Review on China’s wind power policy (1986–2017)

As an important renewable energy source, wind power plays a key role in mitigating climate change and has become one of the fastest growing clean energies globally. In China, wind energy development has been a vital component of national energy transformation strategy. Over the years, the Chinese government has introduced a series of policies to promote the development of wind power and also to regulate this emerging industry. Base on examining all the key policy documents on wind power issued by the Chinese government over the last 30 years, we find that China has built up a comprehensive policy system, and summarized the current framework of Chinese wind power policy systematically. Then, we analyze the policy objectives, policy tools, major measures, their results in each development stage, and the characteristics and trends of China’s wind power policies. Finally, we discuss the limitations of the current policy and put forward corresponding suggestions.

基于粒间接触关系的饱和砂土液化特性研究∗

为了研究饱和砂土的液化机理,通过等体积加载的方式建立了循环荷载下饱和砂土动力响应的颗粒流计算模型,研究了饱和砂土在不同围压和加载幅值下的动力响应,探讨了颗粒间力链的发展特性,并从Shannon 熵、Boltzmann 熵以及Clausius 熵的基本关系入手,建立基于粒间接触力链的饱和砂土颗粒熵计算方法,分析了颗粒熵发展特性。结果表明：饱和砂土初始总力链主要受围压的影响,围压越大,初始总力链越多;循环荷载下饱和砂土颗粒间力链总数逐渐降低,且强力链持续向中、弱力链转换;循环荷载下饱和砂土颗粒熵表现出先升高后降低的二阶段特性,围压和加载幅值对颗粒熵峰值无明显影响,各工况的颗粒熵峰值均为0.92;定义颗粒熵峰值为相变颗粒熵,相变颗粒熵时的饱和砂土表现出固液临界态的力学特征,指示了饱和砂土由固态向往返液化状态转变的临界点。     

Toward better understanding and feasibility of controlling greenhouse gas emissions from treatment of industrial wastewater with activated sludge

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been recognized as important sources for anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. The objective of the study was to thoroughly investigate a typical industrial WWTP in southern Taiwan in winter and summer which possesses the emission factors close to those reported values, with the analyses of emission factors, mass fluxes, fugacity, lab-scale in situ experiments, and impact assessment. The activated sludge was the important source in winter and summer, and nitrous oxide (N₂O) was the main contributor (e.g., 57 to 91 % of total GHG emission in a unit of kg carbon dioxide-equivalent/kg chemical oxygen demand). Albeit important for the GHGs in the atmosphere, the fractional contribution of the GHG emission to the carbon or nitrogen removal in wastewater treatment was negligible (e.g., less than 1.5 %). In comparison with the sludge concentration or retention time, adjusting the aeration rate was more effective to diminish the GHG emission in the activated sludge without significantly affecting the treated water quality. When the aeration rate in the activated sludge simulation was reduced by 75 %, the mass flux of N₂O could be diminished by up to 53 % (from 9.6 to 4.5 mg/m²-day). The total emission in the WWTP (including carbon dioxide, methane, and N₂O) would decrease by 46 % (from 0.67 to 0.36 kg CO₂-equiv/kg COD). However, the more important benefit of changing the aeration rate was lowering the energy consumption in operation of the WWTP, as the fractional contribution of pumping to the total emission from the WWTP ranged from 46 to 93 % within the range of the aeration rate tested. Under the circumstance in which reducing the burden of climate change is a global campaign, the findings provide insight regarding the GHG emission from treatment of industrial wastewater and the associated impact on the treatment performance and possible mitigation strategies by operational modifications.
