Crystallization and Mechanical Properties of Recycled Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Toughened by Styrene–Ethylene/Butylenes–Styrene Elastomer

Recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (R-PET) was blended with 15–30 wt% of styrene–ethylene/butylenes–styrene (SEBS) block copolymer and maleic anhydride grafted SEBS (SEBS-g-MA). Effects of nucleation and toughening of the elastomers were evaluated systematically by study of morphology, crystallization, thermal and mechanical properties of the blend. The addition of 30 wt% SEBS promoted the formation of co-continuous structure of the blend and caused the fracture mechanism to change from strain softening to strain hardening. Addition of SEBS-g-MA resulted in significant modification of phase morphology and obviously improved the impact strength. The compatibilization reaction of PET with SEBS-g-MA accelerated the crystallization of PET and increased the crystallinity. The shifts in glass transition temperature of PET towards that of SEBS-g-MA and the higher modulus for R-PET/SEBS-g-MA (70/30) blend found by DMA are also indications of better interactions under the conditions of compatibilization and interpenetrating structure.     

Dynamics of the buoyant plume off the Pearl River Estuary in summer

Field measurements of salinity, wind and river discharge and numerical simulations of hydrodynamics from 1978 to 1984 are used to investigate the dynamics of the buoyant plume off the Pearl River Estuary (PRE), China during summer. The studies have shown that there are four major horizontal buoyant plume types in summer: Offshore Bulge Spreading (Type I), West Alongshore Spreading (Type II), East Offshore Spreading (Type III), and Symmetrical Alongshore Spreading (Type IV). River mouth conditions, winds and ambient coastal currents have inter-influences to the transport processes of the buoyant plume. It is found that all of the four types are surface-advected plumes by analysing the vertical characteristic of the plumes, and the monthly variations of the river discharge affect the plume size dominantly. The correlation coefficient between the PRE plume size and the river discharge reaches 0.85 during the high river discharge season. A wind strength index has been introduced to examine the wind effect. It is confirmed that winds play a significant role in forming the plume morphology. The alongshore wind stress and the coastal currents determine the alongshore plume spreading. The impact of the ambient currents such as Dongsha Current and South China Sea (SCS) Warm Current on the plume off the shelf has also assessed. The present study has demonstrated that both the river discharge and wind conditions affect the plume evolution.

Chromatographic partitioning of impurities (H2S) contained in a CO2 stream injected into a deep saline aquifer: Part 2. Effects of flow conditions

Laboratory experiments reported in a companion paper were carried out to examine the chromatographic partitioning of impurities contained in a stream of CO₂ injected into a deep saline aquifer. The solubility of the impurity gas in the CO₂ stream compared to that of CO₂, the in situ conditions of pressure, temperature and water salinity, and the concentration of the impurity gas affect the partitioning of the two gases. For CO₂ streams containing H₂S, numerical simulations reported here have successfully replicated the laboratory results including the breakthrough of CO₂ ahead of H₂S. Sensitivity analysis performed with the numerical model has shown that flow conditions, controlled by such parameters as medium permeability, pressure gradient, dispersion, gas mobility and flow direction, affect the breakthrough time and separation of the two gases, leading to delayed or earlier breakthrough, and increasing or decreasing the time lag between the breakthrough of the two gases. Vertical bottom-up flow leads to earlier breakthrough, while top-down flow leads to delayed breakthrough. These results are important in establishing monitoring strategies at CO₂ storage sites and in evaluating the risks associated with the possible leakage of injected CO₂ that contains impurities.     

Mercury pollution in a mining area of Guizhou,China: Fluxes over contaminated surfaces and concentrations in air,biological and geological samples

A dynamic flux chamber has been used to estimate fluxes of mercury over different types of surfaces in an abandoned open‐cut mine of Tongren prefecture, Guizhou province, China during spring and summer of 1996. The highest fluxes were obtained over cinnabar slag and contaminated soils, whereas the emissions above cinnabar ore were substantially lower. These fluxes was scaled up to estimate the contribution of mercury emissions to air from mercury wastes, compared to anthropogenic activities in the province of Guizhou, China. Atmospheric mercury concentrations measured were enhanced in the mining area (<1.3 μg m^‐3) compared to regional background sites (1.8–5.1 ng m^‐3). The spreading of mercury was estimated by using biological and geological samples. Moss bags have been employed to estimate long‐time dry‐ and wet‐deposition to this area.     

Nitrogen impacts on atrazine-degrading Arthrobacter strain and bacterial community structure in soil microcosms

The objective of this study was to investigate the impacts of exogenous nitrogen on a microbial community inoculated with the atrazine-degrading Arthrobacter sp. in soil amended with a high concentration of atrazine. Inoculated and uninoculated microcosms for biodegradation tests were constructed. Atrazine degradation capacity of the strain DAT1 and the strain's atrazine-metabolic potential and survival were assessed. The relative abundance of the strain DAT1 and the bacterial community structure in soils were characterized using quantitative PCR in combination with terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism. Atrazine degradation by the strain DAT1 and the strain's atrazine-metabolic potential and survival were not affected by addition of a medium level of nitrate, but these processes were inhibited by addition of a high level of nitrate. Microbial community structure changed in both inoculated and uninoculated microcosms, dependent on the level of added nitrate. Bioaugmentation with the strain DAT1 could be a very efficient biotechnology for bioremediation of soils with high concentrations of atrazine.     

土壤中三聚氰胺的降解动态与两种蔬菜的吸收效应研究

以青菜和马铃薯为供试蔬菜,在建立蔬菜中三聚氰胺液相色谱串联质谱(LC-MS-MS)测定方法的基础上,采用N15同位素稀释法,通过在土壤中添加三聚氰胺进行盆栽试验,研究了三聚氰胺在土壤中的降解动态及两种蔬菜的吸收效应.结果表明,土壤中三聚氰胺降解速率随着土壤中三聚氰胺质量比的增加而变慢,20d以后,降解曲线平缓,速度缓慢,残留时间延长,其降解动态符合Logistic方程.同位素稀释法证实两种蔬菜均可以吸收土壤中的三聚氰胺.当土壤中含有50 mg/kg和100 mg/kg三聚氰胺时,马铃薯的吸收量分别比青菜高4.4和2.1倍.青菜根部对三聚氰胺的吸收高于茎叶.高质量比三聚氰胺对蔬菜生长具有明显的抑制效应.
