[Method] 15 PAHs were stud- ied for pollution characteristics, source analysis and ecological risk assessment at 60 sites in Hohhot farmland. [Result] The results showed that the total contents of 15 PAHs (:EPAHs) in 60 sampling points of Hohhot farmland were in the range of 114-948 ~g/kg, with an average content of 338 pg/kg. According to soil PAH as- sessment standards, more than 70% of soil in Hohhot City was lightly polluted, and there were no heavily-polluted points. The soil of the area was mainly polluted by PAHs with high molecular weights, which accounted for 74% of the total content. The soil in suburban farmland of Hohhot suffered from the heaviest pollution. Quan- titative analysis showed that PAH pollution in Hohhot farmland was mainly from combustion of coal, coke and timber and automotive exhaust emission. [Conclusion] Ecological effect interval method and method of equivalents equivalent to benzo (a) pyrene toxicity benzo [a] pyrene both proved that there is certain potential ecological risk for soil of Hohhot farmland, and PAHs with high molecular weights such as benzo (a) pyrene and dibenzo [a, h] anthracene are main potential pollutants with ecological risk.展开更多

Here we present a new method designed to evaluate the ability of winter wheat(Triticum aestivum) to contribute to the dissipation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs), which are priority pollutants in soils contaminated by oily sludge. The influence of different doses of oily sludge on the dissipation of PAHs was studied along with individual PAH profiles in soils after different periods of plant growth. Five soil samples were artificially contaminated with different percentages of oily sludge(0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 %). Winter wheat grew in the oily sludge–amended soils for 265 days.PAH content in the soils was monitored over the course of the study. The rate of PAH dissipation is related to the properties of different PAHs, period of winter wheat growth, and oily sludge application dose. Analysis for treated soils indicates that the dissipation of PAHs increased significantly over the first 212 days, followed by minimal changes over the final 53 days of treatment. In contrast, PAH dissipation slowed with increasing oily sludge application. For each PAH, the experimental results showed a significant compound-dependent trend. Winter wheat in the present study significantly enhanced the dissipation of PAHs in oily sludge–contaminated soil.展开更多

According to the results, Hg was the primary heavy metal pollutant in Blue Economic Zone, followed by Cd, Cu, and Pb as prevalent pollutants. Heavy metals ranked in order of their pollution degrees are: Hg>Cd>Cu>Pb>Zn>Cr>As;the potential ecological risks of heavy metals follow the order of Hg>Cd>As>Pb>Cu>Cr>Zn. Heavy metal pollutions did exist in this region to a certain extent, and the percentage of potential ecological risk in “strong” and “severe” degree reached up to 13.75%. This composite risk characteristic was subject to the restriction of Hg and Cd mainly distributed in Laizhou-Zhaoyuan- Yantai, Muping-Rushan Goldmine, and other densely-populated regions, threatening the safety production of crops. The combined effects of geological background and human activities, e.g. gold mining and domestic pollutants, were the main causes of high potential ecological risks of heavy metals in local environment.展开更多

Heavy metal and green pesticide pollutions in urban soils have been widely reported with the expanding of urbanization. Since urban soil pollution comes from various resources, application of integrated thinking and methods is needed in ecological risk assessment of urban soil pollution. This paper synthetically reviewed the combined pollution of heavy metals and pesticide, and ecological risk assessment, and then proposed some research trends and areas in the future that are required to carry out intensively according to the present situation of environmental pollution and international research fronts.展开更多
