Organics in wheat and rye straw pulp bleaching and combined mill effluents (II) ecotoxicological screening

Potential environmental effects of the discharge of industrial wastewater from manufacturing of bleached straw pulp have been studied. Bleached neutral sulphite straw pulping results in discharges of both black cooking and spent bleaching liquors. Time proportional samples were taken from the combined bleaching effluent and the combined mill effluent, (i) Mutagenic activity of the two samples in an Ames’ test, and (ii) acute toxicity of the combined mill effluent sample towards the photosynthetic activity of natural marine phytoplankton from the receiving waters were determined. Also, acute toxicity was determined of the slowly biodegradable or persistent organics remaining after aerobic stabilization of the sample towards (ii) photosynthetic activity of natural phytoplankton, (iii) mussels (Mytilus edulis), (iv) eels (Anguilla anguilla) and, (v) crustacean (Nitocra spinipes); and furthermore, (vi) reproduction test of the crustacean and (vii) growth inhibition test of the marine diatom (Phaeodactylum tricornutum) were performed. Mutagenicity emission factors (MEF's) and toxicity emission factors (TEF's) were calculated to classify the effluents. Combined mill effluent sample showed a mutagenic activity per t₉₀ of one fourth the activity of a kraft pulp bleaching effluent, and the inhibition of the photosynthesis of natural phytoplankton was significant up to 2600 times dilution. After aerobic stabilization, inhibition was observed up to 400 times dilution. Other effects of the combined mill effluent sample were only significant below 40 times dilution. The bleaching effluent showed a mutagenic activity per t₉₀ comparable to kraft bleaching effluents. Other effects were only significant below 20 times dilution.     

引黄济青调水沿程氮污染物的迁移转化研究

2011年4—6月在引黄济青工程输水沿程11个采样点进行4次取样,分析氮污染物的迁移转化。结果表明,总氮在沿程呈下降的趋势,但不同月份存在差别;硝酸盐氮是氮污染物的主要存在形式,与总氮呈正相关;氨氮和亚硝酸盐氮质量浓度较低,沿程有一定波动,但变化较小。沉砂池对硝酸盐氮有一定的去除作用,但对总氮的作用在不同月份存在差异。农业面源污染、植物残体分解、泥沙沉积作用、植物同化作用、微生物作用等因素会影响引黄济青沿程氮污染物质量浓度变化。     

电子束辐照降解水中氧氟沙星的研究

应用电子直线加速器初步探索了水体中氧氟沙星的辐照降解影响条件及降解机理.对初始浓度为20mg/L的氧氟沙星水溶液进行了辐照降解研究,分别选取了0.5kGy,1.0kGy,2.0kGy,3.0kGy,5.0kGy共5个剂量组,以研究辐照吸收剂量对降解效率的影响,同时分别对氧氟沙星水溶液进行空气饱和（水合电子清除剂）、氮气饱和、添加0.005mol/L及0.05mol/L氯化钠、添加0.05mol/L叔丁醇（羟基自由基清除剂）、添加0.005mol/L碳酸钠、添加0.005mol/L硫酸钠等方法进行处理,以探究降解过程中辐照水体产生自由基对氧氟沙星降解的贡献率.结果表明,以空气饱和进行处理,可提高氧氟沙星的降解率,辐照吸收剂量为2.0kGy时降解率可达99%.反之,加入氯化钠、叔丁醇和碳酸钠抑制了氧氟沙星的降解,加入硫酸钠则影响不大,表明羟基自由基在氧氟沙星降解中起关键作用.通过应用超高效液相色谱-质谱（UPLC-MS）对降解产物的分析鉴定,推测出了氧氟沙星的降解转化途径.     

水泥窑共处置含Cr废物中Cr在不同温度下的形态转化

将Na₂CrO₄加入生料中模拟含Cr入窑物料〔掺加比例为0.048%(以w计)〕,以探索水泥窑共处置含Cr废物过程中Cr的形态转化. 将含Cr入窑物料在不同温度条件下进行煅烧,消解煅烧样品以分析Cr在不同温度下的残留率并利用XANES(X射线吸收近边结构光谱)技术分析煅烧样品中Cr的存在形态. 结果表明:对应900、1000、1100、1200、1300和1450℃煅烧条件下,熟料中Cr的残留率分别为88.2%、70.7%、73.7%、67.2%、69.5%和67.8%. 由于窑尾温度为1050～1100℃,并且Cr的残留率在1100℃较高,因此从窑尾添加含Cr废物可以减少水泥窑共处置含Cr废物过程中的Cr逸放. 在900～1450℃煅烧条件下,所有样品中的Cr主要以CrO₃、Cr₂O₃和CaCrO₄的形式存在. 1000℃煅烧温度下存在K₂Cr₂O₇,但不存在K₂CrO₄;900℃和1100～1300℃煅烧温度下有K₂CrO₄存在,但不存在K₂Cr₂O₇. 1100～1450℃煅烧温度下,Cr元素进入到水泥熟料的主要矿物中,并主要以CrO₃和Cr₂O₃的形式与其他物质结合生成了较为复杂的Ca₄A₁₆O₁₂CrO₄、Ca₆Al₄Cr₂O₁₅等.      

剧烈人类活动区经济发展与环境污染水平关系--以广东省东莞市为例

近年来,经济发展与环境污染之间的关系成了社会经济发展的热点问题。本研究选取东莞市1990-2010年经济与环境数据,探究环境库兹涅茨曲线演替轨迹,得出研究时段内东莞市环境库兹涅茨曲线大体呈“倒U型”特征,其中“倒U型”峰值大约出现在2007年人均GDP为4.51万元时;工业废水、工业废气以及工业废渣排放量3项指标的环境库兹涅茨曲线,分别呈现弱的“倒U型”、“倒U型上升阶段”、“倒U型＋倒U型上升阶段”特征。结果表明,东莞市环境库兹涅茨曲线特征与污染物排放量、产业结构、环保政策及投资等有较为密切的关系。结论建议：东莞市可以通过调整产业结构、加大环境保护投资力度等措施促进经济转型,加速“倒U型”曲线后半段的形成。     

Disasters as an ideological strategy for governing neoliberal urban transformation in Turkey: insights from Izmir/Kadifekale

Since the turn of the twenty‐first century, Turkish cities have undergone large‐scale change through a process referred to as urban transformation, involving, notably, the demolition of inner‐city low‐income settlements. The official authorities and business circles have resorted to various forms of discourse to justify these projects, which have led to the deportation of a significant number of people to peripheral areas. The discourse of ‘natural disasters’, for example, suggests that urban transformation is necessary to protect people from some pending event. Probably the most effective application of this discourse has occurred in Izmir, where the risk posed by ‘landslides’ has played a critical role in the settlement demolitions conducted in the huge inner‐city neighbourhood of Kadifekale. By examining the case of Kadifekale, this paper provide some insights into how ‘natural disasters’ serve as a discourse with which to legitimise the neoliberal logic entrenched in the urban transformation process in Turkey.     

铅和铬污染包气带及再释放规律的实验研究

利用有机玻璃柱模拟包气带,研究了Pb2+和Cr6+在污染包气带时的迁移转化规律,以及雨水淋洗受污染包气带中重金属再释放规律.结果表明:包气带受重金属污染过程中,铅和铬在粗砂包气带中的迁移速率分别为7.25cm/d和0.4cm/d,远大于其在细砂包气带中的迁移速率4.46cm/d和0.36cm/d,且Cr2O72-形式存在的六价铬在包气带中的迁移速率比的铅离子迁移速率大10倍以上;在模拟实验中,溶液在通过包气带区域时六价铬还原为三价铬的反应很弱,通过包气带的水样中三价铬未检出,并且包气带介质中三价铬含量(0.006mg/kg)几乎为零;雨水淋洗铬和铅污染的粗砂和细砂包气带模拟研究中铅淋洗溶出率为0.056%和0.112%,铬淋洗溶出率为62.33%和40.36%.因此,Cr2O72-在砂质包气带中的迁移性很强且容易从介质表面淋洗去除,而铅在介质中的迁移性较差且很难从介质中淋洗去除掉.

Complexity,continuity and change: livelihood resilience in the Darfur region of Sudan

Darfur farming and pastoralist livelihoods are both adaptations to the environmental variability that characterises the region. This article describes this adaptation and the longer‐term transformation of these specialised livelihoods from the perspective of local communities. Over several decades farmers and herders have experienced a continuous stream of climate, conflict and other shocks, which, combined with wider processes of change, have transformed livelihoods and undermined livelihood institutions. Their well‐rehearsed specialist strategies are now combined with new strategies to cope. These responses help people get by in the short term but risk antagonising not only their specialist strategies but also those of others. A combination of factors has undermined the former integration between farming and pastoralism and their livelihood institutions. Efforts to build resilience in similar contexts must take a long‐term view of livelihood adaptation as a specialisation, and consider the implications of new strategies for the continuity and integration of livelihood specialisations.
