Three-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model for TMDL development of Lake Fuxian, China

Lake Fuxian is the largest deep freshwater lake in China. Although its average water quality meets Class I of the China National Water Quality Standard (CNWQS), i.e., GB3838-2002, monitoring data indicate that the water quality approaches the Class II threshold in some areas. Thus it is urgent to reduce the watershed load through the total maximum daily load (TMDL) program. A three-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model was developed for Lake Fuxian, simulating flow circulation and pollutant fate and transport. The model development process consists of several steps, including grid generation, initial and boundary condition configurations, and model calibration processes. The model accurately reproduced the observed water surface elevation, spatiotemporal variations in temperature, and total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentrations, suggesting a reasonable numerical representation of the prototype system for further TMDL analyses. The TMDL was calculated using two interpretations of the water quality standards for Class I of the CNWQS based on the maximum instantaneous surface and annual average surface water concentrations. Analysis of the first scenario indicated that the TN, TP and COD loads should be reduced by 66%, 68% and 57%, respectively. Water quality was the highest priority; however, local economic development and cost feasibility for load reduction can pose significant issues. In the second interpretation, the model results showed that, under the existing conditions, the average water quality meets the Class I standard and therefore load reduction is unnecessary. Future studies are needed to conduct risk and cost assessments for realistic decision-making.     

Aerosol structure and vertical distribution in a multi-source dust region

The vertical distribution of aerosols was directly observed under various atmospheric conditions in the free troposphere using surface micro-pulse lidar (MPL4) at the Zhangye Station (39.08°N, 100.27°E) in western China in the spring of 2008. The study shows that the aerosol distribution over Zhangye can be vertically classified into upper, middle and lower layers with altitudes of 4.5 to 9 km, 2.5 to 4.5 km, and less than 2.5 km, respectively. The aerosol in the upper layer originated from the external sources at higher altitude regions, from far desert regions upwind of Zhangye or transported from higher atmospheric layers by free convection, and the altitude of this aerosol layer decreased with time; the aerosols in the middle and lower layers originated from both external and local sources. The aerosol extinction coefficients in the upper and lower layers decreased with altitude, whereas the coefficient in the middle layer changed only slightly, which suggests that aerosol mixing occurs in the middle layer. The distribution of aerosols with altitude has three features: a single peak that forms under stable atmospheric conditions, an exponential decrease with altitude that occurs under unstable atmospheric conditions, and slight change in the mixed layer. Due to the impact of the top of the atmospheric boundary layer, the diurnal variation in the aerosol extinction coefficient has a single peak, which is higher in the afternoon and lower in the morning.     

五羰基铁对正辛硫醇中硫的脱除研究

由于能源化石类燃料中均包含不同含量的硫化物,随着人类对这些能源的不断利用,引发的环境污染等问题日趋严重。利用五羰基铁(Fe(CO)5)分解条件温和可控,产物无杂质,分解后的Fe0可以与硫原子原位键合等特点。文章尝试采用Fe(CO)5作为脱硫剂在温和条件下进行脱除正辛硫醇的研究。实验结果表明:随着压强(101~5 067 kPa)、Fe(CO)5加入量(50~250μL)、时间(1~6 h)和温度(0~180℃)的不同,Fe(CO)5脱硫效率具有明显差异,在此基础上得到最佳脱硫条件及最高脱除效率:常压、Fe(CO)5加入量200μL(1.4 mmol)、t=2h和T=140℃时,达到最高硫容3 450 mg/L。分别采用IR、XPS手段对脱硫反应机理进行了探索。IR结果表明:在1 084 cm-1处为硫氧峰,在797 cm-1归属为铁氧峰。XPS结果表明:167.8 eV处可能为S4+,711.6 eV处可能为Fe3+。因此,正辛硫醇脱除的可能机理为巯基断裂,并在空气中与氧结合,最终形成S4+,而Fe(CO)5的Fe经过脱硫之后,在空气中不稳定,最终被氧化成Fe3+。

阴离子粘土(LDH)对DNA吸附行为的研究

以4种阴离子粘土做吸附剂,研究了阴离子粘土对DNA的吸附行为.同时,采用XRD、FTIR、UV-vis等表征手段对吸附前后的材料进行研究.吸附结果显示,二元阴离子粘土对DNA的吸附量高于三元阴离子粘土;3:1型阴离子粘土对DNA吸附力强于2:1型阴离子粘土.4种材料对DNA的吸附均符合Langmuir、Freundlich两种吸附等温模型,且Langmuir吸附等温模型拟合度更高,说明阴离子粘土对DNA的吸附为单层吸附.XRD结果显示,吸附前后阴离子粘土基本结构并未发生改变,晶形完好,层间距未有明显变化,表明阴离子粘土对DNA的吸附仅发生在表面,DNA并未进入阴离子粘土层间结构中.UV-vis及电泳结果显示,吸附前后DNA的构型并未发生改变,阴离子粘土的吸附并未对DNA产生较大的影响.     

调水工程生态补偿的分阶段推进战略

水质安全是调水工程顺利实施的关键,为此调水区背负巨大的调水工程的外部经济成本和社会发展代价,必须通过生态补偿政策进行内部化,然而调水工程涉及的范围广、时间长、利益主体多、资金投入大,难以通过一种手段或者现有某种方式建立长效的生态补偿机制。文章从调水工程生态补偿政策建立的目标、标准、责任分担与利益共享、补偿方式角度分析了生态补偿现状及存在的问题,提出了调水工程生态补偿的分阶段推进战略总体思路与实施构想,重点分析了各阶段生态补偿政策的制定标准和要求,为中线调水工程生态补偿政策制定提供了技术支持。     

生物阳极及其反转为生物阴极降解氯霉素

为了探讨生物阳极能否降解氯霉素以及生物阳极反转为生物阴极后能否替代生物阴极,通过驯化生物阳极降解氯霉素和生物阳极反转为生物阴极的实验,表明生物阳极经过长期氯霉素浓度梯度增加(5~80 mg·L-1)的驯化,具有较好产电能力的同时,对氯霉素也具有一定的降解能力(k=0.098 5).生物阳极反转为生物阴极后并将电位恒定在-0.40 V vs.SHE时,该生物阴极相对于反转前生物阳极的电位(-0.20 V vs.SHE)有了明显的降低,导致微生物活性受到一定的影响,但阴极生物膜仍具有较强的催化降解氯霉素的能力,其还原降解速率常数k为0.264 3,明显高于非生物阴极对照(k=0.160 9).生物阳极反转生物阴极的模式不仅实现了氯霉素的硝基还原,而且发生了芳香胺产物侧链的完全脱氯和羰基还原反应.     

长江三角洲地区基于喷涂工艺的溶剂源VOCs排放特征

了解挥发性有机物(volatile organic compounds,VOCs)的溶剂源排放特征是制定长江三角洲地区PM2.5和臭氧防控策略的关键.本研究通过罐采样-GC-MS/FID测定了长江三角洲地区重点喷涂行业(集装箱喷涂、造船喷涂、木器喷涂和汽车喷涂业)的VOCs排放特征.结果表明,长江三角洲地区喷涂行业排放的主要VOCs组分为甲苯、二甲苯、乙苯等芳香烃类物质,三者之和占总VOCs的质量分数为79%~99%.生产工艺的不同对VOCs的排放组成影响并不大,废气处理装置中活性炭吸附对VOCs的组成并无明显影响,而催化燃烧的处理过程会使VOCs的排放组成产生显著变化,乙烯排放明显增大,同时也使得催化燃烧处理最大增量反应活性(maximum increment reactivity,MIR)值高于活性炭吸附处理后的MIR值,说明不同的处理措施的使用将影响VOCs对臭氧的生成作用.
