不确定性模糊多目标模型在生态城市水资源配置中的应用

针对生态城市水资源配置的不确定性、模糊、多目标特点,建立了基于不确定性基本理论的不确定性模糊多目标(IFMOP)水资源配置模型.该模型改变了以往按照确定性目标进行优化的思路,用区间参数的方法将现实中的不确定因素表现为区间形式,将各变量在区间内组合求解,并且通过决策者与模型的交互,用MATLAB软件编程求解,很好地体现了实际决策过程.通过采用华北某市新区水资源数据进行优化配置实例验证,得到了较为合理的2020年水资源优化配置方案.     

基于DOC+CDPF后处理技术的公交车实际道路颗粒物排放特性

利用车载排放测试系统,对柴油公交车安装氧化催化转化器(DOC)+催化型颗粒捕集器(CDPF)前后的实际道路工况颗粒物排放特性进行了研究。安装DOC+CDPF前后,稳态工况下,颗粒物数量排放(PN)、质量排放(PM)分别在车速为25,30 km/h降幅最大;瞬态工况下,随着加速度的增加,PN、PM排放率降幅逐渐增大;颗粒粒径分布规律不同,安装前呈单峰或双峰分布,而安装后呈三峰分布,粒径124.1 nm左右降幅最大。     

Effects of photodegradation of dissolved organic matter on the binding of benzo(a)pyrene

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in natural waters can bind various organic pollutants, and the affinity of this binding is strongly influenced by the chemical characteristics of the DOM and water pH. This study examined the effects of photochemically induced alteration of the DOM's chemical properties and water pH on the binding of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP). Time- and pH-series of solar-simulated irradiations were performed on a natural water sample and aqueous DOM solutions prepared from aquatic and soil humic substances. The binding affinity of BaP, expressed as a partition coefficient of a compound to DOM, decreased substantially after the DOM samples were irradiated over environmentally relevant radiation doses and pH ranges. The lowering of the pH due to the photoproduction of acidic products often partly offsets the reduction of the binding affinity caused by direct photoalteration of the DOM's chemical structure. The decrease of the binding affinity, after correction for the photoinduced pH change, was positively correlated with the decrease in the molecular weight and the aromaticity of the DOM in the course of irradiation. Increasing O(2) abundance accelerated the decrease of the binding affinity as a result of enhanced DOM photodegradation. Visible light played a more important role in reducing the molecular weight and aromaticity of the DOM than in reducing the content of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) via photoremineralization while the reverse was true for UV radiation, indicating that photochemical reduction of the binding affinity may occur in natural waters at depths greater than UV radiation can reach. A decrease of the affinity of DOM for binding BaP will increase the free dissolved fraction of BaP and thus its availability and toxicity to aquatic organisms. The results from this study may have similar implications for organic pollutants other than BaP.     

Emission reduction characteristics of a catalyzed continuously regenerating trap after-treatment system and its durability performance

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a catalyzed continuously regenerating trap(CCRT)system composed of a diesel oxidation catalyst(DOC)and a catalyzed diesel particulate filter(CDPF)on the main gaseous and particulate emissions from an urban diesel bus,as well as the durability performance of the CCRT system.Experiments were conducted based on a heavy chassis dynamometer,and a laboratory activity test as well as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)test were applied to evaluate the changes of the aged CCRT catalyst.Results showed that the CCRT could reduce the CO by 71.5%and the total hydrocarbons(THC)by 88.9%,and meanwhile promote the oxidation of NO.However,the conversion rates for CO and THC dropped to 25.1%and 55.1%,respectively,after the CCRT was used for one year(～60,000 km),and the NO oxidation was also weakened.For particulate emissions,the CCRT could reduce 97.4%of the particle mass(PM)and almost 100%of the particle number(PN).The aging of the CCRT resulted in a reduced PM trapping efficiency but had no observable effect on the PN;however,it increased the proportion of nucleation mode particles.The activity test results indicated that the deterioration of the CCRT was directly relevant to the increase in the light-off temperatures of the catalyst for CO,C_3H_8 and NO_2.In addition,the decreased concentrations of the active components Pt~(2+) and Pt~(4+) in the catalyst are also important factors in the CCRT deterioration.
