武汉市2014-2017年大气污染物分布特征及其潜在来源分析

利用武汉市2014—2017年大气污染物（SO₂、NO₂、CO、O₃、PM_2.5和PM₁₀）和气象要素的观测数据,分析了大气污染物的变化特征及其影响因素.使用HYSPLIT模式计算了影响武汉市的主要气团类型,并利用潜在源区贡献（PSCF）和浓度权重轨迹（CWT）分析方法,揭示了研究期内武汉市不同大气污染物的潜在源区分布及其贡献特性.结果表明,武汉市2014—2017年空气质量逐年好转,SO₂、O₃、PM_2.5和PM₁₀的浓度呈逐年下降的趋势,但NO₂和CO的浓度先下降后上升.2017年SO₂、O₃、PM_2.5、PM₁₀、NO₂和CO的浓度分别为9.6、50.8、52.7、89.2、47.5 μg·m^-3和1.1 mg·m^-3,分别比2014年降低了64.3%、23.0%、24.7%、18.8%、3.5%和5.9%.大气污染物存在显著的季节变化和月变化.大气污染物在四个季节中日变化类似,SO₂和O₃均为单峰型分布,NO₂、CO、PM_2.5和PM₁₀均为双峰型分布.武汉市空气污染以PM_2.5为主,随着污染程度的加剧PM_2.5/PM₁₀的值逐渐增大,在空气质量为严重污染时,PM_2.5/PM₁₀高达90%,比空气质量为优时高了31.34%.局地气团（45%）和来自山西、陕西和河南一带的西北气团（12.1%）下大气污染物浓度较高.大气污染物的潜在源区贡献（WPSCF）和浓度权重轨迹（WCWT）的较大值主要集中在武汉市本地及其周边地区,局地污染对武汉市大气污染物的贡献较大,但不同大气污染物受到排放源分布和停留时间等影响其WPSCF和WCWT的分布范围不同.     

基于土地利用回归模型的北京市2013-2019年大气污染时空变化分析

在近年来大力控制大气污染的背景下,通过历史观测数据分析污染物的时空变化特征,有助于总结以往控制的成效,并为制定下一阶段措施提供科学依据.本研究基于北京市大气环境质量监测站点2013—2019年数据,分析了6种常规大气污染物（PM_2.5、NO₂、O₃、PM₁₀、SO₂、CO）的时间变化趋势,并构建了2013和2019年PM_2.5、NO₂和O₃ 3种主要污染物的土地利用回归模型（Land use regression model, LUR）,对它们详细的空间分布及变化特征进行了分析.结果表明,污染物浓度在过去7年中发生了重大变化,除O₃增长,其余5种污染物下降明显.不同城区间的差异在迅速缩小,污染物浓度在空间上趋于均匀.PM_2.5呈明显的南高北低,城区NO₂浓度显著高于郊区和山区,O₃在主城区尤其是道路附近浓度较低.约50%的区域PM_2.5下降30 μg·m^-3以上,约40%的区域NO₂下降幅度为5~15 μg·m^-3,道路附近O₃升幅在20 μg·m^-3以内.研究结果揭示出北京市及其周边地区大气污染治理近年来取得了卓有成效的成绩,但同时也面临着O₃浓度升高的新挑战.     

2020年初疫情管控对山东省空气质量影响的模拟

利用2020年初新冠疫情对人类生产、生活的一次自然冲击及由此导致的大气污染状况变化,研究了空气质量对污染物减排及气象因素的响应关系.通过对疫情管控前（1月15~23日）和疫情控制关键期（1月24日~2月7日）这2个阶段空气质量对比分析发现,疫情期间山东省除O₃浓度上升外,PM₁₀、PM_2.5、NO₂、SO₂及CO浓度分别降低72.6 μg·m^-3、47.4 μg·m^-3、25.6 μg·m^-3、3.0 μg·m^-3和0.5 mg·m^-3;降幅分别为45.86%、41.24%、58.00%、17.71%和31.40%;RAMS-CMAQ模拟显示,疫情期气象扩散条件改善导致的PM₁₀、PM_2.5、NO₂、SO₂和CO浓度改善幅度为26.04%、33.03%、28.35%、43.27%和23.29%,人为减排造成的各污染物浓度降低幅度为19.82%、8.21%、29.65%、-25.56%和8.12%.疫情期间O₃浓度上升20.51%,气象因素和人为活动的影响分别占10.47%和10.04%.结果表明一次污染物对减排响应更敏感,二次污染物对减排响应有一定时滞性且受气象因素影响更显著,臭氧浓度对污染物减排线性响应关系不明显,总体呈负相关,说明臭氧的控制需探索科学的污染物减排比例.

据天水市2015-2017年大气污染物（SO₂、NO₂、CO、O₃、PM_2.5和PM₁₀）的监测数据及气象资料,分析了天水市大气污染物的浓度变化特征,并利用排放源清单和HYSPLIT模型对污染物来源进行了解析.结果表明：①天水市空气质量有所下降,总体优良率达84.9%.SO₂、NO₂、CO均达标,污染物以颗粒物和O₃为主.②一次污染物SO₂、NO₂、CO、PM_2.5和PM₁₀浓度具有相似的季节变化和日变化特征,冬季最高,夏季最低,日变化呈早晚双峰型.二次污染物O₃夏季浓度最高,冬季最低,日变化呈单峰型.③天水市空气质量主要受污染物的本地排放和外来输送的影响,本地民用和工业部门对SO₂、CO、PM_2.5和PM₁₀的贡献最大,交通和工业部门对NO_x的分担率最高,民用部门是CO的最大排放源;西北和东部气流是污染物外来的最主要输送路径.此外,污染物在城市大气中的稀释、扩散和转移也受当地气象因素（气温、降水、风向等）的影响.     

珠江三角洲大气光化学氧化剂(Ox)与PM2.5复合超标污染特征及气象影响因素

基于粤港澳珠江三角洲区域空气监测网络12个监测子站的大气污染物数据,梳理2013~2017年大气光化学氧化剂O_x（NO₂+O₃）与PM_2.5质量浓度的变化趋势.O_x+PM_2.5复合超标污染定义为NO₂和PM_2.5质量浓度日平均值以及O₃浓度日最大8 h平均值（O₃ MDA8）同时超过二级浓度限值,分析了不同类型站点复合超标污染的时空分布特征以及气象因素影响.结果表明,2013~2017年珠三角PM_2.5年均质量浓度由（44±7）μg·m^-3下降至（32±4）μg·m^-3,实现PM_2.5连续3 a达标.O_x年均质量浓度由2013年（127±14）μg·m^-3下降至2016年（114±12）μg·m^-3,2017年反弹至（129±13）μg·m^-3,O₃浓度上升明显（10 μg·m^-3）.以O₃为首要污染物的污染过程占比由2013年33%增多至2017年78%,多个城市同时发生污染的区域特征明显.研究时段内O_x+PM_2.5复合超标污染事件共发生60次,主要在城区站点（78%）和郊区站点（22%）.秋季发生复合超标污染天数最多（52%）,是因为强太阳辐射有利于臭氧生成,大气氧化性增加,进而促进了PM_2.5二次生成.造成珠三角复合超标污染的天气形势主要为高压出海型（43%）、高压控制型（30%）和热带低压型（27%）.就具体气象因素而言,气温在20~25℃且相对湿度在60%~75%的范围内时,复合超标污染事件发生占比最高（22%）.在O₃重污染过程中,夜间高湿和低风速使得NO₂和PM_2.5浓度显著上升,日间高温加剧了复合超标污染.     

典型石化企业排放空气质量影响模拟研究

基于惠州市大亚湾区2017年大气污染源排放清单,利用WRF-CMAQ模型系统量化评估了大亚湾区某典型石化企业在关停和增产排放情景下对周边空气质量的影响.清单结果显示该企业2017年SO₂、NO_x、PM₁₀、PM_2.5、CO和VOCs的排放量分别为212 、1744 、455 、359 、1458 和6446 t,在严格落实等量替代及减排措施后,该石化企业虽然产能翻倍,但VOCs排放量同比2017年显著减少了30%,其它污染物排放量增加了6%~19%.模拟结果显示2017年该石化企业排放对大亚湾区NO₂、PM₁₀、PM_2.5和O₃的浓度贡献分别为0.91、0.64、0.54和-0.08 μg·m^-3,完全关闭该企业排放后对周边站点NO₂改善效果最大（可使邻近管委会子站NO₂浓度下降1.24 μg·m^-3,下降百分比为5.10%）,但由于NO的滴定效应,该企业NO_x减排对周边管委会子站和霞涌子站的O₃浓度均有轻微负贡献;该石化企业的增产改造对周边O₃浓度降低影响明显,周边站点中O₃浓度最高可下降2.45 μg·m^-3（下降幅度为1.72%）,大亚湾区O₃浓度整体也可下降1.45 μg·m^-3.此外,受秋冬季不利扩散条件以及主导上风向污染传输影响,该企业在1月和10月对管委会子站NO₂、PM₁₀和PM_2.5的浓度贡献较大,由于冬季低温导致光化学反应自由基活性降低,该企业在1月对管委会子站O₃浓度负贡献显著.     

2013年中国海域船舶大气污染物排放对空气质量的影响

基于2013年中国海域船舶排放清单和空气质量数值模拟平台（WRF-SMOKE-CMAQ）,利用敏感性分析方法定量识别了中国海域船舶排放对沿海地区空气质量的影响特征. 结果表明：船舶排放对不同污染物的贡献特征空间差异显著,就SO₂、NO₂和PM_2.5而言,在沿海省份的年均贡献率分别为5%、7%、2%（1.1、1.7、0.9 μg·m^-3）,其中,珠三角和长三角地区受影响较大,SO₂、NO₂和PM_2.5贡献分别可达30%、31%、8%（7.7、9.2、2.7 μg·m^-3）和14%、13%、4%（3.7、5.3、1.9 μg·m^-3）.其次,船舶排放对空气质量影响季节性差异显著,尤其表现在PM_2.5的空间分布上,三大城市群中,船舶排放对污染物贡献的季节间最大差异倍数为SO₂（1.3~2.0）,NO₂（1.2~4.0）,PM_2.5（1.8~7.5）.值得关注的是,船舶排放对PM_2.5的浓度贡献表现出了明显的区域性（长距离传输）和复合性.本研究结果,一方面弥补了我国船舶排放对空气质量影响的量化特征认识不足,另一方面可为后续船舶排放的健康影响及控制费效分析等评估研究提供数据支撑.     

厦门湾空气质量对新冠疫情管控的响应

通过对厦门湾城市群在COVID-19封锁前后6周内（2020-01-11~2020-02-21）的空气污染物浓度变化进行分析,以确定影响本区域空气质量的主要人为污染源.在春节假期与封锁叠加期间,SO₂、NO₂、CO、PM₁₀和PM_2.5浓度相比于节前1周的下降幅度分别为6%~22%、53%~70%、34%~48%、47%~64%和53%~60%,而O₃浓度变化没有一致的规律性;与2018~2019年历史同期相比,PM_2.5、PM₁₀、CO和NO₂的下降幅度更大,但SO₂的下降幅度相当;在复工复产后,NO₂的反弹幅度最大（38%~138%）,远高于SO₂（2%~42%）,显示交通源相对于固定源更易受到疫情管控的影响;春节后风速增大和降水增多也为SO₂、NO₂和PM的下降提供了正向影响.利用反距离插值权重法,得到管控前后厦门湾城市群不同污染物的空间分布变化特征,显示NO₂浓度高值区的变化与交通源高度相关,CO和SO₂空间分布特征保持稳定,复工后PM_2.5和PM₁₀在人口与路网密集区变化不明显,而在工地相对集中区域有明显上升,O₃空间分布的低值区与NO₂的高值区具有较好的空间匹配性,显示NO₂对O₃滴定作用明显,可为进一步O₃污染减排措施的制定提供参考.     

上海市大气污染对感冒疾病相对危险度的影响

探讨上海市主要大气污染PM₁₀、PM_2.5、NO₂和O₃的日平均浓度变化以及上海市大气污染对感冒疾病的影响.本文汇总了2008年1月1日~2010年12月31日上海市大气污染、气象要素,以及感冒日就诊人数数据,采用时间序列的Possion半参数广义相加模型,通过平滑样条函数控制长期趋势、"星期几效应"及气象因素等混杂因素的影响,分析上海市大气污染物与居民健康的暴露-反应关系,并按年龄进行分层分析,定量评估上海市大气污染对感冒日就诊人数的影响及滞后效应.结果表明,上海市大气污染物PM₁₀、NO₂、O₃、PM_2.5浓度每增加一个IQR,感冒疾病发生的相对危险度为1.0240（1.0233~1.0246）、1.0206（1.0201~1.0212）、0.9393（0.9384~0.9402）、1.0080（1.0069~1.0086）,大气污染物PM₁₀、NO₂、O₃、PM_2.5浓度每增加10 μg·m^-3,感冒日就诊人数分别增加0.5%、1.0%、-2.0%、0.2%.在多污染模型中,在引入其他污染物后,NO₂和PM_2.5的结果较单污染模型是基本减小的,PM₁₀和O₃的结果是基本增大的.上海市大气污染对感冒疾病的发生有影响.     

Effects of two sludge application on fractionation and phytotoxicity of zinc and copper in the soil

The potential harm of heavy metals is a primary concern in application of sludge to the agricultural land. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of two sludges on fractionation of Zn and Cu in soil and their phytotoxicity to pakchoi. The loamy soil was mixed with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% (by weight) of digested sewage sludge (SS) and composted sludge (SC). The additions of both sludges caused a significant raise in all fractions, resulting in that exchangeable (EXCH) and organic bound (OM) became predominance of Zn and organic bound Cu occupied the largest portion. There was more available amount of Zn and Cu in SS treatments than SC treatments. During the pot experiment, the concentration of Zn in EXCH, carbonate (CAR) and OM and Cu in EXCH and OM fractions decreased in all treatments, so their bioavailability reduced. Germination rate and plant biomass decreased when the addition rate was high and the best yield appeared in 20% mixtures at the harvest of pakchoi. The two sludges increased tissue contents of Zn and Cu especially in the SS treatments. Zn in pakchoi was not only in relationship to ΔEXCH and ΔCAR forms but also in ΔOM forms in the sludge-soil mixtures. Tissue content of Cu in pakchoi grown on SC-soils could not be predicted by ΔEXCH. These correlation rates between Zn and Cu accumulation in pakchoi and variation of different fractions increased with time, which might indicate that sludges represented stronger impacts on the plant in long-term land application.     

Intraspecific differences in effects of co-contamination of cadmium and

A hydroponic experiment was carried out to study intraspecific differences in the effects of different concentrations of cadmium (Cd)(0-10 mg/L) and arsenate (As(V)) (0-8 mg/L) on the growth parameters and accumulation of Cd and As in six wheat varieties Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11, Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8. The endpoints of wheat seedlings, including seed germination,biomass, root length and shoot height, decreased with increasing the Cd and As concentrations. Significant differences in seed germination, biomass, root length, shoot height and the accumulation of Cd and As were observed between the treatments and among the varieties (p ＜ 0.05). The lethal dosage 50% were about 20, 80, 60, 60, 80 and 20 mg As/L for Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11,Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8, respectively, and the corresponding values for Cd were about 30, 80, 20, 40, 60 and 10 mg Cd/L, respectively. Among the six varieties, Duokang-1 was found to be the most resistant to Cd and As toxicity, and Zhongmai-8 was the most sensitive to Cd and As co-contamination. The resistance of the six varieties was found dependant on the seedling uptake of Cd and As. Duokang-1 was the most suitable for cultivation in Cd and As co-contaminated soils.     

Toxic effects of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination on nifH gene in soil

Toxic effects of two agrochemicals on nifH gene in agricultural black soil were investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） and sequencing approaches in a microcosm experiment. Changes of soil nifH gene diversity and composition were examined following the application of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination. Acetochlor reduced the nifH gene diversity （both in gene richness and diversity index values） and caused changes in the nifH gene composition. The effects of acetochlor on nifH gene were strengthened as the concentration of acetochlor increased. Cluster analysis of DGGE banding patterns showed that nifH gene composition which had been affected by low concentration of acetochlor （50 mg/kg） recovered firstly. Methamidophos reduced nifH gene richness that except at 4 weeks. The medium concentration of methamidophos （150 mg/kg） caused the most apparent changes in nifH gene diversity at the first week while the high concentration of methamidophos （250 mg/kg） produced prominent effects on nifH gene diversity in the following weeks. Cluster analysis showed that minimal changes of nifH gene composition were found at 1 week and maximal changes at 4 weeks. Toxic effects of acetochlor and methamidophos combination on nifH gene were also apparent. Different nifH genes （bands） responded differently to the impact of agrochemicals： four individual bands were eliminated by the application of the agrochemicals, five bands became predominant by the stimulation of the agrochemicals, and four bands showed strong resistance to the influence of the agrochemicals. Fifteen prominent bands were partially sequenced, yielding 15 different nifH sequences, which were used for phylogenetic reconstructions. All sequences were affiliated with the alpha- and beta-proteobacteria, showing higher similarity to eight different diazotrophic genera.     

Arsenic uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal maize （Zea mays L.） grown in an arsenic-contaminated soil with added phosphorus

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus mosseae) and phosphorus (P) addition (100 mg/kg soil) on arsenic (As) uptake by maize plants (Zea mays L.) from an As-contaminated soil were examined in a glasshouse experiment.Non-mycorrhizal and zero-P addition controls were included.Plant biomass and concentrations and uptake of As,P,and other nutrients,AM colonization,root lengths,and hyphal length densities were determined.The results indicated that addition of P significantly inhibited root colonization and development of extraradical mycelium.Root length and dry weight both increased markedly with mycorrhizal colonization under the zero-P treatments,but shoot and root biomass of AM plants was depressed by P application.AM fungal inoculation decreased shoot As concentrations when no P was added,and shoot and root As concentrations of AM plants increased 2.6 and 1.4 times with P addition,respectively.Shoot and root uptake of P,Mn,Cu,and Zn increased,but shoot Fe uptake decreased by 44.6%,with inoculation, when P was added.P addition reduced shoot P,Fe,Mn,Cu,and Zn uptake of AM plants,but increased root Fe and Mn uptake of the nonmycorrhizal ones.AM colonization therefore appeared to enhance plant tolerance to As in low P soil,and have some potential for the phytostabilization of As-contaminated soil,however,P application may introduce additional environmental risk by increasing soil As mobility.     

Degradation of metabolites accumulated of benzo[a]pyrene by coupling Penicillium Chrysogenum with KMnO4

Several main metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene （BaP） formed by Penicillium chrysogenum, Benzo[a]pyrene-1,6-quinone （BP 1,6- quinone）, trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene （BP 7,8-diol）, 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene （3-OHBP）, were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. The three metabolites were liable to be accumulated and were hardly further metabolized because of their toxicity to microorganisms. However, their further degradation was essential for the complete degradation of BaP. To enhance their degradation, two methods, degradation by coupling Penicillium chrysogenum with KMnO4 and degradation only by Penicillium chrysogenum, were compared; Meanwhile, the parameters of degradation in the superior method were optimized. The results showed that （1） the method of coupling Penicillium chrysogenum with KMnO4 was better and was the first method to be used in the degradation of BaP and its metabolites; （2） the metabolite, BP 1,6-quinone was the most liable to be accumulated in pure cultures; （3） the effect of degradation was the best when the concentration of KMnO4 in the cultures was 0.01% （w/v）, concentration of the three compounds was 5 mg/L and pH was 6.2. Based on the experimental results, a novel concept with regard to the bioremediation of BaP-contaminated environment was discussed, considering the influence on environmental toxicity of the accumulated metabolites.     

Impact of atrazine and nitrogen fertilizers on the sorption of chlorotoluron in soil and model sorbents

Sorption of chlorotoluron in ammonium sulfate, urea and atrazine multi-solutes system was investigated by batch experiments. The results showed application of nitrogen fertilizers to the soil could affect the behavior of chlorotoluron. At the same concentration of N, sorption of chlorotoluron decreased as the concentration of atrazine increased on the day 0 and 6 in soil, respectively. The sorption of chlorotoluron increased from 0 to 6 d when soils were preincubated with deionized water, ammonium sulfate and urea solution for 6 d. That indicated incubation time was one of the most important factors for the sorption of chlorotoluron in nitrogen fertilizers treatments. The individual sorption isotherms of chlorotoluron in rubbery polymer and silica were strictly linear in single solute system, but there were competition sorption between pesticides or between pesticides and nitrogen fertilizers. That indicated the sorption taken place by concurrent solid-phase dissolution mechanism and sorption on the interface of water-organic matter or water-mineral matter.     

Distribution and ecological effect of mercury in Laogang landfill, Shanghai, China

Laogang landfill near Shanghai is the largest landfill in China, and receives about 10000 t of daily garbage per day, Samples of topsoil and plants were analyzed to evaluate mercury pollution from the landfill. For topsoil samples, there were significant correlations among total mercury （HgT）, combinative mercury （Hgc） and gaseous mercury （HgG）, and content of total organic carbon （TOC）, but, no significantly relationship was found between Hg content and filling time. Hg content changes in vertical profiles with time showed that the average Hgv of profiles 1992, 1996, and 2000 was similar, but their average HgG was quite different. HgT was significantly correlated with Hgc in profile 1992 and 2000, and Hgv was significantly correlated with Hg6 in profile 1996. HgG/Hgv ratio in profile samples decreased in the order of （HgG,/HgT）1992〉（HgG/HgT）1996〉〉（HgG/HgT）2000. A simple outline of Hg release in landfill could be drawn： with increasing of filling time, degradation undergoes different biodegradation, accordingly, gaseous mercury goes through small, more, and small proportion to total mercury. Distribution of Hg in plants was inhomogeneous, following the order of leaf〉root〉stem. The highest value of leaf may be associated with higher atmospheric Hg from landfill. Ligneous plants （e.g. Phyllostachys glanca, Prunus salicina and Ligustrum lucidum） are capable of enriching more Hg than herbaceous plants.     

EDTA-enhanced phytoremediation of lead contaminated soil by Bidens maximowicziana

Phytoremediation is a potential cleanup technology for the removal of heavy metals from contaminated soils.Bidens maximowicziana is a new Pb hyperaccumulator,which not only has remarkable tolerance to Pb but also extraordinary accumulation capacity for Pb.The maximum Pb concentration was 1509.3 mg/kg in roots and 2164.7 mg/kg in overground tissues.The Pb distribution order in the B. maximowicziana was:leaf>stem>root.The effect of amendments on phytoremediation was also studied.The mobility of soil Pb and the Pb concentrations in plants were both increased by EDTA application.Compared with CK(control check),EDTA application promoted translocation of Pb to overground parts of the plant.The Pb concentrations in overground parts of plants was increased from 24.23-680.56 mg/kg to 29.07-1905.57 mg/kg.This research demonstrated that B.maximowicziana appeared to be suitable for phytoremediation of Pb contaminated soil,especially,combination with EDTA.     

Decomposition of alachlor by ozonation and its mechanism

Decomposition and corresponding mechanism of alachlor, an endocrine disruptor in water by ozonation were investigated. Results showed that alachlor could not be completely mineralized by ozone alone. Many intermediates and final products were formed during the process, including aromatic compounds, aliphatic carboxylic acids, and inorganic ions. In evoluting these products, some of them with weak polarity were qualitatively identified by GC-MS. The information of inorganic ions suggested that the dechlorination was the first and the fastest step in the ozonation of alachlor.     

Enzymatic oxidation of aqueous pentachlorophenol

The influence of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80 on pentachlorophenol （PCP） oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase was studied. The surfactant was tested at concentrations below and above its critical micelle concentration （CMC）. Enhancement of PCP removal was observed at sub-CMCs. The presence of Tween 80 in the reaction mixture reduced enzyme inactivation which occurred through a combination of free radical attack and sorption by precipitated products. A simple first-order model was able to simulate time profiles for enzyme inactivation in the presence or absence of Tween 80. At supra-CMCs, the surfactant caused noticeable reductions in PCP removal, presumably through micelle partitioning of PCP which precluded the hydrophobic PCP molecule from interacting with the enzyme.
