Impact of carbon,oxygen and sulfur content of microscale zerovalent iron particles on its reactivity towards chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons

Zerovalent iron (ZVI) abiotically degrades several chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) via reductive dechlorination, which offers perspectives for in situ groundwater remediation applications. The difference in reactivity between ZVI particles is often linked with their specific surface area. However, other parameters may influence the reactivity as well. Earlier, we reported for a set of microscale zerovalent iron (mZVI) particles the disappearance kinetic of different CAHs which were collected under consistent experimental conditions. In the present study, these kinetic data were correlated with the carbon, oxygen and sulfur content of mZVI particles. It was confirmed that not only the specific surface area affects the disappearance kinetic of CAHs, but also the chemical composition of the mZVI particles. The chemical composition, in addition, influences CAHs removal mechanism inducing sorption onto mZVI particles instead of dechlorination. Generally, high disappearance kinetic of CAHs was observed for particles containing less oxygen. A high carbon content, on the other hand, induced nonreactive sorption of the contaminants on the mZVI particles. To obtain efficient remediation of CAHs by mZVI particles, this study suggested that the carbon and oxygen content should not exceed 0.5% and 1% respectively. Finally, the efficiency of the mZVI particles may be improved to some extent by enriching them with sulfur. However, the impact of sulfur content on the reactivity of mZVI particles is less pronounced than that of the carbon and oxygen content.     

Sorption of Pesticides on Kaolinite and Montmorillonite as a Function of Hydrophilicity

Pesticides and other organic species are adsorbed by soil via different mechanisms, with bond strengths that depend on the properties of both the soil and the pesticide. Since the clay fraction in soil is a preferential sorbent for organic matter, reference kaolinite and montmorillonite are useful models for studying the mechanism and the strength of sorption. This paper presents the results of batch experiments to investigate the interactions of kaolinite KGa-1 and montmorillonite SWy-1 with the following pesticides and organic species resulting from the natural degradation of pesticides in the environment: atrazine (1-chloro-3-ethylamino-5-isopropylamino-2,4,6-triazine), simazine (1-chloro-3,5-bisethylamino-2,4,6-triazine), diuron [1,1-dimethyl-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)urea], aniline, 4-chlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol. Each of these chemicals has different hydrophilicity. Systems containing 2.0 g of clay were put in contact with 100.0 mL of solutions of the pesticides at known concentration ranging from 1.0 to 5.0 mg/L, and the amount of solute adsorbed was evaluated through RP-HPLC analysis of the pesticide still present in the aqueous suspension. To test for electrostatic interactions between the clay surface and the pesticides, potentiometric titration was used to determine the permanent surface charge of clays. Experiments were performed at different pH values. The results indicate that, for the chemicals studied, neutral molecules are preferentially retained relative to ionized ones, and that montmorillonite is a more effective sorbent than kaolinite.     

来源于土壤和灌溉水的砷在水稻根表及其体内的富集特性

采用土壤-玻璃珠联合培养的方式,选择2个氧化能力不同的水稻品种YY-1、94D-64(品系)和采自浙江富阳的土壤(砷的本底值为13.8 mg·kg-1),并设灌溉清水和含砷水2个处理(即在分蘖期、拔节期、孕穗期、开花期和灌浆期5个生育阶段灌溉含砷污水,随灌溉水进入土壤中砷的浓度为3.2mg·kg-1),研究了砷在土壤-根表铁氧化物-水稻系统中的累积规律以及土壤和灌溉水对水稻秸秆和籽粒富集砷的贡献程度.结果表明,水稻的秸秆生物量及其籽粒产量并没有受到不同来源砷的显著影响;灌溉含砷水处理的两品系水稻根表铁氧化物沉积的数量(YY-1∶196 g·kg-1,94D-64∶75.8 g·kg-1)高于对照(YY-1∶175g·kg-1,94D-64∶60.1 g·kg-1),但差异不显著.然而,在水稻5个不同的生育期灌溉含砷水均显著增加了砷在其根表及其体内不同部位的富集(94D-64籽粒中砷含量除外).没有灌溉含砷水的对照其秸秆和籽粒中累积的砷来源于土壤,而砷处理的水稻其秸秆和籽粒中富集的砷则来源于土壤和灌溉的含砷水.土壤对YY-1和94D-64秸秆中富集砷的贡献率分别为76.5%和71.O%,灌溉水的贡献率分别为23.5%和29.0%,2个水稻品系之间没有明显差异.YY-1籽粒中的砷66.4%来源于土壤,33.6%来源于含砷灌溉水,灌溉水对该品系籽粒中砷的富集贡献率较高.另一品系94D-64籽粒中砷84.8%来源于土壤,15.2%由灌溉水贡献,灌溉水对此品系籽粒累积砷的贡献率较低.来源于土壤和灌溉水的砷在水稻籽粒中的富集没有超出我国的国家食品卫生标准(0.7 mg·kg-1).     

Second organic aerosol formation from the ozonolysis of -pinene in the presence of dry submicron ammonium sulfate aerosol

An indoor chamber facility is described for investigation of atmospheric aerosol chemistry. Two sets of α-pinene ozonolysisexperiments were conducted in the presence of dry ammonium sulfate seed particle: ozone limited experiments and α-pinene limitedexperiments. The concentration of gas phase and particle phase species was monitored continuously by on-line instruments andrecorded automatically by data sampling system. The evolution of size distribution was measured by a scanning mobility particlesizer (SMPS), and α-pinene consumed was measured using GC-FID. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) produced for seed-free systemis 100% organic in content, resulting from a sufficient supersaturation of low volatility organics to produce homogeneous nucleationfollowed by condensation to the aerosol. Secondary organic aerosol produced in seeded system is a mixture of organic and inorganicconstituents, initially forms via condensation onto the inorganic particles, and subsequent growth occurs via absorption into the organicsurface coating the inorganic core. Although the formation process and the size distribution for seed-free system and seeded system isdifferent, the ultimate mass of SOA formed is equal, and SOA yield for the two system located in the same regression line when usingone-product model, suggesting that the presence of dry ammonium sulfate seed has no measurable effect on the total aerosol yield, and the dry seed particle acts solely as a site upon which organic deposition occurs.

微生物法液相氧化SO2

通过对酸性水溶液、含Fe³⁺水溶液、含Fe²⁺水溶液、细菌菌液和细菌培养基水溶液脱除二氧化硫的实验,探讨了微生物液相氧化二氧化硫的途径.以液相中SO₄^2-浓度考察了Fe³⁺浓度、Fe²⁺浓度、进口SO₂浓度以及温度对脱硫成酸的影响.微生物脱硫有2种机制:一是直接氧化作用,即氧化亚铁硫杆菌(Thiobacillus ferrooxidans)将S(IV)氧化成S(VI);二是间接催化氧化,氧化亚铁硫杆菌在酸性条件下具有快速氧化Fe²⁺成Fe³⁺,增强Fe³⁺对SO₂的液相催化氧化能力,研究表明微生物脱硫以间接催化氧化为主.在浓度0～1.2g/L之间,Fe³⁺和Fe²⁺浓度越高,脱硫效果越好,氧化亚铁硫杆菌表现出对Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺体系氧化SO₂的强化效果.入口SO₂浓度越高,细菌脱硫效率越低,但液相中SO₄^2-浓度随进口SO₂浓度增加变化不大.温度对微生物脱硫影响较大,最佳脱硫温度为30～40℃.

水源更换对给水管网水质的影响研究

为了研究水源更换对给水管网水质的影响,对北方A市水源更换过程中管网水质理化指标进行了监测分析.通过33 h的监测发现,由于水源水质不同造成管网水质化学不稳定,管网水水质部分指标发生了明显的下降,pH从7.54降到7.18,碱度从188　mg·L^-1降到117 　mg·L^-1,氯化物从310 　mg·L^-1降到132 　mg·L^-1（以Cl^-计）,电导率从0.176　S·m^-1降到0.087 　S·m^-1,钙离子和镁离子略有下降分别为15 　mg·L^-1和11 　mg·L^-1,这些都是由于滦河水质与黄河水质不同造成的;余氯在换水过程中发生了较复杂的变化,主要是由于水源更换造成耗氯量增加以及夜间用水量少造成管网水输配时间长引起的;pH、碱度、余氯的变化使得管网水中铁的含量增加,最高达到0.4 　mg·L^-1,超出饮用水标准规定的0.3 　mg·L^-1.通过分析水源更换过程中水质的变化,提出了控制管网水质稳定的方法主要有提高pH、增加碱度、投加缓蚀剂和严格保证出厂水及管网水水质指标特别是余氯等.
