Fate and transport of oil in sediment laden marine waters

Spilled oil when present in sediment-enriched waters, is known to interact with sediments. Oil droplets form aggregates with sediments due to collision and dissolved oil partitions (absorption and adsorption) into sediments due to capillarity and surfactant ions. This may change the fate and transport of both oil and sediments. Interaction with sediments acts as a natural oil removal process. This has been recognized as a crucial component in developing oil spill countermeasures. However, no comprehensive models are currently available to describe the process. This paper presents a novel numerical model developed to simulate oil-sediment interaction and transport in near-shore waters. The present model simulates, oil and sediment transport, oil-sediment aggregate (OSA) formation, oil partitioning into sediments, and sediment aggregation. The critical information provided by the model such as the fraction of oil removed due to sediment interaction would be useful in developing oil spill countermeasures.The model results are compared with the limited data from laboratory experiments and show a good agreement. Scenario simulations showed that up to 65% of released oil may be removed from the water column as OSAs. They further showed that when oil droplets and sediment particles are smaller (less than 0.1 mm), the amount of OSAs formed is higher. According to the scenario simulations, the amount of oil partitioned into sediments is 4–5 orders of magnitude smaller than the amount of OSAs formed.     

井筒环雾流传热模型及其在深水气井水合物生成风险分析中的应用

该文采用Hewitt流型判别法,表明深水含水气井测试时井筒内多为环雾流,考虑了气核与液膜间速度及热力学性质差异,建立了环雾流传热模型,与南海某深水气井实测数据对比,模型预测误差在5%以内。计算表明,忽略含水影响的气体单相模型在含水量大于0.1%时,泥线以上井筒压力和温度预测误差均超过10%,应用该研究建立的环雾流模型则可以得到更准确的结果。含水会使泥线以上一定范围内井段井筒温度显著降低,压力损失增大。产气量较低时,含水量对水合物生成风险基本无影响;产气量较高时,含水量会使得水合物生成区域下界下移,水合物生成区域增大,并使过冷度增大,更容易诱导水合物生成,水合物生成风险增大,需要增加水合物抑制剂用量,并加深注入位置。产水会使无水合物生成所对应的临界产气量增大,需要调整水合物抑制剂用量和注入位置。

Fall diet and bathymetric distribution of deepwater sculpin (Myoxocephalus thompsonii) in Lake Huron

Deepwater sculpin Myoxocephalus thompsonii are an important component of Great Lake's offshore benthic food webs. Recent declines in deepwater sculpin abundance and changes in bathymetric distribution may be associated with changes in the deepwater food web of Lake Huron, particularly, decreased abundance of benthic invertebrates such as Diporeia. To assess how deepwater sculpins have responded to recent changes, we examined a fifteen-year time series of spatial and temporal patterns in abundance as well as the diets of fish collected in bottom trawls during fall of 2003, 2004, and 2005. During 1992–2007, deepwater sculpin abundance declined on a lake-wide scale but the decline in abundance at shallower depths and in the southern portion of Lake Huron was more pronounced. Of the 534 fish examined for diet analysis, 97% had food in the stomach. Mysis, Diporeia, and Chironomidae were consumed frequently, while sphaerid clams, ostracods, fish eggs, and small fish were found in only low numbers. We found an inverse relationship between prevalence of Mysis and Diporeia in diets that reflected geographic and temporal trends in abundance of these invertebrates in Lake Huron. Because deepwater sculpins are an important trophic link in offshore benthic food webs, declines in population abundance and changes in distribution may cascade throughout the food web and impede fish community restoration goals.

Numerical modeling of fine particle plume transport in a large lake

A new concept of Zebra mussel control for power plants is to release Nalco molluscicide H-130 M during intake of cooling water to deactivate the mussels, followed by releasing fine clay to absorb the remaining molluscicide prior to discharge. To predict the fate and impact of a low concentration fine particle plume upon its release to receiving waters, a three dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic and a mud transport model were employed under various wind conditions and different particle settling speeds. The hydrodynamic model was verified against flow velocity vertical profiles measured by two ADCPs (Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers) deployed in the study region during the late fall. Good agreement between the measured and simulated alongshore current vertical profile at the near shore location (1 km) was achieved, however the model had difficulty in replicating the measured offshore current in the near shore region and the velocity vertical profile 5 km offshore. A simplified computational solution using an extended domain of receiving waters with a closed boundary was proposed in this study. Five particle plume transport scenarios were examined with the 3D mud transport model. Generally, in spite of very strong offshore discharge flow, the particle plumes do not extend more than 2 km away from the shoreline in all tested scenarios. The numerical modeling method used in this study can be applied to solve similar coastal zone transport problems if the flow is unstratified and mainly travels along and close to shore.
