Effects of atmospheric gases on terrestrial plants and critical levels of air pollution

An integrated approach was developed to determine the critical levels of air pollution for ecological standard setting based on the unified index of biological response, by taking into account the effects of all pollution components simultaneously. An empirical model of plant productivity was taken as the dose response model for gaseous pollutant effect on the productivity of trees and the annual productivity of plants was used as the above mentioned index. The CO2 increase in the lower atmosphere was considered to potentially increase plant productivity and NO2 was estimated as neutral while being dangerous for plants as a chemical precursor of ozone or as a source of acidification. The maximum permissible chronic O3 and SO2 levels for trees were estimated and it was found that O3 is much more phytotoxic, as compared to SO2 , with a rather narrow range of permissible levels (27-33 ppb) which complicates its monitoring and control.

杂多化合物脱硫化氢动力学研究

在双搅拌、无浓度梯度气液反应器中考察了磷钼杂多化合物吸收H2S过程的宏观动力学行为.结果表明,吸收剂浓度提高,脱硫效果增强,当磷钼酸钠浓度超过6.25×10-3mol/L后,单一与复配体系对H2S的吸收速率均趋恒定.从工业操作角度来看,6.25×10-3mol/L是适宜的操作浓度温度提高,吸收效果略有降低,但变化幅度不大,实际操作温度可选择常温;进气H2S浓度提高,吸收效果增强.两种脱硫体系中,以复配体系脱硫性能为优.实验测得25℃下反应器中H2S的气、液相传质系数分别为:kGH-2S =8.201×10-10kmol/(m2.s.Pa),kLH-2S=3.440×10-4m/s.吸收反应对磷钼酸钠及硫化氢的反应级数分别为0.339与1.055.     

First observation of different diffusion coefficients for two conformers in a neat liquid

 Self-diffusion coefficients were studied for the highly polar liquid N-methylformamide at pressures up to 200 MPa between the melting pressure curves and 420 K by the spin-echo method. N-Methylformamide exists as a mixture of two conformers in the neat liquid. These conformers have large differences at lower temperatures in their dynamic and structural properties. The self-diffusion coefficient of the cis-conformer being 17% lower than that of the trans-conformer at the same T and p. This is the first observation of such an effect. The experimental study is supported by Monte Carlo (MC) calculations which show that the first neighbors around a cis conformer are arranged differently than in an all trans liquid. The difference leads in the simulations to a much lower dielectric constant for the trans-cis mixture and might also explain the retardation of diffusion for the cis conformer.
