A comparison on the phytoremediation ability of triazophos by different macrophytes

The strategy of choosing suitable plants should receive great performance in phytoremediation of surface water polluted by triazophos(O,O-diethyl-O-(1-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-base) sulfur phosphate, TAP), which is an organophosphorus pesticide widespread applied for agriculture in China and moderately toxic to higher animal and fish. The tolerance, uptake, transformation and removal of TAP by twelve species of macrophytes were examined in a hydroponic system and a comprehensive score(CS) of five parameters(relative growth rate(RGR), biomass, root/shoot ratio, removal capacity(RC), and bio-concentration factor(BCF)) by factor analysis was employed to screen the potential macrophyte species for TAP phytoremediation. The results showed that Thalia dealbata, Cyperus alternifolius, Canna indica and Acorus calamus had higher RGR values, indicating these four species having stronger growth capacity under TAP stress. The higher RC loading in Iris pseudacorus and Cyperus rotundus were 42.11 and 24.63 μg/(g fw·day), respectively. The highest values of BCF occurred in A. calamus(1.17), and TF occurred in Eichhornia crassipes(2.14). Biomass and root/shoot ratio of plant showed significant positive correlation with first-order kinetic constant of TAP removal in the hydroponic system, indicating that plant biomass and root system play important roles in remediation of TAP. Five plant species including C. alternifolius, A. calamus, T. dealbata, C. indica and Typha orientalis, which owned higher CS, would be potential species for TAP phytoremediation of contaminated water bodies.

农药企业场地苯系物污染风险及调控对策

苯系物是一类重要的环境污染物,可通过呼吸道、消化道和皮肤进入人体而产生危害,其毒性主要表现在对人体致畸、致突变和致癌等方面.以河北省某农药企业为例,采用吹扫捕集气质联用、固体吸附/热脱附-气相色谱和EPA健康风险评价模型,对场地内苯系物的分布及人体健康风险进行了综合分析,并据此提出相应的风险调控对策建议.结果表明,厂区内土壤、灰尘、空气、地下水及废水中均不同程度检出苯系物,生产区内灰尘中苯系物含量较高(7.33 mg.kg-1),其中甲苯的含量(5.64 mg.kg-1)超过了加拿大工业用地标准.设定10 a、20 a、30 a这3个工作年限情景,相应的总非致癌危害指数分别为4.19×10-3、8.25×10-3和1.22×10-2,均小于1;苯的致癌危害指数依次是1.70×10-7、3.34×10-7和4.92×10-7,小于10-6,表明该企业场地苯系物对职工尚没有造成明显的致癌和非致癌风险,但是随着工作年限的增加,职工受到健康危害的风险程度加大.基于研究结果,提出了厂区环境质量改善和人员安全防护的风险对策建议.     

Environmental fate of pesticides used in Australian viticulture: Behaviour of dithianon and vinclozolin in the soils of the South Australian Riverland

The red calcareous earth soils of the South Australian Riverland produce more than one-third of the grapes used in Australian winemaking. As part of on-going investigations into pesticide transport in Australian vineyard soils, the movement of the fungicides dithianon and vinclozolin through such strongly alkaline soils was investigated. Small, undisturbed soil cores were extracted from the inter-row topsoil of a vineyard adjacent to the River Murray, approximately 10 km S.W. of Overland Corner, South Australia. The vines were grown in a deep (1 – 4 m) reddish brown, strongly alkaline, sandy loam with a low organic carbon content (1 – 2 %). Surface fluxes of pesticide were applied at the maximum recommended application rates to the surface of the cores, which were then irrigated, and pesticide residues in the leachate determined by HPLC. No leaching of either dithianon or vinclozolin occurred. Dithianon was immobilised in the top 2 cm of the soil. Dithianon concentrations were low ( 0 – 37 % applied dose) suggesting that rapid degradation of this compound occurs in these soils (63 – 100 % degradation in 10 days). Extremely low concentrations of vinclozolin were found throughout the soil core profiles (0.05 – 1.4 % applied dose) suggesting that this fungicide was somewhat mobile, but also that it too was unstable in such alkaline soils (> 98 % degradation in 10 days). These results suggest that the irrigated vineyard soils of this region are unlikely to be prone to leaching of dithianon or vinclozolin, and therefore that groundwater supplies in this area are unlikely to be at any significant risk of contamination through viticultural use of these compounds.     

剑湖沉积物中有机氯农药的分布特征与风险评估

以典型断陷式高原湖泊剑湖为采样点,采集剑湖表层沉积物样品31个,入湖河流表层沉积物样品23个和潜在污染源地表土样品24个,分析OCPs(有机氯农药)的空间分布特征、污染源及迁移途径,评估其生态风险.研究表明:①剑湖表层沉积物中检测出5种OCPs,含量为异狄氏剂酮异狄氏剂醛狄氏剂七氯δ-HCH,总OCPs含量为0～1.92×10~3 ng·g~(-1)(干重),均值为(340±400) ng·g~(-1).②七氯、异狄氏剂醛和异狄氏剂酮的检出率高,含量最高值分别为17.9、50.6和1.85×10~3 ng·g~(-1).三者分布均呈现西南湖湾区北部湖湾区湖心区的特征,其中七氯和异狄氏剂醛的分布具有显著相关性(R~2=0.760).③工厂类潜在污染源的污染贡献大于农田和居民区.七氯的主要潜在污染源为金龙河支流中上游的煤矿开采区(624 ng·g~(-1));异狄氏剂醛为狮河下游的木雕加工区(4.32×10~3 ng·g~(-1));异狄氏剂酮为流域南部的采石场(3.07×10~3 ng·g~(-1)).3种OCPs的主要迁移途径为入湖河流输入,大气沉降可能为其另一迁移途径.④采用U.S.EPA(美国环保署)临时沉积物基准和NOAA(美国国家海洋和大气管理局)沉积物质量基准分别对上述3种OCPs进行风险评估,结果表明生态风险异狄氏剂酮七氯异狄氏剂醛,异狄氏剂酮可能会对剑湖的生态环境造成严重危害.     

土壤As动态影响下枸杞质量评价及环境风险预测

选择柴达木盆地诺木洪农场3种类型农田进行20 cm表层土壤砷（As）含量检测。第1种为新开垦原生地,第2种为20年耕种地,第3种为50年耕种地,检测As含量分别为16.29、14.90、14.04 mg·kg^-1。3种土壤As含量均达到无公害食品标准（25 mg· kg^-1）和绿色食品标准（20 mg·kg^-1）。多年耕种并没有造成农田表层土壤As积累。农田灌溉用河水中未检出As。生产中使用的22种农药、肥料均检测到As,其中15种杀虫剂、杀真菌剂、除草剂、植物激素等,每年输入土壤As 4513.59 mg·hm^-2;7种肥料每年输入土壤As 258015.24 mg·hm^-2。施肥是土壤中As输入的重要来源,最主要的输入源是磷酸二铵,占到50％;其次为复合肥、鸡粪和有机肥。每年随作物输出As总量为4380 mg·hm^-2。模拟田间灌溉,进行土壤柱淋漓试验,农田20 cm表层土壤每年随灌溉淋漓输出As为245230.65 mg·hm^-2,这与随着肥料、农药输入量几乎相等。表层土壤As处在一个输入、输出相对稳定的动态平衡状态。从土壤中输出的As,随灌溉水输入到水系统中,继而造成水系统As的积累,最终将影响到地区农业的可持续发展。     

China-PEARL和PRZM-GW模型潍坊市场景农药地下水风险评估研究

农药地下水暴露模型China-PEARL已开始在我国农药地下水风险评估中应用。本文利用China-PEARL潍坊市场景数据,为PRZM-GW构建了潍坊市场景。在潍坊市场景下,利用2个模型计算了56种农药在5种作物上共计145种施用方式下的预测环境浓度（PEC）值,利用商值法（RQ）进行风险评估。结果显示有8种农药共13种施用方式在潍坊市场景下存在不可接受的地下水风险。其中,2个模型均显示有不可接受风险的农药是多菌灵和氟磺胺草醚。2个模型PEC值比较结果显示,PRZM-GW的农药风险评估趋势与China-PEARL一致性高,从而验证了China-PEARL的可信性。模型PEC值影响因素分析显示,土壤有机碳分配系数（Koc）对2个模型输出影响最大,可将Koc〉400L·kg^-1作为判断某种农药预测浓度〈0.1μg·L^-1经验性指标。2个模型的PEC值和土壤好氧半衰期的对数呈线性关系,当土壤好氧半衰期〉10d时,模型的PEC值随土壤好氧半衰期的增大而迅速增高。水解半衰期为PRZM-GW模型输入项,决定了PRZM-GW模型模拟的农药浓度随年变化趋势。水中溶解度是China-PEARL的输入项,但对模型PEC值影响很小。     

Sorption of carbendazim and linuron from aqueous solutions with activated carbon produced from spent coffee grounds: Equilibrium,kinetic and thermodynamic approach

Spent coffee grounds (SCG) have been used for the production of activated carbon (AC) by impregnation with different ratios of phosphoric acid at 600?°C, Xp (H₃PO₄/coffee): 3:1^30%, 4:1^30%, 3:1^50% and 4:1^50%. The obtained AC was characterized by BET, FTIR and SEM. BET surface area corresponds to 803.422 m² g^?1. The influences of the main parameters such as contact time, the pesticides initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH and temperature on the efficiency of separation process were investigated during the batch operational mode. Results were modeled by adsorption isotherms: Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isotherms, which gave satisfactory correlation coefficients. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated from the Langmuir isotherms were 11.918?mg g^?1 for carbendazim and 5.834?mg g^?1 for linuron at room temperature. Adsorption kinetics of carbendazim and linuron have been studied by the pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order and the intraparticle diffusion model. The results of adsorption kinetics have been fitted the best by pseudo-second-order model. The resulted data from FTIR characterization pointed to the presence of many functional groups on the AC surface. SCG adsorbent, as an eco-friendly and low-cost material, showed high potential for the removal of carbendazim and linuron from aqueous solutions.     

Quality of Meliponinae honey: Pesticides residues,pollen identity,and microbiological profiles

This study aims at evaluating the quality of honey of Melipona quadrifasciata quadrifasciata Tetragonisca angustula and Scaptotrigona depilis. Pollen analysis was performed to identify the floral resources used for the production of honey, and 19 pollen types were identified. Microbiological analyses identified the presence of coliforms, molds, and yeasts, but Clostridium botulinum was not found. Using the modified “Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe” method followed by ultra‐high performance liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry determination, eight pesticides were detected in the honey of T. angustula and only two in the honey from S. depilis. The honey of M. q. quadrifasciata did not present pesticide residues. The data pointed out the relevance of good practices to avoid the contamination of honey with sources of microbiological contaminants, which may impair the product's safety for human consumption.
