饱和多孔介质中高岭石胶体和SiO2胶体运移行为比较

胶体在多孔介质中的运移行为不仅取决于胶体本身的性质,同时还受到溶液离子强度、孔隙水流速等物理、化学因素的影响。本文通过室内饱和石英砂柱出流实验,探讨了高岭石胶体(Kaolinite胶体)和SiO2胶体在不同离子强度(0.001 5,0.01和0.03 mol L-1)和平均孔隙流速(约20和5 cm h-1)作用下的迁移行为。结果表明,随溶液离子强度增加,Kaolinite胶体和SiO2胶体的沉淀量增加;平均孔隙水流速的增加则会促进Kaolinite胶体和SiO2胶体的运移。同时还表明,离子强度和流速变化对粒径较大的Kaolinite胶体运移的影响要显著大于SiO2胶体。研究结果有助于加深胶体对污染物运移的促进机制的理解,同时对全面、客观评价地下环境的污染风险具有一定的指导意义。     

非均质性对保守溶质及蒙脱石胶体在饱和多孔介质中运移的影响

选取2种粒径玻璃珠构建6种不同构型的柱子(2个均质和4个非均质),研究了饱和条件下多孔介质构型对保守溶质和蒙脱石胶体运移的影响。结果表明:在2种均质介质中,保守溶质的穿透曲线相似且对称,蒙脱石胶体在大粒径玻璃珠中的移动性更强。当介质中存在大孔隙通道时,优先流现象的出现会加速保守溶质和蒙脱石胶体的迁移,大孔隙通道与周围介质交界面越大保守溶质和蒙脱石胶体的拖尾现象越明显且穿透峰较低。在大、小粒径玻璃珠均匀混合填装的柱子中,保守溶质穿透曲线形状与均质柱子相似,蒙脱石胶体的移动性介于大、小粒径玻璃珠均匀填装的柱子之间。蒙脱石胶体在玻璃珠分层填装的柱子中,大粒径与小粒径交界面区域会有更多的蒙脱石胶体滞留。研究表明非均质性对保守溶质和蒙脱石胶体在土壤和地下环境中的运移过程有重要的影响。     

孔隙水流速对胶体在饱和多孔介质中运移的影响

采用室内石英砂柱出流实验和数学模型,研究了流速对自然土壤胶体、蒙脱石胶体和腐殖酸钠胶体在饱和多孔介质中运移的影响。结果表明:孔隙水流速影响着胶体在多孔介质中的运移过程,流速的提高可加速土壤胶体的出流过程,减小蒙脱石胶体和腐殖酸钠胶体的沉积率。胶体的运移过程除受孔隙水流速的影响外,胶体特性的不同亦决定着胶体运移过程的差异,由于胶体表面性质不同,与介质之间的作用力不同,决定了胶体运移过程中的沉积和释放。     

病原菌在红壤胶体上的吸附机制研究

研究了pH和KCl离子强度对猪链球菌和大肠杆菌在红壤胶体表面吸附的影响,结合表面物化性质和Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek(DLVO)理论分析互作机制。结果表明,细菌在红壤胶体表面的吸附等温线能较好拟合Freundlich方程(R20.97),猪链球菌在红壤胶体表面吸附的分配系数(Kf)是大肠杆菌的4.5倍～6.1倍,细菌在去有机质胶体表面吸附的Kf值为含有机质胶体的2.4倍～3.2倍。比表面积越大或zeta电位绝对值越小,细菌吸附能力越强,吸附态细菌位于距红壤胶体表面90～100 nm处的次级小能位置。随着体系pH降低(9.0～4.0)或离子强度增大(1～10 mmol L-1),细菌与红壤胶体互作能障降低,细菌吸附量增大,吸附机制符合DLVO理论;而在高离子强度下(50～100 mmol L-1),猪链球菌吸附量降低了3.4%～5.6%,表明除DLVO作用力外,非DLVO作用力如空间位阻排斥和疏水作用对吸附也有贡献。     

腐殖酸-高岭石胶体对铀(Ⅵ)在饱和多孔介质中迁移过程的影响

为探讨可溶性有机质存在条件下黏土矿物胶体对铀(Ⅵ)在饱和多孔介质中迁移的影响,选取2种石英砂(细砂和粗砂)分别构建均质构型的石英砂柱,研究了饱和水流条件下腐殖酸存在时高岭石胶体对铀在2种不同粒径石英砂中迁移的影响。结果表明,示踪溶质在2种均质石英砂柱中的穿透曲线相似且分布对称。当在石英砂柱中只通入铀(Ⅵ)溶液时,铀(Ⅵ)在2种粒径石英砂柱中的穿透量均较小(25%),此时大量的铀(Ⅵ)通过络合作用吸附在石英砂表面上。当通入溶液中存在腐殖酸和高岭石胶体时,铀(Ⅵ)在2种石英砂柱中的穿透量增加,且在600～850μm石英砂中(58.36%)比250～425μm石英砂中(42.68%)穿透量更多。这充分表明腐殖酸—高岭石胶体和石英砂粒径是影响铀(Ⅵ)在地下环境中迁移的重要因素。     

胶体颗粒对不同粒径饱和多孔介质渗透性的影响

探讨胶体颗粒在多孔介质中迁移所发生的物理、化学及生物作用过程,在许多学科中具有重要的科学意义。采用室内石英砂柱实验,开展了定水头条件下不同浓度和粒径的胶体颗粒在饱和多孔介质中的运移行为研究。共使用了3种胶体粒径、3种浓度的胶体溶液和3种粒径范围的石英砂。实验表明:多孔介质的相对渗透系数K/K0(K为各时刻计算所得的渗透系数,K0为初始渗透系数)减小程度与颗粒浓度成正比;胶体颗粒越大,越易在表层沉积,而小颗粒易向下部迁移,但总体来看粒径效应没有浓度效应明显;当胶体颗粒在不同粒径的饱和多孔介质中迁移时,粒径大的多孔介质各段K/K0均有明显降低,而粒径小的只在表层变化明显。不同条件下总体相对渗透系数与时间之间呈二次方相关关系,但当多孔介质粒径较小时,相关性不显著。介质渗流流速及砂柱不同位置胶体颗粒浓度变化与介质渗透性变化相对应。用扫描电镜(Scanning Electron Microscope,SEM)进行定性表征,进一步说明胶体颗粒会堵塞多孔介质孔隙影响其渗透性。实验中发现当输入浓度C0小于0.5 g·L–1且dp/Dp>0.018(dp为胶体颗粒粒径,Dp为石英砂算数平均粒径)时,会出现多孔介质局部K/K0增大的现象。     

水铁矿对磷的吸附及胶体态磷迁移能力预测

土壤中流失的磷进入水体容易引起富营养化污染。目前对于铁矿物胶体结合态磷在土壤孔隙介质中的稳定性和迁移能力的认识还存在不足。本研究采用吸附试验,考察水铁矿对磷的吸附特征以及pH、离子强度和胡敏酸对磷在液相、水铁矿胶体和水铁矿固体上分布的影响;通过DLVO理论,预测水铁矿胶体结合态磷的稳定性和迁移能力。结果表明,假二级动力学模型(R~2=0.964)更适合用于描述磷在水铁矿上的吸附过程,磷在水铁矿上的吸附受液膜扩散、内部扩散和化学吸附等过程控制。Freundlich模型(R2=0.970)对等温吸附的拟合效果好,说明水铁矿对磷的吸附为多层吸附过程。从Langmuir模型参数可知,水铁矿对磷的最大理论吸附量为22.55mg·g~(-1)。水铁矿对磷的吸附能力随pH的升高而降低,随离子强度的升高而升高。然而,低离子强度和高pH有利于反应体系中水铁矿胶体的释放。无论胡敏酸是否存在,在碱性且离子强度不高(1～10mmol·L~(-1))的条件下,有约5%～20%的磷会与水铁矿胶体结合,且这些磷-水铁矿胶体之间的静电斥力较大。根据DLVO理论计算可知,这些带负电荷的胶体之间稳定性较好,在土壤中有一定迁移能力。在实际农业活动中,磷肥的过量施用可能会使大量的磷酸根离子吸附在铁矿物上,促进土壤孔隙水中形成稳定的、带负电的铁矿物胶体,这种磷-铁矿物复合胶体的迁移很可能成为磷迁移的另一种形式。本研究结果可为胶体促进下磷淋失风险评估提供理论和数据支撑。     

腐殖酸-高岭石胶体对铀(VI)在饱和多孔介质中迁移过程的影响

为探讨可溶性有机质存在条件下黏土矿物胶体对铀（VI）在饱和多孔介质中迁移的影响,选取2种石英砂（细砂和粗砂）分别构建均质构型的石英砂柱,研究了饱和水流条件下腐殖酸存在时高岭石胶体对铀在2种不同粒径石英砂中迁移的影响。结果表明,示踪溶质在2种均质石英砂柱中的穿透曲线相似且分布对称。当在石英砂柱中只通入铀（VI）溶液时,铀（VI）在2种粒径石英砂柱中的穿透量均较小（<25%）,此时大量的铀（VI）通过络合作用吸附在石英砂表面上。当通入溶液中存在腐殖酸和高岭石胶体时,铀（VI）在2种石英砂柱中的穿透量增加,且在600~850 μm石英砂中（58.36%）比250~425 μm石英砂中（42.68%）穿透量更多。这充分表明腐殖酸—高岭石胶体和石英砂粒径是影响铀（VI）在地下环境中迁移的重要因素。     

地下环境中胶体促使下的污染物运移研究进展

大量的研究证据表明,胶体能促使地下环境中污染物的运移。胶体的沉积、释放和运移等动力学过程受许多因素的控制,如胶体的表面性质(亲水或疏水)、胶体的稳定性、水溶液的化学组分、离子强度、pH值和水的流速等。许多研究者已提出了考虑不同影响因素的模型从理论上或用实验室土柱试验来模拟胶体的运移行为。在未来应加强野外条件下不同类型的天然介质中胶体促使下污染物运移的影响因素、作用机制和运移过程的研究,这有助于人们提出有效的策略或发展新的治理技术以防止污染的扩大或修复污染,最终达到保护地下环境的目的。     

几种物理因素对四氧化三铁纳米颗粒在有机质存在条件下的饱和多孔介质中迁移持留行为的影响

近些年来,环境研究者对纳米颗粒的迁移性进行了部分研究,但是对环境稳定性低、反应活性高的金属氧化物工程纳米颗粒在多孔介质中的运移沉积行为的系统探讨还很不足,尤其是对其在有机质（NOM）存在条件下迁移行为的了解非常有限。本研究选用四氧化三铁磁纳米颗粒（MENPs）作为研究对象,采用填充柱淋溶实验法,对其在饱和多孔介质中的迁移持留行为展开探讨,其目的是考察几种主要介质环境物理因素对其在天然有机质存在条件下的纵向淋溶过程及其在介质中持留量的影响作用。结果显示,不利吸附条件下的MENPs集聚体在多孔介质中的吸附持留及迁移性能取决于多种合力的作用效果。其中,孔隙水流速增大时,MENPs在多孔介质中的迁移性增强,持留性减弱,持留MENPs在介质中的逐层分布随孔隙水流速改变而变化;而且,MENPs在多孔介质中的迁移持留性与介质颗粒的表面物理性质也有关,天然有机质的存在一定程度上可以改善石英砂表面的异质性。另外,介质颗粒粒径大小也是影响MENP-介质间持留机制的重要因子。当多孔介质颗粒粒径大小改变时,MENPs穿透曲线及持留分布曲线随之变化明显,MENPs的吸附沉积机制也相应有所不同。     

Character and change in the hydrophilic properties of quartz sand

Although quartz sand with its amorphous surface layer covered with OH groups is completely hydrophilic per se, the contact angle of water with it is > 0°. Natural sand (marine or soil) apparently contains organic hydrophobic substances adsorbed from air and water; this decreases its hydrophilicity, which is not restorable by acid washing and calcination. The H₂O₂ treatment of acid-washed sand restores its natural hydrophilicity.     

Transformation of the structural organization of clay sediments and soils under the impact of polyelectrolytes

The effects of polyacrylic acid (PAAc) and polyacrylamide (PAA) adsorption by quartz sand, montmorillonite, kaolinite, gray forest soil, and chernozem on the texture of the sorbents were studied. It was shown that the polymolecular adsorption was typical of the applied polyelectrolytes. The addition of PAA in a concentration of 0.05% to the solution resulted in consolidation of the sediments with a decrease in their volume. In the case of montmorillonite, a loose gel precipitate formed; its volume decreased by about 6% during the experiment. The adsorption of polyelectrolytes slightly affected the average radii, total surface area, and volume of the pore space (within 4–20%). The transformation of the surface of minerals and soils under the action of polyelectrolytes resulted in a significant change in the differential pore volume. The number of pores of about 0.0014 μm in size hardly changed at all. However, wider pores (0.011–0.45 μm) appeared. The adsorption of PAAc resulted in the appearance of wide pores (1.6–22.0 μm), and the adsorption of PAA resulted in the appearance of two narrow classes of micropores. A much more even distribution of differential porosity in the range of 3.6–4.5 μm was revealed. Thus, the transformation of the surface of adsorbents by polyelectrolytes led to changes in the pore-size distribution.     

Measurement of the size distribution of water-filled pores at different matric potentials by stray field nuclear magnetic resonance

The water retention characteristic provides the traditional data set for the derivation of a soil's pore‐size distribution. However, the technique employed to achieve this requires that assumptions be made about the way pores interconnect. We explore an alternative approach based on stray field nuclear magnetic resonance (STRAFI‐NMR) to probe the water‐filled pores of both saturated and unsaturated soils, which does not require information relating to pore connectivity. We report the relative size distributions of water‐occupied pores in saturated and unsaturated samples of two sets of glass beads of known particle size, two sands, and three soils (a silty loam, a sandy loam and a loamy sand), using measurements of the NMR T₁ proton relaxation time of water. The T₁ values are linearly related to pore size and consequently measured T₁ distributions provide a measure of the pore‐size distribution. For both the sands and the glass beads at saturation the T₁ distributions are unimodal, and the samples with small particle sizes show a shift to small T₁ values indicating smaller voids relative to the samples with larger particles. Different matric potentials were used to reveal how the water‐occupied pore‐size distribution changes during drainage. These changes are inconsistent with, and demonstrate the inadequacies of, the commonly employed parallel‐capillary tube model of a soil pore space. We find that not all pores of the same size drain at the same matric potential. Further, we observe that the T₁ distribution is shifted to smaller values beyond the distribution at saturation. This shift is explained by a change in the weighted average of the relaxation rates as the proportion of water in the centre of water‐filled pores decreases. This is evidence for the presence of pendular structures resulting from incomplete drainage of pores. For the soils the results are similar except that at saturation the T₁ distributions are bimodal or asymmetrical, indicative of inter‐aggregate and intra‐aggregate pore spaces. We conclude that the NMR method provides a characterization of the water‐filled pore space which complements that derived from the water retention characteristic and which can provide insight into the way pore connectivity impacts on drainage.     

沙障风荷载作用下嵌固端受力分析

该文应用大涡模拟方法研究不同孔隙度透过性沙障嵌固端受力变化及其周围流场结构特征。结果表明,非透过沙障在相同速度的促发气流下嵌固端受力远高于孔隙沙障,其嵌固端弯矩和剪力最大值分别为40%孔隙率沙障的2倍和1.5倍,为80%孔隙率沙障的16.5倍和14.45倍,沙障嵌固端最大弯矩和剪力值随孔隙率增大而逐渐减小。在持续风力作用下,沙障嵌固端所受弯矩和剪力大大降低,沙障孔隙率为0时,其最大弯矩和剪力值约为其平均值的9.4倍和6.9倍,而沙障孔隙率为80%时,最大弯矩和剪力值分别约为其平均值的2.3倍与2.5倍。沙障孔隙度在一定范围内变化时,其周围流场结构有一定的相似性,以50%孔隙率为分界点可以分为2组,每组沙障嵌固端受力各有其相似的变化特征。研究可为沙障设计插入深度提供理论支撑。

基于CT扫描的不同粒形滤料孔隙结构特征

滤层孔隙结构直接影响过滤过程中的颗粒沉积和运移效果。为了掌握砂石过滤器不同粒形滤料组成滤层的内部孔隙结构特征,该研究以粒径为1～1.18 mm的普通石英砂（QS1）、天然海砂（SS2）、改性玻璃（MG3）和玻璃微珠（GB4）4 种滤料为研究对象,采用CT 扫描技术对滤层孔隙模型进行了三维重构,利用VGStudio MAX、Image J等计算机图像处理软件,分析了 4 种滤层的孔隙率、孔径大小及孔隙形状参数,并结合分形理论确定了 4 种滤层孔隙结构的计盒分形维数。结果表明：4种滤层的表观孔隙率范围分别为39.7%～44.6%、38.5～42.3%、40.7%～45.6%、34.8%～38.7%,对应体积孔隙率分别为0.422、0.412、0.441、0.366;对应孔径范围分别为75～960、80～760、70～1 050、85～930 μm,圆度值区间分别为1.59～1.78、1.35～1.54、1.65～2.03、1.20～1.36,扁平度值区间分别为2.62～2.75、2.05～2.20、3.04～3.21、1.94～2.04,计盒维数均值分别为1.621、1.566、1.661、1.446。该研究定量表征了滤层孔隙结构特性,得出不同粒形滤料细观孔隙结构的差异：滤层表观孔隙率呈现“上高下低”分布规律,孔径分布规律表明滤层内均是小孔隙占多数,大孔隙占少数,且孔隙以狭长型为主。随着滤料棱角度增加,表观孔隙率分布越分散,体积孔隙率越大,大孔隙占比也相应增加,最大达到17.24%（MG3）,孔隙形状更加偏离球形,表征孔隙结构复杂性的计盒维数相应增加,且分形维数与孔隙率呈负相关关系。滤层孔隙结构研究可为后续研究滤层内颗粒沉积和运移规律奠定基础。     

Infiltration and Distribution of Elemental Mercury DNAPL in Water-Saturated Porous Media: Experimental and Numerical Investigation

Liquid elemental mercury occurrence in the subsurface as dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) is reported worldwide in proximity of several industrial facilities, such as chlor-alkali plants. Insight into Hg⁰ DNAPL infiltration behavior is lacking and, to date, there are no experimental observations of its infiltration and distribution in water-saturated porous media, except for capillary pressure-saturation column experiments. To better understand the processes governing elemental mercury DNAPL flow behavior, a series of flow container experiments were performed using mercury DNAPL (in sands and glass beads) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE) (in sands). While liquid Hg⁰ was not able to infiltrate in the sand-filled container due to an overall lower permeability of the sample and a defect of the setup, in the glass beads experiment mercury DNAPL infiltration occurred. Dual gamma ray measurements showed that, in glass beads, liquid Hg⁰ preferentially migrated towards higher porosity zones. As for PCE, infiltration and distribution of Hg⁰ DNAPL are strongly affected by the heterogeneities within the porous formation. However, compared to other DNAPLs, liquid Hg⁰ shows a strong attenuation potential of gamma rays. Finally, numerical simulations of the glass beads experiment showed an overall good agreement with the experimental results, highlighting that, among the factors influencing the prediction of liquid Hg⁰ migration in water-saturated porous media, the most critical are (i) the knowledge of the inflow rate, (ii) the reliable estimation of the porous formation permeability, and (iii) the accurate representation of the correlation between retention properties and intrinsic permeability.

Aroma retention in sol-gel-made silica particles

The retention performance of aroma molecules from different chemical classes (e.g., alcohols, esters, aldehydes, and terpenes) by silica particles made by hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate is investigated. Since particle morphology, porosity, and pore size distribution can be controlled by the sol-gel preparation method, the influence of the nanoconfinement in the microporous matrix on aroma retention is studied as well as the effect of the initial aroma load of the particles. As the porosity is decreased, aroma molecules are entrapped more efficiently in the silica particles. The retention performance decreased from alcohols > aldehydes >/= esters > terpenes as with polar organic matrices. Open sol-gel-made silica particles show an increased retention with increasing aroma load, while denser silica matrices show a maximum retention with increasing load.     

Mercury porosimetry of compacted clay minerals

The clay minerals, kaolin and montmorillonite, were compacted at different pressures up to 300 MPa. The textural characteristics (pore radius, surface area and porosity) of the clay minerals were measured after compaction and related to the particle size and the cation exchange capacity of these clays. Kaolins and montmorillonites with and without compaction were characterized by mercury intrusion using a porosimeter within the range 0.1 MPa to 200 MPa. A negative linear correlation was obtained between the mean pore radius of compacted clays and the cation exchange capacity. A larger percentage of fine particles originated compacts with small pore sizes. The pore radius and the porosity of the clay minerals diminished with increasing compaction pressure, whereas the surface area increased.
