管理人员未建立或运行安全管理体系等不安全动作及不安全物态,且不安全物态与管理人员不安全行为有关;间接原因是一线员工缺乏岗位安全操作等知识,管理人员缺乏安全管理、技术等知识,导致其安全意识薄弱,养成不良的安全习惯;根本原因是组织安全教育等管理程序缺失和执行不力;根源原因是组织成员对安全的重要度等安全文化元素缺乏理解。     

吉林市城区土地利用对地下水污染空间分布的影响

利用吉林市城区91眼监测井2013年的地下水水质监测数据,采用改进内梅罗污染指数法求取地下水污染指数,同时考虑第二松花江两岸地下水污染的非连续性,采用Kriging方法进行分区插值,然后叠加融合得出城区地下水污染指数空间分布图.结合吉林市城区土地利用类型,采用CM模型和SLM模型提取监测井不同半径范围内的土地利用类型,利用多元回归分析方法确定监测井最可能受污染的范围,最后利用Kendall 秩次相关检验法和回归分析方法分析城区土地利用类型对地下水污染空间分布的影响.研究结果表明,吉林市城区地下水污染呈现出明显的空间分布特征;城区地下水受到不同程度的污染,其中江北片区和中心片区较为严重;在考虑地下水流动的情况下,监测井最可能受污染的范围为沿地下水流向方向500m;吉林市城区土地利用类型对地下水污染空间分布有较大影响,其中传统工业用地、居民和商业用地、城市交通设施用地为主要因素,其Kendall 秩次相关检验τ值分别为0.248、0.174、0.143;在各研究片区,该3种土地利用类型和地下水污染空间分布也存在较好的相关性.     

Statistical interpolation model for the description of ground pollution due to the TCDD produced in the 1976 chemical accident at seveso in the heavily contaminated zone “A”;

The influence of NTA on chromium genetic activity was studied in the D7 strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. At low dose (subgenotoxic) of sodium chromate (CrVI) (5mM), NTA increased the point mutation while at higher dose (25 mM) of chromate in the presence of NTA a decrease of point reverse mutation was observed. Probably NTA affected either the uptake of Cr(VI) favouring the intracellular reduction to Cr(III), or the recombinational repair of DNA breaks induced by chromate oxiding activity.

An increase of point (reverse) mutation was obtained in the experiments with NTA and chromium chloride, suggesting the hypothesis that NTA might interact with Cr(III) forming NTA‐Cr(III) complexes able to permeate cellular membranes and bind to DNA. In addition NTA genetic inactivity was confirmed.     

An approach to calculating allowable watershed pollutant loads

To improve the management of discharge pollutants loads in the reservoirs’ watershed, an approach of the allowable pollutants loads calculation and its allocation, based on the water environment model, was proposed. Establishment of the approach framework was described at first. Under the guidance of this framework, two major steps were as follows: modeling and scenario analysis were involved and should be applied to support the decision of discharge loads management; Environmental Fluid Dynamic Code (EFDC) model was selected as the kernel model in this framework. In modeling step, spatial discretization for establishing cell map in model, data preprocessing, parameter calibration and uncertainty analysis (which is considered as the significantly relevant factor of the margin of safety (MOS)), were conducted. As a result of the research, the model-based approach presented as a combination of estimation and precise calculation, which contributed to scenario analysis step. Some integrated modules, such as scenario simulation, result analysis and plan optimization were implemented as cycles in the scenario analysis. Finally, allowable pollutant loads under various conditions were calculated. The Chaihe Reservoir in Liaoning Province, China was used as a case study for an application of the approach described above. Results of the Chaihe reservoir water quality simulation, show good agreement with field data and demonstrated that the approach used in the present study provide an efficient and appropriate methodology for pollutant load allocation.     

沱江流域总氮面源污染负荷时空演变

根据四川省沱江流域水环境受总氮（TN）面源严重污染的现状,采用排污系数法估算2007~2017年该流域来自各面源污染源的TN污染负荷,并利用空间重心统计法和空间分析技术揭示沱江流域TN污染负荷时空分布特征及转移趋势,以期为相关部门精准防控和预警沱江流域面源污染提供理论依据.结果表明,2007~2017年畜禽养殖污染源对整个流域的TN污染负荷贡献率每年均在45%以上,是TN面源污染的主要污染源.农村生活和农村生活垃圾污染源的贡献率呈逐年减少趋势,农田固废和农田径流污染源的贡献率则呈增加趋势.TN总污染负荷总体呈下降趋势,2010年污染负荷最大,达到5.7×10⁴ t,2017年最小,为4.69×10⁴ t.污染负荷在空间上的异质性变化及降雨径流的不均匀分布驱使畜禽养殖、农田固废类和农田径流污染源的TN污染负荷重心由西北向东南方向移动,流域东南部是畜禽养殖、农田固废类和农田径流TN污染的重点防控区域.东南部各区县的农业人口大量向城市人口转化,进而驱动农村生活和农村生活垃圾污染源的TN污染负荷重心由东南向西北方向转移,其转移范围高达66.35 km²,由此确定的最小边界圆是污染源污染负荷变化的重点识别区域,沱江流域西北部则是农村生活和农村生活垃圾TN污染的重点防控区域.本研究拓展了环境科学领域对流域污染负荷时空演变的探究方法,对于改善水环境质量,促进流域经济可持续发展具有重要意义.
