不同人工湿地基质对污水总有机碳去除能力初探

选择4种常见基质及基质配比,研究其碳含量和组分对污水中总有机碳(TOC)的去除影响。结果显示当污水的TOC浓度为27 mg/L时,4种基质都向水体中释放碳,且释放碳的大小顺序为:砂子-土壤-泥炭混合基质土壤砂子-土壤混合基质砂子,基质的碳含量越高,释放到水体中碳越多。3种基质对水体中TOC的去除率大小顺序为:土壤砂子-土壤混合物基质砂子,基质碳含量越高,微生物活性越强,对TOC的去除率越高。在第12天,砂子-土壤-泥炭混合基质处理中TOC浓度的增加,与其稳结合态有机碳含量较高有关。有机碳含量和组分影响了人工湿地基质对TOC的去除。     

不同土地利用方式下土壤养分和重金属元素垂直分布特征

为探讨不同土地利用方式下土壤养分和重金属元素垂直分布特征,对2种母质的自然土壤、耕作土壤、休耕土壤养分和重金属元素垂直分布状况进行了比较研究。结果表明:不同土地利用方式下土壤表层养分元素含量总体表现为休耕土壤耕作土壤自然土壤,土壤表层重金属含量总体表现为农田土壤(耕作土壤和休耕土壤)自然土壤,耕作土壤与休耕土壤差异较小,土壤淀积层到母质层养分和重金属元素差异逐渐减小;土壤养分元素和Cu、Zn、Pb、Cd随土层深度的增加而减小,而Cr表现出相反的趋势;农田土壤耕作层有效钾含量最高可达215.6 mg·kg~(-1);耕作层Cd含量最高可达0.74 mg·kg~(-1)。3种土地利用方式中,休耕土壤养分和重金属含量相对较高,建议在休耕期间种植伴矿景天等重金属高积累植物进行植物修复。

影响有机污染物在土壤中的迁移、转化行为的因素

本文介绍了有机污染物在土壤中的吸附与解吸附、渗滤、挥发和降解等行为过程。探讨了吸附与解吸附机理、土壤有机质含量和类型、水分含量及温度等对此过程的影响。依据某些典型的化合物行为模型,论述了影响土壤中有机污染物渗滤的因素。有机污染物需要先从土壤深层迁移至地表,然后挥发至大气,在土壤中迁移的速率较慢,控制着整个挥发过程,可用Ｆｉｃｋ 第二定律来描述。有机污染物在土壤中的非生物降解主要包括氧化－ 还原、光解和水解等反应。土壤中的Ｏ２ 含量、土壤有机质成分和含量、辐射强度、光谱分布、土壤水分含量、温度和ｐＨ 值等都会影响非生物降解过程。其中有些因素通过影响微生物的生物活性,还影响有机污染物的生物降解     

绿狐尾藻人工湿地底泥中磷形态分布特征研究

构建处理不同负荷养殖废水的绿狐尾藻人工湿地,采集湿地表层(0~5cm)、中层(5~10cm)和底层(10~20cm)底泥样品,测定TP及有机磷含量,并用五步化学分级提取法将无机磷逐级提取为水溶性磷、铝结合态磷(Al-P)、铁结合态磷(Fe-P)、闭蓄态磷(O-P)和钙结合态磷(Ca-P),对比了各形态无机磷水平和垂直分布差异。结果表明,绿狐尾藻人工湿地表层底泥TP质量浓度在167~965mg/kg,其中有机磷占TP的66.0%(质量分数,下同)~79.2%。各形态无机磷的含量排序为:O-PFe-PCa-PAl-P可溶性磷。不同形态无机磷随着底泥深度的增加变化不同,总体来看,从表层到中层,Al-P、Fe-P和Ca-P含量呈现降低趋势,中层到底层无明显变化规律;低负荷湿地中,O-P含量随深度增加逐渐降低,而在中、高负荷湿地中O-P含量随深度增加逐渐增加。相关分析结果显示,Al-P、Fe-P、O-P含量与底泥pH和溶解性有机碳(DOC)呈显著或极显著正相关,说明磷在底泥中的行为易受底泥pH和DOC影响。     

长江下游湖泊中可溶性有机碳的时空分布

北京地区石灰性土壤对锰的吸附

本文研究了北京地区４种类型５个石灰性土壤样品对锰的吸附、及其与土壤各理化性质的关系。在每克土壤加入２５ｍｌ１０～２００ｇＭｎ／ｍｌ的剂量范围内，土壤对锰的吸附极好的遵从Ｆｒｅｕｎｄｒｉｃｈ等温方程，而是否符合Ｌａｎｇｍｕｉｒ等温方程则与加入的锰溶液浓度有关，当其小于１２０　ｇＭｎ／ｍｌ时，则能较好地符合Ｌａｎｇｍｕｉｒ方程；这一现象说明，土壤具有两种或两种以上的吸附位。在土壤各理化性质中主要是粘粒含量和阳离于交换总量（ＣＥＣ）影响到锰的吸附。但在锰溶液浓度较低时，各土壤理化性质均与土壤吸附锰量无显著相关。平衡溶液的ｐＨ强烈影响土壤吸附锰的能力，当ｐＨ由４上升至７左右时，土壤对锰的吸附急剧增加，ｐＨ值再上升，土壤吸附锰量的增加趋于平缓。

Effect of physical forms of soil organic matter on phenanthrene sorption

The sorption coefficient, K(OC), of phenanthrene (PHE) has been reported to vary with different types of organic matter, leading to uncertainties in predicting the environmental behavior of PHE. Among the studies that relate organic matter properties to their sorption characteristics, physical conformation of organic matter is often neglected. In this work, organic matter samples of different physical forms were examined for their sorption characteristics. Dissolved humic acids (DHA) showed significantly higher K(OC) than the corresponding solid humic acids (SHA) from which the DHAs were made. The K(OC) of DHAs was found to be related to polarity, whereas K(OC) of SHAs increased with aliphatic carbon content. Soil particles were treated with H(2)O(2) to remove organic matter, and humic acid was coated on H(2)O(2)-treated soil particles to make organo-mineral complexes at pH 4, 7 and 10. Although the nonlinear sorption was apparent for SHAs and H(2)O(2)-treated soil particles, the organo-mineral complexes formed using these two components at pH 4, 7 and 10 exhibited relatively linear sorption at organic carbon content, f(OC)>0.5%. These results indicate that organic matter of the same composition may have different sorption properties due to different physical forms (or conformations). Nonlinear sorption for the complexes formed at pH 4 with lower f(OC) (<0.5%) was also discussed.     

Adsorption behavior of 2,4-dichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol in an allophanic soil

The adsorption of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP) by a variable-charge soil from southern Chile was studied in a series of batch equilibration experiments. 2,4-DCP and PCP adsorption behavior was evaluated as a function of pH (pH values of 4.5, 6.0 and 7.5) in a 0.1M KCl (25 degrees C) background solution for soil material collected at three different depths (0-20 cm, 20-40 cm, and 40-60 cm). 2,4-DCP and PCP adsorption decreased with increasing soil pH, suggesting that the undissociated species were adsorbed more readily and that electrostatic repulsion may inhibit partitioning as pH increases. The PCP adsorption was greater than observed for 2,4-DCP and decreased with soil depth. Multiple regression analysis between K(d) and various soil properties indicated that the soil organic carbon content is a strong indicator of chlorophenol adsorption, and in addition to organic carbon, the soil pH is an important property controlling adsorption behavior.     

Organic carbon concentration profiles in recent cave sediments: records of agricultural pollution or diagenesis?

Recent (<7 years old) cave sediments in Speedwell Cavern, Derbyshire, show an approximately exponential decay of organic carbon with depth. This phenomenon was thought to be due to one of two causes: (i) changing agricultural practice within the catchment feeding the cave, especially the increased use of sewage sludge and animal slurry as fertilizer; (ii) a relatively constant organic carbon concentration over time in the input sediment, with subsequent carbon mineralization during diagenesis. Carbon isotope composition of the organic material and the evolution of H/C ratio with depth indicate that the latter hypothesis is correct and that the profiles result from microbial diagenesis, not increased organic carbon inputs. By comparison with sediment of known (7 years) age, temporal decay constants for organic matter can be derived; these lie between rates previously determined for organic matter decomposition in marine sediments and soils. The H/C ratio of organic matter can be modelled as a function of time and proceeds in a similar fashion to soil organic material.     

Downward movement of cadmium and phosphorus from phosphatic fertilisers in a pasture soil in New Zealand

Total cadmium (Cd) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in a pastoral soil, amended annually for 10 years with four forms of P fertilisers, decreased with soil depth. Single superphosphate (SSP) and North Carolina phosphate rock (NCPR) which had higher Cd contents (32 and 41 mg kg(-1), respectively) produced higher total soil Cd than diammonium phosphate (DAP-10 mg kg(-1)), Jordan phosphate rock (JPR-5 mg kg(-1)) and control treatments to a depth of 120 mm. Total soil P in SSP treated plots to a depth of 120 mm and NCPR treated plots to a depth of 75 mm was also higher than the control plots. No significant fertiliser P and Cd moved below 120 mm depth. Approximately 90% of the applied Cd was recovered in the soil of which 93% remained within the top 120 mm. Plant recovery of applied Cd was 1.5-4.5%. Plant available P (Olsen P) also decreased with depth. Plant available Cd (0.01 M CaCl2 extractable Cd) was higher in the 30-75 and 75-120 mm soil depths compared to 0-30 mm soil depth. This may be due to strong adsorption of Cd by the surface soils which have a higher organic matter content and higher pH; factors which are known to increase Cd adsorption in soils     

Assessment of natural and calcined starfish for the amelioration of acidic soil

Quality improvement of acidic soil (with an initial pH of approximately 4.5) with respect to soil pH, exchangeable cations, organic matter content, and maize growth was attempted using natural (NSF) and calcined starfish (CSF). Acidic soil was amended with NSF and CSF in the range of 1 to 10 wt.% to improve soil pH, organic matter content, and exchangeable cations. Following the treatment, the soil pH was monitored for periods up to 3 months. The exchangeable cations were measured after 1 month of curing. After a curing period of 1 month, the maize growth experiment was performed with selected treated samples to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment. The results show that 1 wt.% of NSF and CSF (700 and 900 °C) were required to increase the soil pH to a value higher than 7. In the case of CSF (900 °C), 1 wt.% was sufficient to increase the soil pH value to 9 due to the strong alkalinity in the treatment. No significant changes in soil pHs were observed after 7 days of curing and up to 3 months of curing. Upon treatment, the cation exchange capacity values significantly increased as compared to the untreated samples. The organic content of the samples increased upon NSF treatment, but it remains virtually unchanged upon CSF treatment. Maize growth was greater in the treated samples rather than the untreated samples, except for the samples treated with 1 and 3 wt.% CSF (900 °C), where maize growth was limited due to strong alkalinity. This indicates that the amelioration of acidic soil using natural and calcined starfish is beneficial for plant growth as long as the application rate does not produce alkaline conditions outside the optimal pH range for maize growth.     

Organic carbon oxidation induced by large-scale shallow water intrusion into a vertical fracture zone at the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory (Sweden)

Entrance tunnel construction at the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory opened a conductive vertical fracture zone at a depth of 70 m on March 13, 1991. Three weeks later a sharp dilution front corresponding to 80% shallow water inflow to the originally saline fracture zone arrived at the entrance tunnel depth. In spite of this large inflow of shallow water, the fracture zone has remained persistently anoxic over a subsequent period. Results from gas sampling and ¹⁴C dating of dissolved organic and inorganic carbon conclusively show that recent organic carbon is being transported into the fracture zone and oxidized to carbon dioxide. These results are important when considering possible changes of redox status in the deep groundwater environment during construction and operation of a repository for spent nuclear fuel. Opening this fracture zone to large-scale surface water inflow adds reducing capacity in the form of organic carbon. This implies that the soil cover may provide important protection against input of dissolved oxygen to fractures being drained during the open phase of the repository.     

Development of a protocol for monitoring status and trends in forest soil carbon at a national level

The national Forest Health Monitoring (FHM) program requires protocols for monitoring soil carbon contents. In a pilot study, 30 FHM plots loblolly shortleaf (Pinus taeda L./Pinus echinata Mill.) pine forests across Georgia were sampled by horizon and by depth increments. For total soil carbon, approximately 40% of the variance was between plots, 40% between subplots and 20% within subplots. Results by depth differed from those obtained by horizon primarily due to the rapid changes in carbon content from the top to the bottom of the A horizon. Published soil survey information overestimated bulk densities for these forest sites. The measurement of forest floor depths as a substitute to sampling did not provide reliable estimates of forest floor carbon. Precision of replicate samples was approximately 10-30% for field duplicates and 5-10% for laboratory duplicates. Based on national indicator evaluation criteria, sampling by depth using bulk density core samplers has been recommended for national implementation. Additional procedures are needed when sampling organic soils or soils with a high percentage of large rock fragments.     

PCB in soils and estimated soil-air exchange fluxes of selected PCB congeners in the south of Sweden

PCB concentrations were studied in different soils to determine the spatial variation over a region of approximately 11 000 km(2). PCB congener pattern was used to illustrate the spatial differences, as shown by principal component analysis (PCA). The relationship to different soil parameters was studied. PCB concentrations in soil showed a large variation between sampling-areas with median concentrations ranging between 2.3 and 332 ng g(-1) (dw). Highest concentrations were found at two sites with sandy soils, one with extremely high organic carbon content. Both sites were located on the west coast of southern Sweden. Soils with similar soil textures (i.e. sandy silt moraine) did not show any significant differences in PCB concentrations. PCB congener composition was shown to differ between sites, with congener patterns almost site-specific. PCB in air and precipitation was measured and the transfer of chemicals between the soil and air compartments was estimated. Soil-air fugacity quotient calculations showed that the PCBs in the soil consistently had a higher fugacity than the PCBs in the air, with a median quotient value of 2.7. The gaseous fluxes between soil and air were estimated using standard modelling equations and a net soil-air flux estimated by subtracting bulk deposition from gaseous soil-air fluxes. It was shown that inclusion of vertical sorbed phase transport of PCBs in the soil had a large effect on the direction of the net soil-air exchange fluxes.     

Carbendazim sorption-desorption in Vietnamese soils

Four Vietnamese soils (denoted AG, CT, ST and TG) which differed with respect to pH (pH 2.9-5.4), clay (17-50%) and organic matter (0.3-9.8%) content, were selected for sorption and desorption studies of carbendazim using the batch equilibration technique. Sorption increased with increasing organic carbon (OC) and clay content. Kd values for carbendazim sorption on AG, CT, ST, TG soils at initial concentration of 20 microg/g were 12.5, 127, 8.1 and 9.6 ml/g, respectively. The OC partition coefficients (Koc) for AG, CT, ST and TG were 1140, 1300, 2700 and 960 ml/g, respectively. Carbendazim was strongly sorbed and the binding was less reversible in the acid sulfate soil (CT), than in the other soils. The CT soil had both the highest OC content (9.8%) and the highest clay content (49.8%). The influence of pH on carbendazim sorption was studied in the ST and CT soils. Sorption of carbendazim by the sandy ST soil (OC 0.3%; clay content 26.3%) increased as the pH decreased, while sorption of carbendazim by the CT soil decreased as pH decreased.
