冷却水处理中臭氧的阻垢作用研究

试验研究了臭氧在循环冷却水处理中的阻垢作用.结果表明,在蒸馏水中,臭氧不能直接参与碳酸盐平衡体系,不影响碳酸钙沉淀的晶型.但是,在工业水质条件下,通入臭氧后,可以影响所形成的碳酸钙晶体的稳定性.在冷却水中,臭氧与某些能和Ca2 发生配位作用的物质发生氧化还原反应,造成体系中醛基和羧基的总数增加,使水对钙的配位能力增加,致使水中的Ca2 浓度增加,从而产生一定的阻垢效果.臭氧可以氧化循环冷却水中的有机物,生成二氧化碳,水溶液中二氧化碳浓度的增加,可使碳酸钙转化为碳酸氢钙,这样就使冷却水中Ca2 浓度增加.当水中不含有机物时,臭氧没有阻垢作用.     

Community Tolerance Comparison As A New and Sensitive Ecotoxicological Tool

The demonstration of an increased tolerance to a pollutant is direct evidence that this pollutant has presented a selection pressure upon a population or community. Recently, pollution-induced community tolerance (PICT) has been applied to the benthic community in a metal-enriched estuary to establish causal linkage between observed changes in community structure and composition and the presence of copper. This paper describes the rationale and methodology behind applying PICT to the marine benthic environment, and shows it to be a sensitive ecotoxicological tool. It also presents a case study, demonstrating how a PICT investigation has aided the interpretation of changes in a benthic community, establishing a causal linkage between these changes in the community and the presence of a specific pollutant.     

Soil-ecological conditions of the zone of salt waste dumping and plant adaptation to them

Technogenic surface formations near salt waste dumps are subject to salinization by sodium chloride. Synanthropic representatives of local flora that have adapted to salinization are characterized by increased concentrations of salinizing ions; redistribution of chlorides, with their predominant accumulation in above-ground organs; selective absorption with respect to sodium, chloride, and potassium ions; and decreased activity of hydrogen ions in cells.     

入侵藤本薇甘菊的耐盐能力

薇甘菊Mikania micrantha Kunth为原产中南美洲的入侵藤本植物,现已在全球热带和亚热带地区照成严重的生态问题。野外观察发现薇甘菊已在珠三角沿海植被中滋生。为揭示薇甘菊的耐盐能力及其对滨海盐生植被的潜在危害性,分别对薇甘菊种子、根系和茎干在不同盐度胁迫下的响应进行了测定。在珠三角地区采集了薇甘菊3个批次的种子,并选取珠江三角洲6种常见植物（菊科假臭草Eupatorium catarium、藿香蓟Ageratum conyzoides、野茼蒿Crassocephalum crepidioides、鬼针草Bidens pilosa、翅果菊Pterocypsela indica和旋花科小花假番薯Ipomoea triloba）作为对照,测定了它们在不同NaCl盐度（质量分数）胁迫下的萌发率和幼苗生长;为揭示薇甘菊种子是否可由海水传播,将薇甘菊和对照植物假臭草、藿香蓟和鬼针草在不同盐度条件下浸泡不同时间后解除胁迫再观测其种子萌发率;为确定薇甘菊能否在滨海盐土中无性繁殖,分别对薇甘菊的根系和茎干在盐水浸泡下的植株生长进行了测定。研究结果表明：1）总体而言,薇甘菊3个种群在≤0.6%盐度胁迫下的种子萌发率均与对照组无显著差异,个别种群的这一阈值可高达1.5%,明显高于其他对照植物;同一盐度胁迫条件下,薇甘菊幼苗根系和苗高生长受抑制程度明显低于对照植物。2）即使经高达3.0%盐度胁迫浸泡长达12 d后,薇甘菊、藿香蓟和假臭草种子的萌发率也没有受到显著影响,而鬼针草种子的萌发率有明显下降;四种植物受浸泡后萌芽的幼苗生长均正常。3）薇甘菊根系受0.5%盐度胁迫时没有植株死亡,但苗高增长仅为对照组的53.3%;根系在1.0%盐度胁迫下有95%的植株能存活至少25 d,但苗高增长仅为对照的18.9%;根系在≥1.5%盐度胁迫下薇甘菊无法存活。4）被清水浸泡的薇甘菊茎茎叶均能存活且在全部被浸泡的节上萌芽。当薇甘菊茎干受≥1.0%盐水浸泡时,受浸泡的叶片全部死亡,在1.0%、2.0%和3.0%盐度胁迫下受试茎第21天的死亡率分别为42.9%、40.9%和86.4%。以上结果表明薇甘菊对盐生生境具一定的适应能力,可能通过种子萌发或无性繁殖扩张的方式对滨海盐生植被构成威胁,应当引起重视。     

孔雀草对镉胁迫的响应及其积累与分布特征

采用营养液培养法研究了不同浓度的Cd(0、0.01、0.05、0.1、0.2、0.3、0.4 mmol·L-1)对孔雀草叶片光合色素和丙二醛含量以及Cd积累量、亚细胞与化学形态分布的影响.结果表明,随着营养液Cd浓度的增加,叶片光合色素含量呈先升后降趋势,丙二醛含量则呈线性递增趋势,高浓度Cd处理(≥0.1 mmol·L-1)对孔雀草产生了显著的胁迫响应.Cd主要贮存于可溶组分中,根系中占50.91%—66.40%,叶片中占39.09%—60.52%;其次为细胞壁,细胞器中的镉比例较低.随着Cd处理浓度的增加,Cd在根系细胞壁中的贮存比例呈增加趋势.液胞区隔化和细胞壁固持是孔雀草应对Cd胁迫的重要耐性机制.根系中的Cd主要以乙醇提取态存在,占27.62%—70.46%,叶片中Cd主要以去离子水提取态和氯化钠提取态存在,两者合计占58.91%—71.09%.叶片中活性态Cd含量显著低于根系,显著降低了地上部Cd的积累,也显著降低了Cd对地上部的胁迫作用.

Benzene degradation in waste gas by photolysis and photolysis-ozonation: experiments and modeling

A photochemical model of benzene degradation compares well with experimental data obtained in the Lab. 62 reactions were needed to fully describe benzene degradation. A feasibility study shows that the photolysis of benzene is a cost-effective process. Experimental data and modeling results show that the degradation efficiency will increase when the combination of UV light and ozone is used. The degradation of benzene, a carcinogenic air pollutant, was studied in a gas-phase photochemical reactor with an amalgam lamp emitting ultraviolet light at 185 and 254 nm. Efficient benzene degradation (>70%) was possible for benzene mass flow rates of up to 1.5 mg·min⁻¹. Adding ozone allowed benzene mass flow rates of up to 5 mg·min⁻¹ to be treated with the same efficiency. In terms of energy consumption, ozone doubles the efficiency of the process. A comprehensive mechanistic simulation model was developed incorporating a chemical kinetics model (62 reactions involving 47 chemical species), a material balance model incorporating diffusion and flow, a flow velocity model, and a light field model. The model successfully predicted the efficiency of the reactor, generally within 20%, which indicates that the model is sound, and can be used for feasibility studies. The prediction of the reactor efficiency in the presence of ozone was less successful, with systematically overestimated efficiency. Condensation of reaction products in the reactor is thought to be the main cause of model inaccuracy. Both experimental data and model predictions show that there is a synergistic effect between ozonation and ultraviolet degradation.     

Enhancement of the polynomial functions response surface model for real-time analyzing ozone sensitivity

• The calculation process and algorithm of response surface model (RSM) were enhanced. • The prediction errors of RSM in the margin and transition areas were greatly reduced. • The enhanced RSM was able to analyze O₃-NO_x-VOC sensitivity in real-time. • The O₃ formations were mainly sensitive to VOC, for the two case study regions. Quantification of the nonlinearities between ambient ozone (O₃) and the emissions of nitrogen oxides (NO_x) and volatile organic compound (VOC) is a prerequisite for an effective O₃ control strategy. An Enhanced polynomial functions Response Surface Model (Epf-RSM) with the capability to analyze O₃-NO_x-VOC sensitivities in real time was developed by integrating the hill-climbing adaptive method into the optimized Extended Response Surface Model (ERSM) system. The Epf-RSM could single out the best suited polynomial function for each grid cell to quantify the responses of O₃ concentrations to precursor emission changes. Several comparisons between Epf-RSM and pf-ERSM (polynomial functions based ERSM) were performed using out-of-sample validation, together with comparisons of the spatial distribution and the Empirical Kinetic Modeling Approach diagrams. The comparison results showed that Epf-RSM effectively addressed the drawbacks of pf-ERSM with respect to over-fitting in the margin areas and high biases in the transition areas. The O₃ concentrations predicted by Epf-RSM agreed well with Community Multi-scale Air Quality simulation results. The case study results in the Pearl River Delta and the north-western area of the Shandong province indicated that the O₃ formations in the central areas of both the regions were more sensitive to anthropogenic VOC in January, April, and October, while more NO_x-sensitive in July.
