The distribution and concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (dioxin-like PCBs, also called co-PCBs) in a typical area of eastern China were evaluated by analysis of 21 soil and 6 sediment samples. The range of WHO-TEQ values for the PCDD/Fs and dioxin-like PCBs in 17 soil samples representing the background investigation in the study area was 0.017-5.04 pg g(-1) (dry weight, dw), with a mean value 0.967(+/-1.361)pg g(-1) and medium value 0.348 pg g(-1), which indicates that the levels of PCDD/Fs and dioxin-like PCBs over the major part of this district were low. However, the WHO-TEQ values (6.52-16.7 pg g(-1) dw) for PCDD/Fs and dioxin-like PCBs in soil samples to the leeward of a known contaminated disassembly industrial park were much higher than that of the background investigation, and the levels of sediment samples downstream of this area were in the range 2.25-34.6 pg g(-1) (dw). The levels of WHO-TEQ in soil and sediment samples decreased with an increase in distance from the researched pollution source. The principal component analysis demonstrated that the PCDD/Fs and dioxin-like PCBs in major part of contaminated sediment and soil samples derived from the correlative matrix. Yet the different distribution patterns of them in part of sediment samples strongly indicate that other potential sources may be exist, further researches should be done to get more information about the sources and the distributions of the PCDD/Fs and PCBs. 相似文献

PCDD/F concentrations of agricultural soil in the vicinity of fluidized bed incinerators of co-firing MSW with coal in Hangzhou, China 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The concentrations of 17PCDD/F congeners as well as tetra- to octa-homologues were determined in 33 soil samples collected within a radius of 7 km from a municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration plant that is equipped with three fluidized bed incinerators (FBIs) of co-firing MSW with coal in Hangzhou, China. The total PCDD/F concentrations ranged from 0.39 to 5.04 pg I-TEQ g(-1) (54-285 pg g(-1)), with an average and a median value of 1.22 and 0.84 pg I-TEQ g(-1) (105 and 86 pg g(-1)), respectively. A systematic decrease of PCDD/F levels was observed with the increasing distances and with the decreasing downwind frequencies from the plant. The comparisons of homologue and congener patterns and multivariate analysis of soil and flue gas samples strongly indicated that most of the soil samples were influenced by the FBIs. Apart from the incineration plant, historical PCDD/F emissions of hazardous waste incinerator (HWI) and motor vehicles as well as the application of 1,3,5-trichloro-2-(4-nitrophenoxy) benzene (CNP) seemed to play an important role in soil samples adjacent to these potential sources. 相似文献

In this study, the contamination of soil by PCDD/Fs and other dioxin-like chemicals in the vicinity of Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators (MSWIs) and Hazardous Waste Incinerators (HWIs) is estimated by the XDS-CALUX bioassay. The resulting CALUX-TEQ value is compared with the WHO-TEQ value obtained from HRGC/HRMS analysis, in order to validate the CALUX bioassay as suitable screening method for PCDD/Fs determination of soil samples. The results show that the CALUX-TEQ and the WHO-TEQ values are significantly correlated (R = 0.87). The WHO-TEQ and CALUX-TEQ of soil samples collected from four waste incineration plants in China were in the range from 1.72 to 31.4 pg-TEQ/g and 1.71 to 44.2 pg-TEQ/g respectively, with a mean value of 6.09 pg-TEQ/g and 11.0 pg-TEQ/g. Considering the homologue patterns, a principal component analysis (PCA) and a hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) of the PCDD/Fs in the soil samples, the emissions of MSWIs and HWIs were probably not the only source of PCDD/Fs. 相似文献

Patterns and sources of PCDD/Fs and dioxin-like PCBs in surface sediments from the East River, China 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The contamination status of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL-PCBs) was preliminarily investigated in surface sediments collected from the East River during April 2007. The contamination levels of PCDD/Fs and DL-PCBs ranged from 2.1 to 9.8 with mean concentration of 4.5 pg WHO98-TEQ g−1 and ranged from 0.042 to 0.45 with mean concentration of 0.19 pg WHO98-TEQ g−1, respectively. All sediments were characterized by the elevated levels of PCDDs, especially OCDD. Higher concentrations of PCDD/Fs were found in the sediments from Guangzhou and Dongguan. Source analysis revealed that PCDD/Fs in the sediments from Guangzhou were mainly from the secondary copper smelters and steel-making plants, and PCDD/Fs in the sediment from Dongguan were mainly from MSWIs. PCP and paper mills were unlikely to be the main sources. 相似文献

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in the surrounding environment (outdoor) and workplace air of two municipal solid waste incinerators (MSWIs, T and M) were characterized and compared. T and M represented two typical municipal solid waste incinerators in the north of Taiwan, which have different processes for controlling the PCDD/F emissions. The results of this study are summarized as follows. (1) The total PCDD/F and the total PCDD/F WHO-TEQ concentrations in the workplace air were 5-13 and 5-15 times higher than those in the outdoor air, respectively. Obviously, it is worthwhile to explore more on health risk assessment for exposure of PCDD/Fs emitted from MSWIs, particularly in the workplace air. (2) Mean total PCDD/F I-TEQ concentrations in the outdoor air ranged between 0.0216 and 0.155 pg I-TEQ/Nm(3) and averaged 0.0783 pg I-TEQ/Nm(3) (0.0828 pg WHO-TEQ/Nm(3)) during two seasons for two MSWIs, which were 6.5-fold higher than that of a remote site (0.0119 pg I-TEQ/Nm(3) or 0.0132 pg WHO-TEQ/Nm(3)) in Taiwan. However, the above outdoor air concentration levels in the MSWIs were still much lower than the air quality limitation of PCDD/Fs (0.6 pg I-TEQ/Nm(3)) in Japan []. (3) PCDFs were the primary toxicity distributors for PCDD/Fs in the outdoor air, since the ratios of PCDDs/PCDFs (I-TEQ) at all sampling sites ranged from 0.180 to 0.492 and were less than unity. (4) The OCDD, OCDF, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDD and 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDF were the four dominant species in both workplace and outdoor air near MSWIs. (5) By spraying water on and wetting both the fly and bottom ashes, the mean total PCDD/F I-TEQ concentration in the workplace air was reduced 86.9% in the T MSWI. The above results indicate an appropriate improving action did inhibit the fugitive emission of PCDD/Fs and reduce the health risk of workers during work handling ashes in MSWIs. 相似文献

Calcium-based sorbents are widely employed to reduce the acidic gases emission from combustion processes, and also have effects on trace organic pollutants formation and emission. Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of calcium-based sorbents on pentachlorophenol (PCP) forming PCDDs/Fs during high temperature combustion processes. The results indicated that highly chlorinated PCDD/F homologues were the predominant dioxin products from PCP thermo decomposition, and only minor increasing of PCDDs happened when Ca/Cl ratio was lower than 1, while a major jump occurred when Ca/Cl ratio increased from 1 to 2. The CaO addition clearly promoted the production of all chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins homologue and 4-7DFs homologue. Comparison of total PCDD/F emission and its I-TEQ for three different calcium-based sorbents addition (CaO, CaCO3, basic fly ash) indicated that CaO and fly ash containing CaO had almost the same promotion effects on PCDDs/Fs originated from PCP, while CaCO3 inhibit PCDD/F formation greatly with inhibition efficiency up to 70%. Such effects may be partly proved by the observed clearly different micro-surface structures of their reaction residues. The mechanism of CaO on condensation and dechlorination reactions for PCP forming PCDDs and acid-base interaction were proposed to speculate the promotion effects of CaO, and the reaction precedence was used to speculate the inhibition effects of CaCO3 on PCDDs/Fs originated from PCP. The results of the present paper might be useful for the industrial application of calcium-based sorbents to control PCDD/F emission. 相似文献

Concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in water and suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected from the Xijiang River, China, were measured by the quarter from September 2005 to June 2006. Total PCDD/F concentration ranged from 2.659 to 4.596pg/L for water and from 562.4 to 3259.5pg/g for SPM. Concentrations were high in summer and low in winter. I-TEQ values in water and SPM were low, ranging from 0.012 to 0.075pg/L, with a mean value of 0.039pg/L. Calculated annual loadings of total PCDD/Fs and I-TEQ were 8.55kg and 0.026kg, respectively. Composition and homologue distribution of PCDD/Fs were varied because of large seasonal differences in discharge from the Xijiang River into the South China Sea. Comparison of the PCDD/Fs homologue and congener profiles of atmospheric deposition, soil, and water revealed that soil was the dominant source of PCDD/Fs in the Xijiang River. Industrial effluents were also possible sources of PCDD/Fs. A good correlation between logK(oc) and logK(ow) was observed for 2,3,7,8-substituted PCDDs and PCDFs and correlation coefficients were 0.71 and 0.84, indicating organic matter in SPM played a dominant role in PCDD/Fs partition between SPM and water. 相似文献

Dioxin emission factors for different combustion categories range over five orders of magnitude. Both chlorine (Cl(2)) and transition metals, including copper (Cu) have been suggested to promote the formation of dioxin in incinerators, and sulphur (S) has been suggested to inhibit dioxin formation. We show that dioxin (PCDD and PCDF) emission factors from 17 different combustion categories are approximately linearly correlated with the average copper or chlorine content of the combusted material, and inverse linearly correlated with the average sulphur content of the material. Copper and chlorine are correlated and, thus cannot be distinguished. The analysis suggests that the wide range of dioxin emission factors could be explained by the content of sulphur and transition metals or chlorine in combusted materials. 相似文献

Adopting strict cleanroom procedures, ice samples from the Canadian High Arctic have been analyzed for Pb concentrations and Pb isotopes (206Pb, 207Pb, 208Pb) using ICP-SMS. The detection limit for Pb (0.06 pg g(-1)) was approximately 2 orders of magnitude lower than the lowest concentration of Pb in the ice samples (range, 4.3-1660 pg g(-1); median, 45 pg g(-1)). Acidification of ice samples with high-purity HNO3 for stabilization purposes contributed only 0.004 pg of Pb g(-1), which is an insignificant source of Pb. Using a new sample introduction system consisting of a heated (140 degrees C) minicyclonic spray chamber and a Peltier cooled condenser (2 degrees C) and by replacing the conventional sample cone with a high-performance cone, signal intensities for Pb were increased by approximately 1 order of magnitude. Thus, it was possible not only to measure Pb isotope ratios directly using ICP-SMS but also to achieve reasonable precision (approximately 0.2%) at low picogram per gram concentrations of total Pb. This precision is comparable to that achievable by thermal ionization mass spectrometry at such low Pb concentrations, but the ICP-SMS requires much less sample volume (approximately 2 mL), needs no sample pretreatment, and therefore is considerably faster and less expensive than the conventional approach. Even though absolute Pb concentrations in two ice samples dating from 1974 and 1852 were very similar (9 and 6 pg g(-1)) their fundamentally different isotopic signature (206Pb/207Pb: 1.169 +/- 0.002 vs 1.147 +/- 0.003) clearly indicates different sources of Pb. The analytical procedures described here, therefore, offer great promise for fingerprinting the predominant sources of atmospheric Pb in polar snow and ice. 相似文献

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) levels in a total of 25 food items in Taiwan were surveyed. It was observed that shellfish and saltwater fish possessed the highest PCDD/Fs levels, 9.82 and 3.60 pg WHO-TEQ/g, respectively, on the lipid basis. The dietary intakes of humans at the ages of 12-18, 19-64, and over 65 were determined. The estimated intake were between 21.8 pg (female teenagers) and 37.6 pg (male seniors) WHO-TEQ/day; the levels varied with the dietary habits. The PCDD/F intakes for all human groups are far below the tolerable limit of 70 pg WHO-TEQ/kg b.w./month. In addition, the daily PCDD/F intake levels for duck-farmers consuming average and large amounts of PCDD/F contaminated duck eggs were examined. The result shows that consuming more than one duck egg with level higher than 10 pg WHO-TEQ/g lipid of PCDD/Fs per day could lead to a PCDD/F intake level higher than the tolerable limit. However, for normal population, there is a little risk to ingest intolerable amount of PCDD/Fs because of consuming contaminated duck eggs. 相似文献

As a comprehensive monitoring survey on polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in Kaohsiung, 40 ambient air samples taken from 10 locations in four seasons were studied. PCDD/F concentrations at 0.312-4.58pgNm(-3) and I-TEQ values, ranging from 0.0319 to 0.256pgNm(-3) were determined for these samples, which were comparable to those of other urban cities. However, unlike studies on some other urban cities, the ambient air in Kaohsiung did not exhibit regular seasonality in PCDD/F concentrations. All samples were predominated, in common, by congeners OCDD, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDF, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDD, OCDF and 2,3,4,7,8-PeCDF. The congener profiles of the samples generally did not display any seasonal trend, either. The insignificant seasonality and constancy of congener profiles with time were attributed to the constant influence by emission sources in a metal-producing center, thereby resulting in high atmospheric dioxin levels in the nearby district. Principal component analyses identified that dioxin emissions in ambient air of the city originated from electric arc furnaces (EAFs) and sinter plants in the center. Concentration isopleth analyses assessing pollution sources and ambient air of the district also confirmed that its atmosphere was affected largely by the EAFs and sinter plants. 相似文献

We developed a conceptual feasible design of bioreactor system for treatment of dioxin-contaminated soils that uses the dioxin-degrading fungus Pseudallescheria boydii (P. boydii) we had isolated. The dioxin-degradation conditions in bioreactor treatment was established by clarifying the inhibiting factors for the growth of P. boydii using both real contaminated and laboratory prepared soils mixed with fly ash. In addition, ethanol extraction process as post-treatment methods for the remaining dioxins, and the sterilization conditions of P. boydii, i.e., a weakly pathogenic fungus, in the residue was investigated. The better growth conditions of P. boydii were found to be chloride ion concentration of less than 10 g/L and a pH of less than 9. Under these conditions, 7310 pg-TEQ/g of the soil was treated to 2860 pg-TEQ/g by the bioreactor process, and the dioxin concentration was further decreased to 580 pg-TEQ/g by ethanol extraction, resulting to total removal ratio of 92%. Furthermore, development of an effective sterilization method for living P. boydii in the residue increased the applicability of our bioreactor system for practical use in dioxin-contaminated sites. 相似文献

针对如何在臭氧紫外光-滑动弧系统中建立稳定的二恶英发生源用于降解二恶英的实验系统.该发生源以医疗垃圾飞灰为对象,通过加热飞灰本身和飞灰索提液的方式使其中的二恶英在一段时间内连续挥发.结果表明,290℃时在飞灰发生源系统中,二恶英初始阶段挥发速率极快,后续的挥发速率急剧减小并趋于稳定,总挥发量仅为总量的10%,且难以再提高.相比而言索提液发生源系统挥发出的二恶英更多更稳定,但其挥发量受温度和注射速度的影响较大:当注射速度为1μL.min-1时,在300℃、400℃、500℃三个不同温度段分别为2.78%、7.88%和9.56%;当温度为500℃,注射速度为0.2 mL.min-1时,其挥发率提高到48.7%.研究还发现,注射针头与管壁的残余量是影响挥发效率的两个重要因素,当温度为500℃,载气为1000 mL.min-1,注射速度为0.2 mL.min-1时,连续进样1 h后,两者的残余量分别占注射总量的40.0%和16.7%. 相似文献

Dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs in different fish from the river Elbe and its tributaries, Germany 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

In a long-term program polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) as well as dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL-PCBs) were analyzed in the muscle tissue of eels (Anguilla anguilla), bream (Abramis brama), European chub (Leuciscus cephalus) and ide (Leuciscus idus) from the river Elbe and its tributaries Mulde and Saale. The variation of the PCDD/F and DL-PCB concentrations in all fish samples is very large, whereby the DL-PCBs predominate in comparison to the PCDD/Fs. In the eels, the concentrations (pg WHO-TEQ/g ww) for the PCDD/Fs lie in the range of 0.48-22 and for the DL-PCBs between 8.5 and 59. In the whitefish, the concentration range is 0.48-12 for the PCDD/Fs and 1.2-14 for the DL-PCBs. Statistical analysis using relative congener patterns for PCDD/Fs allow spatial correlations to be examined for sub-populations of eels and whitefish. The results are compared to the maximum levels laid down in the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 466/2001 and the action levels of the European Commission Recommendation 2006/88/EC. Eels caught directly after the major flood in August 2002 as well as eels near Hamburg (years 1996 and 1998) show high concentration peaks. Compared to the eels whitefish is less contaminated with PCDD/Fs and DL-PCBs. 相似文献

Concentrations of tetra- through octa-chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) were determined in exterior window films from Manhattan and Brooklyn in New York City (NYC), USA, 6 weeks after the World Trade Center (WTC) attacks of 11 September 2001. High concentrations of the 2,3,7,8-substituted congeners (P(2378)CDD/Fs) were observed, at levels up to 6600 pg-TEQ g(-1) nearest the WTC site. An equilibrium partitioning model was developed to reconstruct total gas + particle-phase atmospheric concentrations of P(2378)CDD/Fs at each site. The reconstructed atmospheric and window film concentrations were subsequently used in a preliminary human health risk assessment to estimate the potential cancer and non-cancer risks posed to residents of lower Manhattan from these contaminants over the 6 week exposure period between the WTC attacks and sampling dates. Residents of lower Manhattan appear to have a slightly elevated cancer risk (up to 1.6% increase over background) and increased P(2378)CDD/F body burden (up to 8.0% increase over background) because of above-background exposure to high concentrations of P(2378)CDD/Fs produced from the WTC attacks during the short period between 11 September 2001, and window film sampling 6 weeks later. 相似文献

We measured the concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) from the flue gas and the ambient atmosphere of a power plant fueled by heavy oil in northern Taiwan. The mean emission concentration and I-TEQ concentration of total PCDD/Fs were 0.292 ng/Nm(3) and 0.016 ng I-TEQ/Nm(3), respectively. All PCDD/F emission concentrations in the flue gas were supposed to meet the Environmental Protection Administration Executive Yuan, R.O.C. standard (1.0 ng I-TEQ/Nm(3) from 2008). Furthermore, the mean I-TEQ concentration in the ambient atmosphere was 0.011 pg I-TEQ/Nm(3), which was much lower than the environmental quality standards for dioxins in Japan (0.6 pg TEQ/Nm(3)). Also, the PCDD/F emission factor was 0.188 ng I-TEQ/L fuel, which was comparable to the data issued in US EPA [EPA, Locating and estimating air emissions from sources of dioxins and furans, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, Research Triangle Park, NC, DCN No. 95-298130-54-01, 1997] (0.2 ng I-TEQ/L of fuel). Also, the result of the correlations of PCDD/Fs and operational parameters illustrated that the positively significant correlation (r=0.502, p=0.048) was found only between PCDD/Fs (I-TEQ) and the flue gas emission temperature (125-157 degrees C). However, PCDD-TEQ/PCDF-TEQ ratios were statistically significantly associated with the decreased flue gas flow (r=-0.659, p=0.006), moisture (r=-0.612, p=0.012) and flue gas temperature (r=-0.503, p=0.047). For proper environmental management of dioxins, it is necessary to establish a complete emission inventory of PCDD/Fs, and, in particular, the government should pay more attention to power plants to address the information shortage. 相似文献

This study determined the polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) contents in ash in the super heater (SH), economizer (EC), semi-dryer absorber (SDA), fabric filter (FF), fly ash pit (FAP) and bottom residue (BR) in a municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI). A high-resolution gas chromatograph/high-resolution mass spectrometer (HRGC/HRMS) was utilized for analyzing 17 PCDD/F species. Experimental results showed that average PCDD/F contents in ash samples from the SH, EC, SDA, FF, FAP and BR were 0.102, 0.788, 0.210, 1.95, 2.04 and 0.0218 ng I-TEQ g(-1), respectively. PCDD/F content was very low in the SH and BR due to high temperatures (around 461 degrees C in the SH and 914 degrees C in combustion chamber). Conversely, total PCDD/F content was significantly high in ash samples from the EC (around 340 degrees C), mainly because the temperature is within the favorable range of 250-400 degrees C for PCDD/F formation due to de nova reformation mechanisms. Although the SDA operated at 245 degrees C, the PCDD/F content decreased very significantly, mainly because the temperature was relatively low and because calcium carbonate was introduced into flue gases to dechlorinate and dilute chlorine-containing species. PCDD/Fs were captured by the active carbon in the FF. Furthermore, the duration that fly ash remained in the FF was longer than that for other incinerator units, and thus causing an increasing trend of PCDD/Fs level downstream (except the SDA). Total PCDD/Fs emission factors (microg tonnes-waste(-1); microg I-TEQ tonnes-waste(-1)) in ash samples from different units were: SH (42.3; 0.846), EC (326; 6.12), SDA (58.1; 1.10), FF (1540; 61.3), FAP (2950; 107) and BR (537; 4.31). Most PCDD/Fs in ash were contributed by the FF (about 56%), and the generation of PCDD/Fs in ash was significant (about 35%) during the transfer process from different units to the FAP. A strong and positive correlation in a logarithmic form existed between PCDD/Fs and chlorine (Cl(-1)) contents in ash. In Taiwan, the government policy for incineration residues advocates their reuse as road sub-bases or secondary building materials provided that total PCDD/Fs content is below the legal limit (1 ng I-TEQ g(-1)). Thus, ash with total PCDD/Fs content below the legal limit, such as that from the SH, EC, SDA and BR, can be collected and transferred to the FAP and reused. Ash with total PCDD/Fs content exceeding the legal limit, such as that from the FF, should be collected separately and be treated properly before being disposal in a landfill. 相似文献

Removal characteristics of PCDD/Fs by the dual bag filter system of a fly ash treatment plant 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In this study, a dual bag filter system was established to decrease the concentration of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in the stack flue gases of a fly ash treatment plant, which retained zinc from the fly ash of electric arc furnaces. Compared to the original single bag filter system with activated carbon injection (ACI) of 40 kg h(-1), the PCDD/F concentrations in the stack flue gas after the plant was equipped with the dual bag filter system dropped enormously from 3.38-7.73 ng I-TEQNm(-3) to 0.03 ng I-TEQNm(-3), and the total PCDD/F I-TEQ removal efficiency increased from 97.6% to 99.3% with ACI of 16 kg h(-1), that is, about 40% of the original AC usage. The AC utilization efficiency (0.560 mg I-TEQ absorbed kg ACI(-1)) of the dual bag filter system (AC: 16 kg h(-1)) was estimated about three times higher than that (0.192 mg I-TEQ absorbed kg ACI(-1)) of single bag filter system with ACI (40 kg h(-1)). The reason is that the particulate phase PCDD/Fs and some gas phase PCDD/Fs (captured by the recycled AC/ash mixture) were removed first by the first bag filter, and the rest of the gas phase PCDD/Fs were able to be adsorbed more completely by the AC/ash mixture due to a lower fly ash load, and then were removed by the second bag filter. 相似文献

Analysis of octyl- and nonylphenol and their ethoxylates in water and sediments by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The ubiquitous presence of alkylphenol ethoxylates in the environment as well as concern for endocrine disruption effects in biota caused by their degradation products (such as octyl- and nonylphenol) has raised interest in the environmental fate of these compounds. As part of an effort to model their behavior in a subestuary of the Chesapeake Bay, a quantitative method for the analysis of octyl- and nonylphenol, and their ethoxylates (1-5) in water and sediment was developed. Extraction procedures are based on solid-phase extraction techniques. Identification and quantitation of the analytes is done by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Instrument detection limits for the compounds ranged from 0.1 to 9 pg injected on column, which allowed method detection limits of 0.04-3 ng/L in water and 0.2-13 ng/g of dry weight in sediment. The method was used to analyze water and sediment from the Back River, MD, where concentrations for the individual compounds ranged from <8 to 200 ng/L in water and <9 to 6700 ng/g of dry weight in sediment. Additionally, structural information obtained in the mass spectrometer is presented that supports previous observations that nonylphenol and its ethoxylates are composed mainly of isomers with a tertiary alpha-carbon. 相似文献

Hair samples collected from e-waste recycling workers (n=23 males, n=4 females) were analyzed to assess occupational exposures to polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) at a large e-waste recycling facility in Taizhou, eastern China. Hair samples from a reference population composed of residents of Shanghai (n=11) were analyzed for comparison. The mean concentration of ∑PBDEs (range, 22.8-1020 ng/g dw; mean, 157 ng/g dw) found in hair samples from e-waste recycling workers was approximately 3 times higher than the mean determined for the reference samples. The congener profiles of PBDEs in hair from e-waste recycling workers were dominated by BDE 209, whereas the profiles in the reference-population samples showed comparable levels of BDE 47 and BDE 209. Total PCDD/F concentrations in hair from e-waste workers (range, 126-5820 pg/g dw; mean, 1670 pg/g dw) were approximately 18-fold greater than the concentrations measured in hair from the reference population. Concentrations of PCDFs were greater than concentrations of PCDDs, in all of the hair samples analyzed (samples from e-waste and non-e-waste sites). Tetrachlorodibenzofurans (TCDFs) were the major homologues in hair samples. Overall, e-waste recycling workers had elevated concentrations of both PBDEs and PCDD/Fs, indicating that they are exposed to high levels of multiple persistent organic pollutants. 相似文献
