Foliar and ground deposits of fenitrothion following aerial application over a plantation forest

Abstract

Spray deposits were measured on spruce foliage at tree canopy level and on glass plates at ground level, after aerial application of an emulsion formulation of fenitrothion at the rate of 0.21 kg AI in 1.46 L per ha over a 16 ha plot in a plantation forest. Fenitrothion deposits were quantified by gas‐liquid chromatography. A wide variation was observed in deposits on foliage and at the forest floor. Deposits were relatively higher on foliar samples collected from the upwind side of a tree canopy than those on the downwind side. Similarly, the glass plate placed under a tree on the upwind side received relatively higher deposit than the one on the downwind side. However, the glass plates placed in the adjacent forest openings collected markedly higher deposits. Results clearly indicate filtration of the spray droplets by canopy foliage. Assessment of the average deposit of fenitrothion at ground level (mean deposit from all sampling locations) indicated that ca. 19.4% of the applied material reached the forest floor. Within a sampling station, correlation was poor between foliar depsits and those on glass plates under the same trees or in nearby clearings. Analysis of fenitrothion deposits on foliage collected at 1 and 2 h after application indicated that the droplets took, more than 1 h for deposition on the tree canopy. On the other hand, deposition on the glass plates at ground level appeared to be practically complete within 1 h post‐treatment. This was attributed to the higher sedimentation velocities of the larger droplets which tend to travel faster to the floor level than the smaller droplets which float for a longer period near the tree canopy.     

不同密度沉水植物腐解过程中水体DOM变化特征

选取白洋淀淀区的泥、水以及晒干的优势沉水植物金鱼藻、轮藻为研究对象,设置6个密度梯度模拟实验,分别于实验进行的50 d和100 d采集水样,运用紫外和荧光光谱技术研究沉水植物腐解阶段水体中溶解性有机质(DOM)的变化。结果显示,同步荧光光谱中,类蛋白峰荧光强度的变化不具规律性,类腐殖质峰荧光强度随密度的增加呈上升趋势,I2/I1的值随着密度的增加或时间的推移均逐渐增大;三维荧光光谱中,随着密度的增加,类富里酸荧光峰A和C的强度逐渐增加,而类色氨酸荧光峰T1的强度变化不大,腐解植物的密度大于3 kg/m3时各组均产生了类海洋腐殖质荧光峰B且强度随密度的增加逐渐增强,C峰的强度与水样中的COD和TP呈显著正相关;紫外光谱测定中,A253/A203的值随着密度的增加或时间的推移而逐渐增大,水体中的芳香族化合物也增多。

固体声在建筑物内的衰减、反射和透射

固体声波在建筑物内传播会产生衰减、反射和透射。文中对居民楼内的固体传声进行了理论分析,认为建筑物内固体声传播过程中存在扩散衰减、结构突变衰减和阻尼损失衰减。同时,固体声波在墙体或楼板内反射使声能密度大大增加;固体声在传播过程中会向空气中透射,使得居民室内产生结构噪声污染。文中对某小区变压器房结构噪声进行理论分析和计算,预测了变压器房上方室内的结构噪声级,计算结果表明,当设备基础上振动级达到90 dB时,二楼居民室内的结构噪声级可达到41.3 dB,这对人们的正常生活会产生十分不利的影响。计算值与实际测量值较为吻合,说明理论分析和预测计算基本是可信的。     

Photocatalytic inactivation of Escherichia coli by natural sphalerite suspension: effect of spectrum, wavelength and intensity of visible light

The photocatalytic disinfection of Escherichia coli K-12 is investigated by the natural sphalerite (NS) under different spectra, wavelengths and intensities of visible light (VL) emitted by light-emitting-diode lamp (LED). The spectrum effect of VL on disinfection efficiency is studied by using white LED, fluorescent tube (FT) and xenon lamp (XE), which indicates that the “discreted peak spectrum” of FT is more effective to inactivate bacteria than “continuous spectrum” of LED and XE. Besides, the photocatalytic disinfection of bacteria is compared under different single spectrum (blue, green, yellow and red color) LEDs. The results show that the most effective wavelength ranges of VL for photocatalytic disinfection with the NS are 440-490 and 570-620 nm. Furthermore, a positive relationship is obtained between the disinfection efficiency and the VL intensity. The experiment shows that NS can completely inactivate 10⁷ cfu mL⁻¹E. coli K-12 within 8 h irradiation by white LED with the intensity of 200 mW cm⁻² at pH 8. Moreover, the destruction process of the cell wall and the cell membrane are directly observed by TEM. Finally, no bacterial colony can be detected within a 96 h regrowth test of inactivated bacteria, which reveals that the VL-photocatalytic disinfection leads to an irreversible damage to the bacterial cells.

复合絮凝剂聚硅酸铝铁的形貌结构及性能研究

向聚硅酸中引入铝盐、铁盐制得聚硅酸铝铁(PFAS)复合絮凝剂,用电子显微镜观察分析了不同Al/Fe/Si摩尔比的PFAS形貌,用红外光谱研究了其中铝离子、铁离子与聚硅酸的相互作用情况,并对其絮凝性能进行了考察.结果发现:聚硅酸铝铁的形貌均为枝杈状聚集态,并带有分形特征,完全不同于聚硅酸的球形或椭球形,也不同于聚铝、聚合铝铁的晶形;Al/Fe/Si摩尔比对形貌有较大影响.红外光谱证实了PFAS中部分铝离子、铁离子及水解络合铝离子、铁离子可与共存的聚硅酸起螯合(络合)反应生成铁铝硅聚合物,PFAS的絮凝性能高于聚硅酸铝、聚硅酸铁.
