Active capping demonstration in the Anacostia river,Washington, D.C.

An active capping demonstration project in Washington, D.C., is testing the ability to place sequestering agents on contaminated sediments using conventional equipment and evaluating their subsequent effectiveness relative to conventional passive sand sediment caps. Selected active capping materials include: (1) AquaBlokTM, a clay material for permeability control; (2) apatite, a phosphate mineral for metals control; (3) coke, an organic sequestration agent; and (4) sand material for a control cap. All of the materials, except coke, were placed in 8,000‐ft test plots by a conventional clamshell method during March and April 2004. Coke was placed as a 1.25‐cm layer in a laminated mat due to concerns related to settling of the material. Postcap sampling and analysis were conducted during the first, sixth, and eighteenth months after placement. Although postcap sampling is expected to continue for at least an additional 24 months, this article summarizes the results of the demonstration project and postcap sampling efforts up to 18 months. Conventional clamshell placement was found to be effective for placing relatively thin (six‐inch) layers of active material. The viability of placing high‐value or difficult‐to‐place material in a controlled manner was successfully demonstrated with the laminated mat. Postcap monitoring indicates that all cap materials effectively isolated contaminants, but it is not yet possible to differentiate between conventional sand and active cap layer performance. Monitoring of the permeability control layer indicated effective reductions in groundwater seepage rates through the cap, but also showed the potential for gas accumulation and irregular release. All of the cap materials show deposition of new contaminated sediment onto the surface of the caps, illustrating the importance of source control in maintaining sediment quality. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

城市道路生物滞留带溢流口设计方法探讨

随着生物滞留技术在海绵城市建设中的广泛应用,生物滞留带的优化设计已成为研究热点之一,其中溢流口的合理设计对生物滞留带的雨水径流控制效果和稳定运行具有重要意义。在实际工程应用中,由于缺少溢流口相关水力特性及设计计算方法的系统研究,往往直接把城市道路雨水口移至生物滞留带作为溢流口。然而生物滞留带溢流口与城市道路雨水口水力特征存在较大区别。针对上述问题,通过对生物滞留带溢流口水力特性的分析,计算了常见溢流口的过流能力,并举例对其工程应用选型及设计方法进行了分析,以期为生物滞留带溢流口的优化设计提供依据。     

大纵坡城市道路透水边带截留能力试验

道路是城市重要的交通纽带,一旦发生积水内涝,将导致城市交通瘫痪,甚至危及生命财产安全,特别是山地城市道路普遍存在纵坡大、雨水口截留效率低等突出问题,发生积水内涝和马路洪水的风险较高。针对上述问题,提出了利用透水边带提高大纵坡城市道路雨水径流截留效率的方法。在实验室搭建了城市单车道物理试验模型(比例1∶1),采用人工模拟降雨方法,系统研究了不同透水面积比、不同重现期降雨条件下透水边带对雨水径流的截留效率,并与传统道路雨水口截留能力进行了比较。试验结果表明:相同透水面积比条件下,雨水径流截留能力随着重现期的增大而减小;相同重现期条件下,雨水径流截留能力随着透水面积比的增加而增大,在重现期P=5 a时,透水边带面积比从12.5%增加到50%,雨水径流截留率从72.3%增加到79.3%。与传统雨水口截留能力相比,增加透水边带后雨水径流截留能力可提高30%左右。因此,大纵坡城市道路在不影响交通安全的条件下,可根据道路空间布局特征,通过设置透水边带来提高雨水径流的截流效率。     

Preparation of hydrophobic hierarchical pore carbon–silica composite and its adsorption performance toward volatile organic compounds

Carbon–silica materials with hierarchical pores consisting of micropores and mesopores were prepared by introducing nanocarbon microspheres derived from biomass sugar into silica gel channels in a hydrothermal environment.The physicochemical properties of the materials were characterized by nitrogen physical adsorption(BET),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and thermogravimetric(TG),and the adsorption properties of various organic waste gases were investigated.The results showed that microporous carbon materials were introduced successfully into the silica gel channels,thus showing the high adsorption capacity of activated carbon in high humidity organic waste gas,and the high stability and mechanical strength of the silica gel.The dynamic adsorption behavior confirmed that the carbon–silica material had excellent adsorption capacity for different volatile organic compounds(VOCs).Furthermore,the carbon–silica material exhibited excellent desorption characteristics:adsorbed toluene was completely desorbed at 150℃,thereby showing superior regeneration characteristics.Both features were attributed to the formation of hierarchical pores.
