上海某生活垃圾焚烧厂周边土壤重金属污染特征、来源分析及潜在生态风险评价

通过原子光谱法对上海某生活垃圾焚烧厂周边表层土壤样品中As、Cu、Cd、Cr、Pb、Ni、Zn、Ti、Mn和Hg等10种重金属含量进行测定,利用富集因子、多元统计和空间插值方法分析重金属来源和空间分布特征,并评价土壤重金属的潜在生态风险水平.结果表明,除Hg和As未检出外,土壤中其他重金属平均含量范围为0.399~4 220 mg·kg~(-1),Cu、Cd、Cr、Pb、Ni、Zn和Mn等7种重金属平均含量均高于土壤背景含量,其中Cd平均含量是背景含量的2.9倍.通过相关性分析、主成分分析、富集因子分析和重金属空间分布特征分析可知,Ti、Mn和Ni空间分布特征相似,主要由自然源贡献;Cd、Cr、Cu、Pb和Zn的分布特征具有一定相似性,其来源主要与工业生产、焚烧烟气和交通运输污染有关.潜在生态风险评价结果显示,被检出重金属的综合潜在生态风险指数均值为108.92,表明垃圾焚烧厂周边土壤处于中等生态风险水平,其中Cd贡献率高达79.63%,应引起重视.

Pollution Characteristics, Source Analysis and Potential Ecological Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in Soils Surrounding a Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Plant in Shanghai

The contents of ten heavy metals (As, Cu, Cd, Cr, Pb, Ni, Zn, Ti, Mn, and Hg) were determined in the surface soils surrounding a municipal solid waste incineration plant in Shanghai using atomic spectroscopy. The spatial distribution and sources of the detected heavy metals were studied by enrichment factor and multivariate statistical and spatial interpolation analyses. In addition, their potential ecological risk was assessed. The results showed that all heavy metals, except Hg and As, were detected with mean contents ranging from 0.399 to 4220 mg·kg^-1. The mean contents of Cu, Cd, Cr, Pb, Ni, Zn, and Mn were higher than their respective background values in Shanghai. In particular, the mean content of Cd was 2.9 times its background value. The results of the Pearson''s correlation, principle component, enrichment factor, and spatial distribution analyses of these heavy metals indicated that Ti, Mn, and Ni primarily originated from natural sources, while Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn originated from industrial manufacturing, combustion, and traffic emissions. The potential ecological risk assessment showed that soils surrounding the municipal solid waste incineration plant suffered from a moderate-level risk. The mean value of the potential ecological risk index of these detected heavy metals was 108.92, of which Cd contributed as high as 79.63%, deserving much attention.
