2013年1月南京强霾时期大气细颗粒物污染特征分析

2013年1月,南京经历了一次重大持续性灰霾污染过程。利用在线气体及气溶胶监测系统和扫描电迁移率颗粒物粒径谱仪,通过研究颗粒物质量浓度,主要水溶性无机离子浓度,不同时段颗粒物的数谱分布及其日变化分布,二次气溶胶及黑碳与能见度的相关性等多个方面,较为全面地分析了重霾时期大气细颗粒物的污染特征。     

成都市中心城区春季大气颗粒物PM_(2.5)的污染特征研究

于2012年5月11日至5月15日同时对成都中心城区及其大气环境监测对照点都江堰灵岩寺大气PM2.5进行采集,并分析其中的化学组分。研究结果表明:成都市中心城区PM2.5的总体质量浓度大于灵岩寺,且各化学组分的质量浓度也均大于灵岩寺。两站点PM2.5中OC/EC均大于2,有2次有机碳的存在;中心城区WSOC和TN日均浓度大于灵岩寺,同时发现中心城区TN日变化趋势与灵岩寺一致,WSOC变化不明显;水溶性二次离子(SO2-4、NO-3和NH+4)浓度相对较高,中心城区SO2-4/NO-3值比灵岩寺小,说明成都市机动车尾气是主要排放源。     

燃煤电厂排放细颗粒物的水溶性无机离子特征综述

当前我国面临严重的大气细颗粒物(PM2.5)污染,燃煤电厂是大气中PM2.5的重要来源之一.为了实现国家"十一五"和"十二五"规划对二氧化硫(SO2)和氮氧化物(NOx)的总量减排目标,燃煤电厂大规模安装烟气脱硫和脱硝设施,这虽然减少了气态污染物转化生成的二次PM2.5,但另一方面也会对烟气中PM2.5的物理化学特征产生影响,有可能增加一次PM2.5的排放.本文综述了燃煤电厂排放PM2.5及其水溶性离子的粒径分布特征,重点介绍了脱硫和脱硝这两种烟气处理设施对燃煤电厂排放PM2.5的影响原理及相关研究结果,特别是对细颗粒物中水溶性离子(如SO2-4、Ca2+和NH+4)的影响.在目前我国PM2.5污染十分严重和燃煤电厂大量安装脱硫和脱硝装置的背景下,定量研究脱硫和脱硝对PM2.5排放特征的影响具有十分重要的意义.     

青岛不同强度霾天气溶胶中二次无机离子的生成及粒径分布

于2015年9月至2016年2月在青岛近海连续收集了大气气溶胶分级样品,用离子色谱法分析了其中的水溶性无机离子组分,并讨论了不同强度霾天下气溶胶中二次无机组分的粒径分布,初步探索了霾天SNA的形成过程和影响因素.结果表明,气溶胶中NO_3~-、SO_4~(2-)、NH_4~+、NO_2~-和Cl~-的质量浓度变化范围分别是10.32~193.46、4.42~74.05、2.21~57.75、0.05~2.22和1.35~17.39μg·m~(-3),且SNA的质量浓度随霾污染程度的加剧明显增加.与非霾天相比,轻微、轻度、中度和重度霾天与非霾天相比,NO_3~-的质量浓度分别增加了55%、77%、240%和537%;SO_4~(2-)的质量浓度分别增加了4.7%、35%、77%和262%;NH_4~+的质量浓度分别增加了72%、83%、201%和526%.细粒径上的NO_3~-、SO_4~(2-)与其气态前体物NO_2、SO_2均有显著相关性,且与相对湿度、能见度、风速等气象条件相关性较好,说明细粒径SNA的生成是造成霾天能见度下降,形成空气污染的主要原因之一,同时,高浓度前体物、较大相对湿度、低风速都是影响霾天形成的重要因素.除轻微霾天外,其他不同强度霾天的SOR(硫氧化率)、NOR(氮氧化率)均大于非霾天,且随着霾程度的加剧,SOR、NOR都有明显的升高,尤其是0.43~0.65μm和0.65~1.1μm粒径段;在重度霾天,氮和硫的转化率平均为非霾天的1.5倍,说明细粒径上的硫酸盐和硝酸盐大部分是气-粒转化而来.NO_3~-、NH_4~+、NO_2~-和SO_4~(2-)主要存在于细粒径段,霾天下在细粒径上的比例都显著增大,NO_3~-和SO_4~(2-)在严重霾天所占比例最高,分别达到79.4%和74.4%.NO_3~-在非霾、轻微、轻度霾天时均呈双峰分布,峰值出现在0.43~0.65μm和3.3~4.7μm处,中度霾天时细粒子峰值移动到0.65~1.1μm,在重度霾天粒径分布变为0.65~1.1μm的单峰分布.SO_4~(2-)只在非霾条件下呈双峰分布,峰值出现在0.43~0.65μm和2.1~3.3μm粒径段,霾天下均是单峰分布,轻微和轻度霾天下峰值出现在0.43~0.65μm,中度和重度霾天下峰值在0.65~1.1μm处.NH_4~+呈单峰分布,在非霾和轻微霾天下峰值出现在0.43~0.65μm粒径段,轻度、中度和重度霾天下峰值均出现在0.65~1.1μm粒径段.     

Influence of haze pollution on water-soluble chemical species in PM2.5 and size-resolved particles at an urban site during fall

To investigate the influence of haze on the chemical composition and formation processes of ambient aerosol particles,PM_(2.5) and size-segregated aerosol particles were collected daily during fall at an urban site of Gwangju,Korea.During the study period,the total concentration of secondary ionic species(SIS) contributed an average of 43.9% to the PM_(2.5) ,whereas the contribution of SIS to the PM_(2.5) during the haze period was 62.3%.The NO_3 and SO~(2-)_4 concentrations in PM_(2.5) during the haze period were highly elevated,being 13.4 and 5.0 times higher than those during non-haze period,respectively.The PM,NO~-_3,SO~(2-)_4,oxalate,water-soluble organic carbon(WSOC),and humic-like substances(HULIS) had tri-modal size distributions peaks at 0.32,1.0,and 5.2 μm during the non-haze and haze periods.However,during the non-haze period they exhibited dominant size distributions at the condensation mode peaking at 0.32 μm,while on October 21 when the heaviest haze event occurred,they had predominant droplet mode size distributions peaking at 1.00 μm.Moreover,strong correlations of WSOC and HULIS with SO~(2-)_4,oxalate,and K+at particle sizes of 1.8 μm indicate that secondary processes and emissions from biomass burning could be responsible for WSOC and HULIS formations.It was found that the factors affecting haze formation could be the local stable synoptic conditions,including the weak surface winds and high surface pressures,the long-range transportation of haze from eastern China and upwind regions of the Korean peninsula,as well as the locally emitted and produced aerosol particles.     

成都市大气颗粒物粒径分布及水溶性离子组成的季节变化特征

利用Anderson冲击式分级采样器,于2012年2月~2013年1月在成都市城东成都理工大学校园内按月采集了不同粒径的大气颗粒物样品,分析了颗粒物样品的质量浓度以及9种水溶性离子含量.结果表明,采样期间成都市PM_(2.1)和PM_(11)的年平均浓度分别为(125.9±56.14)μg·m~(-3)和(224.5±83.64)μg·m~(-3),颗粒物浓度冬季最高,春季次之,秋季浓度最低;成都市水溶性离子浓度平均水平为37.15μg·m~(-3),其中检测的9种离子浓度从大到小顺序依次为SO_4~(2-)NO_3~-NH_4~+Ca~(2+)Cl~-Mg~(2+)K~+Na~+F~-,SO_4~(2-)、NO_3~-和NH_4~+占总水溶性离子的78%,是主要的离子组分.SO_4~(2-)、NO_3~-、NH_4~+呈单峰分布,其主要分布于细粒子中;Ca~(2+)和F~-也呈单峰分布,但是主要分布在粗粒子中;Cl~-和K~+粒径分布相似,Mg~(2+)和Na~+分布相似,均呈双峰分布.成都市冬、春季节粗、细颗粒物中的水溶性离子浓度均明显高于夏、秋季节.结合离子相关性分析,细颗粒物中的SO_4~(2-)、NO_3~-和NH_4~+可能主要以(NH_4)_2SO_4或NH_4HSO_4、NH_4NO_3的形式存在,而粗颗粒物中的主要离子组分SO_4~(2-)、NO_3~-和Ca~(2+)则可能以Ca(NO_3)2、CaSO_4等形式存在.主成分分析结果表明,颗粒物中水溶性离子主要来自二次过程、土壤扬尘、生物质燃烧和农业源.     

华西雨屏区典型人工林对降雨过程中NH_4~+-N和NO_3~--N的过滤作用

氮沉降已成为河流、湖泊及城市等生态系统的主要污染威胁因素之一,森林生态系统能从林冠、地被和土壤自上而下截留过滤大气降雨中的NH+4-N和NO-3-N,是区域大气环境污染生态防治的重要途径.选取华西雨屏区几种典型人工林森林生态系统为研究对象,采用定位监测与室内分析相结合的研究方法,于2011年4—12月对大气降水、穿透雨、树干茎流、地表径流和地下渗滤NH+4-N和NO-3-N的含量与分配进行了研究.结果表明:观测期内40次降雨总雨量为492.72 mm,NH+4-N和NO-3-N的总沉降量分别为13.248 kg·hm-2和16.320 kg·hm-2;3种人工林林冠层对NH+4-N和NO-3-N的过滤能力表现为香樟林混交林柳杉林,而地表和土壤层均表现为混交林香樟林柳杉林;无林地、香樟林、柳杉林和混交林生态系统无机氮截留过滤净输入量分别为19.557、44.079、42.331、64.896 kg·hm-2,对无机氮的综合过滤作用表现为混交林香樟林柳杉林无林地.这些结果说明华西雨屏区合理配置混交林能更加有效地降低大气氮沉降对生态系统的影响.     

赣江流域土地利用方式对无机氮的影响

赣江无机氮是鄱阳湖氮素输入的主要来源,查明流域土地利用方式对赣江无机氮的影响对鄱阳湖的富营养化防治具有重要意义.基于2013年1月和6月对赣江干流和主要支流NO-3-N和NH+4-N的浓度测定,通过不同空间尺度和土地类型等级划分,利用相关分析和冗余分析研究土地利用方式对赣江无机氮浓度的影响.结果表明,不同空间尺度的子流域划分方式对赣江流域土地利用类型与无机氮浓度的相关性有较大影响.与NO-3-N相比,选择更小的子流域划分尺度有助于分析土地利用方式对NH+4-N浓度的影响;在温度较高、微生物活动强烈的季节,也应选择更小的子流域划分尺度研究土地利用方式对无机氮浓度的影响.一级土地利用分类下,赣江流域水田、水域对NO-3-N起"源"作用,林地、草地起"汇"作用;居民建设用地对NH+4-N起"源"作用,林地起"汇"作用.二级土地利用分类下,水田中丘陵水田是赣江NO-3-N浓度的主要来源,其次为平原水田,山区水田最小.居民建设用地中的城镇用地和其它工矿建设用地是赣江NH+4-N的主要污染来源,农村用地是NO-3-N的主要污染来源.     

Cu(II), Fe(III) and Mn(II) combinations as environmental stress factors have distinguishing effects on Enterococcus hirae

Pollution by various heavy metals as environmental stress factors might affect bacteria. It was established that iron (Fe(III)), manganese (Mn(II)) and copper (Cu(II)) ion combinations caused effects on Enterococcus hirae that differed from the sum of the effects when the metals were added separately. It was shown that the Cu^2 +–Fe^3 + combination decreased the growth and ATPase activity of membrane vesicles of wild-type E. hirae ATCC9790 and atpD mutant (with defective F_oF₁-ATPase) MS116. Addition of Mn^2 +–Fe^3 + combinations within the same concentration range had no effects on growth compared to control (without heavy metals). ATPase activity was increased in the presence of Mn^2 +–Fe^3 +, while together with 0.2 mmol/L N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), ATPase activity was decreased compared to control (when only 0.2 mmol/L DCCD was present). These results indicate that heavy metals ion combinations probably affect the F_OF₁-ATPase, leading to conformational changes. Moreover the action may be direct or be mediated by environment redox potential. The effects observed when Fe^3 + was added separately disappeared in both cases, which might be a result of competing processes between Fe^3 + and other heavy metals. These findings are novel and improve the understanding of heavy metals ions effects on bacteria, and could be applied for regulation of stress response patterns in the environment.     

Rhizosphere effect of different aquatic plants on phosphorus depletion

A series of pot experiments with Alternanthera philoxeroides, Typha latifolia, Sagittaria sagittifolia and Phragmites communis were conducted to assess the phosphorus depletion effect in the rhizosphere. The ratio of root to shoot, root morphology, phosphorus uptake efficiency and phosphorus utilization efficiency were analyzed. An obvious variation in phosphorus concentrations between the rhizosphere soil and non-rhizosphere soil was observed. The water-soluble P contents in the rhizosphere soil of A. philoxeroides, T. latifolia, S. sagittifolia and P. communis were reduced by 81%, 42%, 18% and 16%, respectively, compared with that in the non-rhizosphere soil. A. philoxeroides had the highest phosphorus uptake efficiency (1.32 mg/m), while T. latifolia achieved the effective phosphorus depletion by the strong rooting system and the high phosphorus uptake efficiency (0.52 mg/m). T. latifolia not only used phosphorus to produce biomass economically, but also adjusted carbon allocation to the roots to explore the soil for more available phosphorus. A. philoxeroides and T. latifolia were more effective in depleting phosphorus in the rhizosphere than S. sagittifolia and P. communis.
