Photosensitivity sources of dissolved organic matter from wastewater treatment plants and their mediation effect on 17α-ethinylestradiol photodegradation

● EE2 photodegradation behavior in the presence of four WWTPs’ DOM was explored. ● The ³DOM* played a major role in the EE2 photodegradation mediated by WWTPs’ DOM. ● The A²/O process DOM contained more aromatic and oxygen-containing substances. ● Possible photosensitivity sources of DOM in the A²/O process were proposed. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) from each treatment process of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) contains abundant photosensitive substances, which could significantly affect the photodegradation of 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2). Nevertheless, information about EE2 photodegradation behavior mediated by DOM from diverse WWTPs and the photosensitivity sources of such DOM are inadequate. This study explored the photodegradation behavior of EE2 mediated by four typical WWTPs’ DOM solutions and investigated the photosensitivity sources of DOM in the anaerobic-anoxic-oxic (A²/O) process. The parallel factor analysis identified three varying fluorescing components of these DOM, tryptophan-like substances or protein-like substances, microbial humus-like substances, and humic-like components. The photodegradation rate constants of EE2 were positively associated with the humification degree of DOM (P < 0.05). The triplet state substances were responsible for the degradation of EE2. DOM extracted from the A²/O process, especially in the secondary treatment process had the fastest EE2 photodegradation rate compared to that of the other three processes. Four types of components (water-soluble organic matter (WSOM), extracellular polymeric substance, humic acid, and fulvic acid) were separated from the A²/O process DOM. WSOM had the highest promotion effect on EE2 photodegradation. Fulvic acid-like components and humic acid-like organic compounds in WSOM were speculated to be important photosensitivity substances that can generate triplet state substances. This research explored the physicochemical properties and photosensitive sources of DOM in WWTPs, and explained the fate of estrogens photodegradation in natural waters.     

深度学习在裸地扬尘源监测中的应用研究

裸地是扬尘的重要来源,施工建设过程中形成的裸地极易在大风天气作用下造成扬尘污染。因此,快速、有效地定位裸地位置,并确认其管控措施落实情况,对于开展裸地扬尘源监管具有重要意义。基于高分辨率遥感监测数据,结合人工解译裸地扬尘源数据集,以北京市大兴区为例,利用深度学习方法对裸地和防尘网覆盖裸地进行分类识别。同时,利用颜色匹配法对大兴区防尘网覆盖裸地进行识别,横向评估深度学习方法的识别精度。结果显示：深度学习方法对防尘网覆盖裸地的识别精度达97%,对裸地的识别精度达61%;颜色匹配法对防尘网覆盖裸地的识别精度达85%。防尘网覆盖裸地的颜色特征鲜明,深度学习方法和颜色匹配法对防尘网覆盖裸地的识别精度都在85%以上。深度学习方法对于面积大于2 000 m²的图斑有着较好的识别精度。深度学习方法可以提高裸地遥感解译的效率,实现规范化图像识别,可以作为人工判读的辅助手段。在实际应用中,可通过进一步积累样本来增强模型性能。深度学习方法适用于裸地扬尘源线索快速发现、工地防尘网措施落实情况快速检测等场景。

太湖五里湖非点源污染物的来源与控制对策

现场调查显示,五里湖非点源污染物来源于城区道路、居民区、农业和绿化施肥等方面,在降雨时通过河道、湖周散流和大气沉降方式入湖.根据流域环境特点,将五里湖流域划分为西南山地风景旅游管理区,北部新城污染控制区和东南农业、渔业综合整治区3个区域类型,并对各区提出了如下的非点源污染控制对策:西南山地风景旅游管理区需采取陆上植被保护和滨水植被恢复工程;北部新城污染控制区需采取滨水区、河口区、河道区植被恢复工程以及人工湿地工程;东南农业、渔业综合整治区需采取有机农业工程、污水处理工程、植物塘净化工程和河道生态净化工程.

Emission estimation and congener-specific characterization of polybrominated diphenyl ethers from various stationary and mobile sources

Here we show that combustion sources, including waste incinerators, metallurgical processes, power-heating systems and so on, are also important emitters of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) to the atmosphere. Geometric mean PBDE concentrations in the stack flue gases of the combustion sources ranged from 8.07 to 469 ng/Nm³. The sinter plants (24.7 mg/h), electric arc furnaces (EAFs) (11.3 mg/h) and power plants (50.8 mg/h) possessed the largest PBDE emission rates, which were several orders higher than those of the other reported sources. The occurrences of the PBDEs in the flue gases of the power plants and vehicles, as well as their PBDE concentrations statistically highly correlated with combustion-originated PCDD/Fs, revealing that PBDEs should be the products of combustion. The ranking of major PBDE emission sources in Taiwanese PBDE inventory for combustion sources was power plants (30.85 kg/year), vehicles (14.9 kg/year) and metallurgical processes (5.88 kg/year).
