Effects of black carbon and montmorillonite clay on multiphasic hexachlorobenzene desorption from sediments

The desorption kinetics of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in four freshly spiked artificial sediments were determined using a polymeric adsorbent Tenax-mediated desorption. The sediments included a standard sediment (SS) prepared as per Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development 218 guidelines and three derived artificial sediments prepared by supplementing the SS sediment with various levels of black carbon (lamp black soot) and/or montmorillonite clay. The desorption kinetics exhibited biphasic behavior, i.e., a fast desorbing fraction followed by a slow desorbing fraction. The addition of either lamp black soot or montmorillonite clay resulted in the reduction of the fast desorbing fraction (Ffast) of HCB in three derived sediments compared with SS sediment. Both black carbon and montmorillonite clay treatment effects on the fast desorbing fraction were statistically significant for the four artificial sediments. The black carbon treatment (i.e., addition of 0.5% wt/wt lamp black soot) effect was an average reduction of Ffast by approximately 11%, whereas the montmorillonite treatment (i.e., addition of 15% wt/wt montmorillonite clay) effect was an average reduction of Ffast by approximately 17%. The presence of soot black carbon particles reduced the desorption rate of HCB in sediments since black carbon exhibits very high sorption capacity and extremely slow diffusion rate compared with those of the natural organic matter in sediment.     

表面活性剂淋滤对土壤中邻苯二甲酸酯纵向迁移的影响

以无表面活性剂的去离子水为对照、设置1倍(1 CMC)和2倍临界胶束浓度(2 CMC)浓度,研究了单一和混合表面活性剂,包括十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)、十二烷基苯磺酸钠(SDBS)和曲拉通X-100(TX-100)对人工污染土壤中邻苯二甲酸酯(PAEs)纵向迁移的影响,土柱中上层为PAEs污染土(3 cm),下层为清洁土(20 cm)。CTAB和SDBS在2 CMC时、TX-100为1 CMC时可增强污染土中PAEs的纵向迁移,其中DMP和DEP有无表面活性剂均可发生迁移,在相同表面活性剂条件下,延长老化时间对污染土中PAEs的迁移产生一定的影响。CTAB和SDBS在2 CMC时,清洁土中PAEs总含量较低,但TX-100在1 CMC时较低。清洁土中PAEs总含量均随土层深度的增加而降低。当老化时间较短时,土壤有机质对PAEs在清洁土柱的迁移影响较小,老化时间的延长对清洁土中的PAEs迁移影响较大。3种表面活性剂均可有效促进清洁土中DMP和DEP的迁移,CTAB和SDBS在2 CMC、TX-100在1 CMC时可促进DNBP和BBP的迁移,但3种表面活性剂对清洁土中DNOP迁移的影响较小。与单一表面活性剂相比,混合表面活性剂有助于污染土中PAEs的迁移,且随着浓度的升高,清洁土中PAEs的含量呈现降低的趋势。就整个土柱而言,单一表面活性剂CTAB和SDBS在较高浓度时、TX-100较低的浓度时对PAEs的淋滤效果更好;在较短老化时间下,土壤有机质含量的高低对淋滤率没有显著影响;老化时间延长有效降低了淋滤率;而混合表面活性剂的淋滤率有明显提高,更有助于PAEs的迁移。     

曝气＋化学絮凝法预处理环氧丙烷废水

根据环氧丙烷废水的特点,应用电化学法处理具有较高的可行性。运用电化学法处理PO废水前必须进行废水预处理,用以提高电流效率和延长极板寿命。采用曝气和化学絮凝结合的方法去除PO废水中的Ca2＋,同时去除部分COD。对曝气、无机絮凝剂（PACl、PFS）和有机絮凝剂（PAM）对PO废水处理过程中的曝气量、曝气时间、投药量、复配和沉降时间等主要影响因子进行了实验研究,通过比较Ca2＋、COD的去除效果、絮凝剂用量、沉降时间、处理成本等方面,在设定的实验参数下得到最佳预处理方案为：曝气量为2．5L／min,曝气45min,投加Na2CO3粉末24kg／t废水,充分混匀后加入PFS＋PAM复配絮凝剂。本方案具有废水处理效果好（Ca2＋的去除率为77．03％,COD的去除率为37．46％）、投药量少（（100＋7．5）g／t废水）、沉降时间短（5min）、处理成本低（0．675元／t废水）等优点。通过对比经预处理和不经预处理后电化学法对COD去除效果、电流和处理后阴极表面,验证了预处理方案的必要性与可行性。

戊吡虫胍对几种非靶标生物的急性毒性

戊吡虫胍是一种从烟碱类和缩胺脲类杀虫剂活性结构拼接而成的系列化合物中筛选出来的新型杀虫剂,目前戊吡虫胍对非靶标生物的毒性研究报道较少。为探究戊吡虫胍的环境安全性,采用生物毒性试验方法测定了其对斜生栅藻(Scenedesmus obliquus)、大型溞(Daphnia magna)、家蚕(Bombyx mori)、斑马鱼(Brachydanio rerio)、赤子爱胜蚯蚓(Eisenia fetide)、非洲爪蟾(Xenopus laevis)、赤眼蜂(Trichogramma nubilale)、意大利蜜蜂(Apis mellifera)、日本鹌鹑(Coturnix coturnix japonica)共9种非靶标生物的急性毒性。结果显示戊吡虫胍对斜生栅藻和大型溞的半数有效浓度(EC50)分别为8.79 mg·L~(-1)和10.97 mg·L~(-1),对家蚕、斑马鱼、赤子爱胜蚯蚓和非洲爪蟾的半数致死浓度(LC50)分别为2.32 mg·L~(-1)、13.74 mg·L~(-1)、100 mg·kg~(-1)和19.30mg·L~(-1),对赤眼蜂的安全系数为0.16~0.031,对蜜蜂急性触杀和急性摄入毒性分别为51.82μg·bee~(-1)和10.8×10~3mg·L~(-1),对鹌鹑的急性经口和急性饲喂毒性LC50分别为1 000 mg·kg~(-1)和2×103mg·kg~(-1)。按照最新国标(GB/T31270—2014)化学农药环境安全评价准则的毒性等级划分,戊吡虫胍除了对家蚕和赤眼蜂为高毒和极高风险外,对其余非靶生物均为低毒。     

Characterization of chlorine and heavy metals for the potential recycling of bottom ash from municipal solid waste incinerators as cement additives

Bottom ash is an inevitable by-product from municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration plants. Recycling it as additives for cement production is a promising disposal method. However, the heavy metals and chlorine are the main limiting factors because of the potential environmental risks and corrosion of cement kilns. Therefore, investigating heavy metal and chlorine characteristics of bottom ash is the significant prerequisite of its reuse in cement industries. In this study, a correlative analysis was conducted to evaluate the effect of the MSW components and collection mode on the heavy metal and chlorine characteristics in bottom ash. The chemical speciation of insoluble chlorine was also investigated by synchrotron X-ray diffraction analysis. The results showed that industrial waste was the main source of heavy metals, especially Cr and Pb, in bottom ash. The higher contents of plastics and kitchen waste lead to the higher chlorine level (0.6 wt.%–0.7 wt.%) of the bottom ash. The insoluble chlorine in the MSW incineration bottom ash existed primarily as AlOCl, which was produced under the high temperature (1250°C) in incinerators.

Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations on the bioaccumulation of polybrominated diphenyl ethers by Prorocentrum donghaiense

The growth, cellular total lipids, bioaccumulation amount, and bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) of 2,4,4 ′ -tribromodiphenyl ether (BDE28), 2,2 ′ ,4,4 ′ -tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE47), and 2,2 ′ ,4,4 ′ ,5-pentabromodiphenyl ether (BDE99) in a semi-continuous culture of Prorocentrum donghaiense were studied in relation to nitrate (0, 128, and 512 μmol/L) and phosphate (0, 8, and 32 μmol/L) concentrations. The BDE28, BDE47, and BDE99 content per cell under 0 μmol N/L were 3.77 × 10 6 , 3.95 × 10 6 , and 4.32 × 10 6 ng/cell, respectively, which were significantly higher than those under 128 and 512 μmol N/L. A nearly 5-fold increase in polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) content per algal cell was found between 0 and 8 μmol P/L and between 8 and 32 μmol P/L. With increasing N and P concentrations, the PBDE content per volume of algal culture and the accumulation percentage of available PBDEs declined slightly. The BAFs for the PBDEs based on lipids showed that the logBAF lip under 0 μmol N/L was higher than those under 128 and 512 μmol N/L. The logBAF lip under 0 μmol P/L was higher than that under 8 μmol P/L but lower than that under 32 μmol P/L. Correlation analysis indicated a significant negative correlation between nutrient concentration and cellular total lipids, as well as the PBDE content per cell. The results indicate that different N and P concentrations change the total lipids content of P. donghaiense, thereby resulting in varying PBDE accumulation.
