有机酸对成都平原镉污染土壤的淋洗效果

以成都平原某化工厂附近受Cd污染的2种土壤为对象,采用振荡淋洗技术,研究了有机酸在不同浓度、固液比、振荡时间和复合淋洗条件下对重金属Cd的去除效果。实验结果表明:柠檬酸和酒石酸对Cd含量为22.78 mg·kg~(-1)的SLT-01土壤具有更好的去除效果,分别达到73%和62%,而乙酸和草酸的去除能力较低;随着固液比的降低,有机酸对Cd的去除率逐步提高;随着时间的增加,Cd的去除率波动增加;柠檬酸和酒石酸复合淋洗并没有提高Cd的去除率;振荡淋洗前后土壤结构未发生明显变化。综合考虑土壤中Cd的去除效果和成本,选择柠檬酸作为最佳淋洗剂;最佳实验条件:溶液浓度为0.10 mol·L~(-1),固液比为1∶20,淋洗时间为8 h。     

环境友好型淋洗剂对重金属污染土壤的修复效果

以广西某废弃铅锌冶炼企业重金属复合污染土壤为对象,采用土柱淋洗的方法,分别将自制的茶皂素、柠檬酸和EDTA 3种淋洗剂进行复合淋洗,并对复合淋洗的最佳配比、淋洗剂添加方式和淋洗时间进行研究,得到对环境友好且淋洗效果好的复合淋洗剂。最后,对淋洗前后土壤中Cu、Pb和Zn的赋存形态进行研究,探讨淋洗机理。研究结果表明,茶皂素和柠檬酸复合时对重金属Cu、Pb、Zn的去除率分别达到了77.00%、52.09%和58.66%,综合考虑淋洗效率以及经济环保等因素,选择将茶皂素和柠檬酸复合进行淋洗。复合淋洗实验结果表明,柠檬酸和茶皂素体积比为3∶1复合方式淋洗30 h,淋洗效果最佳,对重金属Cu、Pb和Zn的去除率分别达到82.77%、65.49%和78.12%。茶皂素和柠檬酸复合淋洗能有效的去除土壤中酸可提取态和有机结合态的重金属,氧化物结合态的Pb和Zn也有较大程度的降低,同时还发现,茶皂素和柠檬酸共同作用对残余态的Pb去除效果也较好,可达到50%以上。从茶籽饼中提取茶皂素与天然有机酸柠檬酸复合淋洗,用于修复污染面积小、污染浓度高且污染比较集中的重金属污染土壤,效果好且对环境友好。     

重金属污染土壤的草酸和EDTA混合淋洗研究

采用不同浓度的草酸(oxalic acid,OX)和乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)混合的淋洗方法研究重金属污染土壤的最佳混合淋洗方式,探讨了液固比、淋洗时间及pH对淋洗效果的影响,并分析了0.2 mol/L OX+0.2 mol/L EDTA处理前后土壤中重金属形态的变化。结果表明,采用0.2 mol/L OX+0.2 mol/L EDTA混合的淋洗法可同时去除多种重金属,且对Cu、Zn、Ni和Cr的去除率明显高于单用OX和EDTA,去除率分别为Cu 41.29%、Zn 84.73%、Ni 54.2%和Cr 66.01%。0.2mol/L OX+0.2 mol/L EDTA在液固比为5∶1、淋洗时间为4 h、pH为6时可分别达到最佳淋洗效果,且分别为Cu 62.59%、Zn 93.48%、Ni 55.95%和Cr 71.57%;Cu 50.47%、Zn 86.67%、Ni 61.53%和Cr 72.68%;Cu 44.40%、Zn 81.82%、Ni68.76%和Cr 74.93%。形态分析结果表明,0.2 mol/L OX+0.2 mol/L EDTA能较好地改变土壤中重金属形态的分布。     

铅锌厂重金属污染土壤的螯合剂淋洗修复及其应用

为探讨螯合剂淋洗法在修复铅锌厂周边重金属污染土壤的修复效果及淋洗后土壤利用价值,研究采用振荡淋洗的方法比较了乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)、次氮基三乙酸三钠盐(NTA)、[S,S]-乙二胺-N,N-二琥珀酸三钠盐(EDDS)乙二醇-双-(2-氨基乙醚)四乙酸(EGTA)4种螯合剂对不同污染程度土壤中Cd、Cu、Zn、Pb的去除效果,并用BCR连续提取法分析了淋洗前后土壤重金属形态的变化,最后通过黑麦草盆栽实验及土壤酶分析,探讨了土壤经淋洗后的利用价值。结果表明,4种螯合剂中EDTA对Cd、Cu、Zn和Pb的去除率比其他螯合剂的去除率高,其中对高污染土壤4种重金属离子的去除率最大,分别为Cd 90.98%、Cu 42.10%、Zn 56.98%和Pb 52.03%,4种重金属中Cd的去除效果分别为EDTANTAEDDSEGTA;EDTA能有效去除酸溶态、可还原态土壤重金属,而对可氧化态和残余态土壤重金属作用效果不明显;EDTA淋洗土种植黑麦草后土壤脱氢酶、碱性磷酸酶和β-葡糖苷酶活性均高于NTA淋洗后土壤中酶活性。综合考虑淋洗效率、淋洗剂的成本和利用价值等因素,可以认为,采用EDTA和NTA淋洗修复重金属污染土壤具有一定的实用性,并以EDTA效果较佳。     

不同化学淋洗剂对复合重金属污染土壤的修复机理

化学淋洗技术是一种常用的重金属污染土壤修复技术,化学淋洗剂的选择尤为重要。以乙二胺四乙酸二钠(EDTA),柠檬酸(CA)和三氯化铁(FeCl_3)为化学淋洗剂,采用振荡淋洗法研究淋洗时间与淋洗剂浓度对Cu、Zn、Pb和Cd去除效果的影响,分析重金属污染土壤淋洗前后重金属形态与基本理化性质的变化。结果表明:3种化学淋洗剂对重金属的快速反应阶段基本在60 min内,在240 min达到淋洗平衡,对Pb和Cd的淋洗主要是非均相扩散过程;EDTA、柠檬酸和FeCl_3对重金属的去除能力依次为PbCdCuZn,CdZnCuPb与Pb≈CdCuZn,EDTA的淋洗效率最高,Cd的解吸能力最强;EDTA和FeCl_3可有效去除弱酸可溶态与可还原态重金属,柠檬酸能有效去除弱酸可溶态重金属,修复后的土壤仍有环境风险;3种淋洗剂修复后的土壤中总有机碳与粒径分布无明显变化,FeCl_3会酸化土壤。综合考虑,EDTA、柠檬酸和FeCl_3均为淋洗效果好的环境友好型化学淋洗剂,该研究成果可用于现场淋洗去除土壤中重金属的小试。     

重金属-多氯联苯复合污染土壤同步洗脱

电子垃圾拆解区土壤具有重金属与有机物复合污染的特性,尤其以Cu、Pb、Cd和多氯联苯(PCBs)的复合污染较为突出。为了同步脱除土壤中重金属与PCBs,选用增溶物质:Tween 80、TX-100、SDBS、β-环糊精与螯合剂柠檬酸依次组合进行复合污染土壤淋洗实验,应用批量平衡震荡法研究它们对重金属(Cu、Pb、Cd)与PCBs(Aroclor 1254)的洗脱效果。通过比较洗脱效果、环境友好性等方面,得出非离子表面活性剂Tween 80与天然螯合剂柠檬酸2种淋洗剂复合最佳;进一步研究两者的淋洗先后顺序、浓度配比、洗脱时间及淋洗剂p H对污染土壤洗脱效果的影响,结果表明,在Tween 80和柠檬酸均为10 g/L、p H=6、淋洗时间12 h时淋洗效果达到最佳,对Cu、Pb、Cd及PCBs的洗脱率分别达到98.77%、55.92%、66.82%和58.01%。因此,利用Tween80和柠檬酸组合可同时有效去除土壤重金属和PCBs,是复合污染土壤淋洗修复的有效淋洗剂。     

淋洗对污染土壤重金属形态分布及生物可利用性影响研究

淋洗是一种快速高效的土壤重金属修复技术,淋洗条件的选择对不同土地利用类型的重金属污染修复具有重要意义。以Ni、Cu、Cd复合污染土壤为研究对象,在不同淋洗条件(液固比和pH)下考察6种淋洗剂(去离子水、模拟酸雨、柠檬酸、草酸、乙二胺四乙酸二钠(Na2EDTA)和氨三乙酸(NTA))对Ni、Cu、Cd的淋洗效果、形态分布及生物可利用性影响。结果表明:(1)当液固比5∶1mL/g时,柠檬酸、Na2EDTA、NTA表现出良好的淋洗效果,对建设用地土壤Ni、Cu、Cd的去除率分别达到84.53%、92.30%、56.00%以上。(2)淋洗后土壤中可交换态、可还原态Ni、Cu、Cd浓度均明显降低。(3)总体上,淋洗使残余指数升高、迁移系数降低,重金属离子在液固比20∶1 mL/g时生物可利用性最低。(4)根据实际污染土壤效果,pH 5.2的柠檬酸或pH 7.5的Na2EDTA在液固比20∶1mL/g时可降低农业土壤的风险;建设用地土壤使用液固比5∶1mL/g、pH 7.5的Na2EDTA或pH 7.5的NTA对3种重金属的去除率达80.43%以上。     

超声强化淋洗修复Pb、Cd、Cu复合污染土壤

针对传统淋洗法修复土壤中重金属效率较低的问题,研究了超声强化淋洗技术以提高重金属去除率。以铅(Pb)、镉(Cd)、铜(Cu)为目标污染物,在0.05 mol·L~(-1)柠檬酸、0.05 mol·L~(-1)EDTA和0.05 mol·L~(-1)皂角苷作为淋洗剂条件下,使用传统振荡、超声强化以及超声波加振荡3种不同的作用方式,对Pb、Cd、Cu的去除率进行比较,并对3种不同淋洗方式后Pb、Cd、Cu的形态变化进行了探讨。结果表明,当使用柠檬酸和皂角苷作为淋洗剂进行振荡淋洗时,重金属洗脱效果不理想。超声对于强化柠檬酸洗脱效果并不明显,而对于强化皂角苷洗脱重金属效果明显,平均去除率提高了120.47%。当淋洗剂为EDTA时,土壤样品在传统振荡2 h作用下,对Pb、Cd、Cu的去除率依次为50.33%、76.65%和47.35%,而在超声波30 min条件下对Pb、Cd、Cu的去除率依次为82.19%、83.31%和53.89%,平均去除率高出28.60%,可显著提高重金属去除率,缩短淋洗时间。但超声波30 min加传统振荡2 h相较于单纯超声强化效果提升不明显。通过对比3种淋洗方式后土壤中的Pb、Cd、Cu形态发现,酸可提取态的重金属在超声强化作用后有明显降低,同时超声强化对于铁锰氧化物结合态、有机物结合态和残渣态也具有较好的去除能力。因此,超声强化在化学淋洗中的应用具有一定的可行性,是一种简单、极快速去除污染场地中重金属Pb、Cd、Cu的增效手段。     

比较两种表面活性剂淋洗去除土壤中的重金属

以停车场和湿地2种土壤为研究对象,分别使用表面活性剂鼠李糖脂和月桂基醚硫酸钠对土壤样品进行淋洗,考察2种表面活性剂对这2种土壤中重金属的去除能力差异及形态分布的影响,并分析淋洗后残留在土壤中表面活性剂的生物毒性。结果表明,2种表面活性剂均可在一定程度上去除2种土壤中的Cu、Cd、Pb和Zn。与湿地土壤相比,2种表面活性剂对停车场土壤中重金属的去除率均较高,且月桂基醚硫酸钠的去除能力优于鼠李糖脂。2种表面活性剂对可交换态重金属的去除效果最好,对残渣态重金属去除率较低。淋洗后2种土样中残留的鼠李糖脂及停车场土样中残留的月桂基醚硫酸钠的生物毒性低,湿地土壤中残留的月桂基醚硫酸钠具有一定生物毒性。     

生物酶生态修复重金属污染土壤

以多种重金属污染的土壤为材料,研究了酶对重金属的去除效果。在单因素实验基础上,采用响应面法对重金属去除的反应条件进行优化,结果表明,α-淀粉酶质量浓度0.2%、p H 3.5、反应时间12 h为最佳淋洗修复条件,Cd、Cr、Cu、Ni、Zn去除率分别为82.36%、75.02%、38.38%、34.69%和57.54%,去除率的大小顺序为CdCrZnCuNi。酶作为土壤的组成部分,利用酶修复重金属污染的土壤,可以降低环境风险,具有较好应用前景。     

Chloroaromatic pollutants in mussels incubated in two finnish watercourses polluted by industry

Concentrations of different chlorinated compounds were measured in mussels incubated in two polluted watercourses, a river (the River Kymijoki) and a lake (Lake Vanaja) for four weeks in summer 1995. The sum concentrations of polychlorinated phenols (PCP) and biphenyls (PCB) were both about 1 μg/g lipid weight (lw) in Lake Vanaja mussels, while in the River Kymijoki mussels PCPs were non-detectable and PCBs were measured 120 ng/g lIw. The concentrations of toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and dibenzofuran (PCDF) congeners ranged between <17 and 370 pg/g Iw in Lake Vanaja mussels and between <38 and 11,000 pg/g lw in the River Kymijoki mussels. Polychlorinated diphenyl ethers (PCDE) were detected in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki (0.4–1.1 ng/g Iw), but not in those incubated in Lake Vanaja. Polychlorinated phenoxyanisoles (PCPA) were measured 33 ng/g lw and polychlorinated phenoxyphenols (PCPP) 300 ng/g lw in the mussels incubated in the River Kymijoki. PCPAs were also detected in reference samples, which were sediment and pike from the River Kymijoki and Baltic salmon, seal and white-tailed sea eagle.

Organochlorine compounds in a three-step terrestrial food chain

The concentrations of 15 organochlorine chemicals (PCBs and pesticides) were studied in a Central European oak wood food chain system: Great tit (Parus major), caterpillars (Tortrix viridana, Operophtera brumata, Erannis defoliaria), and oak-leaves (Quercus robur). Juvenile tits receive organochlorines from the mother via egg transfer and, eventually to a greater extent, from the caterpillar food source during nestling period. The concentrations of PCB 153 (2,2′,4,4′,5,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl, the most abundant in this study) was found in leaf material at ca. 1 ng/g, in caterpillars 10 ng/g, and in bird eggs 170 ng/g on an average and on a dry mass basis.     

The chemical stability of formulations of some hydrolyzable insecticides in aqueous mixtures with hydrolysis catalysts

Abstract

The active ingredients in commercial formulations of malathion, oxamyl, carbaryl, diazinon, and chlorpyrifos diluted to “spray tank”; concentrations with buffered distilled or natural water of pH 4–9 were stable for at least 24 hr. Formulations of trichlorfon were not stable at pH 7 or above but disappearance rates were slower than for the pure chemical in homogeneous solution. Cupric ion was observed to be an effective catalyst for the hydrolysis of a variety of pure organophosphorus insecticides but did not catalyze hydrolysis of the active ingredients of the formulations examined. Increasing the dilution of the formulation increased the susceptibility of malathion, oxamyl, and carbaryl to hydrolysis.     

Radionuclides in pinon pine (Pinus edulis) nuts from los alamos national laboratory lands and the dose from consumption

Abstract

One of the dominant tree species growing within and around the eastern portion of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, NM, lands is the pinon pine (Pinus edulis). Pinon pine is used for firewood, fence posts, and building materials and is a source of nuts for food—the seeds are consumed by a wide variety of animals and are also gathered by people in the area and eaten raw or roasted. This study investigated the (1) concentration of ³H, ¹³⁷Cs, ⁹⁰Sr, ^totU, ²³⁸Pu, ^{239, 240}Pu, and²⁴¹ Am in soils (0‐ to 12‐in. [31 cm] depth underneath the tree), pinon pine shoots (PPS), and pinon pine nuts (PPN) collected from LANL lands and regional background (BG) locations, (2) committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE) from the ingestion of nuts, and (3) soil to PPS to PPN concentration ratios (CRs). Most radionuclides, with the exception of ³H in soils, were not significantly higher (p < 0.10) in soils, PPS, and PPN collected from LANL as compared to BG locations, and concentrations of most radionuclides in PPN from LANL have decreased over time. The maximum net CEDE (the CEDE plus two sigma minus BG) at the most conservative ingestion rate (10 lb [4.5 kg]) was 0.0018 mrem (0.018 μSv); this is far below the International Commission on Radiological Protection (all pathway) permissible dose limit of 100 mrem (1000 μSv). Soil‐to‐nut CRs for most radionuclides were within the range of default values in the literature for common fruits and vegetables.     

Degradation and sorption of imidacloprid in dissimilar surface and subsurface soils

Degradation and sorption/desorption are important processes affecting the leaching of pesticides through soil. This research characterized the degradation and sorption of imidacloprid (1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridinyl)-methyl]-N-nitro-2-imidazolidinimine) in Drummer (silty clay loam) and Exeter (sandy loam) surface soils and their corresponding subsurface soils using sequential extraction methods over 400 days. By the end of the incubation, approximately 55% of imidacloprid applied at a rate of 1.0 mg kg^?1 degraded in the Exeter sandy loam surface and subsurface soils, compared to 40% of applied imidacloprid within 300 days in Drummer surface and subsurface soils. At the 0.1 mg kg^?1 application rate, dissipation was slower for all four soils. Water-extractable imidacloprid in Exeter surface soil decreased from 98% of applied at day 1 to > 70% of the imidacloprid remaining after 400 d, as compared to 55% in the Drummer surface soil at day 1 and 12% at day 400. These data suggest that imidacloprid was bioavailable to degrading soil microorganisms and sorption/desorption was not the limiting factor for biodegradation. In subsurface soils > 40% of ¹⁴C-benzoic acid was mineralized over 21 days, demonstrating an active microbial community. In contrast, cumulative ¹⁴CO₂ was less than 1.5% of applied ¹⁴C-imidacloprid in all soils over 400 d. Qualitative differences in the microbial communities appear to limit the degradation of imidacloprid in the subsurface soils.     

Biochemical interaction of six op delayed neurotoxicants with several neurotargets

Abstract

Five organophosphorous insecticides: Leptophos, EPN, Cyano‐fenphos, trichloronate and salithion proved to cause irreversible ataxia not only to chicken but also to mice and sheep. TOCP was included as a reference. Cyanofenphos blocked the catecholamine B‐receptor binding activity with ³H‐norepinephrine at a level similar to that of the specific inhibitor propranolol in the mouse heart preparation. In the lamb heart preparation, the B‐receptor was more sensitive to Leptophos, salithion and TOCP than to propranolol. The six compounds and their oxons were screened for their in‐vitro inhibition to monamine oxidase (MAO), acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) and neurotoxic esterase (NTE) in the brain of either mouse, lamb or chicken. It is believed that their AChE inhibition stands for their acute toxicity, while NTE inhibition is responsible for their paralytic ataxia.

Elemental uptake by edible herbs and lettuce (Latuca sativa)

The total concentration of toxic elements (aluminum, cadmium, chromium and lead) and selected macro and micro elements (iron, manganese, copper and zinc) are reported in six leafy edible vegetation species, namely lettuce, spinach, cabbage, chards and green and red types of Amaranth herbs. Although spinach and chards had greater than 125 mv of iron, both the amaranthus herbs recorded > than 320 μ g g^{? 1} dry weight. In both the spinach and chard species, the Mn and Zn levels were appreciable recording > 225 μ g g^{? 1} and 150 μ g g^{? 1} dry weight, respectively. Aluminum concentrations were (in μ g g^{? 1} dry weight) lettuce (10), cabbage (11), spinach (167), chards (65), amaranthus green (293) and amaranthus red (233). All the micro and macro elements and the toxic elements (Ni, Cr, Cd and Pb) elements analyzed, were below the recommended maximum permitted levels (RMI) in vegetables. Further the elemental uptake and distribution of the nine elements, at three growth stages of the lettuce plant grown on soil bed under controlled conditions are detailed. In the soil, except for iron (16%), greater than 33% of the other cations were in exchangeable form. Generally in the lettuce plant, roots retained much of the iron (> 224 μ g g^{? 1}) and aluminum (> 360 μ g g^{? 1}), while leaves had less than 200 μ g g^{? 1} of iron and 165 μ g g^{? 1} of Al. Although the concentrations of elements marginally decreased with growth, the lettuce leaves had significant amounts of Mn (30 μ g g^{? 1}), Zn (50 μ g g^{? 1}) and Cu (3.6 μ g g^{? 1}). Some presence of lead in leaves (2.0 μ g g^{? 1}) was noticed, but all the toxic and other elements analyzed were well below the RMI values for the vegetables.     

The dissipation of nonlyphenol in stream and pond water under simulated field conditions

Abstract

The dissipation of 1.0 ppm nonylphenol in stream and pond water, incubated in flasks at 16°C under simulated field conditions up to 44 days indicated that the half‐life was 2.5 days if the flasks were open, and 16 days if they were closed. A transformed product was detected in the closed flasks.

Translocation of nonylphenol in water occurred when treated water samples were incubated in the presence of sediment. After 10 days, nonylphenol was detected only in the sediment, but not in water (detection limit = 10 ppb). About 80% of the nonylphenol was degraded in 71 days, but no degradation occurred if the water and the sediment were autoclaved prior to incubation.
