大同市居民对室内空气质量认知程度的调查

为了解大同市居民对室内空气质量的认知情况，并分析认知程度与教育的关系，于2016年3月至5月，在大同市城区的9个社区随机对居民进行问卷调查。问卷内容包括居民对室内空气质量安全知识的了解，检测室内空气质量的意愿和治理意愿3个方面。将居民所处地域、居民的年龄与学历对室内空气质量安全认知程度的影响分别进行统计学分析。结果表明，大同市居民室内空气质量安全认知程度总体得分15.8，得分率为52.7%；新城区的居民对室内空气质量安全认知水平高于老城区居民（p<0.05）；学历越高且越年轻的居民对室内空气质量安全的认知水平越高，寻求有关机构进行室内空气检测和治理的意愿更强烈，且对检测和治理的费用承受度较高。大同市居民对室内空气质量安全认知程度总体不高，还应加强对市民的室内空气质量安全方面的教育。     

Verification of the Usefulness of Radiotracing Methods in Hydrodynamic Investigations

In the paper comparison of accuracy of two methods used for investigations of hydrodynamic in continuous flow tanks has been made. Basis for the comparison is the experimental work performed for big industrial wastewater concentration equalization tank. The first method is based on the radiotracer experiment while the second one uses the analysis of response on sudden change of the technological parameters. The radiotracer method has better accuracy connected with the shorter sampling period.

Ks wird die Genauigkeit zweier Methoden zur Untersuchting der Hydrodynamik von kontinuierlich arbeitenden Flüssigkeitsbehältern verglichen. Grundlage dafür sind experimentelle Untersuchungen an groβen Industrieabwasser-Ausgleichsbehältern. Die erste Methode bedient sich der Radiotracertechnik, während die zweite Methode auf einer plötzlichen Veränderung der technologischcn Parameter beruht. Es zeigt sich, daβ die Radiotracermethoden die besseren Ergebnisse liefert, wobei auβerdem noch kürzere Probenaltmeperioden von Vorteil sind.     

An improved Sampling Strategy for the Measurement of VOCs in Air,Based on Cooled Sampling and Analysis by Thermodesorption-GC-MS/FID

Abstract

Reliable and comprehensive sampling methods are required to obtain accurate data for VOC concentrations in air samples. The major drawback of the adsorption tube sampling method, widely employed in environmental studies, is the fact that C₂ compounds are usually not trapped quantitatively.

The focus of this work was thus to improve sampling based on adsorption tubes packed with Molsieve and Carbosieve. To improve the sampling efficiency for the C₂ compounds, a cooling device, based on Peltier cooling was constructed, which could be operated at a temperature down to ?30°C.

Experiments under laboratory and field conditions were carried out to study the influence of the sampling temperatuie on the recovery of ethane and ethene as the most volatile VOCs. The results clearly demonstrate the need for a cooled sampling device for the analysis of C₂ compounds in air. Under the investigated conditions, the recoveries with ambient temperature sampling were only in the range of 38–46% for ethane and 33–59% for ethene respectively, in comparison to the cooled sampling device. These findings are only valid for the described conditions and can change significantly with temperature and concentration. A generalisation of the recovery is thus very difficult to give.

The use of the sampling device for a field study is reported, where samples were collected simultaneously at three different altitudes in a diurnal profile on the slope of the Schulterberg mountain in Tyrol (Austria).     

Determination of Volatile Halogenated Compounds in Tap and Surface Waters from the Gdańsk District

Abstract

The present method is based on preconcentration of organic contaminants on XAD-4 as sorbent, thermal desorption, mineralization and coulometric argentometric titration for the final determination of halides. The results were calculated as the total parameter VOX (volatile organic halogen) expressed as chlorine. The method has been used for the VOX determination in tap water, Vistula river water and Baltic Sea water. Sampling of the Baltic Sea water has been carried out during the research cruise of the r/v ‘Oceania’. The relatively high anthropogenic pollution of the river Vistula (c _vox = 11–45 μg Cl/cd³), Gulf of Gdańsk (c _vox = 0.6–4.5 μg Cl/dm³) and the Pomerania Bay (c _vox = 2 μg Cl/dm³) has been determined. The VOX concentration in the tap water varied between 13 and 56 μg/dm³; that is, this water is seriously polluted by volatile organic halogen compounds.     

A safe minimum standard,the elasticity of substitution,and the cleanup of the Ganges in Varanasi

Despite repeated calls for a thorough cleanup of water pollution in the Ganges river, there are only two papers in the social sciences by Batabyal and Beladi (2017, 2019) that have shed theoretical light on this cleanup problem and its connection to the sustainability of tourism in Varanasi. Hence, we extend the above‐mentioned analyses and focus on two specific questions. First, we introduce the notion of a safe minimum standard (SMS) into the study and show how to analyze a probabilistic model of the Ganges cleanup problem when the SMS is accounted for. Second, for a representative citizen of Varanasi, we study how the magnitude of the elasticity of substitution between a composite consumption good and water quality in the Ganges—modeled by the SMS—affects the tradeoff between consumption and water quality maintenance.     

PPh3/I2/HCOOH: An efficient CO source for the synthesis of phthalimides

A straightforward and general method has been developed for the synthesis of phthalimide derivatives from 2-iodobenzamides and PPh₃/I₂/HCOOH in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)₂. The reaction results demonstrate that PPh₃/I₂/HCOOH is a facile, efficient and safe CO source. The whole process is carried out in toluene at 80?°C and furnishes the desired products in good to excellent yields.

A Water-Stable Lanthanide Coordination Polymer as Multicenter Platform for Ratiometric Luminescent Sensing Antibiotics

As a hot topic of global concern, the distinguishing and detecting of antibiotic pollution is crucial owing to its adverse effect on ecosystems and human health stemming from excessive use and poor management. Herein, a water-stable lanthanide coordination polymer sensor (Dy-TCPB) with multiple emitting centers is prepared. The versatile Dy-TCPB can conveniently differentiate various antibiotics, and displays a self-calibration luminescent response to nitrofurazone (NFZ) and furazolidone (FZD). Each antibiotic exhibits notable correlation to a unique combination of the two ligand-to-Dy ion emission intensity ratios, enabling two-dimensional fingerprint recognition. Furthermore, the novel self-calibration sensor demonstrates effective recognition of NFZ and FZD with excellent sensitivity and selectivity, and detection limits as low as 0.0476 and 0.0482 μm for NFZ and FZD, respectively. The synthetic approach for the fabrication of a singular coordination polymer exhibiting multiple emissions provides a promising strategy for the development of facile and effective ratiometric sensors.     

An Ensemble Kalman Filter Approach Based on Level Set Parameterization for Acoustic Source Identification Using Multiple Frequency Information

In this paper, a reconstruction problem of the spatial dependent acoustic source from multiple frequency data is discussed. Suppose that the source function is supported on a bounded domain and the piecewise constant intensities of the source are known on the support. We characterize unknown domain by the level set technique. And the level set function can be modeled by a Hamilton-Jacobi system. We use the ensemble Kalman filter approach to analyze the system state. This method can avoid to deal with the nonlinearity directly and reduce the computation complexity. In addition, the algorithm can achieve the stable state quickly with the Hamilton-Jacobi system. From some numerical examples, we show these advantages and verify the feasibility and effectiveness.
