酵母菌对厨余垃圾厌氧发酵产乙酸的影响

研究了酵母菌对厌氧发酵过程中垃圾水解速率、挥发性有机酸(VFA)产量、乙酸产量的影响。结果表明：控制反应器中pH值为7时,接种酵母菌后,垃圾的水解速率明显提高,产酸速率和产酸量都明显高于不接种酵母菌的反应器,乙酸浓度能够达到9 458 mg/L,占挥发性有机酸总量的58.2%。垃圾本身含有的微生物对产酸也有促进作用,酵母菌和垃圾本身含有的微生物共同作用才能使得乙酸的产生最大化。     

Hydrogeochemical Indicators of Groundwater Flow Systems in the Yangwu River Alluvial Fan,Xinzhou Basin,Shanxi, China

Based on analysis of groundwater hydrochemical and isotopic indicators, this article aims to identify the groundwater flow systems in the Yangwu River alluvial fan, in the Xinzhou Basin, China. Groundwater δ²H and δ¹⁸O values indicate that the origin of groundwater is mainly from precipitation, with local evaporative influence. d-excess values lower than 10% in most groundwaters suggest a cold climate during recharge in the area. Major ion chemistry, including rCa/rMg and rNa/rCl ratios, show that groundwater salinization is probably dominated by water–rock interaction (e.g., silicate mineral weathering, dissolution of calcite and dolomite and cation exchange) in the Yangwu River alluvial fan, and locally by intensive evapotranspiration in the Hutuo River valley. Cl and Sr concentrations follow an increasing trend in shallow groundwater affected by evaporation, and a decreasing trend in deep groundwater. ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios reflect the variety of lithologies encountered during throughflow. The groundwater flow systems (GFS) of the Yangwu River alluvial fan include local and intermediate flow systems. Hydrogeochemical modeling results, simulated using PHREEQC, reveal water–rock interaction processes along different flow paths. This modeling method is more effective for characterizing flow paths in the intermediate system than in the local system. Artificial exploitation on groundwater in the alluvial fan enhances mixing between different groundwater flow systems.

武安市土地利用结构信息熵时空变化分析

分析土地利用结构时空变化是研究区域土地利用优化配置的重要途径之一.基于信息熵理论,以河北省武安市为例,对1996-2006年的土地利用结构信息熵变化以及2006年各乡(镇)信息熵差异进行研究,同时运用主成分分析法对信息熵变化的驱动力进行分析.结果表明,武安市土地利用结构信息熵持续增长,土地利用结构均衡度较高;2006年各乡镇信息熵差异较大,可划分成3种类型区;经济因素和人口流动因素是信息熵变化主要驱动力.     

淮河流域安徽省2007年的暴雨洪水特性分析

为系统研究淮河流域安徽省2007年的暴雨洪水特征,对降雨过程和暴雨频率进行了分析.结果表明,2007年的主要暴雨特性是梅雨时间长,梅雨量淮河以北多、淮河以南少,降雨时间长、强度大、范围广,降雨时空分布不均.通过淮河干支流洪水过程和淮河干流洪水特征值的分析,结果表明,2007年的主要洪水特性是水位高、流量大,高水位持续时间长,干支流洪水并发,洪水组合恶劣.虽然淮河干流经过了大规模的治理,2007年洪水期间沿淮启用了蒙洼等9个行蓄洪区,但淮河中游仍然持续高水位,润河集至汪集段超过历史最高洪水位,表明淮河流域洪水灾害较为严重,需要进一步研究如何科学调度沿淮行蓄洪区、如何协调淮河与洪泽湖之间的关系,以便更好地进行该流域的洪水管理.     

我国城乡应急管理初探

@站在刚刚到来的2009年,不能不回望震撼人心的2008年,虽然<中国环境报>在对比2007年大事时表示,2008年并没有发生那么多突发性群体事件,但我要说2008年事故灾害类突发事件不断,其影响力是近十年来国内少有的.也由于有关专家在盘点并归纳新世纪的"灾事"及管理对策时说,我国的应急管理体系要稳步推进,并宣称国际化配合是当务之急.据此我的观点是,我们不仅应理性分析2008年"灾情"的教训,同时要对安全发展我国城乡建设提出切实可行的对策.

Effects of cadmium on forearm bone density after reduction of exposure for 10 years in a Chinese population

The main focus of this study was to evaluate long term effects of cadmium on forearm bone mineral density after stopping ingestion of cadmium-polluted rice for 10 years in a Chinese population. A total of 532 persons (338 women and 194 men), living in control, moderately and heavily polluted areas, were included in this study. The residents living in the polluted area ceased ingesting cadmium-polluted rice in 1996. All participants were require to answer a questionnaire and the bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the proximal radius and ulna. Samples of urine and blood were collected for determination of cadmium in urine (UCd) and blood (BCd).The BMD of subjects living in the heavily polluted area was significantly lower than that of those living in control area in both men and women (p < 0.01). For the people living in the moderately polluted area, only the women's BMD was greatly lower compared to that in the control area (p < 0.05). The BMD declined with the increasing BCd and UCd in both sexes, especially in the highest level (BCd > 5 µg/L, UCd > 10 µg/g crea) groups (p < 0.01). It was found that there were significant differences in the prevalence of osteoporosis among the different areas (χ² = 13.046, p = 0.0003) and different UCd groups (χ² = 4.511, p = 0.0337) in women, but not in men (χ² = 0.962, p = 0.3268; χ² = 1.906, p = 0.1675). But a significant difference exists in the prevalence of osteoporosis among different BCd groups in both genders (χ² = 9.304, p = 0.00229, in women; χ² = 4603, p = 0.0319, in men). This study suggested that cadmium could play a long-term role on bone and more attention should be paid to cadmium effects on bone metabolism after reduction of exposure.     

Perfluorosulfonates and perfluorocarboxylates in snow and rain in Dalian,China

Samples of precipitation events (snow and rain) in Dalian, a typical coastal town in China, were analyzed for perfluorosulfonates (PFSAs) and perfluorocarboxylates (PFCAs) to investigate atmospheric contamination by these compounds. In the snow event on December 16, 2006, samples were collected from 21 different sites and in another 6 precipitation events, samples were collected from a single location. Four PFSAs (C4, C6, C8, C10) and seven PFCAs (C6–12) were analyzed. Among the homologues, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) concentrations were the highest with a geometric mean (GM) of 145 ng/L (n = 21) during the snow event on December 16, 2006, followed by perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) with a GM of 24.7 ng/L (n = 21). Concentrations of perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS) and perfluoroheptanoate (PFHpA) were more than two orders of magnitude lower than that of PFOS. Other PFSAs and PFCAs were found to be below the limit of detection in all the samples. In other 6 precipitation events, PFSAs and PFCAs were detected approximately in the same order of magnitude in both snow and rain. The results indicate that wet deposition may be a potential transport mechanism of perfluorinated chemicals in the environment.     

大坝拦截对河流水溶解组分化学组成的影响分析——以夏季乌江渡水库为例

以乌江渡水库为主要研究对象,揭示了大坝拦截条件下的夏季水化学特征：阴离子以HCO-3,SO2-4为主,阳离子以Ca2+,Mg2+为主,其余离子含量低于10%,说明了碳酸盐岩的风化对水体化学组成起到了主要控制作用,蒸发盐岩石的风化对水体化学组成影响较小。水库水体存在温度分层现象,形成了不同层位的水体有着不同的水化学组成,即水化学分层。水化学的分层形成了溶解组分在水库垂直深度上的规律分布,比如受藻类的影响,Si和叶绿素随深度成相反的变化特征;HCO-3受光合作用和有机质降解的影响,30 m 以上随着水深的增加而递增,30 m 以下呈现相反趋势;水库泄水方式明显改变了水化学各种参数和离子在水体中的分配。乌江水库两主要支流（息烽河和偏岩河）分别对乌江渡坝前水体中的Ca2+,SO2-4,HCO-3,Mg2+和K+,Na+,Cl-有贡献。网箱养鱼、生活污水、农业施肥、酸性矿山废水以及酸雨沉降都会对水体造成不同程度的污染。
