Quantification of energy related industrial eco-efficiency of China

Improving eco-efficiency is propitious for saving resources and reducing emissions, and has become a popular route to sustainable development. We define two energy-related eco-efficiencies: energy efficiency (ENE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission-related eco-efficiency (GEE) using energy consumption and the associated GHG emissions as the environmental impacts. Using statistical data, we analyze China??s energy consumption and GHG emissions by industrial subsystem and sector, and estimate the ENE and GEE values for China in 2007 as 4.871×10⁷ US$/PJ and 4.26×10⁸ US$/TgCO₂eq, respectively. Industry is the primary contributing subsystem of China??s economy, contributing 45.2% to the total economic production, using 79.6% of the energy consumed, and generating 91.4% of the total GHG emissions. We distinguish the individual contributions of the 39 industrial sectors to the national economy, overall energy consumption, and GHG emissions, and estimate their energyrelated eco-efficiencies. The results show that although ferrous metal production contributes only 3.5% to the national industrial economy, it consumes the most industrial energy (20% of total), contributes 16% to the total industrial global warming potential (GWP), and ranks third in GHG emissions. The power and heat sector ranks first in GHG emissions and contributes one-third of the total industrial GWP, although it only consumes about 8% of total industrial energy and, like ferrous metal production, contributes 3.5% to the national economy. The ENE of the ferrous metal and power and heat sectors are only 8 and 2.1×10⁷ US$/PJ, while the GEE for these two sectors are 9 and 4×10⁴ US$/GgCO₂eq, respectively; these are nearly the lowest ENE and GEE values among all 39 industry sectors. Finally, we discuss the possibility of ecoefficiency improvement through a comparison with other countries.     

植物碳酸酐酶对岩溶作用的影响及其生态效应

广泛存在各种类型生物细胞中的碳酸酐酶（cA）,通过催化C02和HCO3^-之间的相互转化,驱动岩溶过程。文章通过分析我国西南典型岩溶区植物叶片和根系CA活性,探讨其与岩溶作用的相互关系,结果表明：岩溶生态系统中植物的碳酸酐酶活性差异较大,并在植物的生长期发生变动,植株根系CA活性〉成熟叶片CA活性,因而在土壤水分充足的条件下．根系分泌的CA催化CO2＋H2O←→HCO3^-＋H^＋过程,促进石灰岩溶解,加快成土速率,并通过固定根呼吸和土壤微生物分解所释放的CO2产生岩溶碳汇效应;非岩溶生态系统由于土壤碳酸钙含量低,造成植物根系CA表达活性较低。     

基于本体的突发事件应急决策知识模型研究

应急决策是突发公共事件应急管理过程中最为关键的环节.目前应急决策主要依赖事先制定的应急预案,这种方法比较全面、规范,但缺乏灵活性.针对这一问题,引入本体论的概念,将突发事件应急决策相关的知识整合为领域本体,并借助语义检索技术,实现应急决策相关知识的查询和推理.最后利用Java Web相关技术,开发了一个应急决策知识模型的原型系统.该系统摆脱了应急预案等静态文本的固定格式,更强调概念和概念间的关系,比传统的应急预案更为灵活.

An unusual high ozone event over the North and Northeast China during the record-breaking summer in 2018

Under the background of global warming, the summer temperature of the North and Northeast China (NNEC) has significantly increased since 2017, which was accompanied by the aggravated ozone (O₃) pollution. In 2018, the NNEC experienced a record-breaking summer of the past 40 years. Influenced by the abnormal high temperatures, a regional ozone event occurred on 2-3 August, over 63% of 79 selected cities in the NNEC were exposed to O₃ pollution, and the maximum value of MDA8 O₃ reached 268 μg/m³. Observations indicated that ozone concentrations agree well with the maximum temperature at 2 meters (MT2M) over NNEC with a correlation coefficient of 0.69. During the pollution episode, strong downdraft in the local high (35°N-42.5°N, 112.5°E-132.5°E; LH) over the NNEC created the favourable meteorological conditions for O₃ formation. By analyzing the horizontal wind and wave activity fluxes (WAFs) at 200 hPa, we found that the LH formation was resulted from the Rossby wave propagation from upstream along the mid-latitude Asian jet. The split polar vortex intrusion further strengthened the amplitude of the Rossby wave and reinforced the LH. Moreover, a secondary circulation between Typhoon Jongdari and the LH contributed to the enhanced LH with strong subsidence. On the other hand, the stratospheric intrusions under the deep subsidence also contributed to the enhanced surface O₃. In this study, the deep-seated meteorological dynamical mechanisms contributing to the abnormal high temperatures were investigated, which can lead to a better understanding of the regional O₃ pollution over NNEC under the global-warming background.

酸化油水解废水脱酸处理工艺研究

酸化油是生产生物柴油的原料,其生产过程中产生的水解废水有机物含量高且具有强酸性,直接排放会严重污染环境。因此,对酸化油水解废水处理工艺进行研究有重要意义。通过对酸化油水解废水脱酸处理的条件及影响因素进行研究,并通过L9(34)正交实验确定了脱酸的最佳工艺条件。pH值为10,搅拌时间为15 min,温度为30℃是脱酸处理的最佳条件。
