Design and demonstration of a next-generation air quality attainment assessment system for PM2.5 and O3

Due to the increasingly stringent standards, it is important to assess whether the proposed emission reduction will result in ambient concentrations that meet the standards. The Software for Model Attainment Test—Community Edition (SMAT-CE) is developed for demonstrating attainment of air quality standards of O₃ and PM_2.5. SMAT-CE improves computational efficiency and provides a number of advanced visualization and analytical functionalities on an integrated GIS platform. SMAT-CE incorporates historical measurements of air quality parameters and simulated air pollutant concentrations under a number of emission inventory scenarios to project the level of compliance to air quality standards in a targeted future year. An application case study of the software based on the U.S. National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) shows that SMAT-CE is capable of demonstrating the air quality attainment of annual PM_2.5 and 8-hour O₃ for a proposed emission control policy.     

昆山市大气 PM 2．5中无机元素污染特征研究

应用SEM－EDS结合XRF法测定了2013年8月－2014年5月昆山市7个不同地区大气PM2．5中无机元素的污染水平。研究发现,昆山地区一共可检出40种无机元素,其中主要的22种元素浓度范围在3.02～1113 ng／m3之间,合计为3784 ng／m3;PM2．5中无机元素季节变化明显,呈现春秋季高,夏冬季低的变化特点。无机元素的空间变化不大。通过富集因子的研究,Sc、Ni、Cu、Zn、As、Br、Cd、Pb、Se、Ag、Sn、Sb和Tl等13种元素EF＞10,富集程度非常高,说明人类活动对这些元素的贡献较大。     

基层环境监测分析能力的思考

随着可持续发展理念的深入,环境保护日益成为人们关注的焦点问题。当前国家对于基层环境保护重视程度越来越高,基层环境监测分析能力的提升也逐渐成为当务之急。基层环境监测站当前由于资金条件等因素的限制还存在着一些问题,监测分析能力不足是一个典型问题。在今后工作过程中应该不断提升基层环境监测分析能力。本文将重点探讨如何提升这一能力。     

Occurrence and removal of six pharmaceuticals and personal care products in a wastewater treatment plant employing anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic and UV processes in Shanghai,China

The occurrence and removal of six pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) including caffeine (CF), N, N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET), carbamazepine, metoprolol, trimethoprim (TMP), and sulpiride in a municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Shanghai, China were studied in January 2013; besides, grab samples of the influent were also taken every 6 h, to investigate the daily fluctuation of the wastewater influent. The results showed the concentrations of the investigated PPCPs ranged from 17 to 11,400 ng/L in the WWTP. A low variability of the PPCP concentrations in the wastewater influent throughout the day was observed, with the relative standard deviations less than 25 % for most samples. However, for TMP and CF, the slight daily fluctuation still reflected their consumption patterns. All the target compounds except CF and DEET, exhibited poor removal efficiencies (<40 %) by biological treatment process, probably due to the low temperature in the bioreactor, which was unfavorable for activated sludge. While for the two biodegradable PPCPs, CF, and DEET, the anaerobic and oxic tank made contributions to their removal while the anoxic tank had a negative effect to their elimination. The tertiary UV treatment removed the investigated PPCPs by 5–38 %, representing a crucial polishing step to compensate for the poor removal by the biologic treatment process in winter.     

Distribution characteristics and indicator significance of Dechloranes in multi-matrices at Ny-lesund in the Arctic

In recent years, Dechloranes have been widely detected in the environment around the world.However, understanding and knowledge of Dechloranes in remote regions, such as the Arctic,remain lacking. Therefore, the concentrations of 5 Dechloranes in surface seawater, sediment,soil, moss, and dung collected from Ny-lesund in the Arctic were measured with the concentrations 93 pg/L, 342, 325, 1.4, and 258 pg/g, respectively, which were much lower than those in Asian and European regions. The mean ratios of anti-Dechlorane Plus(DP) to total DP(fanti) in seawater, sediment, soil, moss, dung, and atmospheric samples were 0.36, 0.21, 0.18,0.27, 0.66, and 0.43, respectively. Results suggested that the main source of DP in seawater,sediment, soil, and moss was long-range atmospheric transport. However, the ratio identified in dung was different, for which the migration behavior of the organism is probably the main source of DP.     

遥测台网尾波持续时间震级公式探讨

本文用回归方法探讨建立用尾波持续时间τ确定震级的经验公式,以安徽省无线遥测台网的资料为例用lg~aτ和震中距Δ作为自变量,选择较佳形式。本文比较了使用τ的平均值(?)和各台各自持续时间的方法,也考虑了台站的校正值问题,最后提出了适合安徽台网的公式。M_D=0. 573lg~2τ+0. 00025Δ+0. 581+δ_i
