电化学脱稳技术处理油田含聚污水

采用"电化学除油器—斜板除油器—核桃壳过滤器"模拟装置处理模拟含聚采油污水,考察了有/无清水剂加入条件下含聚污水的处理效果,并对电化学除油机理进行了分析。实验结果表明:各级处理单元的除油率与电化学处理时间成正比,不加入清水剂、电化学处理40 min时,各级处理单元的除油率均超过92%;在电化学除油器前加入清水剂100 mg/L、电化学处理20 min时,各级处理单元的除油率分别为98.8%~99.4%,处理后污水含油量小于30 mg/L,处理效果优于在斜板除油器前加入清水剂;电化学处理与清水剂处理有良好的协同除油效果,可大幅降低清水剂用量。机理分析结果表明,电化学作用主要使吸附于油-水界面的产出聚合物降解、脱稳,实现了对油-水界面膜强度和界面电荷的有效破坏,除油效果优异且处理后的絮体松散、无黏附性。

Elevated urbanization-driven plant accumulation and human intake risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in crops of peri-urban farmlands

As an ubiquitous carcinogen, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are closely related to anthropogenic activities. The process of urbanization leads to the spatial interlacing of farmlands and urbanized zones. However, field evidence on the influence of urbanization on the accumulation of PAHs in crops of peri-urban farmlands is lacking. This study comparatively investigated the urbanization-driven levels, compositions, and sources of PAHs in 120 paired plant and soil samples collected from the Yangtze River Delta in China and their species-specific human intake risks. The concentrations of PAHs in crops and soils in the peri-urban areas were 2407.92 ng g^?1 and 546.64 ng g^?1, respectively, which are significantly higher than those in the rural areas. The PAHs in the root were highly relevant to those in the soils (R²?=?0.63, p?<?0.01), and the root bioconcentration factors were higher than 1.0, implying the contributions of root uptake to plant accumulations. However, the translocation factors in the peri-urban areas (1.57?±?0.33) were higher than those in the rural areas (1.19?±?0.14), indicating the enhanced influence through gaseous absorption. For the congeners, the 2- to 3-ring PAHs showed a higher plant accumulation potential than the 4- to 6-ring PAHs. Principal component analysis show that the PAHs in the peri-urban plants predominantly resulted from urbanization parameters, such as coal combustion, vehicle emissions, and biomass burning. The mean values of estimated dietary intake of PAHs from the consumption of peri-urban and rural crops were 9116 ng day^?1 and 6601.83 ng day^?1, respectively. The intake risks of different crops followed the order rice?>?cabbage?>?carrot?>?pea. Given the significant input of PAHs from urban to farmland, the influence of many anthropogenic pollutants arising from rapid urbanization should be considered when assessing the agricultural food safety.
