During the excavation of high gas mine, gas and dust often exist at the same time. In order to ensure that the gas concentration remains within a safe range and minimize the risk of workers’ pneumoconiosis, we simulated the interaction mechanism of airflow, gas, and dust, explored the pollution law of gas and dust, and obtained the optimal purification distance (Lp) by the CFD method. The reliability of the numerical simulation was verified by field measurements. Firstly, the properties of the gas and dust affected the structure of the airflow field. At the same time, the change in the airflow field affected the concentration distributions of the gas and dust. During the diffusion process, some high-risk regions in which the gas or dust concentrations exceeded 0.80% or 200 mg/m3, respectively, were discovered. Moreover, we have found that the airflow velocity in the top region of the tunnel and at the intersection corner between the cutting face and tunnel wall was the main factor affecting the purification effects. When Lp = 5–8 m, the gas concentration remained below 0.50%. When Lp = 6 m, the dust concentration reached a minimum of 287.5 mg/m3. Therefore, the optimal purification distance was determined to be 6 m; in which case, the gas and dust concentrations decreased by 32.84% and 47.02%, respectively.

Currently, several single extraction methods are used for the evaluation of the phytoavailability of metals using pot experiments. A systematic comparison, however, is lacking. It is especially true for the field studies. This study was to investigate the phytoavailability of trace elements to vegetables grown on metal-contaminated soils under the field conditions. All soils collected were typical calcareous soils in northern China. Four frequently used methods using CaCl2, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), CH3COOH, and water as extractants were compared for phyto-availability. The concentrations of metals extracted by these four extraction methods ranged from 3.42 to 815, 1.51- 6965, 0.732-24473, 0.688-7863, 0.246-685, 1.99-5337 0.203-4649 ng/g for Cr, Ni, Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb and REEs, respectively. Simple correlation analysis indicated that a significant correlation (Cr: r = 0.5411**; Zn: r = 0.6352**; Cd: r = 0.6979**; Pb: r = 0.5537** and REEs: r = 0.5185** -0.6684**) was observed between the CaCl2-extractable metals in soil solution and that in Chinese cabbage. In addition, soil pH, organic matter (OM), and cation exchange capacity (CEC) also affect the phytoavailability. An empirical model was developed to express the combined effect of soil properties on the phytoavailability. The stepwise multiple regression analysis demonstrated that the phytoavailability of trace elements strongly correlated with the extractable fraction by CaCl2, total metal concentration in soils, and soil pH, OM, CEC. This model can describe approximately 75-95% of the variability of metal uptake and the r2 values ranged from 0.741** to 0.954**, which were much better than the single correlation analysis. For celery and cole, a strong correlation was obtained for Cr, Ni, Zn, Cu, Cd, La, Ce, Pr and Nd. For spinach and Chinese cabbage, however, a positive correlation was only observed for 1 and 3 metals, respectively. Generally, the developed empirical model can integrate the combined effects of soil properties, extractable metal fractions in soil solutions and plant species on the phytoavailability of metals to vegetables in the field conditions. 相似文献
