国家《大气污染防治行动计划》健康效益评估

为了提高空气质量改善进程,2013 年国家发布了《大气污染防治行动计划》。本文基于空气污染与健康效益评估模型(BenMAP),对人口分布资料、大气污染与人体健康影响的暴露反应关系等进行了本土化修正,采用“支付意愿法”与“疾病成本法”相结合的方法,系统评估了《大气污染防治行动计划》实施后,PM_2.5 污染变化引起的环境健康效益。研究结果表明,《大气污染防治行动计划》的实施将在一定程度上降低PM_2.5 环境浓度,改善环境空气质量。如果《大气污染防治行动计划》空气质量目标全面实现,可以避免城镇8.9 万居民的过早死亡,减少12 万人次住院治疗以及941 万人次的门诊和急诊病例,实现的全国健康效益约为867 亿元/ 年,说明了《大气污染防治行动计划》实施的健康有益性。本文对政府部门开展污染损失评估及制定环境健康政策具有重要的参考价值。     

夏季高温下污水处理厂生物处理系统的硝化性能及强化方法

本文模拟夏季高温,考察了温度(30～45℃)和氨氮容积负荷对污水处理厂好氧池活性污泥硝化功能及微生物群落的影响,同时探讨中温富集硝化污泥高温驯化前后用于强化受高温冲击的生物处理系统的硝化效果.结果表明,在30～40℃水温下好氧池活性污泥的氨氮去除效果保持在90%以上,硝化菌含量也逐步升高至4. 55%;当水温升至45℃时氨氮去除率和硝化菌含量均分别降至40%和1. 97%.为快速恢复受夏季高温冲击的生物系统,将中温富集硝化污泥在40℃下驯化61 d后,获得硝化活性为(60±5) mg·(L·h)-1的硝化污泥,考察中温富集硝化污泥驯化前后对受高温冲击的生物处理系统的强化效果,发现驯化后的中温富集硝化污泥只需投加5%(体积分数)即可提高10%的氨氮去除率,而未驯化的则需要投加10%(体积分数).上述结果表明,中温富集硝化污泥经驯化后能更好地用于强化受高温冲击的生物处理系统的硝化功能.     

不同构型富氮生物炭对Pb (II)和Cr (VI)的作用机制

为了明确不同构型富氮生物炭对重金属的作用机理,本研究以玉米秸秆为生物质,通过尿素改性结合高温热解制备了3种不同氮构型的富氮生物炭（以吡咯氮为主的Pr-NBC、吡啶氮为主的Pd-NBC和石墨氮为主的Gp-NBC）,考察其对典型重金属的作用行为.吸附动力学和吸附等温线等实验结果显示：富氮生物炭对Pb （II）和Cr （VI）的吸附均以化学吸附为主,且存在明显的差异;对Pb （II）的吸附容量与溶液离子强度成正比,吸附可能以形成内层络合物为主,对Cr （VI）的作用则包含吸附和还原两个过程;对两种重金属的吸附容量受pH影响较大,静电吸引作用可能是主要驱动力.吸附前后的材料表征显示：富氮生物炭主要通过静电吸引作用、阳离子交换、沉淀作用和阳离子-π键作用吸附Pb （II）,通过静电吸引作用吸附Cr （VI）,同时能将Cr （VI）还原为Cr （III）.不同构型氮与重金属作用机理存在差异,其中,石墨氮主要通过与Pb （II）形成阳离子-π键作用促进吸附,吡咯氮和吡啶氮具有还原性,可将Cr （VI）转化为Cr （III）,实现减毒.因此,在考察自然环境中富氮生物炭对重金属的作用机制时,应当充分考虑氮构型的影响.     

强化启动对内循环生物流化床硝化效果的影响

通过改变内循环生物流化床的启动水质,提高N/C组成以强化流化床后期的硝化作用.结果表明,高N/C和低进水COD强化启动后处理生活污水,在HRT为2h时,可以同时高效去除COD和氨氮,氨氮的平均去除率为74%.耗氧速率试验表明,强化启动后,流化床中生物膜的异养菌活性大幅度降低,氨氧化细菌活性明显提高,硝化细菌活性变化不大.对反应系统微生物醌进行的跟踪分析表明,强化启动后,生物膜中的硝化细菌数量明显增加,微生物种群的分布均匀性变化较小,以革兰氏阴性菌为主.扫描电镜观察显示,低N/C启动条件下,生物膜厚且致密,异养菌所占比例高;高N/C启动条件有利于硝化细菌的生长,生物膜相对稀薄.

Incentive Structure of and Private Landowner Participation in an Endangered Species Conservation Program

Abstract: In the United States, voluntary incentive programs that aid conservation of plant and wildlife species on private lands provide a structural solution to the problem of protecting endangered species by reducing costs and enhancing benefits to landowners. We explored the potential for incentives to encourage landowners to manage land cover for the benefit of endangered songbirds in central Texas (U.S.A.) by asking landowners to indicate their preferences for financial incentives, technical assistance, and regulatory assurances. We identified owners of potential songbird habitat and collected data in face‐to‐face interviews and self‐administered questionnaires. We used a latent‐class stated‐choice model to identify 3 classes of landowners whose choices varied on the basis of their attitudes and perceived social norms: (1) strong positive attitude, perceived social pressure to participate, and willing to participate with relatively few incentives, (2) weak positive attitude, perceived no social pressure to participate, and required strongest incentives, and (3) negative attitude, perceived social pressure not to enroll, and unwilling to participate regardless of incentive structure. Given this heterogeneity in preferences, conservation incentives may increase management of land cover to benefit endangered species on private lands to some degree; however, exclusive reliance on incentives may be insufficient. Promoting conservation on private lands may be enhanced by integrating incentives into an approach that incorporates other strategies for conservation, including social networks and collaborative processes that reinforce social norms.     

Conflict and engagement: An empirical study of a farmer-extension partnership in a sustainable agriculture program

Stakeholder engagement is a crucial concept of extension education. Engagement expresses democratic values of the land-grant mission by providing opportunities for stakeholders to influence program planning, including setting the agenda and negotiating resource allocations. In practice, the concept of engagement guides the formation of partnerships among extension, communities, industry, and government. In the area of sustainable agriculture, however, stakeholders may conflict, presenting challenges to the engagement process. Results from a study of a Canadian sustainable agriculture program, produced using cultural anthropology and participatory action research, detail challenges of the engagement process that led to reconstruction of a farmer-extension partnership. Notable in the early phase of the reconstruction process were critical reflection, stakeholder forums, exclusion through caucusing, and coalition building. An argument for a neopragmatist view provides a theoretical basis for understanding counterintuitive dimensions of engagement revealed by the study.
