Fast increasing of surface ozone concentrations in Pearl River Delta characterized by a regional air quality monitoring network during 2006-2011

Based on the observation by a Regional Air Quality Monitoring Network including 16 monitoring stations, temporal and spatial variations of ozone(O3), NO2and total oxidant(Ox) were analyzed by both linear regression and cluster analysis. A fast increase of regional O3concentrations of 0.86 ppbV/yr was found for the annual averaged values from 2006 to 2011 in Guangdong, China. Such fast O3increase is accompanied by a correspondingly fast NOx reduction as indicated by a fast NO2 reduction rate of 0.61 ppbV/yr. Based on a cluster analysis, the monitoring stations were classified into two major categories – rural stations(non-urban) and suburban/urban stations. The O3concentrations at rural stations were relatively conserved while those at suburban/urban stations showed a fast increase rate of 2.0 ppbV/yr accompanied by a NO2 reduction rate of 1.2 ppbV/yr. Moreover, a rapid increase of the averaged O3 concentrations in springtime(13%/yr referred to 2006 level) was observed, which may result from the increase of solar duration, reduction of precipitation in Guangdong and transport from Eastern Central China. Application of smog production algorithm showed that the photochemical O3production is mainly volatile organic compounds(VOC)-controlled. However, the photochemical O3production is sensitive to both NOx and VOC for O3pollution episode. Accordingly, it is expected that a combined NOx and VOC reduction will be helpful for the reduction of the O3 pollution episodes in Pearl River Delta while stringent VOC emission control is in general required for the regional O3 pollution control.

天目湖沙河水库尿素含量及其时空分布特征分析

为探索尿素在淡水生态系统中的作用,于2013年3月—2014年2月调查了江苏溧阳天目湖沙河水库及中田河入库河口中,尿素氮和不同形态氮素的含量和分布特征.结果表明,沙河水库中尿素普遍存在,全库年平均尿素氮浓度为0.016 mg·L-1(0.007—0.029 mg·L-1);河、库尿素氮含量在不同月份波动较大,施肥期的2月、6月、11月含量较高,而在非施肥期含量较低,且河、库含量更加接近;沙河水库尿素氮的空间分布随季节变化而变化,一般在下游旅游集中区和上游靠近农业区出现尿素氮含量高值.此外,沙河水库溶解性氮以无机氮库为主,有机氮占29.09%,硝态氮是库体的主要氮形态;其中尿素氮占总氮、溶解性总氮、溶解性有机氮和生物可利用氮的年平均百分比分别为1.80%、2.21%、8.31%、3.54%.相关分析表明,沙河水库尿素含量与溶解氧含量呈显著负相关,与溶解性有机氮呈显著正相关.研究表明,天目湖沙河水库尿素含量的时空变化主要受外源输入(人类活动)的影响,其时间变化规律与农业活动密切相关,空间分布差异主要受污染源(河道入库口、农业、旅游业和养殖业)分布及其活动的影响.     

考虑前2阶模态组合的拉索非线性参数共振研究

针对水平拉索的非线性参数共振问题,首先将桥面简化为集中质量块,建立拉索在桥面谐波位移激励下的非线性微分方程,并考虑拉索前2阶模态组合的影响,进而推导索-桥耦合的无量纲非线性运动方程组,最后以实际斜拉桥工程的拉索为例,对拉索发生参数共振的响应进行数值模拟分析。研究表明:当桥面质量块无量纲固有频率Ω3与拉索1阶无量纲固有频率Ω1M之比为2∶1时,拉索的前2阶模态位移和质量块均出现"拍"振现象,且以第1阶模态为主振动模态;而当桥面质量块无量纲固有频率Ω3与拉索2阶无量纲固有频率Ω2M之比为2∶1时,仅有第2阶模态位移和质量块出现"拍"振现象,拉索以第2阶模态为主模态振动,此时第1阶模态位移未出现"拍"振现象;考虑前2阶模态组合时,当质量块的激励频率与系统的固有频率满足参数共振频比关系2∶1时,系统将发生大幅"拍"振现象,且第1阶主模态的位移响应要远大于第2阶主模态的位移响应。     

Water chemistry controlled aggregation and photo-transformation of silver nanoparticles in environmental waters

The inevitable release of engineered silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into aquatic environments has drawn great concerns about its environmental toxicity and safety. Although aggregation and transformation play crucial roles in the transport and toxicity of AgNPs, how the water chemistry of environmental waters influences the aggregation and transformation of engineered AgNPs is still not well understood. In this study, the aggregation of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) coated AgNPs was investigated in eight typical environmental water samples (with different ionic strengths, hardness, and dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentrations) by using UV–visible spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering. Raman spectroscopy was applied to probe the interaction of DOM with the surface of AgNPs. Further, the photo-transformation and morphology changes of AgNPs in environmental waters were studied by UV–visible spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and transmission electron microscopy. The results suggested that both electrolytes (especially Ca^2 + and Mg^2 +) and DOM in the surface waters are key parameters for AgNP aggregation, and sunlight could accelerate the morphology change, aggregation, and further sedimentation of AgNPs. This water chemistry controlled aggregation and photo-transformation should have significant environmental impacts on the transport and toxicity of AgNPs in the aquatic environments.     

厌氧系统中碱处理对污泥减量的影响

碱解预处理污泥和原污泥按一定比例进行混合后,投入厌氧反应器中进行消化,研究其对污泥减量化的影响。结果表明,该处理既可以提高污泥减量率,又能改善污泥厌氧消化性能,提高污泥产气量。当碱处理污泥和原污泥混合比为1∶3时,在混合初期由于稀释作用和水解中和作用,溶液的pH能迅速恢复到中性。SS减少48%,较对照组提高了10%;SCOD减少约80%,较对照组提高20%,而空白对照组因未发生溶胞作用,各参数值均处于较低水平,降解率也维持在较低水平。
