Lead life cycle was traced based on the concepts of anthropogenic transfer and transformation. Lead transfer and the distribution of chemical species throughout the anthropogenic flow were identified in 2010 in China. The results show that 1.85 Mt lead ore was consumed(besides 1.287 Mt imported concentrated ore and 1.39 Mt lead scraps. After undergoing transformations, 3.53 Mt lead entered end services in chemical species of Pb, Pb O2 and PbSO4, altogether accounting for over 80% of the total lead products. Finally, 2.10 Mt ore was emitted into the environment in such species as PbSO4(26%), PbO(19%) and Pb(15%). Lead transfer begins in primary raw material sectors, and then transfers to manufacturing sectors. Lead provides services mainly in such industrial sectors as transportation, electrical power and buildings or construction.展开更多

Our objectives were to characterize the scaling properties and the possible connections between volume-based and number-based PSDs by applying single and joint multifractal analysis. Twelve soil samples were taken from selected sites in Northwest China and their PSDs were analyzed using laser diffractometry. The results indicated that the volume-based PSDs of all 12 samples and the number-based PSDs of 4 samples had multifractal scalings for moment order -6 〈 q 〈: 6. Some empirical relationships were identified between the extreme probability values, maximum probability (Pmax), minimum probability (Pmin), and Pmax/Pmin, and the multifractal indices, the difference and the ratio of generalized dimensions at q = 0 and 1 (Do - D1 and D1/Do), maximum and minimum singularity strength (αmax and OZmin) and their difference (αmax - αmin, spectrum width), and asymmetric index (RD). An increase in Pmax generally resulted in corresponding increases of Do - D1, αmax, αmax - αmin, and RD, which indicated that a large Pmax increased the multifractality of a distribution. Joint multifractal analysis showed that there was significant correlation between the scaling indices of volume-based and number-based PSDs. The multifractality indices indicated that for a given soil, the volume-based PSD was more homogeneous than the number-based PSD, and more likely to display monofractal rather than multifractal scaling.展开更多
