电子废物排放持久性有毒污染物的控制政策分析

近年来持久性有毒污染物(PTS)的环境污染和风险问题引起国内外广泛关注,电子废物是其重要的排放源.本研究针对电子废物的排放路径,基于生命周期管理,把电子废物管理分为源头削减、过程控制、末端管理和应急管理四大环节,分析我国电子废物PTS控制相关的法规政策.从管理目标、法规可得性、详细规定、法规协调性和法规政策执行效果五大方面构建法规政策评估体系,采用专家意见法对每个环节涉及的法规政策进行全面评估.源头削减环节的PTS法规政策管理较为完善,有明确的管理目标和较好的法规可得性,而应急管理环节的PTS法规政策管理最不完善,缺乏明确的管理目标和详细规定,法规协调性和执行效果差.根据评估结果针对不同环节提出相应的控制政策建议.     

十溴联苯醚(BDE-209)对紫红笛鲷鳃抗氧化酶活性的影响

十溴联苯醚(BDE-209)是目前唯一仍在全球范围内广泛使用的多溴联苯醚阻燃剂,其环境行为及生物效应逐渐成为环境污染领域研究的热点。选用2(LD组)、10(MLD组)、50(MHD组)及250μg.L-1(HD组)4个浓度的BDE-209作用于紫红笛鲷,探讨BDE-209对紫红笛鲷鳃抗氧化酶(SOD、CAT及POD)活性和MDA含量的影响。结果显示:BDE-209可以显著促进SOD和CAT活性,且随着暴露时间延长CAT活性呈现逐渐增加的趋势。暴露7d后,MLD组SOD活性达到最高68.31U.mg-1,是对照组(CK)的5.50倍,HD组CAT活性达到6.31U.mL-1,其次为MHD组的5.96U.mL-1。BDE-209对鳃POD活性呈现先促进后抑制的作用,暴露3d时各浓度POD活性均显著高于CK组(P<0.05);7d时各浓度POD活性则受到显著抑制(P<0.05),清水恢复15d后各浓度组与CK组没有显著差异(P>0.05)。暴露期间各浓度组MDA含量均显著高于CK组(P<,并且随暴露时间延长呈现先增加后减少的趋势,7d后HD组MDA含量达到最高,为6.99nmol.mg-1,清水恢复15d后,LD和MLD组MDA含量与CK组没有显著性差异(P>0.05)。以上结果表明:BDE-209可以诱导紫红笛鲷产生氧化应激效应,CAT和SOD则在氧自由基清除中发挥作用。

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in food and associated human daily intake assessment considering bioaccessibility measured by simulated gastrointestinal digestion

The concentrations of PBDEs in 299 vegetable and animal-based food samples of 31 species, collected in Shanghai, China, and the bioaccessibility of PBDEs in part of the samples were determined. The PBDE concentrations ranged from 0 to 1245.4 pg g⁻¹ with animal-based food containing more PBDEs than vegetables. The bioaccessibility of PBDEs, determined by a method simulating human gastrointestinal digestion process, were from 2.6% to 39.9% in vegetables, and from 5.2% to 105.3% in animal-based food. For animal-based food, good correlations were observed between the bioaccessibility of PBDEs and the fat content, thus the fat content in animal-based food was able to be used to estimate the bioaccessibility of PBDEs. The total daily intake of PBDEs via ingestion of vegetables and animal-based food for an average Shanghai resident was estimated as 13 235.7 and 13 668.0 pg d⁻¹, respectively, but the amounts available for human absorption were reduced to 2674.4 and 4316.6 pg d⁻¹ after the PBDE bioaccessibility was considered. Finally, the contributions of different food groups to the total daily intake of PBDEs were evaluated. The results revealed that, when not considering the bioaccessibility of PBDEs, vegetables were the leading contributor (49.2%), followed by fish (34.0%). However, the sequence was reversed after the PBDE bioaccessibility was taken into account. The results indicated that human exposure to PBDEs via food ingestion might have been significantly overestimated and the exposure assessment could be misleading if the bioaccessibility of PBDEs was not considered.     

Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) in Mussels along the Chilean Coast

- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1065/espr2006.01.011 Goal, Scope and Background Chile signed the Stockholm Convention, which establishes measures to reduce or eliminate Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) release into the environment, including the prohibition of their use and reduction of secondary products release, as well as management related with waste treatment. Among POPs, PCBs are a family of 209 compounds that differ in chlorine level and position. These substances present a wide variability in their physicochemical properties such as vapor pressure, water solubility and partition coefficients that determine their behavior and mobility within the different environmental compartments. In Chile, as in other countries, the use of these compounds were and continue to occur in diverse industrial applications such as dielectric fluid in transformers and condensers, with a use in Chile of approximately 550,000 L. A sampling of bivalves was performed during the years 2000-2002 in order to obtain information on the spatial distribution of the PCB levels for the length of the long Chilean coast (180–540 South latitude, 4,200 km), contributing in this way to a better understanding of the PCB trend and eventual fractionation along latitudinal gradients in Chile, using as the bivalve Perumytilus purpuratus ('Chorito Maico') bioindicator. Methods The marine bivalves Perumytilus purpuratus were collected in 16 localities in northern and southern Chile. All samples were lyophilized, and PCBs (51 congeners) were extracted in a Soxhlet system (24 h) with n-hexane. Samples were cleaned in florisil and analyzed by GC-ECD. Blanks, certified reference materials and standards were processed along with the samples. Results and Discussion The results obtained for P. purpuratus indicate a congeneric distribution profile associated to a latitudinal gradient, and the statistical analysis of the congeneric composition of the PCBs indicated five groups in relation to the molecular weight (number of chlorines), where the lighter congeners were observed in areas corresponding to high latitudes with total PCB values of 298 ng/g dry weight. Conclusion P. purpuratus turns out to be a good bioindicator of PCB levels in the coastal areas of Chile due to its wide distribution. The highest concentrations and the more volatile congeners were found in southern Chile, which could be the result of processes of long-range transport or illegal discharge occurring in such remote areas. These results confirm previous data from the International Mussel Watch project ten years ago. Recommendation and Outlook Future studies are needed to confirm our findings utilizing another environmental matrix such as soil/sediments and air samples.

为揭示硫丹在紫色土中的残留过程、保护土壤生态环境,采用静态吸附和解吸实验,研究了紫色土对硫丹的吸附与解吸特征,考察了温度、吸附剂用量和吸附液初始p H等因素对吸附量的影响.结果表明紫色土对硫丹的吸附动力学过程可以用二级动力学方程很好地描述,获得α-,β-硫丹的初始吸附速率常数分别为0.157 mg·(g·min)-1和0.115 mg·(g·min)-1;吸附热力学过程可以用Langmuir等温吸附模型很好地描述,获得α-,β-硫丹的最大吸附量分别为0.257 mg·g-1和0.155mg·g-1,紫色土吸附硫丹是放热的物理化学过程,但以物理吸附为主.在本研究所设条件下,吸附液初始p H对吸附量的影响较大,温度和吸附剂用量的影响相对较小.解吸实验发现,紫色土吸附的α-,β-硫丹分别在6和4 h时达到最大解吸量(0.029mg·g-1和0.017 mg·g-1),分别占最大吸附量的10.5%和16.1%.     

城市雨水和土壤中持久性有机污染物分析

为分析城市环境中持久性有机污染物状况,以西安市城区为研究对象,按照城市布局设置10个代表性采样点,分别采集初期雨水和地表土壤样品,采用气相色谱法(GC)测定样品中有机氯农药和多氯联苯两大类持久性有机污染物的含量.结果表明:西安城区雨水、土壤中均含有持久性有机污染物,雨水中以pp'-DDT、α-六六六、pp'-DDD、PCB169、PCB189、PCB126居多,土壤中以op'-DDT、α-六六六、pp'-DDT、PCB169、PCB189、PCB77居多;无论雨水还是土壤中,都是有机氯农药含量高于多氯联苯含量;雨水中pp'-DDT、多氯联苯PCB169平均质量浓度分别超过GB 3838-2002《地表水环境质量标准》限值的12倍、100倍,土壤中的六六六和DDT质量比尚未超过GB 15618-1995《土壤环境质量标准》一级标准.有机氯农药和多氯联苯的逸度商(fa/fa)均远小于1,西安城区POPs的迁移总趋势是由雨水向土壤表层聚集,降雨会将大气中的POPs通过淋洗等作用带到土壤表层,大气为污染物的源,土壤为其最终的汇集地.
