Multivariate statistical analysis of sediment data (information matrix 123 × 16) from the Gulf of Mexico, USA shows that
the data structure is defined by four latent factors conditionally called “inorganic natural”, “inorganic anthropogenic”,
“bioorganic” and “organic anthropogenic” explaining 39.24%, 23.17%, 10.77% and 10.67% of the total variance of the data system,
respectively. The receptor model obtained by the application of the PCR approach makes it possible to apportion the contribution
of each chemical component for the latent factor formation. A separation of the contribution of each chemical parameter is
achieved within the frames of “natural” and “anthropogenic” origin of the respective heavy metal or organic matter to the
sediment formation process. This is a new approach as compared to the traditional “one dimensional” search with a limited
number of preliminary selected tracer components. The model suggested divides natural from anthropogenic influences and allows
in this way each participant in the sediment formation process to be used as marker of either natural or anthropogenic effects.

The present paper deals with the application of classical and fuzzy principal components analysis to a large data set from
coastal sediment analysis. Altogether 126 sampling sites from the Atlantic Coast of the USA are considered and at each site
16 chemical parameters are measured. It is found that four latent factors are responsible for the data structure (“natural”,
“anthropogenic”, “bioorganic”, and “organic anthropogenic”). Additionally, estimating the scatter plots for factor scores
revealed the similarity between the sampling sites. Geographical and urban factors are found to contribute to the sediment
chemical composition. It is shown that the use of fuzzy PCA helps for better data interpretation especially in case of outliers. 相似文献

A data set (48×19) consisting of Danube river water analytical data collected at Galati site, Romania, during a four-year
period has been treated by principal components analysis (PCA). The PCA indicated that seven latent factors (“hardness”, “biochemical”,
“waste inlets”, “turbidity”, “acidity”, “soil extracts” and “organic wastes”) are responsible for the data structure and explain
over 80 % of the total variance of the system. Its complexity is further proved by the application of multiple linear regression
analysis on the absolute principal components scores (APCS) where the contribution of each natural or anthropogenic sources
in the factor formation is shown. The apportioning makes clear that each variable participates to a different extent to each
source and, in this way, no pure natural or pure anthropogenic influence could be determined. No specific seasonality for
the variables in consideration is found.

The sustainable development rule implementation is tested by the application of chemometrics in the field of environmental
pollution. A data set consisting of Cd, Pb, Cr, Zn, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Fe content in bottom sediment samples collected in the
Odra River (Germany/Poland) is treated using cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and source apportionment
techniques. Cluster analysis clearly shows that pollution on the German bank is higher than on the Polish bank. Two latent
factors extracted by PCA explain over 88 % of the total variance of the system, allowing identification of the dominant “semi-natural”
and “anthropogenic” pollution sources in the river ecosystem. The complexity of the system is proved by MLR analysis of the
absolute principal component scores (APCS). The apportioning clearly shows that Cd, Pb, Cr, Zn and Cu participate in an “anthropogenic”
source profile, whereas Fe and Mn are “semi-natural”. Multiple regression analysis indicates that for particular elements
not described by the model, the amounts vary from 4.2 % (Mn) to 13.1 % (Cr). The element Ni participates to some extent to
each source and, in this way, is neither pure “semi-natural” nor pure “anthropogenic”. Apportioning indicates that the whole
heavy metal pollution in the investigated river reach is 12510.45 mg·kg−1. The contribution of pollutants originating from “anthropogenic sources” is 9.04 % and from “semi-natural” sources is 86.53

The environmetrical analysis carried out has indicated that the short-term water quality survey may give a very important
information on the latent factors influencing the water quality of Yantra river basin. The principal components analysis carried
out reveals that at least four principal components are necessary for multivariate statistical modeling of the water quality
– combination of natural and anthropogenic influences (“mixed” factor) reflecting parameters such as water hardness, marine
influence, organic pollution; typical anthropogenic influences (“anthropogenic” factor) explaining the metal contamination
of the river water; everyday wastes, usually N-containing pollutants such as nitrates, nitrites or ammonia, form the “N-containing
wastes” factor and a “temperature” factor formed by typical physical parameters such as water and air temperature.
The formation of these special features of the river waters from Yantra basin is also confirmed by the results of cluster
analysis (variable clustering) where the content of the significant clusters of the variables is the same as the content of
the principal components modeling over 75% of the total variance of the system. Additionally, the cluster analysis of the
objects has proved that the water quality during both sampling traverses is very stable and reproducible. Few exceptions are
observed due to momentary local pollution in an industrial area along the river stream. Comparison with standard requirements
for water quality has indicated that the Yantra river waters are of high quality and could be used after minor pretreatment
as potable water sources.
The environmetrical approaches applied reveal a specific information concerning the river water quality. In this way the ecological
problem treated has not a local importance but suggests a strategy for estimation of similar ecosystems in global sense.

This study deals with the application of chemometric approaches (cluster analysis and principal components analysis) to a
potable water monitoring demonstrated on a data set from the region of Kavala, Greece, being analysed according to the standard
instructions and directives of the European Union. It is shown that the data classification by cluster analysis and data structure
modeling by principal components analysis reveals similar results, namely four different patterns of water source sites are
identified depending on the geographical site location (near to Nestos river, near to Strimon river, elevated sites and near-to-coast
sites). Three latent factors, explaining over 85% of the total variance, are responsible for the data structure as follows:
“water acidity (anthropogenic)”, “water hardness (natural)” and the “marine factor”. Their importance for the different sites
is related to the site location. Finally, it is recommended to involve the environmetric data treatment as a substantial standard
procedure in assessment of the quality of water intended for human consumption.

The present paper deals with chemometric interpretation of soil analysis data collected from 31 sampling sites in the region
of Kavala and Drama, Northern Greece. The determination of 16 different chemical and physicochemical characteristics is principally
needed for prognosis of the land treatment and fertilizing. The study carried out indicates that the application of multivariate
statistical approaches could reveal new and specific information about sampling sites. It has been found that they could be
divided into four general patterns: pattern 1 contains dominantly inorganic and alkaline soil samples from semi-mountainous
regions in close proximity to the seacoast; pattern 2 indicates the same soil sample type and regional location as pattern
1 but is far from the coastal line; pattern 3 includes samples from sites from the plains with organic and alkaline soils
with close proximity to the coast; pattern 4 resembles pattern 3 as soil type but involves samples from sites far from the
shore. Further, six latent factors were identified, conditionally named “structural”, “acidic”, “nutritional”, “salt”, “microcomponents”
and “organic”. Finally, an apportioning procedure was carried out to find the source contributions in the measured analytical
values. In this way the routine estimation of the soil quality could be improved. 相似文献

This study deals with the application of several multivariate statistical methods (cluster analysis, principal components
analysis, multiple regression on absolute principal components scores) for assessment of soil pollution by heavy metals. The
sampling was performed in a heavily polluted region and the chemometric analysis revealed four latent factors, which describe
84.5 % of the total variance of the system, responsible for the data structure. These factors, whose identity was proved also
by cluster analysis, were conditionally named “ore specific”, “metal industrial”, “cement industrial”, and “steel production”
factors. Further, the contribution of each identified factor to the total pollution of the soil by each metal pollutant in
consideration was determined. 相似文献

Multivariate statistical analysis of sediment data (input matrix 122 × 15) collected from 122 sampling sites from the western coastline of the USA and analyzed for 15 analytes indicates that the data structure could be explained by four latent factors. These factors are conditionally named “anthropogenic”, “organic”, “natural”, and “hot spots”. They explain over 85% of the total variance of the data system, which is an acceptable value for the PCA model. The receptor models obtained after regression of the mass on the absolute principal components scores ensures reliable estimation of the contribution of each possible natural or anthropogenic source to the mass of each chemical component. It can be concluded that the region of interest reveals a different pattern of pollution compared with the eastern coastline treated statistically in a previous study. 相似文献

Up to now the content of the organic halides in sediments was measured as extractable organic halides compounds by different
methods including microcoulometric titration one. We describe a procedure for microcoulometric determination of total organic
halide pollutants by using a direct combustion of the sediments into the microcoulometric system furnace. An accelerated removal
of the inorganic chlorides by reaction with potassium nitrate using ultrasonic radiation was attained. The procedure was validated
for analysis of bottom sediments from natural and anthropogenic sources. The repeatability RSD = 8.5%, the expanded relative
uncertainty U (n = 7, P = 95%, k = 2) = 6.4%, the reproducibility RSD was within the range 10.0–7.3%, the average recovery R = 97.6% and method LOD = 11 mg kg−1 Cl.

The severe interference of a number of metallic ions found in brines, marine sediments and sea water in the determination
of lithium is demonstrated. Calcium, iron and sodium significantly depressed the absorption signal on lithium in an air/acetylene
flame. Aluminium, magnesium and strontium up to 1500, 1000 and 200 μg/mL, respectively, showed no interference in the determination
of lithium under the same conditions. Potassium produced some suppression of the lithium signal at levels in excess of 1500
μg/mL. Experimental data were examined using the factorial design method. Interference was demonstrated in two synthetic samples
(models of “brine” and “marine sediments” ) and natural marine sediment. It was possible to eliminate all interferences using
a higher temperature (nitrous oxide/acetylene flame). In addition, by using the standard addition method the interference
disappeared, which confirmed the interference as a proportional systematic error.

The electrophoretic mobility of a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel containing carboxylic groups has been measured as a function of the ionic strength, between
0.1 and 100 mM NaCl, over the temperature range 2545 ∘C. The mobility data obtained have been evaluated using different models, including the porous-sphere, the soft-plate and
the soft-sphere models as well as the hard-sphere model developed by Henry and later refined by O'Brien and White. The “porous”
or “soft” behaviour is evident at lower temperatures, whereas at higher temperatures none of the models can fully explain
the observed behaviour. It is suggested that the discrepancies at higher temperatures can be partly ascribed to the neglect
of the relaxation effect in the “soft” models.

Characterization of groundwater humic and fulvic acids of different origin by GPC with UV/Vis and fluorescence detection 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was applied for recognizing the origin of groundwater humic and fulvic acids. GPC was
performed with Fraktogel TSK HW-50 in 0.1 M NaCl, pH 8.5 (0.05 M phosphate buffer), 1 mM EDTA, with 10% by volume methanol
added. Humic substances from groundwaters and sediments of four different aquifer systems in Germany were isolated, purified
and characterized. Both UV/Vis and fluorescence detection were applied. UV/Vis detection was found to be more powerful in
identifying differences between the various humic and fulvic acids. The four aquifer systems investigated (“Gorleben”, “Fuhrberg”,
“Franconian Albvorland” and “Munich”) differed from one another with respect to hydrological and geochemical conditions. The
results showed that the GPC-elution behavior reflects the geochemical environment and origin (source material and generation
process) of aquatic humic and fulvic acids.

Equilibrium thermodynamics is one of the pillars which support safety analyses of repositories for radioactive waste. The
research summarized in this review deals with approaches to resolve the problems related to thermodynamic equilibrium constants
and solubility of solid phases in the field of radioactive waste management. The results have been obtained at the Paul Scherrer Institut between 1995 and 2005 and comprise the scientific basis of the author’s habilitation thesis in the field of nuclear
environmental chemistry. The topics are grouped according to three different levels of problem solving strategies: (1) Critical
and comprehensive reviews of the available literature, which are necessary in order to establish a reliable chemical thermodynamic
database that fulfils the requirements for rigorous modeling of the behavior of the actinides and fission products in the
environment. (2) In many case studies involving inorganic and simple organic ligands a serious lack of reliable thermodynamic
data is encountered. There, a new modeling approach to estimate the effects of these missing data was applied. This so called
“backdoor approach” begins with the question, “What total concentration of a ligand is necessary to significantly influence
the speciation, and hence the solubility, of a given trace metal?” (3) In the field of natural organics, mainly humic and
fulvic acids, we face an ill-defined problem concerning the molecular structure of the ligands. There, a pragmatic approach
for performance assessment purposes was applied, the “conservative roof” approach, which does not aim to accurately model
all experimental data, but allows estimates of maximum effects on metal complexation by humic substances to be calculated. 相似文献

Recently a basis-set-superposition-error-free second-order perturbation theory was introduced based on the “chemical Hamiltonian
approach” providing the full antisymmetry of all wave functions by using second quantization. Subsequently, the “Heitler–London”
interaction energy corresponding to the sum of the zero- and first-order perturbational energy terms was decomposed into different
physically meaningful components, like electrostatics, exchange and overlap effects. The first-order wave function obtained
in the framework of this perturbation theory also consists of terms having clear physical significance: intramolecular correlation,
polarization, charge transfer, dispersion and combined polarization–charge transfer excitations. The second-order energy,
however, does not represent a simple sum of the respective contributions, owing to the intermolecular overlap. Here we propose
an approximate energy decomposition scheme by defining some “partial Hylleraas functionals” corresponding to the different
physically meaningful terms of the first-order wave functions. The sample calculations show that at large and intermediate
intermolecular distances the total second-order intermolecular interaction energy contribution is practically equal to the
sum of these “physical” terms, while at shorter distances the overlap-caused interferences become of increasing importance.

Solid-state potentiometric sensors based on the chemical modulation of the work function of organic semiconductors are discussed.
The theory of the chemical work function modulation is briefly reviewed. There are several sensor configurations, in which
this transduction principle can be employed. First is the Kelvin probe, second is the chemically sensitive field-effect transistor
in which the conventional metal gate of the silicon-based transistor has been replaced by an organic semiconductor. Chemical
modulation of work function enters also into the operation of the third type of sensor discussed in this review, on “organic
field-effect transistor”. It is shown that in reality such sensors are “field-modulated chemiresistors”, rather than potentiometric
sensors. 相似文献

Conducting poly(3-methylthiophene) electrodes were electrochemically prepared. The resulting polymer films were modified
with an inorganic complex, ferrocene. The incorporation of the ferrocene/ferrocenium moiety into the polymer film resulted
in enhanced charge transfer towards the oxidation of some organic molecules of biological interest. The electrochemical response
of the complex-containing polymer electrode was compared to that of the unmodified polymer electrode and that of the substrate.
Apparent diffusion coefficients of the redox species were estimated from the cyclic voltammetric data for different biological
molecules at the ferrocene-containing polymer electrode. Infra-red spectroscopic measurements for the “as-grown” films revealed
the presence of the inorganic complex within the polymer. The modified polymer electrode showed noticeable enhancement for
the charge transfer across the film interface and can be used as an electrochemical sensor for biological compounds.

Results of colloid chemical characterisation and stability measurements on electrostatically stabilised latex dispersions
made from emulsions of styrene and 4,4′-azobis-(4-cyanovaleric acid) are reported. The deviant stability of the hydrophobic
polystyrene particles at low pH and low ionic strength is related to a proton “tunable” hydration layer surrounding weakly
charged particles. The idea implies the formation of a polymer-supported surface phase that does not have any clear boundary,
either towards the polymer moiety or in the direction of the bulk solution. The formation of the surface phase is controlled
by Coulombic, hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions and by the contribution from the water structure at the hydrophobic
and hydrophilic domain of the polymer particles. Negative charges on the hydrophobic surface badly interfere with the water
structure at the hydrophobic moiety of the particle, whereas positive or uncharged surface groups do not damage the balance
of free and clustered water molecules at the interface. Because the hydrophobic nature of the surface changes with the degree
of dissociation of the surface charges, the degree of hydrophobicity of the carboxylic latices can be adjusted by changing
the pH; therefore, it may be concluded that the hydrated and discharged carboxylic particle is apparently more hydrophobic
relative to the ionised one. Thus, our concept can also explain differences in the hydrophobicity of colloidal polymer particles.

Fifty samples of natural surface soils with high but variable organic matter content were analyzed for 13 elements (Na, Al,
K, Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Sr, Ba, La) by INAA. The same samples were analyzed for the “total-recoverable” fraction of
these elements by ICP-OES after decomposition with 7M HNO3, and the results are compared. The data are discussed separately for two groups of samples with organic matter contents of
respectively >80% and <70%. In the group with < 70 % organic matter the “total-recoverable” fractions show the following sequence
(% of total): Co (83)>Mn (77)>La (60)>Fe=Zn (53)>V (33)>Cr (29)>Sc (25)>Al=Ba (17)>Sr (13)>K (5)>Na (2). The results are in
good agreement with corresponding literature data for mineral soils in the case of Al, K, Sc, V, Cr, Fe, and La. In the case
of Na, Mn, Co, Zn, Sr, and Ba the present surface soils showed significantly higher “total-recoverable” fractions than the
previously studied subsoils. Possible reasons for these differences are discussed. INAA remains a convenient reference technique
for determination of total concentrations with the rapidly increasing use of strong mineral acids in environmental studies
of elements.
