深厚黄土覆盖层上土石坝地震响应特性分析

采用非线性有限单元法和笔者曾提出的动孔压试验曲线法,对某深厚黄土覆盖层上土石坝进行了有效应力法地震响应分析,重点分析大坝的绝对加速度、动位移和动应力等动力响应及动孔隙水压力分布情况。分析结果表明,在现有设计条件下,由于坝基软弱黄土覆盖层较厚,大坝在7度地震作用下地震响应不强烈,但坝基黄土覆盖层会出现液化情况,需采取相应的抗液化工程措施。

黄土丘陵沟壑区深层土壤水分空间变异及其影响因子

以甘肃省定西市龙滩流域为例,对比分析了不同坡位、坡度和坡向典型植被(柠条林地、油松林地、侧柏林地、苜蓿草地、荒草地和农地)0～8 m深度土壤水分的空间变异状况。结果表明,不同植被和地形条件下,深层土壤水分的剖面分布特征均表现为随土层深度增加而增加。地形是浅层土壤水分空间变异的重要影响因子,而植被生长状况是深层土壤水分空间变异的决定因素,植被生长越好则深层土壤含水量越低。坡度对深层土壤水分有显著影响,缓坡地土壤含水量显著高于陡坡地。水土保持工程和耕作管理措施能有效提高深层土壤含水量,可作为提高土壤储水的有效途径。

建立健康的流域生态系统是恢复退化的生态系统、实现黄土高原山川秀美的目标。论文以安塞纸坊沟小流域为对象,利用层次分析法,选取林草覆盖度、基本农田面积、土壤抗冲性、土壤有机质含量、农业产投比、粮食单产、人均纯收入和综合治理减沙效率等反映流域生态经济系统功能评价指标,定量分析了黄土丘陵区安塞纸坊沟小流域进行水土保持型生态农业的建设中生态系统恢复的过程。研究表明,该小流域经过近20年治理,经历了起始恢复、稳定发展阶段,开始进入良性循环。其健康指数由1985年的0.178增加到1999年的0.707。研究中首次引入土壤抗冲性和有机质指标,并在评价中对生态系统恢复不同阶段给予各指标不同权重值,对方法进行了改进。     

黄土边坡坡面冲刷的临界坡度

边坡坡面冲刷存在一个临界坡度,边坡坡度接近临界坡度,冲刷量最大。通过能量守恒原理,建立了临界坡度的计算公式,它与边坡坡长以及降雨强度和坡面的粗造程度存在一定的函数关系。通过实例分析了临界坡度和单级坡高的确定,理论分析与工程实践基本一致,说明理论分析是合理可行的。     

黄土区典型小流域矿物化学风化及碳汇效应

黄土中蕴含了巨大的碳库,黄土中碳的转移对区域乃至全球碳循环具有重要影响。本文选择山西省临县一典型黄土小流域青凉寺沟流域进行调查分析,研究黄土水的化学特征及离子来源,分析黄土矿物的溶蚀过程及碳汇效应,并利用正演模型和水化学方法估算不同矿物的离子贡献比例及流域碳汇通量。结果发现,研究区黄土化学成分的含量由高到低依次为SiO_2、Al_2O_3、CaO、Fe_2O_3、MgO、K_2O、Na_2O,表现出贫SiO_2、Fe_2O_3,富CaO、MgO的特点;黄土水的pH呈中性偏碱,阴离子主要以HCO_3~-为主,阳离子以Na~+为主,水化学类型为重碳酸-钠型(HCO_3~--Na~+),水化学组成与黄土的化学组成相对应;流域内不同端元离子来源贡献计算结果表明,大气沉降、人类输入、蒸发盐矿物、硅酸盐矿物和碳酸盐矿物化学风化贡献的溶解物质分别占总溶解物质的1. 66%、6. 32%、10. 38%、62. 23%、19. 31%;黄土区长时间的水-矿物作用是硅酸盐矿物溶解贡献占主导的主要原因,阳离子置换反应、土壤-盐分浸出与蒸发以及人类输入对硅酸盐矿物溶解也有一定的贡献;受黄土区相对低温少雨的影响,黄土矿物的平均化学风化速率较低,为9. 31 t/(km~2·a),低于全球岩石的化学风化速率平均值36 t/(km~2·a),但是其消耗大气CO_2的速率较高,约为6. 34 t CO_2/(km2·a),明显高于同纬度三川河岩溶流域的碳汇速率(5. 28 t CO_2/(km~2·a));利用水化学径流法计算的青凉寺沟黄土小流域的矿物化学风化的大气CO_2消耗量为0. 18×10~4t/a,为中国黄土区大气CO_2消耗量的估算提供基础数据。     

Highly selective catalytic reduction of NOxby MnOx–CeO2–Al2O3 catalysts prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis

We first present preparation of MnOx–CeO_2–Al_2O_3 catalysts with varying Mn contents through a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis(SHS) method, and studied the application of these catalysts to the selective catalytic reduction of NOxwith NH3(NH_3-SCR).Using the catalyst with 18 wt.% Mn(18 MnCe1Al2), 100% NO conversion was achieved at 200°C and a gas hourly space velocity of 15384 hr-1, and the high-efficiency SCR temperature window, where NO conversion is greater than 90%, was widened to a temperature range of 150–300°C. 18 MnCe1Al2 showed great resistance to SO_2(100 ppm)and H_2O(5%) at 200°C. The catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller(BET) analysis, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and H_2 temperature programmed reduction. The characterization results showed that the surface atomic concentration of Mn increased with increasing Mn content, which led to synergism between Mn and Ce and improved the activity in the SCR reaction. 18 MnCe1Al2 has an extensive pore structure,with a BET surface area of approximately 135.4 m~2/g, a pore volume of approximately 0.16 cm~3/g, and an average pore diameter of approximately 4.6 nm. The SCR reaction on 18 MnCe1Al2 mainly followed the Eley-Rideal mechanism. The performances of the MnOx–CeO_2–Al_2O_3 catalysts were good, and because of the simplicity of the preparation process,the SHS method is applicable to their industrial-scale manufacture.     

Temporal–spatial distribution and diastereoisomer pattern of hexabromocyclododecane in the vicinity of a chemical plant

Hexabromocyclododecane(HBCD) is an effective brominated flame-retardant additive, which is mainly produced in the coastal area of China. This study collected soil samples from a HBCD production plant and its surrounding area in Weifang, Shandong Province, China, and analyzed the temporal–spatial distribution of HBCD and its diastereoisomers in soil. The analysis results showed that the concentration of HBCD in soil near the plant was much higher than normal values, with an annual average concentration reaching 5405 ng/g. Soils 1,2 and 4 km away from the plant were also analyzed, showing that the concentration of HBCD in soil decreased accordingly with the distance from the pollution sources. In order to investigate the effect of the season on HBCD content, the soil samples were collected in all four seasons of the year 2017–2018. According to variations in the wind direction, the concentration of HBCD in soil was also changed. The distribution trend showed that the concentration of HBCD in soil in the downwind direction of the prevailing wind was higher than that in the upwind direction. In addition, this work analyzed the distribution of HBCD in vertical soil sections. It was found that the concentration of HBCD decreased with depth in the soil vertical profile. Finally, the various diastereoisomer patterns in the soil compartments were examined, finding that α-HBCD and γ-HBCD were the predominant diastereoisomers in the soil of the study area.     

Selective elimination of chromophoric and fluorescent dissolved organic matter in a full-scale municipal wastewater treatment plant

Effluent organic matter (EfOM) from municipal wastewater treatment plants potentially has a detrimental effect on both aquatic organisms and humans. This study evaluated the removal and transformation of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in a full-scale wastewater treatment plant under different seasons. The results showed that bio-treatment was found to be more efficient in removing bulk DOM (in terms of dissolved organic carbon, DOC) than CDOM and FDOM, which was contrary to the disinfection process. CDOM and FDOM were selectively removed at various stages during the treatment. Typically, the low molecular weight (MW) fractions of CDOM and protein-like FDOM were more efficiently removed during bio-treatment process, whereas the humic-like FDOM exhibited comparable decreases in both bio-treatment and disinfection processes. Overall, the performance of the WWTP was weak in terms of CDOM and FDOM removal, resulting in enrichment of CDOM and FDOM in effluent. Moreover, the total removal of the bulk DOM (P < 0.05) and the protein-like FDOM (P < 0.05) displayed a significant seasonal variation, with higher removal efficiencies in summer, whereas removal of CDOM and the humic-like FDOM showed little differences between summer and winter. In all, the results provide useful information for understanding the fate and transformation of DOM, illustrating that sub-fractions of DOM could be selectively removed depending on treatment processes and seasonality.
