- Abstract
This study explored the degradation effect and mechanism of persulfate oxidation activated by different macromolecular substances (polysaccharides, humic acid, and citric acid), combined with ferrous ions and different kinds of carbohydrate (monosaccharide, disaccharide, and polysaccharide). The results showed that the oxidation effects of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by different activation treatments were in the order:humic acid combined with ferrous ionpolysaccharidecitric acid chelated with ironpolysaccharide combined with ferrous iondisaccharidesmonosaccharideCK. Among them, humic acid combined with ferrous ion-activated persulfate achieved the highest removal rates (up to 79.21% and 79.89%, respectively), and also showed the weakest pollutant content rebound phenomenon. For oxidation of high-ring PAHs, humic acid combined with ferrous ion treatment and polysaccharide activation showed great advantages, with degradation rates being 77.96% and 84.37%, much higher than other treatments. Humic acid combined with ferrous ion-activated persulfate result in the highest Eh of soil (up to 618-676 mV), and polysaccharide treatment was secondary, indicating that macromolecular materials exhibited great oxidation ability and can degrade soil organic pollutants efficiently.

Solving Flexible Job Shop Problem (FJSSP) under machine breakdown with robustness and stability is an important field of manufacturing. Due to the shortage of the existing measure of stability based on the end time of each operation, a new stable measure based on machine allocation for each operation is proposed. Considering this is a multi-object problem and their optimization can be seen as game procedure, a game model is build and the Nash Equilibrium (NE) solutions of the problem are tried to find. To obtain the better NE solution, an improving clone immune algorithm is also proposed. In this algorithm, Pareto-optimization mechanism is introduced to shrink the searching scope of NE solutions and the better solutions are obtained. Experiments show the effectiveness of the new approach.

Flexible job shop scheduling problem subject to machine breakdown is one of the challenging problems in manufacturing field. In this problem, robustness and stability are the two important measures to evaluate the quality of rescheduling. Considering these two objectives cannot be optimised simultaneously and the equilibrium of two objectives has game procedure, non-cooperative game theory with complete information is applied to build new scheduling model. In this game model, the two objectives can be seen as the two sides which take part in the game. Firstly, pre-scheduling without considering machine failure is generated, and then the operations affected by machine failure are obtained according to time at which machine breakdown happens. The decision made by each side should obtain better robust and stable performance. To achieve the optimal objects, Nash Equilibrium (NE) solution for each side is achieved. Considering NE solution may not exist or there are more than one NE solutions, concepts of ideal...

Pteris vittata L. can absorb and accumulate high arsenic levels in soil. To clarify the occurrence characteristics of pyrene (PYR) and arsenate (As) as well as their interaction in P. vittata L., the hosting and distribution rules of PYR were determined via two-photon laser scanning confocal microscopy (TPLSCM). The results showed that PYR addition resulted in obviously lower concentrations of total As in various parts of P. vittata, with a largest decrease of about 35% in the leaves and stem, and 20. 5% in the roots. PYR addition could also decrease the proportion of trivalent arsenic and increased that of pentavalent arsenate in different parts of P. vittata. The concentrations of trivalent and pentavalent arsenic in the leaves of P. vittata showed the largest decrement, which were 42.2% and 32.49%, respectively. Arsenate addition increased the accumulation of PYR in the root and stem of P. vittata by 9.8 µg and 139 ng per plant, respectively, while no obvious influence was found on the PYR in the leaves. Pyrene mainly attached to the cell membrane and other membrane structure such as nuclear membrane and organelle membrane, and there was less pyrene in the cytoplasm. There was little PYR in the phloem and cortex in the stem as well as palisade tissue and spongy tissue in leaves.

A pot experiment was carried out to study the effects of soil moisture on the growth and arsenic uptake of As-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata L. The results showed that the remediation efficiency of As was the highest when the soil moisture was between 35%-45%. P. vittata grew best under 45% water content, and its aboveground and underground plant dry weights were 2.95 g x plant(-1) and 11.95 g x plant(-1), respectively; the arsenic concentration in aboveground and roots was the highest under 35% water content, and 40% content was the best for accumulation of arsenic in P. vittata. Moreover, controlling the soil moisture to 35%-45% enhanced the conversion of As(V) to As(III) in aboveground plant, and promoted arsenic detoxification in P. vittata. These above results showed that soil moisture played an important role in the absorption and transport of arsenic by P. vittata. The results of this study can provide important guidance for the large-scale planting of P. vittata and the moisture management measures in engineering application.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of thermal enhanced soil vapor extraction (SVE) on benzene removal from sand, loam and clay and the mechanism. Compared to the routine control treatment, the benzene removal rates were improved by 13. 1% and 12. 3% and the remediation periods were reduced by 75% and 14%, from sand and loam respectively using thermal enhanced SVE. Thermal enhancement decreased the moisture content and increased the soil permeability of clay. On the surface of clay particles, absorption peaks of carboxyl and ethyl disappeared and the content of soil organic substances decreased significantly. Compared to the conventional SVE, the benzene removal rate was improved by 34% in clay soil treated by thermal enhanced SVE. For sand and loam, thermal enhancement could increase the removal rate by promoting the diffusion of benzene in the soil and achieve substantial removal of pollutants in a relatively short period of time. For clay, it could enhance the effect of SVE by reducing the absorption capacity between soil particle surface and contaminant and improving the performance of the gas diffusion in soil by decreasing the moisture content and increasing the soil permeability.

Panax notoginseng is a valued traditional Chinese medical herb. In this study, the arsenic (As) contamination of soil in P. notoginseng plantation area in Wenshan (Yunnan, China) was investigated; the absorption and accumulation of soil As by the P. notoginseng was revealed; and the associated health risk was evaluated. The results revealed that the soil As concentrations ranged between 6.9-242.0 mg x kg(-1). Arsenic concentrations in 48% of the total soil samples were40 mg x kg(-1). The As concentrations in 24% of main root samples, 81% of fibrous root samples, 14% of stem samples, 57% of leaf samples, and 44% of flower/fruit samples were greater than the regulation concentration of 2.0 mg x kg(-1). Arsenic accumulation in the main root increased with the soil As concentration at soil As concentrations100 mg x kg(-1), but sharply decreased with the soil As concentration at soil As concentrations100 mg x kg(-1). With increasing soil As concentration, the total biomass of P. notoginseng and the main root biomass decreased. Calculating with the As concentration in different parts of Sanqi P. notoginseng plants, percent of the average ingestion rates of As with ADI regulated by FAO/WHO showed fibrous rootleaveflower/fruitmain rootstem. Based on the As concentration in the main root, the daily As intake accounted for a mean fraction of 12.83% (maximum 45.87%) of the acceptable daily intake specified by FAO/WHO,and the ratio increased with the increasing of soil As concentration. Arsenic contamination of soil and P. notoginseng at the plantation area of Wenshan should not be neglected, and effective strategies should be adopt to reduce As accumulation in the plant and human health risk.

In order to ascertain BTEX measurements of soils from industrial contaminated sites, static headspace, purge-and-trap and solid phase microextraction (SPME) combined gas chromatography were selected to determine BTEX in the soils. This method of SPME could not be used to analyze BTEX isomers in soils from highly contaminated sites because the high concentration of organic contaminants eroded the SPME probe head. The recoveries for added standard ranged from 95.2% - 98.2% for static headspace-GC and 99.2% - 101.3% for purge-and-trap-GC. When the soil samples contained low concentrations of BTEX (60 mg/kg), the concentration determined by purge-and-trap-GC was 12.6% - 37.6% higher than the value from static headspace-GC. For soil samples containing high concentrations of BTEX, the static headspace-GC result was higher than that from purge-and-trap-GC. The correlation trend lines of individual BTEX isomers to total BTEX were similar for both static headspace-GC and purge-and-trap-GC results.

An enclosed reactor was used to evaluate Fenton reagent, modified Fenton reagent, potassium permanganate and activated persulfate for removal of benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylene (BTEX) from soil at contaminated industrial coking sites. The results showed that Fenton reagent and modified Fenton reagent were the optimum oxidants for removing BTEX, and these oxidants decreased the concentration of BTEX in soils by 83% and 73%, respectively. The proportion of BTEX volatilized from the soil was4% in both cases, and the rates of BTEX removal from the whole system were 80% and 71%. More than 65% of xylene was removed after treatment with Fenton reagent and modified Fenton reagent. In contrast, benzene, toluene were more resistant to oxidation, and ethyl benzene was the most resistant of these compounds. The concentration of BTEX decreased to some extent when permanganate and activated persulfate were used as oxidants. However, the proportions of volatilized BTEX were 83% and 77% for permanganate and activated persulfate, respectively. This indicates that they could stimulate the desorption and volatilization of BTEX, while they were ineffective for removing BTEX from the environment.

Different oxidants were evaluated for removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from contaminated soils at industrial coking sites with the use of simulating device, and the fate of pollutants during the treatment was investigated. Permanganate showed the highest PAHs removal rate (96.2%) of the oxidants studied. Most of the PAHs were oxidized and only1% of PAHs volatilized and transferred to the solvent. The removal of PAHs by activated persulfate reached 92%. Modified Fenton reagent could remove 80% of PAHs, and2% of PAHs volatilized and transferred to the solvent after treatment with activated persulfate and modified Fenton reagent. The efficiencies of hydrogen dioxide and Fenton reagent for removal of PAHs were both60% ,and up to 6% of PAHs volatilized and transferred to the solvent. In summary, permanganate and activated persulfate are the most effective and environment-friendly oxidants for removing PAHs from contaminated soils. The chemical oxidants could easily remove ANY, ANT, BaP, DahA, BghiP and IcdP, but FLE, CHR and Fla were relatively resistant to chemical oxidation.

Fertilization has become one of the essential measures for enhancing efficiency of phytoremediating contaminated soils with heavy metal. In order to screen optimal P fertilizer for As-phytoremediation, a greenhouse study was conducted on the growth, As-accumulation and uptake of N, P and K by Pteris vittata L. in As-contaminated soils with different forms of P fertilizers. The results indicated that the biomass of plant with As addition decreased compared to no As-addition treatments except fused calcium magnesium phosphate (CaMg-P) treatment. The plants in As addition soils with CaMg-P, calcium dihydrogen phosphate (CDP) and di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) had higher biomass than those with other P fertilizer and control (0.83 g/pot). The As accumulations of plant aboveground in As addition soils are in order of CDPCaMg-PDAPPotassium Phosphate MonobasicMonosodium phosphatecontrolCalcium superphosphate. The efficiency of As removal from As addition soils with CDP was the highest, 7.28%. Thus it can be seen the ability of phytoremediation using P. vittata could be improved by P fertilization, which CDP should be recommended preferentially and CaMg-P and DAP is considered as replaceable fertilizer for sake of pH, N, P and available As in phytoremediated soils.

As soil arsenic concentration might have great effect on arsenic accumulation of hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata L. , three sample areas with different As pollution level in the soils are investigated in Chenzhou, Hunan Province, where Pteris vittata L. grows broadly. Great variation of As concentrations is found to be not only among different samples in the same sampling areas but also between rhizosphere and bulk soil of P. vittata L. So it is suggested that rhizosphere soil should be sampled to study the effect of soil contamination on plant accumulation. The As concentration in frond of P. vittata L. increased dramatically at lower As level but decreased slowly when As concentration higher than 1 000 mg/kg. Arsenic translocation factors of P. vittata L. were greater than 1 in all samples in this study, whereas As concentration in shoots in lower As contaminated soil and bioaccumulation factors in higher As contaminated soil are fail to meet the definition of As hyperaccumulator.

This paper presented the characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in Beijing surface water during the survey. A significant difference was found out in concentration distribution of various parameters of nitrogen and phosphorus. Most water bodies in five water systems were polluted by total nitrogen with the content even up to 120 mg/L which was higher than exceeded the fifth class standard of national surface water quality standard GB3838-2002 except for several segments of Chaobaihe and Yongdinghe. Ammonia and phosphorus showed a similar tendency of distribution with higher content in Daqinghe, Beiyunhe and Jiyunhe water systems, but with relatively low concentrations in Chaobaihe and Yongdinghe water systems. Meanwhile, nitrate was found at comparatively low content (mostly less than 10 mg/L) and could fit for corresponding water quality requirements. Totally, the water quality of Daqinghe, Jiyunhe and Beiyunhe river systems as well as the lower reaches of Yongdinghe and Chaobaihe was contaminated seriously with high content of total nitrogen and phosphorus. Through multivariate statistical approaches, it can be concluded that total nitrogen, ammonia and total phosphorus was highly correlated to chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand, dissolved oxygen and electrical conductivity, which explained the same pollution source from anthropogenic activities.

Laboratory experiments about the dissipation, adsorption and translocation in four paddy topsoils were conducted in this paper. From the results it can be concluded as follows: the dissipation rate of clomazone differed greatly in different paddy soil derived from different parent materials. The half-lives for clomazone degradation in paddy soils ranged from 5.7 to 22.0 d. The order of clomazone dissipation rate was reddish yellow paddy soilalluvial sandy paddy soilyellow clayey paddy soilpurple sandy paddy soil. Clomazone sorption quantity was significantly correlated with organic carbon (R2 = 0.62) and clay content(R2 = 0.67) in the tested paddy soils. Positive correlation was found between apparent Kd value and cation exchange content(CEC). The consequences for the adsorption of different soils were purple sandy paddy soilyellow clayey paddy soilreddish yellow paddy soilalluvial sandy paddy soil. Under the simulated rainfall of 200 mm through four different unsaturated soil lysimeters over 24 h, clomazone was readily to be leached into lower surface soil and there was about 2.6%--4.2% of applied clomazone leached out of 20 cm cultivated soil layer. Translocation experiments showed that the order of clomazone leaching ability was: alluvial sandy paddy soilreddish yellow paddy soilyellow clayey paddy soilpurple sandy paddy soil. Simple regression results manifested that factors like CEC, organic carbon, clay, and adsorption rate constant had been negatively correlated with the percentage of clomazone loss from soil lysimeters.
