Arsenic residue in residential area after cleanup of pesticide illegal dumping sources in Thanh Hoa province,Central Vietnam

In Vietnam, Nicotex's site is perhaps the most infamous case of illegal disposal of toxic pesticides near residential areas. In 2013, affected villagers discovered illegal burials of around 1,000 tons of expired pesticides in the Nicotex factory. Organic pesticides were detected in illegal burial areas (IBAs) around 60 times greater than acceptable levels, but no attention was paid to contamination of metals, metalloids, and other classes of organic contaminants, which could be co-contaminants in pesticide formulation. This study assessed the contaminants remaining in the IBAs and surrounding residential areas two years after the source removal conducted in 2014. Additionally, a preliminary health risk assessment from residual contaminants was performed. Nine classes of chemicals including parental pesticides, inorganic and organic degradation byproducts, and metals and metalloids, comprising 123 chemicals were quantified in soil, sediment, and water samples from Nicotex and surrounding residential areas. Although concentrations of organic pesticides were below acceptable levels, arsenic contamination in the soil in a Nicotex IBA named NCT5 and Nap village (NV) exceeded the acceptable level. The enrichment factor and log-probability plot indicate that arsenic enrichment at NV is not from natural sources but is associated with arsenic contamination in NCT5. Arsenic may be a co-contaminant in pesticide manufacturing or an arsenical pesticide, such as monosodium methanearsonate. Arsenic found in NV was toxic arsenate for which the preliminary risk assessment yielded an unacceptable excess carcinogenic risk (1 × 10^?4). While all attention was paid to investigate and treat contamination of organic pesticides, it turns out that arsenic is the major existing threat which poses an unacceptable cancer risk in good agreement with the high cancer rate claimed by villagers near Nicotex. This justifies the need for further investigation of the extent of the arsenic contamination and restoration of the contaminated land.

停留时间对滴滴涕农药热处理特性的影响研究

利用高温管式炉研究停留时间对滴滴涕农药热处理特性的影响。结果表明,600℃时ηDDT在15 min内迅速增长,在15 min后稳定在85%上下;900℃时,当停留时间≥15 min,ηDDT≥99%;1 200℃时,各时段的ηDDT≥99.9%。在滴滴涕农药残渣中,DDTs在600℃和900℃时的配比随停留时间的增加变化甚微,在1 200℃时,p,p’-DDD、DDT和o,p’-DDT分别占DDTs总量的比例随时间增加明显降低,p,p’-DDE则大幅增加。在尾气中,DDTs在600℃时的配比随停留时间的增加无明显变化,DDT为主要尾气残留物质,900℃时DDTs在尾气中配比变化混乱,1 200℃时,p,p’-DDE的比例随停留时间的增长迅速增加,并成为尾气中的主要DDTs残留物质。     

甲胺磷在水-气界面挥发动力学研究

研究了挥发时间、温度和气流量对农药甲胺磷在水-气界面挥发行为的影响.挥发量采用气相色谱法检测,利用保留值定性,以外标法定量.研究结果表明,温度升高、气流量增大,使甲胺磷挥发量增大较快,二者是影响甲胺磷挥发的主要因素;挥发时间在4 h之内对甲胺磷挥发量影响较大,4 h之后基本无影响.通过试验还研究了甲胺磷在水-气界面的挥发动力学.根据实验结果,建立了甲胺磷在水-气界面挥发的动力学模型,比较实验值与动力学模型计算值,二者基本吻合,相对误差≤5%,这表明该动力学模型可以用于预测甲胺磷在水-气界面的挥发行为.     

重金属和有机氯农药在沈阳郊区农田土壤中的吸附和迁移

采用静态吸附和土柱淋溶实验研究了重金属和有机氯农药在沈阳郊区农田土壤中的迁移转化规律.吸附实验结果表明,土壤对Pb和Cd阳离子的吸附大于对Cr(VI)和As(V)阴离子的吸附,对Cr(VI)的吸附大于对有机氯农药六六六(BHC,包括α-BHC、β-BHC、γ-BHC、δ-BHC)和滴滴涕(DDT,包括o,p'-DDT、p,p'-DDT)的吸附能力.土柱淋溶实验结果表明,Cr(VI)和As(V)在耕层土壤中的迁移速度远大于Pb、Cd的迁移速度,α-BHC由于淋溶液初始浓度较低,因而迁移速度较慢.淋溶实验后,具有较高生物可利用性和迁移性的可交换态重金属的相对含量增加了1.2%～5.4%,从而增加了Pb、Cd、Cr和As等重金属对生态系统的威胁.结合吸附和迁移实验结果可知,所研究污染物中,Cr(VI)和As(V)对地下水的威胁较大,Pb和Cd对农业生产的威胁较大,而目前有机氯农药已被国家明令禁止使用,土壤中的部分残留有机氯农药由于土壤的吸附作用,使得其对农业生产的威胁逐渐减小,对地下水的威胁性也较小.
