亚热带浅水池塘水-气界面甲烷通量特征

为研究亚热带富营养化浅水池塘水-气界面CH_4释放通量特征,以宜昌地区5个浅水池塘为对象,利用静态通量箱法进行了为期一年的水-气界面CH_4通量监测.结果表明,这5个池塘CH_4的年释放量分别为4.495、12.702、6.827、8.920、17.560 mg·(m~2·h)~(-1).其中扩散通量分别为0.075、0.087、0.118、0.086、0.151 mg·(m~2·h)~(-1),冒泡通量分别为4.420、12.616、6.709、8.834、17.409 mg·(m~2·h)~(-1),CH_4冒泡量占CH_4释放总量的98%以上,并且CH_4释放量明显高于其他水域生态系统(湖泊、水库).可见在富营养化浅水水域中,CH_4释放量较大,且冒泡排放是CH_4的主要排放方式,而只关注扩散排放而忽略冒泡排放则会大大低估CH_4释放量.     

养殖塘CH4排放特征及其影响因素

富营养化的养殖塘是重要的甲烷(CH_4)排放源.为明确养殖塘CH_4排放特征及其影响因素,本研究利用倒置漏斗法和体积扩散模型法,分别对安徽全椒两个养殖塘冬、春季CH_4冒泡通量和扩散通量进行了多日连续观测.结果表明,冬季CH_4冒泡通量白天高于夜间,夜间几乎为零;春季夜间高于白天.在季节尺度上,冬季CH_4冒泡通量显著低于春季,分别为3. 92mg·(m~2·d)-1和106. 94 mg·(m~2·d)-1;冬季CH_4扩散通量略高于春季,分别为2. 81 mg·(m~2·d)-1和0. 87 mg·(m~2·d)-1.自然因素(水温和气压)与CH_4冒泡通量和扩散通量显著相关.其中随水温的升高、气压的降低,CH_4冒泡通量分别呈指数递增和线性递增趋势.人工管理措施(冬季排水和春季施粪)会显著提高CH_4冒泡通量,但对扩散通量的影响并不显著.在冬季排水期间,水深与CH_4冒泡通量显著负相关;在春季鸡粪投放点,CH_4冒泡通量可高达1002. 30 mg·(m~2·d)-1.本研究可为评估小型养殖塘对全球碳循环的贡献提供数据支撑.     

河口陆基养虾塘沉积物铁的含量和形态

为研究河口陆基养殖塘底泥中铁的迁移和转化机制,本文测定了福建省3个河口养虾塘养殖期表层和亚表层底泥沉积物中活性铁含量及间隙水的常见组分.结果表明,不同站点间晶质Fe（III）、非硫Fe（II）、有机铁、铁硫化物含量存在显著差异.间隙水SO₄^2-和Cl^-可能是影响不同站点间Fe的形态和分布存在异质性的主要环境影响因子之一.盐度较高的养虾塘,铁的硫化物含量较高,有机铁和晶质Fe（III）含量较少.陆基养虾塘底泥沉积物中活性铁含量按固相Fe（III） > 铁硫化物 > 非硫Fe（II） > 有机铁的顺序排列.养虾塘亚表层沉积物铁硫化物（FeS和FeS₂）含量高于表层沉积物,而表层沉积物有机铁含量与间隙水SO₄^2-和NH₄⁺浓度高于亚表层沉积物.铁硫化物的生成一定程度上降低河口陆基养虾塘沉积物营养盐污染的潜在风险.     

Numerical analysis of toxic cloud generation and dispersion: A case study of the ethylene oxide spill

The present study examined the accidental spill of ethylene oxide, and a sensitivity analysis of the corresponding consequences was conducted using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A validation of the gas dispersion CFD model against the experimental data sets included in the model evaluation protocol (MEP) was performed. The effect of the variability of the wind velocity on the extension of the hazardous areas and pool evaporation characteristics was evaluated. Additionally, the mitigation effects of the dike walls surrounding a spill were discussed. CFD simulation results have shown that the mitigation effect of dike walls is determined by their influence on both gas dispersion and pool evaporation and depends strongly on wind velocity in terms of toxic impact distances.

A sneak peek into the phenomenology of fuel mist explosions: The key role of vapor fractions

The modern world depends greatly on hydrocarbons, which are ubiquitous, indispensable fuels used in nearly every existing industry. Although important, their use may trigger dangerous incidents, whether in their production, handling, storage, or transporting phase, especially when aerosolized. In light of proposing a standard procedure to assess the flammability and explosivity of fuel mists, a new test method was established based on the EN 14034 standards series. For the previous purposes, a gravity-fed mist generation system was designed and employed in a modified 20 L explosion vessel. This test method allowed the determination of the ignition sensitivity of several fuels. In addition, their explosion severity was represented by the explosion overpressure P_ex, and the rate of pressure rise dP/dt_ex, two thermo-kinetic parameters determined with a specifically developed control system and custom software. Nonetheless, a noticeable difference in the ignition sensitivity and the explosion severity was perceived when changing suppliers or petroleum cuts of some fuels. Moreover, sensitivity studies showed that both the droplet size distribution and the temperature of the droplets play a significant role in fuel mist explosion. These parameters can be directly related to the vapor fraction surrounding a droplet during its ignition. Consequently, this study focuses on the influence of varying the composition of three well-known and abundantly used fuels. Different petroleum cuts were introduced in different fractions into isooctane, Jet A1 aviation fuel, and diesel fuel mixtures, which were then aerosolized into a uniformly distributed turbulent mist cloud and ignited using spark ignitors of 100 J. Subsequently, complementary tests were executed in a vertical flame propagation tube coupled with a high-speed video camera allowing the visualization of the flame and the determination of the spatial flame velocity, and a tentative estimation of the laminar burning velocity. The latter was also estimated from the pressure-time evolution in the 20 L sphere using existing correlations. Indeed, the determination of the laminar burning velocity can be useful in modeling such accidents. Finally, highlighting the essential role of the mist and vapor fraction during their ignition has led to a better understanding of their explosion mechanisms.

Dispersion modeling of LNG-Vapor on land – A CFD-Model evaluation study

Based on methane from renewable resources, LNG is an alternative fuel for heavy and long-distance traffic in land transport. Contrary to its positive properties, the fuel contains risks from an explosion and extremely low temperatures for personal and infrastructure safety. CFD-models are suitable for doing risk analyses for arbitrary scenarios. For examining how to model for risk research the dispersion of LNG-vapor, this paper contains a model variant study, with an evaluation by experiments.This paper describes the use of the CFD-code ANSYS Fluent for simulating experiments of the ‘LNG Safety Program Phase II‘. The content of the well-documented experiments was the research of the vaporization rate of LNG on land and the dispersion of LNG-vapor in the air. Based on the comparison to two experiments, overall 12 CFD-model variants with varying thermal and turbulence parameters were examined how they affect the transient LNG-vapor dispersion in air.The definition of turbulence-boundary-condition at the domain borders had the biggest impact on modeling, followed by the turbulence model. The most accurate model variant had been applied for observing the spreading behavior of LNG-vapor in the air after evaporation on land and analyzing the influence of the LNG-composition to the dispersion. The results show that the mixture of LNG-vapor and the air in the free field is cooler than the ambient air and spreads like a heavy gas on the ground.

Effects of Impervious Area and BMP Implementation and Design on Storm Runoff and Water Quality in Eight Small Watersheds

The effects of increases in effective impervious area (EIA) and the implementation of water quality protection designed detention pond best management practices (BMPs) on storm runoff and stormwater quality were assessed in Gwinnett County, Georgia, for the period 2001‐2008. Trends among eight small watersheds were compared, using a time trend study design. Significant trends were detected in three storm hydrologic metrics and in five water quality constituents that were adjusted for variability in storm characteristics and climate. Trends in EIA ranged from 0.10 to 1.35, and changes in EIA treated by BMPs ranged from 0.19 to 1.32; both expressed in units of percentage of drainage area per year. Trend relations indicated that for every 1% increase in watershed EIA, about 2.6, 1.1, and 1.5% increases in EIA treated by BMPs would be required to counteract the effects of EIA added to the watersheds on peak streamflow, stormwater yield, and storm streamflow runoff, respectively. Relations between trends in EIA, BMP implementation, and water quality were counterintuitive. This may be the result of (1) changes in constituent inputs in the watersheds, especially downstream of areas treated by BMPs; (2) BMPs may have increased the duration of stormflow that results in downstream channel erosion; and/or (3) spurious relationships between increases in EIA, BMP implementation, and constituent inputs with development rates.
