地下水浅埋区某加油站特征污染物空间分布

加油站渗漏污染地下水已经是一个世界性的问题。由于浅埋区加油站储罐与地下水密切接触,更加剧储罐的腐蚀。为揭示加油站渗漏的典型污染物石油烃（TPH）、苯系物（BTEX）、萘和甲基叔丁基醚（MTBE）在该水文地质条件下的迁移变化,在浅埋区某加油站开展了平、枯、丰水期的地下水监测工作。在水平分布上,TPH、BTEX、萘基本相似,均在加油岛附近形成高浓度区,而MTBE则更易随地下水流动而迁移,呈现出不同的污染晕。在垂直分布上,地下水的水位变动是污染物浓度分布的主要影响因素。

甲基叔丁基醚(MTBE)蒸腾流浓度因子(TSCF)的试验评估

甲基叔丁基醚(MTBE)是北美燃料市场最常用的汽油添加剂，由于在土壤中的不吸附性和极高的水溶性．MT-BE已成为一种蔓延性的地下水污染物．植物修复技术被认为是目前对MTBE污染治理最为有效的方法之一．蒸腾流浓度因子（TSCF)作为植物修复技术中十分重要的参数，其通常是用污染物的辛醇-水分配系数(Kow)直接评估的。由于不同植物其体内脂肪含量不同，所以如果仅用污染物的Kow值来计算其TSCF值，往往不能准确表达污染物在植物体内的传输行为．由于MTBE在植物体内不发生降解，植物挥发是MTBE植物修复技术中唯一的作用机理．本实验用一自行设计的植物反应器来测定MTBE在不同温度条件下的TSCF值．长出新根须和嫩叶的柳树(Salix alba)枝条在一容积500mL的植物反应器中生长9-12d(其中MTBE溶液500mL，浓度4．81-6．60mg／L)来观察柳树对MTBE的吸收。MTBE的去除率和柳树的蒸腾量之间的关系用来计算其TSCF值．在15℃，20℃和25℃条件下，MTBE的TSCF值分别为0.58,0.75和0.49．本实验结果表明，柳树对MTBE的吸收是一个被动的行为，并且MTBE在柳树体内随蒸腾流的传输也有一定的限度。图2表1参11。

Distributions of personal VOC exposures: a population-based analysis

Information regarding the distribution of volatile organic compound (VOC) concentrations and exposures is scarce, and there have been few, if any, studies using population-based samples from which representative estimates can be derived. This study characterizes distributions of personal exposures to ten different VOCs in the U.S. measured in the 1999-2000 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Personal VOC exposures were collected for 669 individuals over 2-3 days, and measurements were weighted to derive national-level statistics. Four common exposure sources were identified using factor analyses: gasoline vapor and vehicle exhaust, methyl tert-butyl ether (MBTE) as a gasoline additive, tap water disinfection products, and household cleaning products. Benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, xylenes chloroform, and tetrachloroethene were fit to log-normal distributions with reasonably good agreement to observations. 1,4-Dichlorobenzene and trichloroethene were fit to Pareto distributions, and MTBE to Weibull distribution, but agreement was poor. However, distributions that attempt to match all of the VOC exposure data can lead to incorrect conclusions regarding the level and frequency of the higher exposures. Maximum Gumbel distributions gave generally good fits to extrema, however, they could not fully represent the highest exposures of the NHANES measurements. The analysis suggests that complete models for the distribution of VOC exposures require an approach that combines standard and extreme value distributions, and that carefully identifies outliers. This is the first study to provide national-level and representative statistics regarding the VOC exposures, and its results have important implications for risk assessment and probabilistic analyses.

A ban on one is a boon for the other: Strict gasoline content rules and implicit ethanol blending mandates

Ethanol and methyl-tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) were close substitutes in the gasoline additives market until MTBE was banned due to the concerns about groundwater contamination, leading to a sudden and dramatic substitution toward ethanol as an alternative oxygenate and octane-booster. We use variation in the timing of MTBE bans across states to identify their effects on gasoline prices. We find that state bans increased reformulated gasoline prices by 3–6 cents in non-Midwestern states for which the bans were binding, with larger impacts during times of high ethanol prices relative to MTBE and crude oil. We find qualitatively similar, yet smaller effects for conventional gasoline. We argue on the basis of a simple conceptual model and supporting empirical evidence that these bans functioned as implicit ethanol blending mandates in areas that were previously using MTBE to comply with strict environmental constraints. Overall, our results are consistent with the theoretical prediction that mandating a minimum market share for a more costly alternative fuel—either directly, or implicitly through a ban on the preferred conventional fuel—will inevitably increase fuel prices in a competitive market.     

O3/H2O2法降解甲基叔丁基醚（MTBE）的试验研究

采用自制鼓泡反应器对臭氧/双氧水(O3/H2O2)降解水中甲基叔丁基醚(MTBE)进行了试验研究,考察了进气(含O3)流量、H2O2 投加量、MTBE初始浓度、pH、温度等因素对MTBE降解的影响.结果表明,在MTBE初始浓度为10 mg·L-1,气体流量为0.5 L·min-1,温度293K, pH=6.5, H2O2 添加量为2.4mg·L1 条件下,反应30 min后, MTBE去除率可达75.5%, COD去除率为68.0%.降解得到的中间产物主要有叔丁基甲酯(TBF)、叔丁醇(TBA)、乙酸甲酯(MA)和丙酮(AC)等,据此探讨了O3/H2O2氧化MTBE的可能反应机理和降解途径.
