Enhanced stability of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of subsurface solids

The stabilization of hydrogen peroxide was investigated as a basis for enhancing its downgradient transport and contact with contaminants during catalyzed H(2)O(2) propagations (CHP) in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO). Stabilization of hydrogen peroxide was investigated in slurries containing four characterized subsurface solids using phytate, citrate, and malonate as stabilizing agents after screening ten potential stabilizers. The extent of hydrogen peroxide stabilization and the most effective stabilizer were solid-specific; however, phytate was usually the most effective stabilizer, increasing the hydrogen peroxide half-life to as much as 50 times. The degree of stabilization was nearly as effective at 10 mM concentrations as at 250 mM or 1 M concentrations. The effect of stabilization on relative rates of hydroxyl radical activity varied between the subsurface solids, but citrate and malonate generally had a greater positive effect than phytate. The effect of phytate, citrate, and malonate on the relative rates of superoxide generation was minimal to somewhat negative, depending on the solid. The results of this research demonstrate that the stabilizers phytate, citrate, and malonate can significantly increase the half-life of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of subsurface solids during CHP reactions while maintaining a significant portion of the reactive oxygen species activity. Use of these stabilizers in the field will likely improve the delivery of hydrogen peroxide and downgradient treatment during CHP ISCO.     

The OH-induced degradation mechanism of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) with two forms in the water: a DFT comparison

The initial degradation mechanisms of OH and 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) including molecular form and anionic form are studied at the MPWB1K/6-311+G(3df, 2p)//MPWB1K/6-31+G(d, p) level. Possible reaction pathways of H-atom abstraction and OH addition are considered in detail. By result comparison analysis, it is found that the reaction mechanisms for OH and two forms of MCPA are different, and most reactions for anionic MCPA are easier than those for molecular MCPA. For H-atom abstraction reactions, the calculated energies show that OH abstracting H-atom from -CH₃ group of molecular MCPA is the most kinetically favorable process; the potential energy surface for anionic MCPA indicates that H-atom in -CH₂ group is slightly easier to be abstracted than that in -CH₃ group. For OH addition reactions, the addition of OH to the C1 site is the initial step for molecular MCPA and the predominant product is 4-chloro-2-methylphenol (denoted P3), while the C4 site is the most reactive site for anionic MCPA and the primary product results from the hydroxylation of the aromatic ring, which is in good agreement with the experimental observation. In additional, results from PCM calculations show that most reactions in water phase are more kinetically favorable than those in gas phase, though the mechanisms discussed above will not be changed.

企业安全管理中的非正式群体功能探析

在企业中非正式群体是客观存在的,它对企业安全管理具有正向（积极）和负向（消极）的双重功能。如果正确引导,非正式群体可弥补正式群体的不足,在实现企业安全生产目标中发挥重要的作用,反之,则会干扰企业安全生产目标的实现。企业安全管理者应正视非正式群体的存在,并正确认识非正式群体,充分利用其特点,加强引导与控制,因势利导,趋利避害,调动一切积极因素,为实现企业安全目标服务。本文介绍了企业非正式群体的类型及特点,阐述了在企业安全管理中如何加强对非正式群体的引导、利用及控制管理,充分发挥非正式群体的正向功能,限制其负向功能。     

安全投入模型的研究

从安全投入产出分析的角度为安全投入决策提出一个新视角,相比于直接用生产函数等数学方法得到安全投入与安全产出的关系,通过软件分析得出各个要素与安全产出的关系,再进行拟合,最后得到安全产出回归方程,这样得到的分析结果更准确和可信。通过实例可以证明如果要确定安全投入要素之间的分配比例可以采用生产函数分析方法,如要预测安全产出可以采用根据散点图做出的回归方程。另外,在分析安全投入要素相对重要度时,因为各个投入要素的数量级和单位的不同,回归方程系数应选择标准化回归系数;要预测安全投入产生的安全产出则应采用非标准化回归系数。
