垃圾焚烧重金属迁移特性及其影响因素

综述了城市固体垃圾(MSW)焚烧过程中的Hg、Cd、Pb、Cu、Zn、As和Cr等几种主要重金属污染源在焚烧过程中的迁移特性及其主要影响因素。将重金属在焚烧过程中的迁变归结为:蒸发、气相和表面反应、冷凝成核团聚和飞灰吸附等4个主要过程;而垃圾中重金属的初始浓度、原始垃圾的基体盐分(如A l、S i和K、Na等的存在形式)、垃圾中的C l(PVC和NaC l)和S的含量、垃圾的含水量以及焚烧过程中的运行参数(温度、滞留时间、氧化-还原气氛)等都会对焚烧过程的迁移规律产生影响。

综述了城市固体垃圾（MSW）焚烧过程中的Hg、Cd、Pb、Cu,Zn,As和Cr等几种主要重金属污染源在焚烧过程中的迁移特性及其主要影响因素。将重金属在焚烧过程中的迂变归结为：蒸发、气相和表面反应、冷凝成核团聚和飞灰吸附等4个主要过程；而垃圾中重金属的初始浓度、原始垃圾的基体盐分（如Al、Si和K、Na等的存在形式）、垃圾中的C1（PVc和NaCl）和S的含量、垃圾的含水量以及焚烧过程中的运行参数（温度、滞留时间、氧化一还原气氛）等都会对焚烧过程的迁移规律产生影响。     

垃圾焚烧过程中影响重金属分布因素的研究

在转式垃圾焚烧炉和固定床加热炉中，研究了有机垃圾焚烧过程中温度、水分、无机氯及有机氯对几种重金属分布的影响。研究结果表明，焚烧垃圾过程中焚烧温度对重金属分布特性的影响特性不一，重金属锌和铅容易转移到气相中去，而重金属镍和铬大部分是以固态形式残留在底渣中；水能与重金属及其化合物发生反应，引起物质转变，影响重金属的分布；氯的存在也影响重金属的分布特性，氯的参与使重金属更易向飞灰或烟气中迁移。     

不同焚烧温度下开发区污泥焚烧渣分析

在不同焚烧温度条件下采用可控温管式炉焚烧开发区干污泥,对污泥焚烧渣中微观形貌、元素分布、矿物组成以及重金属总量及其形态进行了分析研究。实验结果表明,污泥焚烧渣在焚烧温度为900℃出现明显的结焦现象,在焚烧温度为1 100℃时焚烧渣结焦的微观表面致密。XRD分析发现温度的升高使污泥烧渣中出现NaA lS iO4等性质相当稳定的物质。不同重金属在底渣中的总量分布及其形态特征受焚烧温度的影响程度不同。焚烧温度的提高使污泥中重金属的残渣态比例增高,使污泥焚烧对环境的影响减小。     

市政污泥与生活垃圾混烧技术验证简

对市政污泥与生活垃圾混烧进行了验证研究。结果表明,与生活垃圾单独焚烧相比,污泥与生活垃圾混烧后烟气中NO_x、CO和HCl的浓度没有出现明显变化,而SO₂浓度出现了下降（从82~93 mg/m³下降至41~70 mg/m³）;Hg、Pb、Sn、Cr和Zn的浓度均表现为不同程度的上升,但仍然符合GB18485;二恶英从0.0087 ng TEQ/m³降至0.0047 ng TEQ/m³。掺烧半干污泥比例为10%、12%和15%时,吨物质的发电量分别为311.8 kWh/t、306.7 kWh/t和296.1 kWh/t。混烧污泥在一定程度上降低了系统的发电量,因此建议混烧污泥的比例不应大于15%。测算的污泥混烧成本约209元/t（80%含水率）。     

城市生活垃圾与生物质混烧发电技术的实验研究

城市生活垃圾的焚烧发电和生物质能的利用是目前倍受关注的两个研究领域.以华北某垃圾发电厂为依托,对城市生活垃圾与生物质混烧发电技术进行了广泛的实验研究.结果表明:掺烧质量百分比为14%时,垃圾发电机组的效率达到最佳;混烧后烟气中的颗粒物浓度和二恶英浓度有很大的降低,SO2和NOx等酸性气体的浓度略有增加,但仍满足排放要求;单炉直接经济效益711.15元/h.该研究成果对今后垃圾发电厂的运营和生物质能的利用具有一定的工程参考价值.     

流化床掺烧生活垃圾及尾气净化实验研究

在一燃煤流化床上进行了掺烧垃圾的实验，研究了不同掺烧比对燃烧效率、SO2、HCl、N0、N20、二恶英和重金属排放的影响。实验结果表明，随垃圾加入量的增加，飞灰含碳量降低，燃烧效率增加；HCl排放浓度增加，N0和SO2排放量减少，N2O先降低后增加；灰渣中二恶英含量随垃圾加入量的增加而增加；底渣和旋后飞灰中，Cr、Cu、Zn的含量均随垃圾加入量的增加而增加。采用三相流态化净化装置对尾气排放进行了净化处理，当吸收剂为石灰石浆液，浆液浓度为1％，循环倍率为3，喷射速度为5m／s—15m／s，鼓泡管插入深度为140mm时，流态化吸收式垃圾焚烧烟气净化装置的脱硫效率大于90％，脱硝效率在20％—30％之间，脱氯效率大于80％，除尘效率达99％，重金属净化效率大于99％，二恶英净化效率为99％。     

CaO/SiO2对流化床焚烧飞灰熔融过程中重金属挥发的影响

对掺煤混烧的流化床焚烧飞灰熔融过程中重金属在气相(吸收率)中和固相(固定率)中的分布进行了研究,并采用HNO3-NaOH2级吸收方式对气相重金属进行了吸收.结果表明,CaO/SiO2(摩尔比)对重金属的迁移行为有重要影响,CaO/SiO2降低,Cd、Pb固定率总体呈上升趋势;2级吸收对气相重金属的吸收有限,大部分重金属主要溶解在HNO3吸收液中,但NaOH吸收液对Cr的吸收效果好于HNO3吸收液;氯对重金属的挥发有重要影响,当重金属以氯化物形式存在时,其挥发受到SiO2的限制.随着SiO2含量增加,挥发率降低.     

市政污泥与生活垃圾混烧技术验证

对市政污泥与生活垃圾混烧进行了验证研究。结果表明,与生活垃圾单独焚烧相比,污泥与生活垃圾混烧后烟气中NOx、CO和HCl的浓度没有出现明显变化,而SO2浓度出现了下降（从82～93mg／m3下降至41～70mg／m3）;Hg、Pb、Sn、Cr和Zn的浓度均表现为不同程度的上升,但仍然符合GB[g485;二恶英从0．0087μgTEQ／m3降至O．0047μgTEQ／m3。掺烧半干污泥比例为10％、12％和15％时,吨物质的发电量分别为311．8kWh／t、306．7kWh／t和296．1kwh／t。混烧污泥在一定程度上降低了系统的发电量,因此建议混烧污泥的比例不应大于15％。测算的污泥混烧成本约209元／t（80％含水率）。     

两种典型垃圾焚烧灰渣特性的试验研究

针对垃圾的炉排型和流化床型两种典型焚烧工艺,取焚烧底渣和焚烧飞灰样品若干,进行了样品的能谱分析(EDX)和X射线衍射(XRD)分析,并进行对比.研究结果表明,两种焚烧工艺产生的焚烧底渣元素组成均以C、O、Ca为主,而焚烧飞灰相对于焚烧底渣具有结构复杂和性质多变的特性.炉排型焚烧飞灰比流化床型焚烧飞灰含有更多的重金属,更具危险性.     

Adsorption/thermal desorption-GC/MS for the analysis of pesticides in the atmosphere

An analytical methodology using Automatic Thermal Desorption (ATD) and GC/MS was developed for the determination of the pesticides alachlor, atrazine, captan, formothion, lindane and phosalone in atmospheric samples. This methodology was developed to evaluate the atmospheric contamination by pesticides during treatments and by post-application. Atmospheric samples were collected by using (4 i.d. x 89 mm) stainless steel sampling tubes containing 125 mg of adsorbents at a flow rate of 80 ml min-1. Different types of adsorbents were tested for their ability to efficiently trap pesticides under study: Tenax TA, Carbopack Y, Carbopack B, Carbotrap, Carboxen, Chromosorb 106 and XAD-4. Results of experiment show that Tenax gives the better results for all the pesticides used but the use of the thermal-desorption method, especially for pesticides with low volatility and/or poor thermal stability presents some difficulties. This method was validated by the analysis of the contamination of atmosphere, through volatilization by post-application processes, of atrazine in a parcel of 1 ha.     

Mutagenicity of chloroaniline/lignin metabolites in the salmonella/microsome assay

Abstract

Chloroanilines are constituents of many agrochemicals and have been found to be metabolized to succinic acid conjugates, e.g., succinamides and succinimides. The mutagenic potential of five chloroanilines and their succinamides and succinimide derivatives have been tested with two strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA98 and TA100) with and without rat hepatic micro‐somal fraction. None of the compounds produced a dose response effect with a two‐fold increase in revertants indicating that these compounds are not mutagens or promutagens in these assays.

Organochlorine compounds in the liver of cod (Gadusmorhua) in the Northern Baltic

The livers of 53 female cod weighing about 2 kg, caught at three different sites off the Finnish coast, were analyzed for chlorinated hydrocarbons. The average concentrations of PCB-, DDT- and chlordane compounds varied from 2.3 to 5.3, 0.3 to 1.0 and 0.02 to 0.05 mg/kg, respectively.     

Biotransformation of the fungicide pentachloronitrobenzene by Tetrahymenathermophila

The protozoan, $\text{Tetrahymena}$$\text{thermophila}$, metabolizes pentachloronitrobenzene to several products, including nitrite, pentachlorothioanisole and pentachloroaniline. The latter two metabolites were identified by gas chromatographymass spectrometry. Pentachlorothioanisole may be produced via a glutathione-dependent pathway, and two key enzymes of this pathway, glutathione transferase and thiol S-methyltransferase, have been detected in crude extracts of this microorganism.     

Interactions of Trametes versicolor, Coriolopsis rigida and the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus deserticola on the copper tolerance of Eucalyptus globulus

The presence of high levels of Cu in soil decreases the shoot and root dry weights of Eucalyptus globulus. However, higher plant tolerance of Cu has been observed in the presence of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus deserticola. The hyphal length of G. deserticola was sensitive to low Cu concentrations, and the percentage of AM root colonisation and the metabolic activity of the AM fungus were also decreased by Cu. Therefore, a direct effect of Cu on the development of the AM fungus inside and outside the root cannot be ruled out. E. globulus colonised by G. deserticola had higher metal concentrations in the roots and shoots than do non-mycorrhizal plants; however, the absence of a higher root to shoot metal ratio in the mycorrhizal plants (1.70 ± 0.11) indicated that G. deserticola did not play a filtering/sequestering role against Cu. The saprobe fungi Coriolopsis rigida and Trametes versicolor were able to remove Cu ions from the asparagine–glucose growth media. However, plants inoculated with C. rigida and T. versicolor did not accumulate more Cu than non-inoculated controls, and the growth of the plant was not increased in the presence of these fungi. However, C. rigida increased the shoot dry weight, AM root length colonisation, and metabolic mycelial activity of plants colonised with G. deserticola in the presence of Cu; only this saprobe-AM fungus combination increased the tolerance of E. globulus to Cu. Inoculation with G. deserticola and C. rigida increased the E. globulus Cu uptake to levels reached by hyperaccumulative plants.     

Chronic effects of mercuric chloride on the activities of some enzymes in certain tissues of the fresh water murrel, Channapunctatus

Alterations in the activities of some enzymes in the brain, gills, intestine, kidney, liver and muscles have been examined in the fresh water murrel, $\text{Channa}$$\text{punctatus}$, after exposure to a sublethal concentration of mercuric chloride (3 μg/1) for 15, 30 and 60 days. The results revealed that after 15 days of exposure amino acid oxidase activity was elevated in brain and liver and inhibited in intestine. The activity of xanthine oxidase was increased in gills, and inhibited in kidney. Thirty days exposure produced significant inhibition in the activities of malate dehydrogenase in liver, glutamate dehydrogenase in gills and brain, aminoacid oxidase in gills, and xanthine oxidase in liver and intestine. In contrast, glutamate dehydrogenase in intestine, kidney and liver and aminoacid oxidase in brain and liver were elevated. After 60 days of treatment, a decrease in the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase was recorded in gills, intestine, kidney and liver. Hexokinase activity in kidney and liver, and malate dehydrogenase in all the six tissues were inhibited. Glutamate dehydrogenase activity in intestine, kidney and liver remained higher than in control fish. In brain, kidney and liver the activity of aminoacid oxidase was elevated, but in gills the enzyme activity decreased. Xanthine oxidase activity was inhibited in intestine and liver.     

Bioconcentration of trans-chlordane by the midge, Chironomus decorus

The accumulation and transport of the organochlorine pesticide, trans-chlordane, by the midge, Chironomus decorus was examined in a whole life cycle laboratory exposure assay. Larvae were kept in dosed water exposures including food particles from egg stages through adult metamorphosis and were sampled for weight gain and chemical content over the course of the 50 day study. Accumulation of trans-chlordane was related to the amount of contaminant in the larval environment. Concentration of trans-chlordane (ng contaminant/g tissue) in larvae was not significantly different from second through fourth instar stages but depended upon the weight of the larvae. Differences in time to metamorphosis, weight gain and sex ratios occurred among all replicate exposures, including controls, suggesting nongenetic maternal differences, rather than environmental variation caused by chemical exposure. When the larvae metamorphosed, an average of 82.6% of the contaminant was retained in the adults while 11.4% was left behind in the shed exuviae. This study suggests that terrestrial predators feeding on emerging aquatic insects can be exposed to organic pesticides from aquatic environments.     

Summary of the 1991 EPRI/EPA/DOE SO2 Control Symposium

The 1991 SO₂ Control Symposium was held December 3-6, 1991, in Washington, D.C. The symposium, jointly sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), focused attention on recent improvements in conventional sulfur dioxide (SO₂) control technologies, emerging processes, and strategies for complying with the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. Its purpose was to provide a forum for the exchange of technical and regulatory information on SO₂ control technology. Over 800 representatives of 20 countries from government, academia, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) process suppliers, equipment manufacturers, engineering firms, and utilities attended. In all, 50 U.S. utilities and 10 utilities in other countries were represented. In 11 technical sessions, a diverse group of speakers presented 111 technical papers on development, operation, and commercialization of wet and dry FGD, Clean Coal Technologies, and combined sulfur dioxide/nitrogen oxides (SO₂/NO_x processes.
