活性氮和世界:200年的变化

本文通过将19世纪后期和20世纪后期的氮流动情况进行对比,分析了食物和能源生产对全球氮循环的影响.我们虽然对人类产生的活性氮的数量及其释放到环境所产生的主要影响有了充分的认识,但是,我们对于环境库中氮的累积速度缺乏了解,由于积累在环境中的氮具有阶式效应,因此,对其在环境中的积累尚有不明之处.未来活性氮的产生、分布状况及其形成速度增加的可能性(尤其是在亚洲)存在巨大的区域性差异,因而需要制定"总活性氮措施",以优化食物和能源生产,保护环境系统.     

Effect of substituents in hydroxyl radical-mediated degradation of azo pyridone dyes: Theoretical approaches on the reaction mechanism

Understanding the degradation behavior of azo dyes in photocatalytic wastewater treatment is of fundamental and practical importance for their application in textile-processing and other coloration industries. In this study, quantum chemistry, as density functional theory, was used to elucidate different degradation pathways of azo pyridone dyes in a hydroxyl radical (HO^?)-initiated photocatalytic system. A series of substituted azo pyridone dyes were synthesized by changing the substituent group in the para position of the benzene moiety, ranging from strong electron-donating to strong electron-withdrawing groups. The effect of dye molecular structure on the photocatalytic degradation reaction mechanism was analyzed and quantification of substituent effects on the thermodynamic and kinetics parameters was performed. Potential energy surface analysis revealed the most susceptible reaction site for the HO^? attack. The calculated reaction barriers are found to be strongly affected by the nature of substituent group with a good correlation using Hammett σ_p constants and experimentally determined reaction rates. The stability of pre-reaction complexes and transition state complexes were analyzed applying the distortion-interaction model. The increased stability of the transition state complexes with the distancing from the substituent group has been established.     

固定化混合菌修复油污染地表水的研究

从辽河油田受石油污染的河床底泥中筛选出一株芽孢杆菌(Bacillus sp.)和一株黄杆菌(Flavobacterium sp.),采用二次交联化学方法对2株细菌单独及混合固定,分别进行了不同接种量的固定化细菌对油的降解,以及固定化混合菌对环境的耐受性和在自然地表水中对油的降解进行研究,结果表明,在相同时间内固定化混合菌对油的降解效果明显优于固定化单株菌,而且都优于游离菌。固定化混合菌pH在6～10、温度在20～40℃范围内能保持较好的活性。在120 h时,固定化混合菌对自然地表水中油的降解率达94.5%,对地表水中COD的去除率达89.6%。扫描电子显微镜分析显示,固定化载体的微观结构适合细菌的生长,固定化混合菌在载体内部形成高密度的菌群。以上的研究为固定化微生物应用于油污染地表水的生物修复提供了一定的理论基础。     

三峡库区水华优势藻类生长动力学的普适性研究

从蓝绿藻中选取绿藻门的普通小球藻(Chlorella vulgaris,CV藻)为研究对象,应用Monod方程考察氮、磷营养盐对CV藻生长的影响,分别计算出CV藻对TP、TN的半饱和常数KSP和KSN结果表明KSN>>KSP,说明TP对CV藻生长的影响明显大于TN.CV藻生长速率对磷质量浓度反应很灵敏:与空白值相比,在0.002 mg·L-1的低浓度下u就有提高,而浓度到0.2 mg.L-1时,u明显增大;但在0.000-0.050 mg·L-1氮浓度范围内u几乎没有变化.通过系统比较CV藻与优势蓝绿藻,甚至海水藻的生长动力学特征,探讨了CV藻与其它蓝绿藻的动力学普适性和共同性,证实这些藻类都具有非常类似的生长动力学和生态学特征.因此,推测CV藻生长动力学模型可以从整体上反映和代表库区优势蓝绿藻的生长行为.同时分析和归纳了蓝绿藻生长模型的相似性和规律性,得出三峡库区优势藻类生长行为存在普遍一致性的初步结论.     

Improved speciation of dissolved organic nitrogen in natural waters: amide hydrolysis with fluorescence derivatization

The objective of this study was to improve primary-amine nitrogen (1°-N) quantification in dissolved organic matter (DOM) originating from natural waters where inorganic forms of N, which may cause analytical interference, are commonly encountered. Efforts were targeted at elucidating organic-N structural criteria influencing the response of organic amines to known colorimetric and fluorescent reagents and exploring the use of divalent metal-assisted amide hydrolysis in combination with fluorescence analyse...     

Indoor and outdoor BTX levels in Barcelona City metropolitan area and Catalan rural areas

Five aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, and three isomeric xylenes) were monitored in indoor and outdoor air of 7 public buildings and 54 private homes, located in Barcelona City metropolitan area and in several rural areas of Catalonia. The sampling was carried out over four periods: spring-summer and winter of 2000, and summer and winter of 2001. Passive ORSA 5 Dra¨ger samplers were used for benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) adsorption. BTX were extracted with carbon disulphide and analysed using ...     

Numerical study on the ozone formation inside street canyons using a chemistry box model

Tropospheric ozone is a secondary air pollutant produced in the presence of nitrogen oxides (NO_x),volatile organic compounds (VOCs),and solar radiation.In an urban environment,ground-level vehicular exhaust is the major anthropogenic source of ozone precursors.In the cases of street canyons,pollutant dilution is weakened by the surrounding buildings that creates localized high concentration of NO_x and VOCs,and thus leads to high potential of ozone formation.By considering the major physical and chemica...     

地中海钕的质量平衡

通过测量流入地中海诸河流的微粒、洋底粘土和铁锰皮壳以及大气圈尘埃样品中Nd同位素比值,估价了地中海Nd的质量平衡。波河和罗讷河的∈_(Nd)值分别为-10.8和-9.7,尼罗河、塞伊汉河和塔尔苏斯河则分别为-3.3、-6.2和-6.3。海底粘土和铁锰皮壳的∈_(Nd)值从-2.0变化到-10.1,而尘埃样品为-8.2到-11.0。与大西洋相比(∈_(Nd)=-12),注入地中海海水中相对富放射成因的Nd同位素组成反映了注入海盆的是微粒钕的局部平衡,而不是溶解钕部分。     

哥斯达黎加的地震危险性

<正> 1 地震危险性评定历史在哥斯达黎加,最先进行地震危险性评定工作的是Mortgat等。自本世纪下半叶以来,对重要结构、生命线工程如水电与地热计划、水厂和重要桥梁等都有必要进行专门的地震危险性分析.目前,对任何重要工程结构进行这样的研究已很普遍。2 基本资料Gonzalez和Montero编制了包括1910年前地震事件的历史地震目录。仪器记录的地震目录散见于各种参考文献(例如Miyarmura,1980;Morales,1985)。哥斯达黎加的震源集中在     

美国的酸雨研究进展和对策

引言解决酸雨问题是一项涉及科学、政策及人民利益的复杂问题。在进行公众利益决策中,需仔细拣别上述因素。美国面临的基本问题是根据现有的酸雨科学知识和环境损失估算是否需提高美国现行清洁空气法的控制目标。本文的目的是阐明与酸雨有关的科学和政策问题。 1983年6月,美国发表了三篇重要的酸雨报告。国家酸雨工作组的报告认为美国东北部和加拿大的90％以上的酸雨来自人为源。科学院的国家科学研究委员会认为广大
