Preliminary investigation of phosphorus adsorption onto two types of iron oxide-organic matter complexes

Iron oxide(FeO)coated by natural organic matter(NOM)is ubiquitous.The associations of minerals with organic matter(OM)significantly changes their surface properties and reactivity,and thus affect the environmental fate of pollutants,including nutrients(e.g.,phosphorus(P)).In this study,ferrihydrite/goethite-humic acid(FH/GE–HA)complexes were prepared and their adsorption characteristics on P at various p H and ionic strength were investigated.The results indicated that the Fe O–OM complexes showed a decreased P adsorption capacity in comparison with bare Fe O.The maximum adsorption capacity(Q_(max))decreased in the order of FH(22.17 mg/g)FH-HA(5.43 mg/g)GE(4.67 mg/g)GE-HA(3.27 mg/g).After coating with HA,the amorphous FH–HA complex still showed higher P adsorption than the crystalline GE–HA complex.The decreased P adsorption observed might be attributed to changes of the Fe O surface charges caused by OM association.The dependence of P adsorption on the specific surface area of adsorbents suggests that the Fe O component in the complexes is still the main contributor for the adsorption surfaces.The P adsorptions on Fe O–HA complexes decreased with increasing initial p H or decreasing initial ionic strength.A strong dependence of P adsorption on ionic strength and p H may demonstrate that outer-sphere complexes between the OM component on the surface and P possibly coexist with inner-sphere surface complexes between the Fe O component and P.Therefore,previous over-emphasis on the contributions of original minerals to P immobilization possibly over-estimates the P loading capacity of soils,especially in humic-rich areas.     

陕北黄土高原区滑坡发育类型与时空分布特征——以吴起县为例

自1970年代以来,因吴起油田的发现,吴起县石油开采及相关工程建设频繁,各项工程建设在为吴起县带来经济发展的同时也引发了大量滑坡灾害。以"陕西省延安市吴起县地质灾害详细调查"项目为依托,对县内滑坡的类型及分布情况进行了较为详细的野外调查。根据调查结果将滑坡分为黄土层内滑坡、黄土-红粘土接触面滑坡、红粘土-基岩接触面滑坡和黄土泥流滑坡四类,并对滑坡灾害的时间、空间及时空分布特征进行了分析,最后提出相关防治对策。     

悬臂式单锚抗滑桩加固黄土滑坡的模型试验

通过开展悬臂式单根锚杆抗滑桩加固黄土滑坡的室内模型试验,获得桩后滑坡推力、桩前土体抗力、桩体及锚杆的应力-应变情况,并据此研究了悬臂式单锚抗滑桩桩侧地层抗力、桩身内力分布规律及其破坏模式.结果表明:在滑坡推力作用下,悬臂式锚杆抗滑桩受荷段桩后受压、桩前受拉,而嵌固段桩后受拉、桩前受压,锚杆抗滑桩受力形式呈“S”曲线状;随着锚杆抗滑桩在荷载作用下的变形破坏,其桩前、桩后土压力分布规律也逐渐改变;悬臂式锚杆抗滑桩的破坏模式主要为塑性铰弯折破坏,而土体中锚杆的破坏模式主要为弯剪-滑移破坏.     

Effects of temperature and composite alumina on pyrolysis of sewage sludge

An interactive dual-circulating fluidized bed system has been proposed in which the pyrolysis of sewage sludge(SS) and incineration of biomass proceed simultaneously, and alumina is used as the bed material and heat carrier. The alumina coated with biomass ash would mix with sewage sludge in the pyrolysis reactor of this device. It is important to know the influence of composite alumina(CA) on the pyrolysis progress. Sewage sludge was pyrolyzed in a fixed bed reactor from 400 to 600°C using CA as catalyst. The effects of temperature and CA additive ratio on the products were investigated. The product yields and component distribution of non-condensable gas were more sensitive to the change of temperature, and the maximum liquid yield of 48.44 wt.% and maximum Useable Energy of Liquid of 3871 k J/kg sludge were observed at 500°C with 1/5 CA/SS(mass ratio). The gas chromatography–mass spectrometry results showed that the increase of temperature enhanced devolatilization of organic matter and promoted cyclization and aromatization of aliphatics. The presence of CA could strengthen secondary cracking and interaction among primary products from different organic compounds, such as acid–amine condensation,and reduce the content of oxygenated compounds. When the CA additive amount exceeded a certain proportion, the aromatization was clearly strengthened. The effects of CA on decomposition of fatty acids and formation of aromatics were similar to that of temperature. This means that the reaction temperature could be lowered by introducing CA, which has a positive effect on reducing energy consumption.     

天山北麓宁家河阶地上的黄土堆积及其磁学特征

本文报道了新疆地区天山北麓宁家河阶地上的黄土堆积。研究剖面的两层黄土为河流 砾石层所隔开,这在新疆地区较为少见。通过系统的岩石磁学和粒度测量,分析了该剖面两层 黄土的磁学特征,并初步探讨磁化率变化机制。结果表明：黄土中的主要磁性矿物为磁铁矿和 磁赤铁矿,并含有少量赤铁矿和针铁矿。亚铁磁性矿物主要以多畴（MD）、假单畴（PSD）颗 粒为主,反映了这一地区极弱的成土作用。砾石层上下两层黄土磁学性质存在着差异,表现为 上层黄土具有较高的磁性矿物含量、较粗的磁颗粒和相对含量较高的软磁性矿物。下层黄土受 到后期河水的改造可能是导致这些差异的原因。磁化率与粒度呈现较好的正相关关系,与黄土 高原的情况相反,说明干旱地区的黄土磁学性质主要受原生磁性矿物控制。搬运风力和源区变 化是磁化率变化的主导因素。     

西昆仑山黄土1 Ma 以来的粒度变化特征及其古气候意义

塔里木盆地南缘保存有中国西北地区厚度最大的黄土,是详细研究亚洲内陆极端干旱 区以及塔克拉玛干沙漠形成演化的理想材料。但是,目前对该地区黄土堆积粒度特征系统的研 究还相对较少,对粒度指标的古环境意义仍存有不同的认识。通过对207 m 黄土岩芯的粒度分 析发现,西昆仑山黄土的粒度组成比较均一,分选较好,主要以粗颗粒物质为主,细颗粒含量 极少,并具有典型的风成成因特征。此外,西昆仑山黄土粒度1 Ma 以来呈现出持续变粗的趋势。 通过与其他气候指标的对比,这种变粗的趋势可能主要反映了中更新世以来亚洲内陆逐步增强 的干旱化过程。

河岸蜘蛛——多样水生生态系统中PCB污染的指示生物

栖息在河岸的蜘蛛越来越多地被用来追踪水生生态系统中存在和流出污染物的空间格局。然而,我们对蜘蛛在何种情况下可有效标志水生污染的认识有限。本研究力证在具有高生境异质性的水生生态系统中,能够有效地利用河岸蜘蛛来追踪沉积物中多氯联苯(PCBs)污染的空间格局。2011年到2013年,在五大湖共同关注区(AOC)的Manistique河流域,对2类常见科属的河岸蜘蛛进行采样,结果表明生物体内的ΣPCB浓度的空间格局能够普遍地追踪采样点范围内沉积物中ΣPCBs的空间变化。该研究区域位于密歇根北部半岛南岸(Manistique,MI,US),是一个河口生态系统,包括港口、河流、回水和湖泊等栖息地。沉积物ΣPCB浓度用总有机碳浓度进行归一,解释了11个采样点中41%的以脂类归一的蜘蛛ΣPCB浓度变异。此外,2类常见河岸蜘蛛类群(园蛛科Araneidae和长脚蛛科Tetragnathidae)的ΣPCB浓度高度相关(r² > 0.78),并且按全年计算其平均ΣPCB浓度两者相似。结果表明,在异质性的水生生态系统中,例如在河流入海口,会因为栖息地和污染物变化在水生生物分类中的差别不明显,河岸蜘蛛就可能成为水生和河岸食物网中PCB有效性的标记物。此外,对于为不同种群大型结网蜘蛛提供生存条件的海岸线开发和沿岸植被的生境异质性,目前的方法具有很强的适用性。
