  Environmental persistent free radicals (EPFRs) are receiving growing concerns owing to their potentially adverse impacts on human health. Road dust is one important source of air pollution in most cities and may pose significant health risks. Characteristics of EPFRs in urban road dusts and its formation mechanism(s) are still rarely studied. Here, we evaluated occurrence and size distributions of EPFRs in road dusts from different functional areas of an urban city, and assessed relationship between EPFRs and some transition metals. Strong electron paramagnetic resonance signals of 6.01 × 1016 - 1.3 × 1019 spins/g with the mean g value of 2.0029 ± 0.0019 were observed, indicating that EPFRs consisted of a mixture of C-centered radicals, and C-centered radicals with an adjacent oxygen atom in the urban road dust. Much more EPFRs enriched in finer dust particles. EPFRs significantly correlated with the total Fe, but not water-soluble Fe, suggesting different impacts of water-soluble and insoluble metals in the formation of EFPRs. Health risk assessment results indicated high risk potentials via the ingestion and dermal exposure to EPFRs in road dusts. Future studies are calling to look into formation mechanisms of EPFRs in urban road dusts and to quantitatively evaluate its potential risks on human health.

  Emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), have been detected in the environment and breast milk, thus exposing infants to potentially harmful chemicals during breastfeeding. Breast milk contains secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), an antibody that plays a vital role in disease protection and the development of the infant's immune system. This study employed molecular simulation and fractional factorial designs to assess the toxicity of NPs and PFAS on breast milk and their influence on infant immunity by inhibiting SIgA. The research found that NPs and PFAS have higher binding affinities to SIgA compared to the control compound. Polycarbonate (-10.7 kcal/mol) had the highest binding affinity among plastics, while Perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA, - 8.0 kcal/mol) had the highest binding affinity among PFAS. The relative toxic index was higher for PFAS (2.4) than for plastics (1.9), suggesting that PFAS may pose a higher overall toxicity burden on the protein. The presence of specific combinations of NPs and PFAS in breast milk may potentially harm breastfeeding infants, although additional experimental studies are required to validate these findings. These results underscore the potential risks associated with these emerging contaminants in breast milk and their impact on infant immunity.

  ACS nano, 2023年07月, ［国際誌］
  Natural plant fibers such as cotton have favorable performance in water and moisture management; however, they suffer from inferior processing ability due to limited diameter and length, as well as natural defects. Although commercially available regenerated cellulose fibers such as lyocell fibers can have tunable structures, they rely on the complete dissolution of cellulose molecules, including the highly crystalline parts, leading to inferior mechanical properties. Through a specially designed coaxial wet-spinning process, we prepare a type of hollow fiber using only cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) as building blocks. It mimics cotton fibers with a lumen structure but with a tunable diameter and a long length. Moreover, such hollow fibers have superior mechanical properties with a Young's modulus of 24.7 GPa and tensile strength of 341 MPa, surpassing lyocell fibers and most wet-spun CNF-based fibers. Importantly, they have 10 times higher wicking ability, wetting rate, drying rate, and maximum wetting ratio compared to lyocell fibers. Together with a superior long-term performance after 500 rounds of wetting-drying tests, such CNF-based hollow fibers are sustainable choices for advanced textile applications. And this study provides a greater understanding of nanoscale building blocks and their assembled macromaterials, which may help to reveal the magic hierarchical design of natural materials, in this case, plant fibers.

  Mineral particles in air could provide atmospheric chemical reaction interface for gaseous substances and participate in atmospheric chemical reaction process, and affecting the status and levels of gaseous pollutants in air. However, differences of the heterogenous reaction on the surface minerals particles are not very clear. Considering main mineral composition of ambient particles was from dust emission, therefore, typical clay minerals (chlorite, illite) and desert particles (Taklimakan Desert) were selected to analysize chemical reaction of NO2, one of major gaseous pollutants, on mineral particles by using of In-situ DRIFTS (diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy) under different condition. And In situ near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (In situ NAP-XPS) was employed to investigate iron (one of the major metals) species variation on the surface of mineral dust particles during the heterogeneous reactions. Our data show that humidity controlled by deuterium oxide (D2O) has a greater effect on chemical reactions compared to light and temperature. Under dry conditions, the amount of heterogeneous reaction products of NO2 on the particles shows Xiaotang dust > chlorite > illite > Tazhong dust regardless of dark or light conditions. In contrast, under humidity conditions, the order of nitrate product quantity under moderate conditions was chlorite > illite > Xiaotang dust > Tazhong dust. In situ NAP-XPS results demonstrate that specie variation of the Fe could promote the heterogenous reactions. These data could provide useful information for understanding the formation mechanism of nitrate aerosols and removal of nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere.

  The loading of homogeneous catalysts with support can dramatically improve their performance in olefin polymerization. However, the challenge lies in the development of supported catalysts with well-defined pore structures and good compatibility to achieve high catalytic activity and product performance. Herein, we report the use of an emergent class of porous material-covalent organic framework material (COF) as a carrier to support metallocene catalyst-Cp2 ZrCl2 for ethylene polymerization. The COF-supported catalyst demonstrates a higher catalytic activity of 31.1×106  g mol-1  h-1 at 140 °C, compared with 11.2×106  g mol-1  h-1 for the homogenous one. The resulting polyethylene (PE) products possess higher weight-average molecular weight (Mw ) and narrower molecular weight distribution (Ð) after COF supporting, that is, Mw increases from 160 to 308 kDa and Ð drops from 3.3 to 2.2. The melting point (Tm ) is also increased by up to 5.2 °C. Moreover, the PE product possesses a characteristic filamentous microstructure and demonstrates an increased tensile strength from 19.0 to 30.7 MPa and elongation at break from 350 to 1400 % after catalyst loading. We believe that the use of COF carriers will facilitate the future development of supported catalysts for highly efficient olefin polymerization and high-performance polyolefins.

  Chemical upcycling of polyethylene (PE) can convert plastic waste into valuable resources. However, engineering a catalyst that allows PE decomposition at low temperatures with high activity remains a significant challenge. Herein, we anchored 0.2 wt.% platinum (Pt) on defective two-dimensional tungsten trioxide (2D WO3 ) nanosheets and achieved hydrocracking of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) waste at 200-250 °C with a liquid fuel (C5-18 ) formation rate up to 1456 gproducts  ⋅ gmetal species -1  ⋅ h-1 . The reaction pathway over the bifunctional 2D Pt/WO3 is elucidated by quasi-operando transmission infrared spectroscopy, where (I) well-dispersed Pt immobilized on 2D WO3 nanosheets trigger the dissociation of hydrogen; (II) adsorption of PE and activation of C-C cleavage on WO3 are through the formation of C=O/C=C intermediates; (III) intermediates are converted to alkane products by the dissociated H. Our study directly illustrates the synergistic role of bifunctional Pt/WO3 catalyst in the hydrocracking of HDPE, paving the way for the development of high-performance catalysts with optimized chemical and morphological properties.

  Garri from cassava is one of the most consumed foods in West Africa, hence this research was conducted to examine microplastics (MPs) and potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in garri from Nigeria (West Africa) and Japan. This is the first investigation on MPs in garri samples that has been reported in the literature. The study analyzed both packaged and unpackaged vended garri samples using microscopic/spectroscopic and X-ray fluorescence techniques for MPs and PTEs respectively. Microplastic particles in the garri samples ranged from (or were between) 2.00±2.00 - 175.00±25.16 particles/50 with > 90 % as fragments and consisted of polyacrylamide, polyethylene terepthalate, polyvinyl alcohol, high density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride acrylonitrile, polyethylene chlorinated, polypropylene with silicate mix, polychloroprene and polyethylene chlorosulphonated. The mean concentration of PTEs raged from ND to 0.07 mg/g for Cr and Mn, 0.73 to 5.63 mg/g for Fe, ND to 0.57mg/g for Co, 0.23 to 1.21 mg/g for Ni, 0.15 to 1.53 mg/g for Cu, and 0.12 to 0.63 mg/g for Zn. However, their daily intake was low for both adult and children as with the MPs. The sources of MPs and PTEs were mainly from the garri production processes, atmospheric dusts and during packaging. The non-carcinogenic risk for all samples was low for MPs while in openly vended garri, Ni and Cr in all sample poses carcinogenic risks. There is a need to improve indigenous garri processing techniques to minimize contamination. This research emphasizes the critical necessity to understand the consequences of MPs on human health.

  Group 1 protease allergens that persist in fecal particles from house dust mites (HDM) are the prevalent indoor aeroallergens and the primary triggers of dust mite allergy. Consequently, it is vital to discover a secure, efficient, affordable, and eco-friendly inhibitor to restrain these allergens. Herein, an assessment on the suppression of allergens Der f 1 and Der p 1 (predominant Group 1 allergens) with todomatsu oil derived from the remnants of Abies sachalinensis was performed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and molecular docking analysis in silico. The results demonstrated that todomatsu oil effectively suppresses allergens Der f 1 and Der p 1 by lowering their allergen contents, and the decline rate rises with increasing todomatsu oil concentration. The formation of alkyl hydrophobic interactions, pi-sigma bonds, and hydrogen bonds have been observed between oil ingredients and allergens Der f 1 and Der p 1. Intriguingly, the majority of oil ingredients prefer to dock on hydrophobic amino acids. Additionally, oil ingredients docked to the cysteine protease site on Der f 1 or IgG epitope on Der p 1 were discovered. Notably, the binding affinity (BA) score and inhibition constant (Ki) revealed that bornyl acetate, the component with the maximum relative proportion in todomatsu oil, is included in the top five ingredients with the best inhibition effectiveness. As a result, todomatsu oil has been identified as an efficient inhibitor against Group 1 HDM allergens and a viable measure to improve indoor air quality.

• Study on Thermal Degradation Processes of Polyethylene Terephthalate Microplastics Using the Kinetics and Artificial Neural Networks Models

  PROCESSES, 巻：11, 号：2, 2023年02月
  Because of its slow rate of disintegration, plastic debris has steadily risen over time and contributed to a host of environmental issues. Recycling the world's increasing debris has taken on critical importance. Pyrolysis is one of the most practical techniques for recycling plastic because of its intrinsic qualities and environmental friendliness. For scale-up and reactor design, an understanding of the degradation process is essential. Using one model-free kinetic approach (Friedman) and two model-fitting kinetic methods (Arrhenius and Coats-Redfern), the thermal degradation of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) microplastics at heating rates of 10, 20, and 30 degrees C/min was examined in this work. Additionally, a powerful artificial neural network (ANN) model was created to forecast the heat deterioration of PET MPs. At various heating rates, the TG and DTG thermograms from the PET MPs degradation revealed the same patterns and trends. This showed that the heating rates do not impact the decomposition processes. The Friedman model showed activation energy values ranging from 3.31 to 8.79 kJ/mol. The average activation energy value was 1278.88 kJ/mol from the Arrhenius model, while, from the Coats-Redfern model, the average was 1.05 x 10(4) kJ/mol. The thermodynamics of the degradation process of the PET MPs by thermal treatment were all non-spontaneous and endergonic, and energy was absorbed for the degradation. It was discovered that an ANN, with a two-layer hidden architecture, was the most effective network for predicting the output variable (mass loss%) with a regression coefficient value of (0.951-1.0).

  The prevalence of ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) pollinosis has been increasing worldwide. This study focused on the behavior of autumn airborne pollen and the major ragweed allergen -Amb a 1 particle in urban Saitama, Japan, in 2016. Burkard sampler results showed that the airborne ragweed pollen scattering season was from September 1st to October 9th. Over 83% of sampling events had pollen counts of over 13 grains/m(3), indicating the high potential health risks of ragweed pollen in the atmosphere. The results of a surface plasmon resonance immunoassay (SPR) indicated that the average Amb a 1 count was about 16.5 pg /pollen. The airborne Amb a 1 concentration was up to 4.7 ng/m(3), of which about 45% was accumulated in ultrafine particles, such as particulate matter with a diameter <= 1.1 mu m (PM1.1). Although ragweed pollen was hardly observed during the October 14th-17th sampling campaign, the concentration of ambient Amb a 1 particles in PM1.1 was also determined to be 4.59 ng/m(3), which could be explained by the longer scattering of fine particles in the atmosphere. Pearson correlation coefficient analysis results showed that temperature (daily, r = 0.41; event, r = 0.87) could affect the behavior of the airborne pollen counts, and ambient water-soluble ions (such as Ca2+ and NO3-) could affect Amb a 1 in PM1.1. Additionally, air mass trajectories and wind rose results indicated that air masses with long-range transportation could also influence the temporary behavior of Amb a 1 and pollen counts via the wind. Mugwort and Humulus japonicus pollens were also observed to extend pollen scattering periods. Airborne pollen and allergenic particles could be considered air pollutants, as they pose health risks and are susceptible to environmental influences.

  Following the discovery of plastics in the human placenta, this study evaluated the toxicity of ten different nanoplastics (NPs) in the human placenta. Since the placenta performs metabolic and excretion functions by the enzymatic system, the NPs were docked on these human enzymes including soluble epoxide hydrolase, uracil phosphoribosyltransferase, beta 1,3-glucuronyltransferase I, sulfotransferase, N-acetyltransferase 2, and cytochrome P450 1A1at their active sites with toxicity (binding affinity) determined and compared to control compounds. Density functional theory analysis were conducted on the NPs to identify their global reactivity descriptors and Artificial Neural Networks to predict toxicity based on reactivity descriptors. Polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polystyrene (PS) showed the highest toxicity to all enzymes and thus the most toxic polymers due to the presence of an electron-withdrawing group in their aromatic rings, which demonstrated an improved recognition of the enzyme active site by pi-and alkyl interactions. A 210-6 fractional factorial design approach was used in conjunction with a fixed effects model to assess the primary and secondary effects of NPs in a composite system on binding affinity to the placental enzymes. The simulation results suggest that NPs mixture may pose significant risks to the placenta through inhibition of its key enzymes.

  Food waste is a matter of deep concern as it is creating multidimensional threats to the environment. Though these are potential sources of plant nutrients, a detailed investigation has not yet been conducted. Hence, a physico-chemical characterization of non-edible food waste such as brinjal waste, potato peels, banana peels, orange peels, eggshells, cow bones, chicken bones, fish bones, and their combined waste was accomplished using FTIR, TGA, XGT-5000, CHN corder, etc. The present study revealed that plant waste samples had lower ash contents (1.36-7.79%) but higher volatile matter (72.33-80.04%), and the reverse was true in animal waste. In addition, animal waste, except eggshells (22.48%), had lower fixed carbon (1.01-2.83%). On the other hand, fruit waste was documented with higher fixed carbon (11.33-14.27%). Results also indicated that animal waste and their combined samples, except eggshells, contained more nitrogen (3.82-5.06%). The concentration of P was statistically significant in the combined fruit sample (28.21% +/- 8.451), followed by banana peels (24.96% +/- 11.644). Vegetable waste contained a significantly higher amount of K (24.90% +/- 28.311-37.92% +/- 24.833) than other waste. Maximum Ca (68.82% +/- 10.778) and Mg (15.37% +/- 29.88) were recorded in eggshell and fish bone waste, respectively. Except for Zn and Mn in eggshells, the waste studied contained a significant amount of micronutrients. FTIR demonstrated the presence of different functional groups such as alcoholic group (OH), aliphatic chain (C-H), aromatic chain (C-H), alkyl aryl ether (C-O), carbonyl group (C=O), alkene (C=C), thiocyanate (S-CN), isothiocyanate (N=C=S), allene (C=C=C), sulphate (S=O), amine (N-H), and NO stretching band, which varied with the waste used. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that plant waste degraded more quickly than animal waste. Eggshells were found to be less degradable by increased temperature, followed by cow bones > fish bones > chicken bones. The waste material used in the study was slightly acidic (6.67-6.82) in nature. Correlation analysis of the nutrients showed mainly positive relations in all samples for macro and micronutrients. Therefore, non-edible food waste can be a possible source of plant nutrients.

  Polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers (TPE-Os) are high-performance polyolefins consisting of both plastic and rubber phases. Compared with other thermoplastic elastomers, the TPE-Os possess better chemical stability, transparency, re-processability, and electrical insulation, which renders their broad applications possible. By manipulating chain structures and topologies of the TPE-Os, differently structured polyolefins with improved thermal and mechanical properties have been developed, including ethylene and alpha-olefin random copolymers (POEs), olefin block copolymers (OBCs), comb-shaped polyolefin elastomers (CPOEs), and dynamically cross-linked polyolefin elastomers. Herein, we review the synthesis of the POE, OBC, CPOE, and dynamical cross-linked polyolefin elastomer, including the catalyst systems, polymerization techniques, processes, and kinetic modelling. The characterization of the TPE-Os and the relationships between the TPE-O chain structure, aggregated state, and product performance are discussed. The future development of higher-performance TPE-Os is envisaged.

  Mineral acids in the atmosphere breakdown on the action of oxygen and release acid gases into atmosphere causing acid rain, which can chemically weather materials. We hypothesized that the chemical weathering caused by these mineral acids may also influence the rate of degradation or cracking of MPs in the environment. However, studies focusing on the chemical weathering process of mineral acids in the environment on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is not available in literature. In the present work, PET microplastics (MPs) (1000 mu m) were artificially degraded by acids such as hydrochloric acid (HA), nitric acid (NA) and sulphuric acid (SA) under the effect of contact time (30, 60, 120, 720 and 1440 min), temperature (10, 25, 40, 70,100 and 130 degrees C), and shaking speed (100, 150, 200 and 250 rpm). Degradation was monitored by weight loss, Variable Pressure Scanning Electron Microscope (VP-SEM) and Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier-Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) and optimized by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Results showed that the weight loss were slow but increased with increasing contact time, temperature and shaking speed. For all three acids, the PET MPs spectra peak loss was similar for the different effects. However, the speed of degradation based on the ATR-FTIR and weight loss results followed temperature > shaking speed > contact time. The surface interactions between the PET MPs and acids were investigated using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and Density functional theory (DFT) Studies. Overall, ATR-FTIR analysis and DFT studies suggested that the breakdown took place through the parts of the PET MPs structure containing oxygen atoms (-OH, C=O) and the aromatic ring. However, optimization results from RSM showed optimal weight loss of 33%, 30% and 22% for HA, SA and NA respectively. Therefore, these acids can be employed in PET MPs degradation and higher rate of degradation will require longer time, high temperature and shaking speeds.

  Embedding the capability of self-sensing to polymeric materials pro-vides tremendous opportunities for developing smart materials with highly important applications. However, a facile method that can introduce this capability to different polymers beyond strain sensing remains elusive. Here, we report a strategy of incorporating a continuous graphene sheet as an electric probe into polymer matrices for developing self-sensing composites. The resulted com-posite demonstrates impressively high conductivities of 290 S/m at a graphene volume fraction (VG) of 0.00068, a good electrical recov-ery at a cyclic elastic strain of 30% and a strain-sensing upper limit of 80%. Moreover, the glass transition, melting, and photodegrada-tion process of different polymers can also be monitored in situ, and the corresponding glass transition temperature (Tg) and melting point (Tm) can be calculated. Our work paves the way for the devel-opment and application of novel self-sensing polymer composites with high sensitivity and versatility based on two-dimensional (2D) materials.

  Molecular docking, molecular dynamics modelling, and fractional factorial design methodologies were used in the current work to examine the harmful effects of ten microplastic (MPs) such as polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl-chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyamide (PA), polyethylene tere-phthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polychloropene (PCP) and polycarbonate (PC) on the aquatic organism (zebrafish). The toxicity was evaluated based on the docking of the MPs on cytochrome P450 (CYP P450) protein crystals. The binding affinities (Delta G) followed the order, PC (-6.9 kcal/mol) > PET (-6.1 kcal/mol) > PP (-5.8 kcal/mol) > PA (-5.6 kcal/mol) > PS (-5.1 kcal/mol) > PU (-4.1 kcal/mol) > PMMA (-3.9 kcal/mol) > PCP (-3.3 kcal/mol) > PVC (-2.4 kcal/mol) > PE (-2.1 kcal/mol). The primary driving factors for the binding of the MPs and the protein were hydrophobic force, and hydrogen bonding based on the molecular dynamics analysis and surrounding amino acid residues. Furthermore, a 210-5 fractional factorial design method was estimated to identify the main effect and second-order effects of MPs in a composite contamination system on binding affinity/energy to CYP450 receptor protein of zebrafish, combined with a fixed effects model. The findings showed that different MPs combinations had varying impacts on aquatic toxicity; as a consequence, the best combination of MPs with the lowest aquatic toxicity effect could be excluded. The factorial designs showed that the PU-PS and PP-PA combination and single PCP, has the most significant main effect on CYP450 receptor protein of zebrafish which translates to an optimum toxicity level of-4.61 kcal/mol. The investigation offers a theoretical foundation for identifying the hazardous impacts of MPs on aquatic life.

  PROCESSES, 巻：10, 号：12, 2022年12月
  The assessment of toxic metals pollution in road dust in Mymensingh city, Bangladesh and its impact on the health risk of human exposure to toxic metals, is inadequate. A comprehensive investigation was conducted in different land use areas, i.e., commercial areas (CA), medically facilitated areas (MFA), residential areas (RA), and park areas (PA), to determine levels of Cr (chromium), Mn (manganese), Ni (nickel), Co (cobalt), Cu (copper), Zn (zinc), As (arsenic), Cd (cadmium), and Pb (lead) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS). We planned to use different pollution indices, such as the geoaccumulation index (I-geo), contamination factor (CF), degree of contamination (C-deg), ecological risk (Er), pollution load index (PLI), and enrichment factor (EF), to measure the level of contamination in the road dust of Mymensingh City. The average concentration (mg/kg) ranges of toxic metals in the road dust at different land use areas of Mymensingh City were: Cr (40.8-85.5), Mn (370.7-589.2), Co (6.2-8.7), Ni (22.7-34.2), Cu (29.5-72.2), Zn (236.2-467.1), As (4.9-6.29), Cd (0.32-1.07), and Pb (27.4-81.7), respectively. The CF and PLI results showed that the road dust in these zones was contaminated with toxic metals. The indicator I-geo revealed that CA was found to be 'moderately to heavily contaminated' ranked with Zn and Cd. Calculation of EF indicated that Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb were highly enriched, while others were moderately enriched. According to the C-deg findings, CA, MFA, and RA have very high degrees of contamination (C-deg >= 24), while PA was classified as having a considerable degree of contamination (12 <= C-deg < 24). The Er index showed that only Cd posed a 'medium potential ecological risk' to a 'high ecological potential risk' in road dust. The most common route of exposure was ingestion. The study indicated that the hazard quotient (HQ) and hazard index (HI) in CA, MFA, RA, and PA were less than one for children and adults, which were at a noncarcinogenic risk. The only exception was for children exposed to manganese (HI > 1) in all land use areas. In the research area, no significant carcinogenic health risk was observed for Cr, Ni, As, Cd, and Pb.

  The average/tail Flow Completion Times (FCTs) are critical to many datacenter applications. Congestion control plays a central role in optimizing FCT. Inappropriate congestion control can exacerbate buffer occupancy, thus hurting the flow performance. Our observations are that current approaches are too aggressive in injecting packets into underlying networks. Instead of handling buffer explosion afterward, we reduce buffer occupancy in the first place. We propose PayDebt, a novel and readily-deployable proactive congestion control protocol. At its heart, a debt mechanism provides bandwidth coordination between the already-buffered and the forthcoming packets. We evaluate PayDebt both in a testbed and large-scale simulations. The buffer occupancy can be decreased by up to 8.0x-35.9x compared to DCQCN and Homa.

  The COVID-19 period has had a significant impact on both the global environment and daily living. The COVID-19 lockdown may provide an opportunity to enhance environmental quality. This study has evaluated the effect of the COVID-19 lockdown on the distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the street dust (diameter < 20 mu m) of different land use areas in Dhaka city, Bangladesh, using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The maximum (2114 ng g(-1)) concentration of n-ary sumation 16 PAHs was found in the industrial area during without lockdown conditions and the minimum (932 ng g(-1)) concentration was found in the public facilities area during the complete lockdown. Meanwhile, due to the partial lockdown, a maximum of 30% of the n-ary sumation 16 PAH concentration decreased from the situation of without lockdown in the industrial area. The highest result of 53% of the n-ary sumation 16 PAH concentration decreased from the situation without lockdown to the complete lockdown in the commercial area. The 4-ring PAHs had the highest contribution, both during and after the lockdown conditions. PAH ratios, correlation, principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) were applied in order to evaluate the possible sources. Two major origins of PAHs in the street dust were identified as petroleum and petrogenic sources, as well as biomass and coal combustion. Ingestion and dermal pathways were identified as the major exposure routes to PAHs in the dust. The total incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) due to exposure for adults and children ranged from 8.38 x 10(-8) to 1.16 x 10(-7) and from 5.11 x 10(-8) to 1.70 x 10(-7), respectively. These values were lower than the baseline value of acceptable risk (10(-6)), indicating no potential carcinogenic risk. This study found that the COVID-19 lockdown reduced the distribution of PAHs in the different sites of Dhaka city, thus providing a unique opportunity for the remarkable improvement of degraded environmental resources.

  Urban street dust is regarded as a significant pollutant in the urban environment and an ideal indicator of urban environmental quality. Even so, studies regarding this matrix for microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) pollution are often overlooked and only a few studies have been conducted to date. MPs and NPs are ubiquitous in nature and of current concern to scientists, governmental and non-governmental organisation. A key issue in understanding the fate and potential effects of MPs and NPs is their dynamic nature, as the size, shape, and charge of the particles change overtime. Reviewed studies suggested that they are present in significant quantities in deposited street dust comprised mainly of PES (Polyester), PP (Polypropylene), PE (Polyethylene), TRWP (Tire and road wear particles) and the concentrations are influenced by anthropogenic activities. These studies therefore suggest dusts as a significant exposure route of human and ecosystem to MPs and NPs. The present review provided a comprehensive overview of current knowledge or information including analytical procedure regarding MPs and NPs in road deposited street dust, identifying gaps in knowledge, and giving suggestions for future research. The significance of this review is that, dusts particles can be easily ingested by humans through inhalation or contact and humans may simultaneously ingest MPs and NPs. Therefore, understanding the dynamics of their sources, pathways, and reservoirs is very important particularly for scientist studying the occurrence and fate of MPs and NPs in ecosystems as well as the general public.

  BackgroundThis study aimed to observe the prognosis of patients with moderate-to-severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) as a function of underlying conditions and available treatment strategies, and to investigate the risk factors for death and the outcomes of different clinical subphenotypes. MethodsPatients were divided into non-survivors and survivors according to the prognosis 28 days after the diagnosis. The risk factors for death and the predictive value of relevant factors for mortality were analyzed. Latent class analysis was used to identify different clinical subphenotypes. ResultsA total of 213 patients with moderate-to-severe PARDS were enrolled, of which 98 (46.0%) died. Higher PELOD2 scores (OR = 1.082, 95% CI 1.004-1.166, p < 0.05), greater organ failure (OR = 1.617, 95% CI 1.130-2.313, p < 0.05), sepsis (OR = 4.234, 95% CI 1.773-10.111, p < 0.05), any comorbidity (OR = 3.437, 95% CI 1.489-7.936, p < 0.05), and higher infiltration area grade (IAG) (OR = 1.980, 95% CI 1.028-3.813, p < 0.05) were associated with higher mortality. The combination of these five indicators had the largest area under the curve (sensitivity 89.79%, specificity 94.78%). Patients were classified into higher-risk and lower-risk phenotype group according to the latent class analysis. Compared to the lower-risk phenotype, more patients with higher-risk phenotype suffered from sepsis (24.40% vs. 12.20%, p < 0.05), inherited metabolic diseases (45.80% vs. 25.60%, p < 0.05), positive respiratory pathogens (48.10% vs. 26.80%, p < 0.05), and higher IAG (p < 0.05); they also had significantly higher PIM3 and PELOD2 scores (p < 0.05), with an extremely high mortality rate (61.1% vs. 22.0%, p < 0.05). ConclusionsModerate-to-severe PARDS has high morbidity and mortality in PICU; a higher PELOD2 score, greater organ failure, sepsis, any comorbidity, and higher IAG were risk factors for death, and the combination of these five indicators had the greatest value in predicting prognosis. More patients with sepsis, positive respiratory pathogens, higher PIM3 and PELOD2 scores, and higher IAG were in higher-risk phenotype group, which had worse outcomes. Clear classification facilitates targeted treatment and prognosis determination.

  Through in silico screening, this study seeks to demonstrate a connection between ethnopharmacological claims and the bioactive components found in Garri against potential targets for diabetes. The process of molecular docking involving different bonding modes of compounds in Garri with active cavities of target receptors for proteins human pancreatic alpha-amylase (HPA) and human lysosomal acid-alpha-glucosidase (GAA) was carried out in autodock vina. Density functional theory was used for quantum chemical analysis, while ADME/T properties of the top binding compounds were predicted using the Admetsar and Swissadme database. From the results, (20E)-6-hydroxycholesta-9(11),20(22)-diene-3,23-dione, 25-dedhydrotigogenin, cochlioquinone B, and psi-diosgenin, showed the best docking results (> -8.1 to -9.8 kcal/mol), when compared with the standard control drugs acarbose (-7.9 kcal/mol) and 1-deoxynojirimycin (< -5.1 kcal/mol). The results from the ADME/T prediction also revealed that the compounds had good pharmacokinetic properties. The study provided insights into the development of better inhibitors to treat diabetes from garri.

  Microplastics (MPs) and phenolics are pollutants found ubiquitously in freshwater systems. MPs oftentimes serve as a vector for pollutants across ecosystems and are now being explored as alternative adsorbents for pollutant removal. This strategy would reflect the 'reuse' of an existing waste stream into a potentially useful product while at the same time helping to minimize plastic waste in the marine environment. In this study, the adsorption of phenol onto pristine (Pr-PET), modified (Mod-PET), and aged (Ag-PET) Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) microplastics was examined experimentally and theoretically. Kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics models were used to investigate the adsorption process while Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were employed to investigate molecular level alterations. The result showed that the Ag-PET MPs had the best removal efficiency due larger surface area and the adsorption occurred in a pseudo-second-order manner, showing that the rate of phenol adsorption is directly proportional to the number of surface-active sites on the surface of PET MPs while the intraparticle diffusion defined rate-limiting step. However, the maximum monolayer adsorption capacity followed Mod-PET (38.02 mg/g) > Ag-PET (8.08 mg/g) > Pr-PET (6.84 mg/g). The adsorption process proceeded spontaneously and thermodynamically favourable. GCMC-MD simulations revealed that PET MPs are capable of successfully adsorbing the phenol molecule through Van der Waals and electrostatic interactions and can be adopted as novel adsorbents for phenol removal in aqueous solutions.

  Polymer reaction engineering studies the design, operation, and optimization of reactors for industrial scale polymerization, based on the theory of polymerization kinetics and transfer processes (e.g., flow, heat and mass transfer). Although the foundation and development of this discipline are less than 80 years, the global production of polymers has exceeded 400 million tons per annum. It demonstrates that polymer reaction engineering is of vital importance to the polymer industry. Along with the maturity of production processes and market saturation for bulk polymers, emerging industries such as information technology, modern transportation, biomedicine, and new energy have continued to develop. As a result, the research objective for polymer reaction engineering has gradually shifted from maximizing the efficiency of the polymerization process to the precise regulation of high-end product-oriented macromolecules and their aggregation structures, i.e., from polymer process engineering to polymer product engineering. In this review, the frontiers of polymer reaction engineering are introduced, including the precise regulation of polymer chain structure, the control of primary aggregation structure, and the rational design of polymer products. We narrow down the topic to the polymerization reaction engineering of vinyl monomers. Moreover, the future prospects are provided for the field of polymer reaction engineering.@2022 The Chemical Industry and Engineering Society of China, and Chemical Industry Press Co., Ltd.

  Allergenic pollen protein can be released from pollen grains and suspended in the air to cause allergenic reactions. However, the allergenic protein and its relationship with redox trace elements in ambient size-resolved particles has not been reported. Ambient size-resolved particles in Shanghai's atmosphere were sampled during the Platanus pollen season in the spring season of 2017. Planatus pollen protein 3 (Pla a3) and redox trace elements in the ambient particles were investigated and their relationship was analyzed. Our data demonstrated that the mass level of the Pla a3 in the size-resolved particles ranged from 0.41 +/- 0.28 to 7.46 +/- 2.23 pg/m(3), and decreased with the size range. Mass concentrations (ppb) of crustal elements (Fe, Al, Ca, Mg, Na) in the size-resolved particles ranged from 20.11 +/- 9.87 to 1126.22 +/- 659.51, while trace elements (V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Cd, Cs, Ba, Pb) varied from 0.05 +/- 0.03 to 57.53 +/- 19.7. Mass levels of these trace elements decreased according to particle size. The Abundance of redox trace elements, including Fe (R-2 = 0.82), Mn (R-2 = 0.54), Cu (R-2 = 0.61), Ba (R-2 = 0.82), and Pb (R-2 = 0.82) in the size-resolved particles was significantly related to that of Pla a3, and our data implied redox trace elements might take syngenetic effects on the allergenicity induced by Pla a3 protein.

  PROCESSES, 巻：10, 号：9, 2022年09月
  Biomass waste from harvestable output is produced in significant quantities by agricultural and forestry processes and can have detrimental effects on the ecosystem. Therefore, biomass derived from the waste in the environment has been recognized as a potential source for preparing functional materials in recent years. In this study, activated carbon (ACs) was fabricated and characterized from Phyllostachys edulis (Moso bamboo) using single-step potassium hydroxide (KOH) activation at different temperatures (500 degrees C to 1000 degrees C). The prepared ACs were characterized for surface morphology, surface area, functional groups and crystallinity using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The SEM revealed well-formed pores on the surface of all ACs, while BET analysis revealed the presence of microporous (<= 800 degrees C) and mesoporous (>800 degrees C) structures. SBET surface area and total pore volume increased with increasing activation temperature, from 434 to 1790 m(2)/g and 0.2089 to 0.8801 cm(3)/g, reaching a maximum at 900 degrees C. FTIR revealed the presence of carbonyl and hydroxyl groups on the surface. XRD showed a dominant amorphous structure and a low crystallization degree in all ACs.

  House dust mite (HDM) is a globally ubiquitous domestic cause of allergic diseases. There is a pressing demand to discover efficient, harmless, and eco-friendly natural extracts to inhibit HDM allergens that are more likely to trigger allergies and challenging to be prevented entirely. This study, therefore, is aimed at assessing the inhibition of the allergenicity of major HDM allergen Der f 2 by todomatsu oil extracted from residues of Abies Sachalinensis. The inhibition was investigated experimentally (using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE)) and in silico using molecular docking. The results showed that todomatsu oil inhibits the allergenicity of Der f 2 by reducing its amount instead of the IgG binding capacity of a single protein. Moreover, the compounds in todomatsu oil bind to Der f 2 via alkyl hydrophobic interactions. Notably, most compounds interact with the hydrophobic amino acids of Der f 2, and seven substances interact with CYS27. Contrarily, the principal compounds fail to attach to the amino acids forming the IgG epitope in Der f 2. Interestingly, chemical components with the lowest relative percentages in todomatsu oil show high-affinity values on Der f 2, especially beta-maaliene (-8.0 kcal/mol). In conclusion, todomatsu oil has been proven in vitro as a potential effective public health strategy to inhibit the allergenicity of Der f 2.

  The highest incidence and mortality rate of lung cancer in rural area of Fuyuan has been a research hotspot, and the pathogenesis is still unclear. Therefore, atmospheric particulate matters (APMs) samples were collected between 18 February and 01 March 2017, exploring water-soluble potentially toxic metals (WSPTMs) and water-soluble inorganic ionic species (WSIIs) levels, size distribution, sources, acidity and alkalinity, and potential carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks, hoping to provide scientific basic data to solve this problem. In our study, the average ratio of nitrate ion (NO3-)/sulfate ion (SO42-) within PM1.1, PM1.1-2.0, PM2.0-3.3, PM3.3-7.0, and PM>7.0 were 0.22, 0.18, 0.15, 0.34 and 0.36, respectively, that revealed that combustion sources contributed to PM were more significant. The anions in equilibrium (ANE) / cations in equilibrium (CAE) < 1 for all samples within PM1.1, PM2.0-3.3, PM3.3-7.0 indicate that the APMs were alkaline, but PM1.1-2.0 particulate matter shows weak acidity. SO42- prefers to combine with NH4+ to form (NH4)(2)SO4, which hinders the formation of NH4NO3, the remaining SO42- and NO3- to neutralize the K+, KNO3 was formed at all particulate, however, K2SO4 can only be formed in PM<3.3. Arsenic (As) and Selenium (Se) were identified as the most enriched WSPTMs in all PM sizes, predominantly from anthropogenic emissions, were suggested that coal combustion is a significant source of PM-bound WSPTMs. Total WSPTMs exhibited high total carcinogenic risks (TCR) values (9.98 x 10(-6), 1.06 x 10(-5), and 1.19 x 10(-5) for girls, boys and adults, respectively) in the smaller particles (< 1.1 mu m). Se was considered as the major contributor (63.60%) to carcinogenic risk (CR) in PM2.0 and had an inverse relationship with PM size that should be of prime concern.

  Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bangladesh government took the measure like partial lockdown (PL) and complete lockdown (CL) to curb the spread. These measures gave a chance for environmental restoration. In this study, street dust samples were collected during PL and CL from four main urban land use categories in Dhaka city, such as industrial area (IA), commercial area (CA), public facilities area (PFA), and residential area (RA). Ten potentially toxic elements (Cr, Mn, Zn, Fe, Pb, Cu, Co, Ni, As, and Cd) in fine street dust particles (diameter < 20 mu m) were determined following aqua-regia digestion and measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to evaluate distribution, pollution sources, and potential risks to ecological systems and human health. Results showed that during PL, the concentrations of toxic elements in the dust were higher than that of CL. Cd and Fe were lowest and highest in concentration with 1.56 to 41,970 mu g/g and 0.82 to 39,330 mu g/g in partial and complete lockdown period respectively. All toxic elements were detected at high levels above background values where Fe with the highest and Cd with lowest concentrations, respectively. By land use, the levels of toxic elements pollution followed IA > PFA > RA > CA. Correlation analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchal cluster analysis (HCA) revealed that the sources of these analyzed toxic elements were mainly from anthropogenic which are related to industrial and vehicular or traffic emissions. Enrichment factor (EF), geoaccumulation index (I-geo), contamination factor (CF), and pollution load index (PLI) also suggested that the dust was more polluted during PL. Exposure of toxic elements to human was mainly via skin contact followed by ingestion and inhalation. Hazard quotient (HQ) values were < 1 except for Mn through dermal contact at all sites during partial and complete lockdown, similar to hazard index (HI), while Cr further showed high non-carcinogenic risks to children. Generally, children HI values were about 5-6 times higher than those of adults, suggesting a greater vulnerability of children to the health concerns caused by toxic elements in street dust. Carcinogenic risk (CR) values via ingestion pathway indicated all elements (except Pb) had significant health effect, while CR value by inhalation results showed no significant health effect. Cumulative carcinogenic risk (CCR) value had significant health effect except Pb in all land use categories. CCR values decreased during CL and reached at acceptable limit for most of the cases. This research provides a message to the local governments and environmental authorities to have a complete assessment of toxic elements in the street dust of Dhaka megacity in order to assuring public health safety and ecological sustainability.

• Submesoscale processes-induced vertical heat transport modulated by oceanic mesoscale eddies

  DEEP-SEA RESEARCH PART II-TOPICAL STUDIES IN OCEANOGRAPHY, 巻：202, 2022年08月
  Oceanic submesoscale processes mainly arise from phenomena such as jets, density fronts, and mesoscale eddies. Previous studies suggest that the overall submesoscale processes transport heat vertically upgradient, i.e. from cold to warm. However, it is not clear whether the submesoscale processes-induced vertical heat transport (VHT) in mesoscale eddies remains upgradient. Therefore, the present study focuses on submesoscale-induced VHT modulated by mesoscale eddies. A high-resolution oceanic numerical model product is applied to examine the VHT induced by submesoscale processes associated with a pair of cyclonic and anticyclonic mesoscale eddies in the Kuroshio Extension (KE) region. Eddies at different time steps are collocated in terms of the eddy centers to reconstruct a time series of a new eddy dataset that presents eddy-modulated submesoscale processes. The frequency-wavenumber spectra, Rossby numbers, and strain rates in the pair of eddies reveal the existence of submesoscale motions surrounding mesoscale eddies. The variables are decomposed into monthly mean meso-scale and submesoscale components to calculate submesoscale VHT at low-frequency (LF) and high-frequency (HF). The results indicate that submesoscale VHT is modulated by mesoscale eddies mainly along the eddy boundaries. The LF submesoscale VHT (upward in both cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies) dominates the monthly-averaged submesoscale VHT. The magnitude of the hourly HF submesoscale VHT is larger than the LF component, while its monthly average becomes negligible because it is caused by periodical internal waves. The submesoscale VHT along the eddy edges is related to strong frontogenesis which develops the vertical flux.

  As a member of the curcuminoid compound family, curcumin (Cur) has many interesting therapeutic properties. However, its low aqueous solubility and stability have resulted in poor bioavailability and restricted clinical efficacy. Based on size matching, beta-cyclodextrin polymer (beta-CDP), with its hydrophilic polymer chains and hydrophobic cavities, can form an inclusion complex with Cur. To improve the water solubility and stability of Cur, a simple and eco-friendly grinding method was designed to form beta-CDP inclusion complexes. According to the Boltzmann-Hamel's method and Job's method, the molar ratio of the beta-CD unit in beta-CDP to Cur was determined to be 1:1. The diffusion coefficient and diffusion activation energy of Cur-beta-CDP were calculated in an electrochemical study. This supramolecular complex worked well in vitro to inhibit the proliferation of hepatoma carcinoma cells HepG2. Remarkably, this method visibly reduced the undesirable side effects on normal cells, without weakening the anti-cancer activity of the drugs. We expect that the obtained host-guest complex will provide a new approach for delivering natural drug molecules, having low water solubility.

  APPLIED CATALYSIS A-GENERAL, 巻：643, 2022年08月
  Low-temperature selective catalytic reduction with NH3 (LT-SCR) is a promising approach for NOx remediation. This work utilized bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to prepare CeMOx (M=Ti, Cu) catalysts allowing the homogeneous distribution of promoters to investigate LT-SCR explicitly. The strong interfacial interaction between nanoscale-mixed components was characterized on CeTiOx by HRTEM, micro-Raman, and XPS, resulting in high acidity and good redox properties with abundant Ce3+ and Ti4+. It obtained over 80% conversion from 180 degrees C to 300 degrees C with 100% N2 selectivity, and maintained stable performance in SO2/H2O at a high GHSV of 150,000 h-1. In situ DRIFTS reveals that NH3 adsorption was promoted on CeTiOx, which accelerated reaction between NOx and adsorbed NH3 via Eley-Rideal mechanism. Meanwhile, the aliovalent substitution of ceria by Cu2+ was observed on CeCuOx, forming oxygen vacancies. Its high redox properties enhanced NOx conversion by Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, but triggered NH3 peroxidation, leading to poor N2 selectivity.

• Adsorption of ciprofloxacin from aqueous solution by plastic-based adsorbents: a review　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  Christian Ebere Enyoh; Qingyue Wang
  INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, 2022年07月
  Plastics and antibiotics are two classes of emerging contaminants with proposed negative impacts on aqueous ecosystems. In this paper, the adsorption of Ciprofloxacin (CIP) from water in studies using plastic-based adsorbents over the last half-decade was reviewed. The objectives of this review were to 1) review the procedures in the development of plastic-based material for CIP removal; 2) review the experimental designs adopted for CIP removal by plastic-based material; 3) summarise the factors affecting the CIP adsorption behaviour of plastic-based material; 4) explore the primary mechanism by which plastic-based material adsorb CIP; 5) evaluate the reusability of the plastic-based materials and 6) identify deficiencies in existing research on the adsorption of CIP by plastic-based materials and give suggestions for further study. We observed that mainly four categories of materials have been used including native plastic-based adsorbents, chemically modified plastic-based adsorbents, high-energy physical treated plastic-based adsorbents, and plastic-based composite adsorbents. The highest removal rate was recorded for the composite (99.1%). Experimental designs are mainly batch while columns have been scantly used. Changes in the pH, contact time, initial concentration, temperature, and ionic strength also affect the adsorption capacity. The most common mechanism by which CIP was adsorbed is hydrogen bonding. Additionally, electrostatic interaction and other non-covalent forces, such as polar-polar interaction, halogen bonds, and pi-pi interactions, are also mechanisms. The majority of current research on plastic-based material adsorption behaviour is done in labs, with little in-depth investigations of the adsorption process and affecting variables. As a result, further research on the adsorption behaviour of plastic-based materials in the environment is needed, which will help to fill that gap.

  INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, 2022年05月
  Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) and microplastics (MPs) removal is one of the main technical measures in these emerging pollutant control and MPs can sorb PFAS acting as carriers. In order to explore the sorption process of polyethylene (PE MPs) for different PFAS, Grand Canonical Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulation was used. Seven commonly found PFAS compounds including PFNA (Perfluorononanoic acid), PFHxS (Perfluorohexanesulphonic acid), PFHxA (Perfluorohexanoic acid), PFDA (Perfluorodecanoic acid), PFOS (Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid), PFBS (Perfluorobutanesulfonic acid) and Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) were selected. The sorption on PE MPs was based on fixed loading and the sorption (PE MPs+PFAS) average total energy for all simulation steps followed PFHxA (-29.17 kcal/mol) < PFBS (-52.71 kcal/mol) < PFOA (-57.12 kcal/mol) < PFNA (-70.58 kcal/mol) < PFDA (-78.27 kcal/mol) < PFHxS (-80.06 kcal/mol) < PFOS (-102.30 kcal/mol). However, the binding/interaction energies followed PFHxS > PFOS > PFNA > PFDA > PFOA > PFBS > PFHxA. The MD simulation was carried out under NVT ensemble at 298 K, the thermodynamic states and relaxation pretreatment procedures were then examined quantitatively by radial distribution function, X-ray scattering, relative concentration profile, mean square displacement and space time correlation function. The results show that effective sorption of PFAS molecule by PE MPs involves hydrogen or chemical bonding as well non-bond energy such as Van der Waals (VdW), electrostatic and intramolecular energies. The cell volume did not change during single and multicomponent sorption while the sorption density increased about threefold the single component (0.36 g/cm(3)), suggesting that as the pollutant number increased the sorption capacity increased. This study showed that PE MPs can used for single and multicomponent sorption of PFASs effectively and also provided theoretical support for our knowledge of the sorption mechanism at the molecular level, which will help in better understanding of PFAS removal by MPs.

  Spatial variations in the bioaccessibility and health risks induced by chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) in roadside dust from different land-use areas, i.e., commercial areas (CA), planned residential areas (PRA), spontaneous residential areas (SRA) and urban green areas (UGA) in Dhaka city, Bangladesh, were investigated. An in vitro simple bioaccessibility extraction test (SBET) method, which allows the simulation of the gastric (GP) and intestinal phases (IP) of human digestion, was applied to evaluate bioaccessibility and human health risk, assessed using United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) modelling. The average bioaccessible concentration of Zn was the highest in both the gastric (74.4-244.5 mu g/g) and intestinal phases (74.4-244.5 mu g/g) in all the land-use areas except UGA. The bioaccessibility percentages of Co and Cu in the IP phase and As in the GP phase were >40% for all the land-use categories. Carcinogenic (Cr, Ni, As and Pb) and non-carcinogenic human health risks were evaluated for the ingestion pathway, in both children and adults. The results suggest that there were no non-carcinogenic risks for adults and children exposed to roadside dust toxic metals, but the risk levels of roadside dust toxic metals in some sampling areas were high. The carcinogenic risks of Cr in SRA (for children) and Ni in CA (for both adults and children), PRA (for children) and UGA (for children) were found to be within a tolerable range of 10(-6) to 10(-4).

  Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, large-scale industrial production has been stagnant and reduced, the urban air quality has been greatly improved. It provided an excellent opportunity to explore the effects of air pollutants on the sensitization of pollen allergen proteins in the environment. Platanus pollen grains sampled in the spring of 2019 and 2020 were used for detailed characterization and analysis. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray spectroscopy (XPS), trypan blue staining, and western blot analysis were employed to characterize Platanus pollen protein released from pollen grains. Our data showed that the viability of the pollen grains in 2019 was lower compared that in 2020, and the pollen grains collected in 2019 had a higher absorption peak of protein functional groups. The XPS spectra assay result demonstrated that the binding energy of the high-resolution components had not variation on the surface of pollen grains, but relative content of nitrogen and peptide chain in the pollen grains sampled in 2019 were higher than in 2020. These results suggested that more protein in the pollen grains was released onto the surface of pollen grains. In addition, western blot assay showed that the expression of Pla a3 protein in pollen grains sampled in 2019 was significantly higher than that in 2020, revealing that air pollutants could enhance the expression of Pla a3 proteins in Platanus pollen.

  BackgroundProlonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) has become an enormous challenge in intensive care units (ICUs) around the world. Patients treated with PMV are generally in poor health. These patients represent a select cohort with significant morbidity, mortality, and resource utilization. The status of children who have undergone PMV in China is unknown. Our goal is to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of pediatric patients with PMV, as well as the risk factors of PMV in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). MethodsThe subjects were divided into two groups. The PMV group(MV >= 14 days) and the non-PMV group(2 days < MV <14 days). The baseline characteristics, treatments, mortality and other results between the two groups were compared. The risk factors associated with PMV were evaluated using univariate and multivariable analyses. ResultsOf the 382 children enrolled, 127 (33.2%) received prolonged mechanical ventilation. The most common cause of MV in the PMV group was acute lung disease (48.0%), followed by acute circulatory system disease (26.0%), acute neurological disease (15.0%), postoperative monitoring (10.2%), and others (0.8%). Comorbidities were more prevalent among the PMV group (P = 0.004). The patients with PMV had a higher rate of premature birth (24.4 vs. 14.1%, P = 0.013) and higher PIM3 score at admission [5.6(3.0-9.9) vs. 4.1(1.7-5.5), P < 0.001]. The use of inotropes/vasopressors (63.8 vs. 43.1%, P < 0.001) was more common in patients with PMV compared with those in the non-PMV group. In the PMV group, the rate of extubation failure (39.4 vs. 6.7%, P < 0.001) was higher than the non-PMV group. The median hospital stay [35(23.0-50.0)d vs. 20(14.0-31.0)d, P < 0.001], PICU stay [22(15.0-33.0)d vs. 9(6.0-12.0)d, P < 0.001], hospitalization costs [ yen 391,925(263,259-614,471) vs. yen 239,497(158,723-350,620), P < 0.001], and mortality after 1-month discharge (22.0 vs. 1.6%, P < 0.001) were higher in the PMV group. Multivariate analysis revealed that age <1 year old, a higher PIM3 score at admission, prematurity, the use of inotropes or vasopressors, extubation failure, and ventilator mode on the first day of MV were associated with PMV. ConclusionsThe incidence and mortality of PMV in pediatric patients is surprisingly high. Premature infants or patients with severe disease or extubation failure are at higher risk of PMV. Patients with PMV exhibit a greater burden with regard to medical costs than those on non-PMV. It is important to establish specialized weaning units for mechanically ventilated patients with stable conditions.

  The definition of environmental indexes is one of the most widely used methods and methodologies for the study of exposure to polluting agents, and it is a highly helpful instrument for describing the quality of the environment in a simple and straightforward manner. In this study, index models were presented and described that can be used in evaluating the contamination, pollution and health risks of environmental micro (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) to ecosystems and humans. Index models such as plastic contamination factors (pCf) and pollution load index (pPLI), plastic-bioconcentration or accumulation factors (pBCf or pBAf), plastic-biota-sediment accumulation factor (pBSAf), biota accumulation load index (BALI), polymer risks indices (pRi), polymer ecological risks index (pERI) while plastic estimated daily intake (pEDI) and plastic carcinogenic risks (pCR) were described for oral, dermal and inhalation pathways. All index modeled were further described based on polymer types of MPs/NPs. The final value is represented by a quantity that measures a weighted combination of sub-indices and defined by an appropriate mathematical function. The central concept is to present an indicator that can describe, in a clear and concise manner, the level of MPs/NPs in the environment, thereby indicating where it would be necessary to intervene and where it would not in order to improve overall environmental conditions.

  Nanoplastics (NPs) are a rapidly developing subject that is relevant in environmental and food research, as well as in human toxicity, among other fields. NPs have recently been recognized as one of the least studied types of marine litter, but potentially one of the most hazardous. Several studies are now being reported on NPs in the environment including surface water and coast, snow, soil and in personal care products. However, the extent of contamination remains largely unknown due to fundamental challenges associated with isolation and analysis, and therefore, a methodological gap exists. This article summarizes the progress in environmental NPs analysis and makes a critical assessment of whether methods from nanoparticles analysis could be adopted to bridge the methodological gap. This review discussed the sample preparation and preconcentration protocol for NPs analysis and also examines the most appropriate approaches available at the moment, ranging from physical to chemical. This study also discusses the difficulties associated with improving existing methods and developing new ones. Although microscopical techniques are one of the most often used ways for imaging and thus quantification, they have the drawback of producing partial findings as they can be easily mixed up as biomolecules. At the moment, the combination of chemical analysis (i.e., spectroscopy) and newly developed alternative methods overcomes this limitation. In general, multiple analytical methods used in combination are likely to be needed to correctly detect and fully quantify NPs in environmental samples.

  CATALYSTS, 巻：11, 号：11, 2021年11月
  Metallic Pt sites are imperative in the CO oxidation reaction. Herein, we demonstrate the tuning of Pt sites by treating a Pt catalyst in various reductive atmospheres, influencing the catalyst activities in low-temperature CO oxidation. The H-2 pretreatment of Pt clusters at 200 & DEG;C decreases the T-50 from 208 & DEG;C to 183 & DEG;C in the 0.1 wt % Pt/TiO2 catalyst. The T-50 shows a remarkable improvement using a CO pretreatment, which decreases the T-50 further to 135 & DEG;C. A comprehensive characterization study reveals the integrated reasons behind this phenomenon: (i) the extent of PtO transition to metallic Pt sites, (ii) the ample surface active oxygen triggered by metallic Pt, (iii) the CO selectively adsorbs on metallic Pt sites which participate in low-temperature CO oxidation, and (iv) the formation of the unstable intermediate such as bicarbonate, contributes together to the enhanced activity of CO pretreated Pt/TiO2.

• New Approach Study on Dry Coal Cleaning System with Two-Stage Corona Electrostatic Processes for High-Sulfur Low-Grade Fine Coals

  PROCESSES, 巻：9, 号：11, 2021年11月
  Corona electrostatic separation can remove inorganic materials from coal, reduce coal ash content and sulfur content and improve coal quality, reduce air pollution caused by smoke dust, SOX, and COX. The performance of corona electrostatic separation technology in cleaning a middle ash medium-ash, high-sulfur coal was experimentally investigated. The electrode voltage, drum rotational speed, and feeding speed were tested, whereas other parameters were maintained constant during the experiment. The results indicate that the performance of this technology in cleaning medium-ash, high-sulfur coal can be improved by optimizing the process parameters. The results demonstrate that corona electrostatic separation is effective for the beneficiation of this grade coal. In addition, the efficiency of coal cleaning is significantly improved by adding the second stage beneficiation to clean the middlings out from the first stage beneficiation. In this study, the first stage of beneficiation recovered 38.00% (by weight) of clean coal (ash content below 20%), and the second stage recovered 48.58% (by weight) of clean coal, improving the overall separation efficiency from 0.69 to 1.74. Furthermore, the sulfur content was reduced from 4.71% (raw coal) to 3.53% (clean coal). Our result show that corona electrostatic separation can effectively reject inorganic sulfur from raw coal, and the two-stage separate is also very helpful for coal purification.

  The main objective of this study was to examine the chemical characteristics, possible sources, and health risks of fine particle-bound Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the Baoshan area of Shanghai. Here, ambient particles with five-size ranges were collected during the spring and late summer of 2017. The PAHs were determined by the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Our results showed that the average mass concentration of 13 species of PAHs in spring and in late summer was 4.83 (1.88 similar to 12.1) ng/m(3) and 4.27 (2.09 similar to 5.75) ng/m(3) in Total Suspended Particles (TSPs), respectively. The higher PAH ratios (PM1.1/TSPs) indicated that PAHs are mainly concentrated in PM1.1, especially in late summer. The values of BaA/(BaA+CHR) were under 0.50 and IcdP/(IcdP+BghiP) were in range from 0.20 to 0.50 for TSP and PM1.1, suggesting that petroleum combustion and diesel emissions could be considered as key sources of PAHs, which tend to be associated with PM1.1. Moreover, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in PM1.1 identified the main PH sources, which include stationary and diesel emissions. The air mass backward trajectories and wind direction analysis showed that air masses were mainly derived from marine sources across the local industry area in late summer. Individual Carcinogenic Risk Inhalation (ILCR) was over 10(-6) among the total six age groups in both of the sampling periods in TSPs, indicating the possible carcinogenic risk, especially for children and the young age group. Toxic PAHs belong to Heavy Molecular Weight (HMW) PAHs, especially Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP). Compared with PM1.1-2.0, the Combustion-Derived PAHs group (COMPAHs) and Carcinogenic PAHs (CANPAHs) were highly concentrated in PM1.1. Stationary sources, such as the developed steel industry, made a great contribution to the level of PAHs, especially in late summer.

  Environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs) were previously considered an unrecognized composition of air pollutants and might help explain the long-standing medical mystery of why non-smokers develop tobacco-related diseases such as lung cancer. However, there is no investigated on EPFRs in Xuanwei rural areas, especially in high prevalence of lung cancer areas. In this study, we selected six types of coal and three types of biomass in Xuanwei, then conducted simulated combustion, and six group of atmospheric particulate matters (APMs) to explore the content and particle size distribution pattern of EPFRs and a new health risk assessment method to evaluate the risk of EPFRs in PM for adults and children. Our results show that the contribution of EPFRs for biomass combustion, coal combustion and APMs were mainly distributed in the size range of < 1.1 mu m, which accounted for 76.15 & PLUSMN; 4.14%, 74.85 & PLUSMN; 10.76%, and 75.23 & PLUSMN; 8.18% of PM3.3. The mean g factors and & UDelta;Hp-p indicated that the EPFRs were mainly oxygen-centered radicals in PM in Xuanwei. The results suggest that the health risk of EPFRs is significantly increased when the particle size distribution of EPFRs is taken into account, and coal combustion particulate matter (174.70 & PLUSMN; 37.86 cigarettes for an adult, 66.39 & PLUSMN; 14.39 cigarettes per person per year for a child) is more hazardous to humans than biomass combustion particulate matter (69.41 & PLUSMN; 4.83 cigarettes for an adult, 26.37 & PLUSMN; 1.84 cigarettes per person per year for), followed by APMs (102.88 & PLUSMN; 39.99 cigarettes for an adult, 39.10 & PLUSMN;15.20 cigarettes per person per year for) in PM3.3. Our results provides a new perspective and evidence for revealing the reason for the high incidence of lung cancer in Xuanwei, China.

  PROCESSES, 巻：9, 号：10, 2021年10月
  Urban roadside dust samples from Dhaka City in Bangladesh were collected from a planned residential area (PRA), spontaneous residential area (SRA), commercial area (CA), and urban green area (UGA) in winter and summer to study how season and different urban land-use categories influence the concentrations of heavy metals (Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, and Pb) and different pollution indices. The dust samples were fractionated into mu m particles, extracted by acid digestion followed by estimation of heavy metals, using ICP-MS. Pollution indices were calculated from the metal concentrations, using standard protocols. The concentrations of heavy metals in roadside dust varied significantly (all p < 0.05), due to sampling seasons and the land-use category. Higher concentrations of heavy metals (Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb) were found in the dust sampled during the winter season than in the summer season, except for As and Co. The geo-accumulation index (Igeo) indicated that the commercial area was heavily contaminated with Cu and Zn during the winter season. The contamination factor (CF) was higher for Cu and Zn in the CA, PRA, and SRA of Dhaka City in winter than in the summer season. The enrichment factor (EF) suggested that Mn and Co were the least enriched metals, and significant enrichment was seen for Cu and Zn for all land-use categories, both in summer and winter. A moderate potential ecological risk for Cu was estimated in CA and PRA in the winter season.

  ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION, 巻：23, 2021年08月
  Plastic wastes are introduced into the environment inevitably and their exposure in the environment causes deterioration in its mechanical and physicochemical properties. This leads to the formation of plastic fragments, which are considered as micro and nano plastics when their size is <5 mm and < 10 nm. In recent years, plastic pollution has been reported in all kinds of environments worldwide and is considered a threat to the health of the ecosystem and humans. Besides, plastics serve as vectors for pollutants as they are capable of adsorbing and accumulating pollutants from seawater. However, this particular ability exposes the tendency of exploiting plastic waste as an adsorbent for removing pollutants from polluted water. Considering the problems caused by plastic waste to ecosystems, this concept is very interesting and attractive as a way to protect the environment by recycling or reusing plastic wastes as novel low-cost adsorbents. Meanwhile, studies have begun to exploit and understand the concept of using plastic waste as an adsorbent to remove diverse pollutants such as heavy and radioactive metals, persistent organic pollutants, dyes and oils from aqueous solutions as well as gases e.g volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H-2). This paper, therefore, provides an overview of studies, highlighting the process of adsorbent preparation, plastic/pollutant interaction mechanisms (including kinetic and isotherm models), and factors influencing the removal rates and desorption of pollutants and reusability of the plastic-based adsorbent. Diverse pollutants such as heavy and radioactive metals, persistent organic pollutants, dyes and oils from aqueous solutions as well as gases e.g volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H-2) have been removed by plastic based adsorbent with the modified ones showing higher removal capacity. Desorption and reusability studies have shown that the plastic based adsorbent is re-generable and stable for dyes and heavy metals (e.g. Pb2+) with high desorption rate (> 80 %) while for low (< 40 %) for phenathrene. Applying plastic waste is a novel potential way of pollutant removal from the environment and therefore a facile sustainable approach. However, the optimization of the method considering the factors affecting the removal rate as well as characterizing the plastic absorbents before and after pollutant adsorption should be conducted. This will help in understanding the possibility of using this concept for field applications. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  CuCeTiOx (CCT) catalyst is considered as a promising prospect attributable to their high activity for low-temperature CO oxidation. However, rapid deactivation when treating humid flue gas hindered their industrial exploitation. The hydroxide ion (OH-) dissociated from H2O, and carbonate intermediates derived from CO/CO2 deposited on the catalyst surface of CCT catalyst, inhibits the CO oxidation by surface oxygen on active sites. In this study, the detrimental effect caused by H2O and CO2 were evaluated, and the performance of CCT catalysts were investigated and compared using in situ DRIFTs study. Further, intentional doping on the CCT using transition metal (e.g., Co and Mn) was performed to mitigate the catalyst deactivation caused by H2O and CO2. The incorporation of cobalt in Co-CCT altered the reaction pathway and mitigated the deactivation via enhancing the consumption of surface adsorbed OH- by CO, reducing the occupancy of active sites. Also, preferential adsorption of CO further suppressed the competition of OH- and CO2 towards active sites on catalyst attributable to the abundant oxygen vacancies and low coordinated metal (i.e., Cu+, Ce3+) in Co-CCT, which significantly enhanced the resistance to H2O and CO2 in the flue gas. This work thoroughly analyzed the mechanism of H2O and CO2 impacting the catalyst activity during low-temperature CO oxidation, is able to provide innovative insights for the design of highly-active and long-shelf life catalysts.Graphic Abstract The incorporation of cobalt in CuCeTiOx catalyst facilitates the formation of oxygen vacancies, the adsorption of CO, and the consumption of OH-, speeding up the CO oxidation to CO2 and promoting the resistance to deactivation caused by H2O and CO2 in the flue gas.[GRAPHICS].

  PROCESSES, 巻：9, 号：8, 2021年08月
  Liquefaction of waste lignocellulosic biomass is a viable technology for replacing fossil fuels and meeting sustainable development goals. In this study, bio-based epoxy resins were prepared from polyhydric-alcohol-liquefied cotton stalk by glycidyl etherification. The cotton stalk was liquefied in a polyethylene glycol/glycerol cosolvent under H2SO4 catalysis. Epon 828 and cotton-stalk-based epoxy resins could be cured using methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride as the curing agent, and the curing process was exothermic. The thermal properties and tensile strength of cured resins were investigated to examine the effect of adding cotton-stalk-based resin on the performance of the copolymerized epoxy resin. Further, the liquefied-cotton-stalk-based epoxy resin was blended with Epon 828 at different ratios (10, 20, and 30 mass%) and cured with a curing agent in the presence of 2-methylimidazole catalyst. An increase in the peak temperature and a reduction in the heat of curing and activation energy of the Epon 828 epoxy resin was observed with increasing content of the cotton-stalk-based epoxy resin. The tensile strength (35.4 MPa) and elastic modulus (1.5 GPa) of the highly crosslinked cotton-stalk-based epoxy resin were equivalent to those of the petroleum-based epoxy resin Epon 828.

  Aloe vera had been used for numerous medical and cosmetic applications since ancient times. The study aimed to investigate the integrated effects of inorganic fertilizer (IF) and poultry manure (PM) on the nutritional and pharmaceutical constituents of A. vera. Eighteen month old A. vera seedlings were used following completely randomized design with three replications. Six combinations of IF [Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and sulphur (S) at the rate of 150, 80, 120 and 30 kg h(-1), respectively] and PM (at the rate of 5 t ha(-1)) were considered viz., IF00PM00 (IF = 0%, PM = 0%), IF100PM00(IF = 100%, PM = 0%), IF75PM25 (IF = 75%, PM = 25%), IF50PM50 (IF = 50%, PM = 50%), IF25PM75 (IF = 25%, PM = 75%) and IF00PM100 (IF = 0%, PM = 100%) as treatments. Different treatment combinations of IF and PM exerted significant influence on the nutritional and pharmaceutical contents of A. vera. Concentrations and uptake of the concerned nutrients were gradually increased with the increased levels of PM except NPKS which were highest in sole application of IF. The aloin concentration of leaf was gradually increased with the increased level of PM and by 42.44% over control. The highest chlorophyll, total phenolic and flavonoid concentrations were found in the plants receiving the treatment IF25PM75 except protein content which was obtained from IF100PM00. Significant and positive relationships between N and S with P concentrations and P and S with K concentrations of A. vera leaf were noticed. Aloin, total phenolic and flavonoid concentrations were significantly and positively correlated with Mg, Fe and Mn concentrations of A. vera leaf. Farmers may be advised to cultivate A. vera applying 75% PM at the rate of 5 t ha(-1) along with 25% IF (N, P, K and S at the rate of 150, 80, 120 and 30 kg ha(-1), respectively) for obtaining better quality leaf in terms of nutrients and pharmaceutical compounds under the agro-climatic conditions of the study area.

• Study on Electrostatic Preparation High-Ash Coal from China Using Roll-Type Electrostatic Separator and the Combustion Characteristics of the Cleaned Coal　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  Chengyuan Liu; Qingyue Wang
  PROCESSES, 巻：9, 号：7, 2021年07月
  The dry roll-type electrostatic coal beneficiation technology under high voltage is used to study the beneficiation of low-grade and high-ash coal in Inner Mongolia, northern China. The optimal coal beneficiation conditions are determined by adjusting three parameters: the electrode voltage, the distance between the electrode and the drum, and the angle theta of the electrode. The best quality clean coal is obtained under the condition of voltage of 30 kV, angle theta of 75 degrees, and electrode distance of 7 cm. Moreover, after separation, the quality of clean coal accounted for 48.41% of the raw coal mass, while the ash ratio decreased from 38.6% of the raw coal to 18.71% of the clean coal, which significantly improves the coal usability. Finally, through the methods of combustion characteristics analysis, infrared spectrum analysis, and combustion exhaust gas analysis of raw and clean coal, it is proven that the roll-type electrostatic separation technology has a high coal beneficiation effect on the high-ash, low-grade coal in Inner Mongolia.

  Impact factors on the salinity budget, especially the eddy salt fluxes and smaller-scale diffusive salt fluxes for the upper 50 m of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) in 2014 are investigated using a box model based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) daily outputs. The model results reproduce that the precipitation and river runoffs are the dominant factors modulating the sharp salinity decrease during the summer monsoon season. The analysis shows that the salinity increase after the summer monsoon is mostly due to the meridional advective and diffusive salt fluxes. The vertical advective salt flux, which is sensitive to the different signals of the wind stress curl, plays an important role in balancing the salinity change induced by the meridional advective salt flux during both the summer and winter monsoon seasons. Distinctive spatial mesoscale structures are presented in the eddy salt flux throughout the year, and their contributions are sizeable (over 30% in the meridional direction and about 10%-30% in the vertical direction). The meridional eddy salt flux is larger in the monsoon seasons than that in the inter-monsoon seasons, and in a positive pattern near the western boundary during the winter monsoon and autumn inter-monsoon. The vertical eddy salt flux makes an important contribution to the salinity budget, especially along the coastal area and around the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The vertical eddy salt flux becomes large when a tropical cyclone passes the area.

  The incidence and mortality rate of lung cancer is the highest in Xuanwei County, Yunnan Province, China. The mechanisms of the high lung incidence remain unclear, necessitating further study. However, the particle size distribution characteristics of HULIS emitted from residential coal combustion (RCC) have not been studied in Xuanwei. In this study, six kinds of residential coal were collected. Size-resolved particles emitted from the coal were sampled by using a burning system, which was simulated according to RCC made in our laboratory. Organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), water-soluble inorganic ion, water-soluble potentially toxic metals (WSPTMs), water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC), and HULIS-C (referred to as HULIS containing carbon contents) in the different size-segregated particulate matter (PM) samples were determined for health risk assessments by inhalation of PM. In our study, the ratio of HULIS-Cx to WSOCx values in RCC particles were 32.73-63.76% (average 53.85 +/- 12.12%) for PM2.0 and 33.91-82.67% (average 57.06 +/- 17.32%) for PM2.0 similar to 7.0, respectively. The carcinogenic risks of WSPTMs for both children and adults exceeded the acceptable level (1 x 10(-6), indicating that we should pay more attention to these WSPTMs). Exploring the HULIS content and particle size distribution of the particulate matter produced by household coal combustion provides a new perspective and evidence for revealing the high incidence of lung cancer in Xuanwei, China.

  ATMOSPHERIC ENVIRONMENT, 巻：255, 2021年06月
  Soluble irons from aerosol particles play a key role in assessment of biological and toxicological effects as a result of their oxidative potential. Several factors are responsible for controlling the solubility of irons released from aerosol mineral particles in acid solution. Here, factors of H+ concentrations, temperatures, solid-liquid ratios and particle sizes on acidsoluble irons from chlorite mineral particles were investigated in 48h. Our data demonstrated that the higher acidity, higher temperature, lower solid-liquid ratio, and smaller particle size were factors that positively influenced the solubility of FeT and Fe(II), and that the higher acidity, lower temperature, higher solid-liquid ratio, and smaller particle size positively improved the solubility of Fe(III). Fe(II) dissolved more easily than Fe(III) in the acid solution under all conditions; the percentage of Fe(III) among the total iron released from chlorite particles could be promoted by increasing the acidity, solid-liquid ratio, and particle size, or by lowering the temperature. In this acidolysis process, there is a clear order of importance of these influencing factors, H+ concentrations > particle sizes > temperatures and solid-liquid ratios. In addition, the dissolution data for FeT at pH = 0.7 and pH = 1 in 48 h could be well described and predicted by non-linear fitting with r2 > 0.99 according to continuous dissolution model. And the analysis of oxidative potential showed that Fe(II) dissolved from chlorite possessed a dominant position in generating reactive oxygen species.

  Pollen allergens, widely present in the atmosphere, are the main cause of seasonal respiratory diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. Although previous studies have reported that nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O-3) promote pollen allergy, the specific biological processes and underlying mechanisms remain less understood. In this study, Platanus pollen grains were exposed to gaseous pollutants (NO2 and O-3). We employed environmental electron microscopy, flow cytometry, western blot assay, enzyme-linked immunoassay, ultraviolet absorption spectrometry, circular dichroism, and protein mass spectrometry to characterise the subpollen particles (SPPs) released from pollen grains. Furthermore, we determined the immunogenicity and pathogenicity induced by Platanus pollen allergen a 3 (Pla a 3). Our results demonstrated that NO2 and O-3 could damage the pollen cell membranes in SPPs and increase the amount of Pla a 3 allergen released into the atmosphere. Additionally, NO2 and O-3 altered the structure of Pla a3 protein through nitrification and oxidation, which not only enhanced the immunogenicity of allergens but also increased the stability of the protein. In vivo analysis using an animal model indicated that NO2 and O-3 greatly aggravated pollen-induced pneumonia. Thus, our study provides guidance for the prevention of pollen allergic diseases.

  BIOORGANIC CHEMISTRY, 巻：110, 2021年05月
  Pillar[5]arene complexes of the naturally occurring compound bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC) were acquired for improving the water solubility and stability of BDMC. As a family member of curcuminoid compounds, BDMC has many interesting therapeutic properties. However, its low aqueous solubility and stability resulted in poor availability and restricted the clinical efficacy. Pillar[5]arenes with hydrophilic ends and a hydrophobic cavity could include with BDMC based on size matching. The synthesized hydrazide-pillar[5]arene (HP5A) and BDMC had a strong host?guest interaction with a 1:1 binding stoichiometry. Furthermore, the HP5A ? BDMC complex could self-assemble into well-defined fibers in water/ethanol solution. This supramolecular complex worked well in vitro for inhibiting the proliferation of hepatoma carcinoma cells HepG2. Remarkably, this method of complexation with pillar[5]arenes visibly reduced the undesirable side effects on normal cells without weakening the anti-cancer activity of the drugs. We expected that the obtained host?guest complex and fibrous assembly would provide a promising platform for delivering drugs with low water solubility.

  PROCESSES, 巻：9, 号：3, 2021年03月
  Airborne particulate matter (PM) pollution often occurs in the wintertime in northern China, posing a potential threat to human health. To date, there are limited studies about the metals and inorganic ions to link source apportionments and health risk assessments in the different size-segregated PM samples. In this study, our samples were collected by a high-volume air sampler from 26 December 2018 to 11 January 2019 in a high population residential area (Beijing). Water-soluble inorganic ions, metal elements in the different size-segregated PM samples were determined for health risk assessments by inhalation of PM. During the sampling period in Beijing, the average concentrations of PM1.1 and PM1.1-2.0 were 39.67 +/- 10.66 mu g m(-3) and 32.25 +/- 6.78 mu g m(-3). Distinct distribution profiles characterized the different elements. The markers of coal combustion Pb, As, and Se had >52% of their mass concentration in PM1.1. The average mass ratios of (NO3- + NO2-)/SO42-, Cl-/Na+, Cl-/K+, and Cl-/(NO3- + NO2-) were 1.68, 6.58, 6.18, and 0.57, which showed that coal combustion and vehicle emissions were the main anthropogenic sources of PM in Beijing in winter. PM1.1 was the major contributor of Pb, Cd, and As for carcinogenic risks (CR) and hazard quotient (HQ). It was indicated that PM1.1 is more harmful than coarse PM. The toxic elements of Cr (VI) (1.12 x 10(-6)), V (0.69 x 10(-6)), and As (0.41 x 10(-6)) caused higher CR for children than Ni, Cd, Co, and Pb. Meanwhile, Pb (35.30 x 10(-6)) and Ni (21.07 x 10(-6)) caused higher CR for adults than As, Cr (VI), V, Co, and Cd, especially PM1.1. This study provides detailed composition data and the first report on human health in a high population residential area in Beijing.

  Subpollen particles (SPPs) with diameter less than 1 mm released from allergenic pollen grains contain allergens could trigger asthma and lung inflammation after being inhaled. In the meaning time, ambient fine particles attached on the pollen grains could have further effects on the inflammation. However, the mechanisms underlying these phenomena have not been fully elucidated. In this study, the effects of autophagy triggered by PM2.5 and Platanus SPPs were evaluated by using the A549 cell lines and a pollen sensitized rat model. First, autophagy in A549 cells was analyzed after exposure to PM2.5 using acridine orange staining, real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR), and western blot (WB) assays. The increased levels of ROS, superoxide dismutase, and malonaldehyde in the lung homogenates of rats exposed to SPPs indicated that inflammatory response was triggered in the lungs. Treatment with autophagy-inhibiting drugs showed that autophagy suppressed ROS formation and decreased the production of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), a critical pathway altering the inflammatory response. Although the effect was indirect, autophagy appeared to negatively regulate TSLP levels, resulting in a compromised immune response. These results suggested that SPPs promote ROS generation and increase TSLP levels, triggering downstreaminflammation reactions. However, ambient PM2.5 could aggravate autophagy, which in turn effectively suppressed ROS and TSLP levels, leading to the alleviation of the immune response and pulmonary inflammation.

  A unique 1D nanostructure of Pt@CeO2-BDC was prepared from Pt@CeBDC MOF. The Pt@CeO2-BDC was rich in oxygen vacancies (i.e., XPS O-beta/(O-alpha + O-beta) = 39.4%), and on the catalyst, the 2 nm Pt clusters were uniformly deposited on the 1D mesoporous polycrystalline CeO2. Toluene oxidation was conducted in a spectroscopic operando Raman-online FTIR reactor to elucidate the reaction mechanism and establish the structure-activity relationship. The reaction proceeds as follows: (I) adsorption of toluene as benzoate intermediates on Pt@CeO2-BDC at low temperature by reaction with surface peroxide species; (II) reaction activation and ring-opening involving lattice oxygen with a concomitant change in defect densities indicative of surface rearrangement; (III) complete oxidation to CO2 and H2O by lattice oxygen and reoxidation of the reduced ceria with consumption of adsorbed oxygen species. The Pt clusters, which mainly exist as Pt2+ with minor amounts of Pt-0 and Pt4+ on the surface, facilitated the adsorption and reaction activation. The Pt-CeO2 interface generates reduced ceria sites forming nearby adsorbed peroxide at low temperature that oxidize toluene into benzoate species by a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. As the reaction temperature increases, the role of lattice oxygen becomes important, producing CO2 and H2O mainly by the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism.

  External knowledge is vital to many natural language processing tasks. However, current end-to-end dialogue systems often struggle to interface knowledge bases(KBs) with response smoothly and effectively. In this paper, we convert the raw knowledge into relation knowledge and integrated knowledge and then incorporate them into end-to-end task-oriented dialogue systems. The relation knowledge extracted from knowledge triples is combined with dialogue history, aiming to enhance semantic inputs and support better language understanding. Integrated knowledge involves entities and relations by graph attention, assisting the model in generating informative responses. The experimental results on three public dialogue datasets show that our model improves over the previous state-of-the-art models in sentence fluency and informativeness.

  Aloe vera L. is widely cultivated in many countries due to its importance as an all-purpose herbal or medicinal plant. The growth and yield of this plant can be enhanced by application of fertilizer. It is expected that a higher and balanced nutrient supply will result in higher crop production maintaining soil health, which is possible when the applied fertilizers are done in way that is efficient. So, there is a need to understand the amount of applied and type of fertilizer that will give the best output for farmers and to formulate economical market products. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of N fertilizer on leaf yield, its uptake and requirement, critical concentration, use efficiency and economics of Aloe vera L. Plants were grown at six levels of N: 0, 40, 80, 100, 150 and 200 kg ha(-1) from urea and diammonium phosphate (DAP) following completely randomized design with three replicates under field condition. The highest values of yield and yield attributes and profit based on benefit cost ratio (3.81 for urea and 2.91 for DAP) were obtained with 150 kg N ha(-1) (urea) and 100 kg N ha(-1) (DAP). Leaf biomass yield increased by 18-128 % in urea-N and 30-139 % in DAP-N fertilized plant over control while DAP > urea by 7.59 %. Sucker production (mean number) was urea-N (4.95 Plant(-1)) > DAP-N (2.28 Plant(-1)). Both gel and leaf N concentration and uptake was highest at 200 kg ha(-1) for both sources. For 80 % leaf biomass yield, minimum requirement of N was ca 74.90 (urea) and 89.60 kg ha(-1) (DAP). Growth and yield parameters to N application exhibited significant and positive correlations. Critical leaf N concentration was ca 0.88% (DAP) and 0.90% (urea) while mean and maximum NUE was 34% and 64 % (urea) and 43% and 69% (DAP), respectively. Farmers can be advised to apply N at the rate of 150 kg ha(-1) from urea for producing economically higher yield and better-quality A. vera leaves.

  TRENDS IN ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, 巻：28, 2020年12月
  Air pollutants are perhaps the largest cause of diseases and death in the world today. Increasing urbanization and industrialization have caused an increase in number of diverse forms and types of new pollutants, which are difficult to detect and characterize due to their stench behaviour and complex sources of production. Such pollutants have been called emerging pollutants (EPs) and their list is ever increasing. Therefore, the understanding of the method of analysis and health implication of (EPs) in air is critical to providing a more robust understanding of exposure routes, regulations and mitigation. EPs in air discussed in this study are not in any way exhaustive but limited to emerging VOCs (including acrylonitrile, 1-3-butadiene, chloroform, dichloromethane, ethylene oxides, formaldehyde, toluene, trichloroethylene, 1,4-Dioxane) and metals (arsenic, manganese, and vanadium), ultrafine particles, microand nanoplastics, engineered nanoparticles, diesel/black carbon and bioaerosols. Occurrence, detection and health implications of these EPs in air are still unfolding due to limited monitoring studies, lack of standard methodology and regulations. To address this knowledge gap, authors conducted an indepth review of available information. Their spatial distribution, analytical methods and health implications are discussed including the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a potential EP in air. The study concluded with highlights of gaps in knowledge and suggestions to key areas for future research. This information is of general interest to environmental scientists and of specific interest to both health and sanitation workers and policymakers at private, government and international organizations.

  Acellular assays of oxidative potential (OP) induced by ambient particulate matters (PMs) are of great significance in screening for toxicity in PMs. In this review, several typical OP measurement techniques, including the respiratory tract lining fluid assay (RTLF), ascorbate depletion assay (AA), dithiothreitol assay (DTT), chemiluminescent reductive acridinium triggering (CRAT), dichlorofluorescin assay (DCFH) and electron paramagnetic/spin resonance assay (EPR/ESR) are discussed and their sensitivity to different PMs species composition, PMs size distribution and seasonality is compared. By comparison, the DTT assay tends to be the preferred method providing a more comprehensive measurement with transition metals and quinones accumulated in the fine PMs fraction. Specific transition metals (i.e., Mn, Cu, Fe) and quinones are found to contribute OPDTT directly whereas the redox properties of PMs species may be changed by the interactions between themselves. The selection of the appropriate OP measurement methods and the accurate analysis of the relationship between the methods and PM components is conducive to epidemiological researches which are related with oxidative stress induced by PMs exposure.

  The aliovalent-substitution of cobalt into ceria lattice was demonstrated using a bimetallic CoCeBDC MOF to achieve a high degree of atomic level mixing in the CoCeOx catalyst. Spectroscopic analyses including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) confirmed the successful insertion of cobalt atom with a concomitant increase in defects (i.e., Raman I-D/I-F2g = 0.25) and oxygen vacancies (i.e., XPS O-beta/(O-alpha+O-beta)= 0.33) that correlates well with catalytic activity for the oxidations of methanol, acetone, toluene, and o-xylene. The as-prepared CoCeOx performed a 50% conversion (T-50) and 90% conversion (T90) in toluene oxidation at 212 degrees C and 227 degrees C that are significantly lower than the reference Co3O4/CeO2 nanocube catalyst that had T-50 of 261 degrees C and T-90 of 308 degrees C, indicating its better catalytic activity. Moreover, CoCeOx catalyst completely oxidizes organic compounds to carbon dioxide and water, while reaction over Co3O4/CeO2 nanocube catalyst produces significant carbon monoxide.

• Ceria and its related materials for VOC catalytic combustion: A review　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  Qingyue Wang; King Lun Yeung; Miguel A. Banares
  CATALYSIS TODAY, 巻：356, 開始ページ：141, 終了ページ：154, 2020年10月
  Based on unique oxygen storage capacity (OSC), ceria catalysts are widely investigated for remediation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) over the recent decade. It is generally accepted that VOC oxidation on ceria is through Mars-van Krevelen mechanism, where lattice oxygen (O-Lat) reacts with adsorbed VOC molecule, followed by re-oxidation of reduced ceria by replenishing O-Lat from gaseous O-2. Oxygen vacancy and oxygen mobility are the key factors involved that influence the OSC and consequently modify the catalytic performance. Many strategies have been explored in the literature to optimize the materials. For the formation energy of oxygen vacancies varies with crystal orientation, ceria with specific morphologies (i.e., nanorods with (110) and (100)) perform better than the typical ceria catalysts. Beyond that, transition metal cations (e.g., V5+, Zr4+, Cr3+, Mnx+, and Cu2+) can dope or aliovalent substitute into ceria lattice, resulting in more defects and tuning the reactivity. Precious metal nanoparticles (e.g., Au, Pt, Pd, Ru) are known to activate the lattice oxygen at the interface of noble metal and ceria, facilitating the transformation of surface oxygen species and decreasing the light-off temperature. These strategies are also applicable to keep ceria from deactivation when facing chlorinated VOCs (CVOCs) and volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs).

  Pollen pollution and allergy are becoming prominent issues in China. However, few studies on pollinosis have been reported. As an allergen in the atmosphere, allergenic Humulus scandens pollen was collected from four districts of Shanghai, including Wusong (WS), Jiading (JD), Xujiahui (XJH) and Songjiang (SJ). The mass concentrations of SO2, NO2, O-3, PM10, and PM2.5 (particulate matter with air dynamic diameter less than 10 and 2.5 mu m, respectively) near the four sampling sites were also recorded during Humulus scandens pollen season. The allergenicity of the Humulus scandens pollen was assessed by using of a rat model and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Relationships between the allergenicity and air pollutants were correlated. Our results demonstrated that the biological viability of the pollens collected from the four districts exhibited no significant differences. ELISA and dot blotting results further demonstrated that the serum of sensitized rats exhibited much higher immune-reactive response than that of control groups. Western blotting showed that the 15 KD (1KD = 1000 dalton) proteins of Humulus pollen led to the allergic response. The allergenic intensity of Humulus pollen protein from different samples followed the pattern: WS > JD > XJ > SJ. There was a negative relationship between the allergenicity of Humulus pollens and PM10 (R = -0.99) / PM2.5 (R = -0.73), and a positive relationship with O-3 (R = 0.92). These data clearly showed that PM10 and PM2.5 could enhance Humulus pollen protein release, and O-3 could aggravate the allergenicity of the Humulus pollen.

  Humic-like substances (HULIS), the most ubiquitous class of water-soluble organic compounds in the atmosphere could enhance the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and play a significant role in impacting aerosol chemistry and health effects. In this study, twenty-three PM(2.5)samples were collected in the atmosphere of suburban Shanghai from November 29 to December 17, 2015, and March 17 to April 30, 2016, during haze and non-haze days. The mean concentrations of HULIS in spring both in haze and non-haze days (2.34 +/- 0.70 mu g/m(3)and 1.94 +/- 0.88 mu g/m(3)) were relatively higher than in that of winter (1.93 +/- 0.95 mu g/m(3)and 1.31 +/- 0.28 mu g/m(3)). The ammonium, sulfate, and nitrate are the dominant ionic species in both winter and spring during haze days in suburban Shanghai. Correlation results revealed that HULIS formation was highly associated with the biomass burning (K) and secondary aerosols formation (SIA: NH4+, SO42-, NO3-) and also well-correlated with F(-)and ca.(2+)ions, crustal elements (Al and Fe) and anthropogenic pollution metals (As, Se, Rb, Sr, and Pb), suggesting that HULIS-C formation might be from biomass burning and secondary aerosol processes and also mixed formation (marine, crustal and industrial emissions) sources. From the coinciding results of the clustering analysis and weighted-CWT model, the principal potential source regions were the short transports from the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) regions, local regions, marine areas (the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea) and also the long-range transports from northwestern in those seasons.

  Mass level of fine particles (PM2.5) in main cities in China has decreased significantly in recent years due to implementation of Chinese Clean Air Action Plan since 2013, however, O-3 pollution is getting worse than before, especially in megacities such as in Shanghai. In this work, O-3 and PM2.5 were continuously monitored from May 27, 2018 to March 31, 2019. Our data showed that the annual average concentration of PM2.5 and O-3 (O-3-8 hr, maximum 8-hour moving average of ozone days) was 39.35 +/- 35.74 and 86.49 +/- 41.65 mu g/m(3), respectively. The concentrations of PM2.5 showed clear seasonal trends, with higher concentrations in winter (83.36 +/- 18.66 mu g/m(3)) and lower concentrations in summer (19.85 +/- 7.23 mu g/m(3)), however, the seasonal trends of O-3 were different with 103.75 +/- 41.77 mu g/m(3) in summer and 58.59 +/- 21.40 mu g/m(3) in winter. Air mass backward trajectory, analyzing results of potential source contribution function model and concentration weighted trajectory model implied that pollutants from northwestern China contributed significantly to the mass concentration of Shanghai PM2.5, while pollutants from areas of eastern coastal provinces and South China Sea contributed significantly to the mass level of ozone in Shanghai atmosphere. Mass concentration of twenty-one elements in the PM2.5 were investigated, and their relationships with O-3 were analyzed. Mass level of ozone had good correlation with that of Ba (r = 0.64, p < 0.05) and V (r = 0.30, p > 0.05), suggesting vehicle emission pollutants contribute to the increasing concentration of ozone in Shanghai atmosphere.

  PROCESSES, 巻：8, 号：7, 2020年07月
  Thermochemical process of biomass is being considered as a latest technique for the restoration of energy source and biochemical products. In this study, the influence of the different heating rates on pyrolysis behaviors and kinetic of jute stick were investigated to justify the waste jute stick biomass as a potential source of bioenergy. Pyrolysis experiments were carried out at four several heating rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40 degrees C/min, by utilizing the thermogravimetric analyzer (TG-DTA) and a fixed-bed pyrolysis reactor. Two different kinetic methods, Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) and Ozawa-Flynn-Wall (OFW) were used to determine the distinct kinetic parameters. The experimental results showed that, the heating rates influenced significantly on the position of TG curve and maximum T-m peaks and highest decomposition rate of the jute stick biomass. Both the highest point of TG and the lowest point of Derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) curves were shifted towards the maximum temperature. However, the heating rates also influenced the products of pyrolysis yield, including bio-char, bio-oil and the non-condensable gases. The average values of activation energy were found to be 139.21 and 135.99 kJ/mol based on FWO and KAS models, respectively.

  ATMOSPHERE, 巻：11, 号：7, 2020年07月
  Atmospheric PM(2.5)samples from Wuhan, China were collected during a winter period of February and a summer period of August in 2018. The average PM(2.5)mass concentration in winter reached 112 mu g/m(3)-about two-fold higher than that found in summer. Eight ionic species constituted 1/3 of PM2.5, whereas more than 85% represented secondary ionic aerosols (NO3-, SO(4)(2-)and NH4+). Higher ratios of NO3-/SO42-(0.95-2.62) occurred in winter and lower ratios (0.11-0.42) occurred in summer showing the different contribution for mobile and stationary sources. Seventeen elemental species constituted about 10% of PM2.5, with over 95% Na, Mg, Al, Ca, Fe, K and Zn. Higher K-concentration occurred in winter indicating greater contribution from biomass and firework-burning. Carcinogenic risks by Cr, As, Cd, Ni and Pb in PM(2.5)indicated that about 6.94 children and 46.5 adults among per million may risk getting cancer via inhalation during surrounding winter atmospheric sampling, while about 5.41 children and 36.6 adults have the same risk during summer. Enrichment factors (EFs) and elemental ratios showed that these hazardous elements were mainly from anthropogenic sources like coal and oil combustion, gasoline and diesel vehicles.

  SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 巻：726, 2020年07月
  Soluble iron from atmospheric aerosol particles has toxicological effects on ambient environment due to their oxidative potential. However, the dissolution process and factors affecting this process are poorly understood. In this study, by solid phase characterization and aqueous dissolution experiments, we investigated the influence of acids, including HCl, H2SO4 and HNO3, and H+ concentration on iron dissolution rate, solubility and speciation of iron in chlorite, illite, kaolinite and pyrite. The dissolution of iron-bearing clay minerals, i.e. chlorite, illite and kaolinite, was a multi-stage process with a rapid rate in the initial stage and then decreasing rate in the following stages. In contrast, the regularly crystallized pyrite proceeded with an extremely rapid dissolution rate at very beginning and then remained almost constant. In all acid solutions, the dissolution rate was in the order of pyrite N illite N chlorite N kaolinite. H2SO4 was stronger than HCl and HNO3 in the destruction of mineral structures to release iron, while HNO3 dissolved more iron in pyrite (FeS2). High H+ concentration easily destroyed the mineral structures to release the structural or interlayer iron, whereas low H+ concentration increased the proportion of Fe (II) in clay minerals. Non-linear fitting of continuous dissolution models showed that the iron dissolution rates and iron redox speciation as functions of time were well predicted, with r(2) > 0.99 for chlorite and illite, and r(2) > 0.96 for kaolinite. Oxidative potential analysis proved that the dissolved iron possessed a considerable potential to generate reactive oxygen species. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  In memory computing and high-end distributed storage demand low latency, high throughput, and zero data loss simultaneously from datacenter networks. Existing reactive congestion control approaches cannot both minimize queuing latency and ensure zero data loss. A token-oriented proactive approach can achieve them together by controlling congestion even before sending data packets. However, state-of-the-art token-oriented approaches only strive to optimize network-level metrics: maximizing throughput while achieving flow-level fairness. This article answers the question of how to support objective-aware traffic scheduling in token-oriented approaches. The novelty of Token-Oriented in-network Prioritization (TOP) is that it prioritizes tokens instead of data packets. We make three contributions. Via simulations over a hypothetical TOP system, our first contribution is demonstrating the potential performance gain that can be brought by TOP. Second, we investigate the applicability of TOP. Although the overhead of enabling necessary TOP features in switches is trivial, we find that mainstream commodity datacenter switches do not support them. We hence propose a readily-deployable remedy to achieve in-network prioritization by pushing both switch and end-host hardware capacity to an extreme end. Lastly, we implement a running TOP system with Linux hosts and commodity switches, and evaluate TOP in testbeds and with large-scale simulations for various scenarios.

  ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH, 巻：27, 号：13, 開始ページ：14690, 終了ページ：14701, 2020年05月
  Ambient particulates of Shanghai with 5-stage particle sizes were firstly determined in spring, 2017. The particles' mass concentrations were mainly observed in fine particle matter (PM1.1) and coarse particles (diameter > 7.0 mu m). Water-soluble ionic contents were also more distributed in PM1.1 with the great contents of secondary particles (NO3-, SO42-, and NH4+). Higher ratios of NO2/SO2 and NO3-/SO42- indicated that the vehicle emissions might be made more greater contribution rather than coal combustions to the fine particles. Crustal enrichment factors (EFcs) of trace elements (V, Cr, Ni, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Cd, Pb, and Bi) in PM1.1 in that called slight air pollution events were always higher than those in that called severe air pollution events and EFcs of Se were up to 2.5 x 10(4), while EFcs of Pb, Bi, and Cd were over 100. Based on kinds of elemental ratios in PM1.1 and PM1.1-2.0, atmospheric pollutants in Shanghai might be mainly from coal and oil combustions, diesel, and gasoline vehicles. Air masses backward trajectories also showed that the air masses from the northern part of China were one important air pollutant origins, but other ones might be the local sources, such as traffic and industries. Based on carcinogenic risk analysis of PM2.0, it was considerable that 12-60 children and 37-87 adults among millions of people living in Shanghai might be attacked by cancer during their lifetime. Moreover, the great carcinogenic risk was also observed according to the high concentrations of elemental Cr and As in PM1.1.

  SUSTAINABILITY, 巻：12, 号：10, 2020年05月
  Cotton is planted on a large scale in China, especially in the Xinjiang Region. A large amount of agricultural waste from cotton plants is produced annually, and currently poses a disposal problem. In this study the product after liquefaction of cotton stalk powder was mixed with diphenylmethane diisocyanate to prepare polyurethane foams. The effects of the liquefaction conditions on the properties of the polyols and polyurethane foams produced using cotton stalk were investigated. The optimal processing conditions for the liquefied product, considering the quality of the polyurethane foams, were studied as a function of the residue fraction. Bio-polyols with promising material properties were produced using liquefaction conditions of 150 degrees C, reaction time of 90 min, catalyst content of 3 wt.%, and 20 w/w% cotton stalk loading. We investigated the optimal processing conditions for producing bio-foam materials with mechanical properties comparable to those of petroleum-based foam materials. This study demonstrated the potential of cotton stalk agricultural waste for use as a feedstock for producing polyols via liquefaction. It was shown that polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400) and glycerin can be used as alternative solvents for liquefaction of lignocellulosic biomass, such as cotton stalk, to produce bio-polyol and polyurethane foams.

  The aim of this study is to investigate the epoxy resin prepared from liquefied decayed woody materials after mushroom cultivation, in order to widen the applicable range of liquefaction technology. Liquefaction technology is valid replacement of fossil fuel and serving the Sustainable Development Goals. Decayed materials have less usage due to the damage to its original form and the deterioration of its strength. However, decay refers to decomposition of woody composition of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, which are easy to be liquefied. Decayed wood woody material was first liquefied by reaction with polyethylene glycol and glycerin. Then epoxy function groups were introduced to the liquefied wood by the glycidyl etherification. The synthesized epoxy resins from decayed woody sample have the similar chemical and technological properties with these from control woody samples. This reality indicates that decayed woody materials have potentially to be used for a wide range of applications including binding and contribute to construct sustainable development society.

• Different Pyrolysis Process Conditions of South Asian Waste Coconut Shell and Characterization of Gas, Bio-Char, and Bio-Oil　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  Jayanto Kumar Sarkar; Qingyue Wang
  ENERGIES, 巻：13, 号：8, 2020年04月
  In the present study, a series of laboratory experiments were conducted to examine the impact of pyrolysis temperature on the outcome yields of waste coconut shells in a fixed bed reactor under varying conditions of pyrolysis temperature, from 400 to 800 degrees C. The temperature was increased at a stable heating rate of about 10 degrees C/min, while keeping the sweeping gas (Ar) flow rate constant at about 100 mL/min. The bio-oil was described by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) investigations and demonstrated to be an exceptionally oxygenated complex mixture. The resulting bio-chars were characterized by elemental analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The output of bio-char was diminished pointedly, from 33.6% to 28.6%, when the pyrolysis temperature ranged from 400 to 600 degrees C, respectively. In addition, the bio-chars were carbonized with the expansion of the pyrolysis temperature. Moreover, the remaining bio-char carbons were improved under a stable structure. Experimental results showed that the highest bio-oil yield was acquired at 600 degrees C, at about 48.7%. The production of gas increased from 15.4 to 18.3 wt.% as the temperature increased from 400 to 800 degrees C. Additionally, it was observed that temperature played a vital role on the product yield, as well as having a vital effect on the characteristics of waste coconut shell slow-pyrolysis.

  Plastics in agricultural soils are of current concern to environmental scientist due to potential effects on soil-plant system and food security. In this study, the effect of macro- and micro-sized plastic types of low density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS) in soil on growth of juvenile lime tree were studied using a pot experiment under ambient field conditions. To determine the effect, seven exposure patterns (single: LDPE, PP, PS and mixture: LDPE+PP, LDPE+PS, PP+PS, LDPE+PP+PS) in soil was tested. The results showed that macro-and micro- plastic residues affected the plant during vegetative growth with LDPE single exposure had the strongest negative effects (inhibition of 0.26%). However, LDPE+PP+PS had some positive effects by improving growth higher than the control. Overall, microplastics showed more negative effects than macroplastics, but the lime tree showed strong tolerance (with tolerance index > 70 %) to the different treatments. Without doubt, more research is urgently needed in order to fully understand the effect and mechanism of macroplastics and microplastics in soil-plant system. When understood remediation methods could be formulated to minimize the effects of plastics which are now ubiquitous in the environment.

  Humic-like substances (HULIS) were isolated from PM2.5 in Shanghai. The oxidative potential and the cytotoxicity of the isolated HULIS and its Fe(II) binary mixtures were evaluated by using cell-free Dithiothreitol (DTT) and cellular 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-y1)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. Our data showed that HULIS-C contents in spring during hazy and non-hazy days were relatively higher than in winter. Cell-free DTT and bioassay (reactive oxygen species (ROS) and MTT) results showed that higher ROS values were released from individual HULIS or SRFA (Suwannee River Fulvic Acid) compounds than HULIS-Fe(II) complexes and Fe(II) alone. In addition, DTT and ROS correlation results were in line with each other and the oxidative potentials of HULIS and its binary mixtures were strongly inter-correlated with carbonaceous components (WSOC, OC) in PM2.5. Dose-dependent MIT results revealed that cell mortality positively correlated with the mass concentrations of HULIS (10-50 mu g/ml). In the HULIS-Fe(II) system, the ROS generation ability depended on the mixing time of HULIS-C with Pe(II), thus suggesting that the organic-metal complexation time and the Fenton reaction induced by Fe (II) play a role in the cell mortality rate.

  Mixed transition metal oxides (MTMOs) have enormous potential applications in energy and environment. Their use as catalysts for the treatment of environmental pollution requires further enhancement in activity and stability. This work presents a new synthesis approach that is both convenient and effective in preparing binary metal oxide catalysts (CeCuOx) with excellent activity by achieving molecular-level mixing to promote aliovalent substitution. It also allows a single, pure MTMO to be prepared for enhanced stability under reaction by using a bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) as the catalyst precursor. This approach also enables the direct manipulation of the shape and form of the MTMO catalyst by controlling the crystallization and growth of the MOF precursor. A 2D CeCuOx catalyst is investigated for the oxidation reactions of methanol, acetone, toluene, and o-xylene. The catalyst can catalyze the complete reactions of these molecules into CO2 at temperatures below 200 degrees C, representing a significant improvement in performance. Furthermore, the catalyst can tolerate high moisture content without deactivation.

  REMOTE SENSING, 巻：11, 号：9, 2019年05月
  Based on both satellite remote sensing sea surface temperature (SST) data and numerical model results, SST warming differences in the Mozambique Channel (MC) west of the Madagascar Island (MI) were found with respect to the SST east of the MI along the same latitude. The mean SST west of the MI is up to about 3.0 degrees C warmer than that east of the MI. The SST differences exist all year round and the maximum value appears in October. The area of the highest SST is located in the northern part of the MC. Potential factors causing the SST anomalies could be sea surface wind, heat flux and oceanic flow advection. The presence of the MI results in weakening wind in the MC and in turn causes weakening of the mixing in the upper oceans, thus the surface mixed layer depth becomes shallower. There is more precipitation on the east of the MI than that inside the MC because of the orographic effects. Different precipitation patterns and types of clouds result in different solar radiant heat fluxes across both sides of the MI.

  In this study, photochemical degradation of two emerging pharmaceutical chemicals, mefenamic acid (MF) and triclosan (TCS), was investigated to clarify the role of treated wastewater effluent matrices on their environmental photolysis. Target compounds were individually exposed to simulated sunlight in different media: ultrapure buffered water and synthetic field water with treated municipal wastewater effluent. The results in ultrapure buffered water showed that the direct photolysis processes in aquatic environments are not relevant to the elimination of MF. However, in samples containing treated wastewater effluent, photochemical degradation of MF was clearly enhanced. Our results indicate that MF undergoes indirect photolysis by reactive intermediates produced in an effluent matrix. Further quenching experiments suggested that photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals and excited triplet state dissolved organic matter drive the degradation of MF. In contrast to MF, TCS photochemical degradation proceeds through rapid direct photolysis. TCS was quickly degraded in ultrapure buffered water but it is considerably hampered in samples containing wastewater effluent. The declined degradation of TCS in the synthetic field water was discussed in terms of underlying optical filter effects by coexisting chromophoric substances. Results emphasize the importance of taking local water chemistry into consideration when predicting natural attenuation of pharmaceutical chemicals in receiving areas.

  Bacteria in the atmosphere affect human health and atmospheric characteristics, however, few studies have investigated bacteria in high altitude areas in China, especially in clouds and fog. In this study, the bacterial community structures of three cloud water samples, collected at the Nanling national atmospheric monitoring station (112 degrees 53'56 '' E, 24 degrees 41'56 '' N) in China, were studied by combining culture-based approach and high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that the dominant bacteria in cloud water samples were Proteobacteria (71.36%), followed by Actinobacteria (21.72%) and bacteroidetes (6.43%), but bacterial species identified using a culture-based approach were < 1% of the total bacteria. NO2, SO42-, and pH value were related to the community structures of bacterial, indicating anthropogenic emissions possibly enhanced the variety of bacterial communities in cloud water.

  Pollen allergy has become a major problem for a considerable and steadily increasing percentage of people worldwide. Allergenic protein, which is contained in subpollens, can be released from pollen and suspended in air to cause allergenic reactions. However, the distribution of the allergenic protein and its relationship with inorganic ions in ambient particles has not been reported. Here, a recombinant Platanus acerifolia allergen3 and tandemsix-histidine epitope (His(6)) fusion protein (rPla a3) was expressed in a prokaryotic system and then purified by affinity chromatography. The allergenicity of both rPla a3 and natural Pla a3 in Platanus pollen protein extract was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using the sera of rPla a3-sensitized rats. Our results demonstrated that IgE from rPla a3-sensitized rats could be used to quantify the allergenicity of Pla a3 in the released Platanus pollen and identify the mass level of Pla 3 in size-resolved particles. The peak of natural Pla a3 expression was found in the middle of April, and the highest mass level of Pla a3 occurred in ambient particles diameters larger than 7 mu m. The mass concentration of Pla a3 in the atmosphere was consistent with that of the total protein variety, which also showed a peak in particles with diameters larger than 7 mu m during the Platanus pollen season. Remarkably, most Pla a3 existed in particulate matters > 7 mu m, including intact Platanus pollen, and non-negligible partitions of Pla a3 were detected in particles with diameters less than 7.0 mu m. Major ions (Ca2+, NH4+, and SO42-) in ambient particles not only aggravated pollen rupture and content release, but also affected the distribution of Pla 3 in the particles. Allergic disease could be specifically identified by using rPla a3, and there was a short lag between hospital admission for allergic disease and the peak of Platanus protein concentration in spring.

• Dynamics of dissolved organic matter in a wastewater effluent-impacted Japanese urban stream: characteristics, occurrence and photoreactivity of fluorescent components

  We report the results of using the excitation-emission matrix (EEM) method combined with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) to investigate the characteristics and occurrence of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in an urban stream impacted by effluent from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). The PARAFAC model divides the bulk EEM spectra into six individual fluorescent components with three humic-like components (C1-C3), two protein-like components (C4 and C5) and a wastewater-derived component (C6). In general, intensities of fluorescent components are abundant in WWTP effluent impacted samples, thus showing that such an effluent is a major source of DOM in urban rivers, but C5 is considered to have autochthonous sources within the stream. In areas where the effluent is released, the fluorescent intensity from components (except C5) gradually decreases as these components are transported downstream. However, concentrations of dissolved organic carbon remain almost constant downstream of the release area. These results would be attributed to degradation and/or modification of fluorophore. Photolysis experiments confirmed that fluorescent intensities can decrease with increase of irradiation times. C6 particularly showed a rapid photodegradation, remaining only 24.1% after 48 h photolysis. These findings would be important when assessing DOM source and water quality in aquatic environments by EEM-PARAFAC.

  Atmospheric humic-like substances (HULIS) are not only an unresolved mixture of macroorganic compounds but also powerful chelating agents in atmospheric particulate matters (PMs); impacting on both the properties of aerosol particles and health effects by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Currently, the interests of HULIS are intensively shifting to the investigations of HULIS-metal synergic effects and kinetics modeling studies, as well as the development of HULIS quantification, findings of possible HULIS sources and generation of ROS from HULIS. In light of HULIS studies, we comprehensively review the current knowledge of isolation and physicochemical characterization of HULIS fromatmospheric samples as well as HULIS properties (hygroscopic, surface activity, and colloidal) and possible sources of HULIS. This reviewmainly highlights the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) fromPMs, HULIS and transition metals, especially iron. This review also summarized the mechanism of ironorganic complexation and recent findings of OH formation from HULIS-metal complexes. This review will be helpful to carry out the modeling studies that concern with HULIS-transition metals and for further studies in the generation of ROS from HULIS-metal complexes.

  As an accumulation of solid organic and inorganic pollutant particles on outdoor ground surfaces, road dust is an important carrier of heavy metal contaminants and can be a valuable medium for characterizing urban environmental quality. Because the dusts can be an important source of atmospheric particles and take impact on human health, the aim of this study described in detail the mineralogical characteristics, morphology, and heavy metal content of road dust from Xuanwei and Fuyuan, locations with high lung cancer incidence. Our results show that the average concentrations of heavy metals in road dust were higher than their background values. Higher concentrations of heavy metals were found in the magnetic fractions (MFs) than in the non-magnetic fractions (NMFs). Magnetic measurements revealed high magnetic susceptibility values in the road dust samples, and the dominant magnetic carrier was magnetite. The magnetic grains were predominantly pseudo-single domain, multi-domain, and coarse-grained stable single domains (coarse SSD) in size. SEM/XRD analysis identified two groups of magnetic particles: spherules and angular/aggregate particles. Hazard index (HI) values for adults exposure to road dust samples, including MF, Bulk, and NMF, in both areas were lower or close to safe levels, while HI values for childhood exposure to magnetic fractions in both areas were very close or higher than safe levels. Cancer risks from road dust exposure in both areas were in the acceptable value range.

  Toluene oxidation on three ceria catalysts, CeO2, VOx/CeO2 and Au/CeO2, was investigated by an operando Raman-online FTIR reactor cell. The reactive surface oxygen sites were preferred sites for vanadium and gold deposition. The deposited vanadium existed as V5+, while most of the gold was in Au+ state and roughly a third of ceria was in the reduced Ce3+ state. The Au/CeO2 and CeO2 catalysts (T-50(*)= 260 and 290 degrees C) were more active and selective toward the complete oxidation of toluene than VOx/CeO2 catalyst (T*(50) = 370 degrees C), where T*(50) refers to the temperature for 50% of CO2 yield. The eta(2)-peroxide O-2ads(2-) ads was detected on Au/CeO2 and CeO2 catalysts, where toluene molecules preferentially adsorbed parallel to the surface via pi-bonding. Au/CeO2 gave complete combustion producing mainly CO2. On the other hand, eta(1)-superoxide O-2(-) ads was found on VOx/CeO2 catalyst and the toluene molecule adsorbed via sigma-bonding forming carbenium ions on the vanadia Bronsted acid sites. This catalyst produced significant amount of benzaldehyde as partial oxidation byproduct and CO (<25%). The nature of the active sites, configurational adsorption of toluene and the reactive oxygen species play important roles in the catalyst activity and selectivity leading to a large contrast in the catalytic behavior of the CeO2, VOx/CeO2 and Au/CeO2 catalysts.

  The objectives of this study were to assess the size-segregated distribution and sources of 37 different species of particulate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in a suburban area of Shanghai metropolitan City, China. The ambient particulate sampling was carried out on the rooftop of a five-stories building in Baoshan campus of Shanghai University. An Andersen high-volume air sampler was employed to collect ambient size-segregated particulate matter during summer of August to September and winter of November to December 2015. The high toxic PAHs were determined by a gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The concentrations of total PAHs in suspended particulate matter (SPM) and PM1.1 (suspended particulate matter below 1.1 mu m in diameter) in the suburban area of Shanghai were 4.58-14.5 ng/m(3) and 1.82-8.56 ng/m(3), respectively in summer, and 43.6-160 ng/m(3) and 23.2-121 ng/m(3), separately in winter. 1,8-Naphthalic anhydride (1,8-NA) showed the highest concentration among 37 different species of PAHs in the suburban area of Shanghai. The concentrations of high molecular PAHs (e.g. 5-6 ring PAHs) followed a nearly unimodal size distribution with the highest peaks in PM1.1. The diagnostic ration qualitatively indicated that PAHs in SPM of Shanghai were mainly derived from motor-vehicle or petroleum combustion in summer and from coal and biomass combustion in winter. According to the calculated toxicity equivalency factors based on the methods of Nisbet and Lagoy and the potency equivalency factors (PEF) recommended by U.S. EPA, the highest contributors in the total carcinogenicity of the PAHs in SPM and PM1.1 were dibenzo[a,h] pyrene (46.2% and 45.0% in summer), benzo[a] pyrene (44.4% and 43.8% in winter) and benz[j] aceanthrylene (80.2% and 83.1% in summer and 83.1% and 84.0% in winter), respectively. Therefore, benzo[a] pyrene seemed to be a lower contributor than other carcinogenic PAHs. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  A high-power and high-pulse-quality femtosecond all fiber laser amplification system is constructed based on the negative third-order dispersion compensation with fiber chirped pulse amplification technology. In the proposed system, the polarization maintaining large mode field of the double-clad Yb-doped fiber and the negative third-order dispersion fiber and the normal polarization maintaining fiber are utilized as the gain medium and mixed fiber stretcher, respectively. Moreover, a pre-compensation of third-order dispersion is implemented while the widening of the time domain is realized, therefore a high-quality and high-power laser is obtained. In the experiment, we use the hybrid fiber stretcher and a 1200 line.mm(-1) grating-pair as the compressor, and make the net third-order dispersion of the system approach zero. Consequently, we obtain a high-quality dechirp pulse with central wavelength of 1035 nm and pulse duration of 217 fs. In addition, average output power of 8.5 W at repetition rate of 111 MHz is achieved.

  LASER & OPTOELECTRONICS PROGRESS, 巻：55, 号：4, 2018年04月
  Over the last decade, there have been spectacular development in nonlinear frequency conversion techniques, due to the development of improved nonlinear materials together with the evolution of femtosecond pump lasers. Compared with traditional laser sources, nonlinear conversion techniques represent a simple and effective approach to the direct generation of widely tunable and broadband coherent radiation breaking through the limited bandwidth of gain medium. And thus such techniques arc of great interests for different applications. Up to now, our group has built up a variety of high power fiber lasers successfully, which provides a cornerstone for the nonlinear frequency conversion. We review the recent process developments in nonlinear frequency conversion techniques driven by photonics crystal femtosecond fiber lasers, especially in the last five years, including optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), excellent frequency up conversion based on GaAs nanowires, supercontinuum generation and third harmonic generation based on highly nonlinear photonic crystal fibers. In addition, basic principles and some advanced applications arc also discussed in this review.

  ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION, 巻：234, 開始ページ：707, 終了ページ：715, 2018年03月
  Ozone (O-3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are thought to play primary roles in aggravating air pollution induced health problems. However, the effects of joint O-3/NO2 on the allergenicity of pollen allergens are unclear. Humulus japonicus pollen allergen 1 (Hum j1) is a profilin protein that causes widespread pollinosis in eastern Asia. In order to study the effects of combined O-3/NO2 on the allergenicity of Hum j1, tandem six-histidine peptide tag (His6)-fused recombinant Hum j1 (rHum j1) was expressed in a prokaryotic system and purified through His6 affinity chromatography. The purified rHum j1 was used to immunize SD rats. Rat sera with high titers of IgG and IgE antibodies against rHum j1 were used for allergenicity quantification. The rHum j1 was exposed to O-3/NO2, and changes in allergenicity of the exposed rHum j1 were assayed using the immunized rat antibodies. Tandem LC-MS/LC (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer/liquid chromatography spectrometer) chromatography and UV and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy were used to study the structural changes in rHum j1. Our data demonstrated that a novel disulfide bond between the sulfhydryl groups of two neighboring cysteine molecules was formed after the rHum j1 exposure to joint O-3/NO2, and therefore IgE-binding affinity was increased and the allergenicity was reinforced. Our results provided clues to elucidate the mechanism behind air pollution-induced increase in pollinosis prevalence. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

• Survey of inorganic components in atmospheric particles of three urban areas caused by winter energy consumption in China and Japan

  WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 巻：217, 開始ページ：469, 終了ページ：479, 2018年
  Today, countries around the world are continuing to advance economically, putting a great strain on the ability of the natural environment to process the high level of pollutants being created. In recent years, the increase in fossil fuel consumption, especially in China, is significant, due to advancing economic development. Air pollution, such as suspended particle matter emitted from anthropogenic sources, has already become a serious regional problem for the urban environment, and could be an important inhibitory factor for sustainable development. In this paper, the atmospheric inorganic compositions of three urban areas - Saitama city in the Tokyo metropolitan area, Nagasaki city in Japan and Shanghai metropolitan area in China - were determined during the winter of 2015. The results showed that water-soluble components such as sulfate ion (SO4 2- ), nitrate ion (NO3 - ) and potassium ion (K + ), as secondary particles of anthropogenic combustion sources, increase in the order of Shanghai >
  Nagasaki >
  Saitama, and are several times higher in Shanghai compared with those of the other sampling sites. It was confirmed that serious air pollution events create nitrogen oxides, and sulfur oxides are caused by fossil fuel consumption. It might be possible that the urban air pollutants of fossil-fuel-burning sources were transported to Japan by “long-range transportation”. As we can see from the analytical results from the Shanghai urban area, the main source of anthropogenic pollution is commonly the exhaust emitted from motor vehicles. However, trace elements such as arsenic (As), selenium (Se), vanadium (V) and nickel (Ni) of coal and petroleum oil combustion were higher in the Nagasaki urban area than in the Saitama urban area. It was indicated that the urban air pollution in Shanghai, due to the presence of inorganic components caused by seasonal energy consumption, were much higher than in Japan during the winter sampling periods. It could be considered that the air pollutants were transported to Japan via long-range transportation. According to these experimental findings, it is evident that China's energy structure requires improvement if progress is to be made in sustainable development.

• Decayed woody material from mushroom cultivation: Characterization of liquefaction　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  Qingyue Wang; Sayuri Kawamura
  WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 巻：217, 開始ページ：481, 終了ページ：492, 2018年
  Decayed woody material from mushroom cultivation is one of the most important waste materials in Japan, as almost 300 tonnes are released each year. It is nearly impossible to reuse these resources, because of the damage to its original form and deterioration of its strength. These decayed woody materials could be used to create a valid chemical product from the main components' decomposition: this could reduce waste material and its environmental impact, especially in developing countries. This article focuses on the liquefied portion of decayed woody materials that is released from mushroom cultivation. By analysis of the products from major woody holocellulose (i.e. cellulose and hemicellulose) and lignin, we found the same ratios of weight loss in decayed woody samples, compared with the original woody samples. All the main components of the decayed wood were partially degraded. The crystallinities within woody samples were decreased with sufficient long-term decay. After these decayed woody samples were liquefied and compared with the original samples, we conducted liquefaction tests using ethylene glycol, glycerine, and the catalyst sulfuric acid. The ratios of residue during liquefaction showed that the liquefied characteristics of decayed woody material released from mushroom cultivation were equal to or less than that of the original wood. In addition, the results as determined by a Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed that the liquefied ratios of decayed woody samples could be equal to or higher than those original woody samples without decay.

  The effects of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) association on the growth, survival capabilities, nutrients and lead (Pb) uptake of Miscanthus sacchariflorus under different Pb concentrations were studied in the form of pot cultures. The treatments comprised inoculation or non-inoculation of the AMF, Gigaspora margarita, and the addition of three Pb concentrations to the soil (0, 100 and 1000 mg kg(-1)). The addition of Pb significantly decreased mycorrhizal colonisation. The inoculation of AMF with Pb increased chlorophyll content, Fv/Fm, total dry mass, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), total nitrogen, and total phosphorus, whereas H2O2 level, indole-3-acetic acid oxidase (IAAO) activity, and peroxidase (POD) activity were low compared to those in the non-inoculated treatments. Moreover, the application of AMF together with Pb doses induces concentrations of Pb in the plant, where the higher dose of Pb (1000 mg kg(-1)) induces a lower content of Pb in the aerial part of the plant but a higher content in the root. G. margarita enhanced the tolerance of M. sacchariflorus against Pb toxicity, and facilitated the accumulation of Pb in the plant roots, whereas translocation to the shoots was inhibited at the highest dose Pb (1000 mg kg(-1)). However, in contaminated soil, the Pb removal capability of M. sacchariflorus with AMF was remarkable.

In recent years, most of previous works regard NER as a sequence tagging task, including statistical models and deep learning methods. In this paper, we innovatively consider NER as a sequence transformation task in which the unlabeled sequences (source texts) are converted to labeled sequences (NER labels). In order to model this sequence transformation task, we design a sequence-to-sequence neural network, which combines a Conditional Random Fields (CRF) layer to efficiently use sentence level tag information and the attention mechanism to capture the most important semantic information of the encoded sequence. In experiments, we evaluate different models both on a standard corpus consisting of news data and an unnormalized one consisting of short messages. Experimental results showed that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on recognizing short interdependence entity.

  Background: Decades of cytotoxic and more recently immunotherapy treatments for malignant glioma have had limited success due to dynamic intra-tumoral heterogeneity. The dynamic interplay of cancer cell subpopulations has been found to be under the control of proteins in the cancer microenvironment. EGF-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein (EFEMP1) (also fibulin-3) has the multiple functions of suppressing cancer growth and angiogenesis, while promoting cancer cell invasion. EFEMP1-derived tumor suppressor protein (ETSP) retains EFEMP1' s anti-growth and anti-angiogenic functions while actually inhibiting cancer cell invasion. Methods: In this study, we examined the therapeutic effect on glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) of an in vitro synthesized protein, ZR30, which is based on the sequence of ETSP, excluding the signaling peptide. Results: ZR30 showed the same effects as ETSP in blocking EGFR/NOTCH/AKT signaling pathways, when applied to cultures of multiple GBM cell lines and primary cultures. ZR30' s inhibition of MMP2 activation was shown not only for GBM cells, but also for other types of cancer cells having overexpression of MMP2. A significant improvement in survival of mice with orthotopic human GBM xenografts was observed after a single, intra-tumoral injection of ZR30. Using a model mimicking the intra-tumoral heterogeneity of GBM with cell subpopulations carrying different invasive and proliferative phenotypes, we demonstrated an equal and simultaneous tumor suppressive effect of ZR30 on both tumor cell subpopulations, with suppression of FOXM1 and activation of SEMA3B expressions in the xenografts. Conclusion: Overall, the data support a complementary pleiotrophic therapeutic effect of ZR30 acting in the extracellular compartment of GBM.

  Coal combustion particles (CCPs) are linked to the high incidence of lung cancer in Xuanwei and in Fuyuan, China, but studies on the chemical composition of the CCPs are still limited. Single particle aerosol mass spectrometry (SPAMS) was recently developed to measure the chemical composition and size of single particles in real-time. In this study, SPAMS was used to measure individual combustion particles emitted from Xuanwei and Fuyuan coal samples and the results were compared with those by ICP-MS and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The total of 38,372 particles mass-analyzed by SPAMS can be divided into 9 groups based on their chemical composition and their number percentages: carbonaceous, Na-rich, K-rich, Al-rich, Fe-rich, Si-rich, Ca-rich, heavy metal-bearing, and PAH-bearing particles. The carbonaceous and PAH-bearing particles are enriched in the size range below 0.56 mu m, Fe-bearing particles range from 0.56 to 1.0 mu m in size, and heavy metals such as Ti, V, Cr, Cu, Zn, and Pb have diameters below 1 mu m. The TEM results show that the particles from Xuanwei and Fuyuan coal combustion can be classified into soot aggregates, Fe-rich particles, heavy metal containing particles, and mineral particles. Non-volatile particles detected by SPAMS could also be observed with TEM. The number percentages by SPAMS also correlate with the mass concentrations measured by ICP-MS. Our results could provide valuable insight for understanding high lung cancer incidence in the area. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have the ability to promote growth of the associated plants by enhancing water and nutrient uptake. In the present study, we aimed to explore the performance of Miscanthus sacchariflorus under different soil zinc (Zn) levels in association with inoculated AM fungi. M. sacchariflorus was grown in a greenhouse with three doses of added Zn (0, 100 and 1000 mg kg(-1) soil) in combination with or without association of AM fungi, and its growth, oxidative stress levels, and ultrastructure were observed. The additions of medium levels of Zn (100 mg kg-1) did not show significant effects on mycorrhizal colonization; however, when the Zn addition level was 1000 mg kg(-1), the mycorrhizal infection rate slightly decreased in comparison to the no Zn addition treatment (control). Inoculation of AM with 100 mg kg(-1) Zn addition increased chlorophyll concentration, Fv/Fm, total dry mass, concentrations of indole acetic acid, total nitrogen and total phosphorus, and content of Zn, whereas activity levels of peroxidase and indole acetic acid oxidase, and H2O2 levels were low when compared with the other two treatments. 1000 mg kg(-1) Zn addition resulted in lower Zn contents in the aerial parts of inoculated compared to non-inoculated plants. Zn crystals in the root parenchyma of mycorrhizal plants were observed. These results open the possibility of using arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi symbiotic Miscanthus plants in phytoremediation as well as to grow them in Zn-deficient soils. (C) 2017 Elsevier GmbH.

  In Japan, the primary carbonaceous particles emitted from motor vehicles and waste incinerators have been reduced due to strict regulations against exhaust gas. However, the relative contribution of carbonaceous particles derived from plants and bio-mass has been increasing. Accordingly, compositional analysis of carbonaceous particles has become increasingly important to determine the sources and types of particles produced. To reveal the sources of the organic particles contained in particulate matter with diameters of <= 2.5 mu m (PM2.5) and the processes involved in their generation, we analyzed molecular marker compounds (2-methyltetrols, cis-pinonic acid, and levoglucosan) derived from the plants and biomass in the PM2.5 collected during daytime-and nighttime-sampling periods in summer (July and August) and autumn (November) in Kazo, which is in the northern area of Saitama prefecture, Japan. We also measured C-14 carbonaceous concentrations in the same PM2.5 samples. The concentrations of 2-methyltetrols were higher in the summer than in the autumn. Because the deciduous period overlaps with this decrease in the levels of 2-methyltetrols, we considered the emission source to broad-leaved trees. In contrast, the emission source of the cispinonic acid precursor was considered to be conifers, because its concentration remained almost constant throughout the year. The concentration of levoglucosan was considerably increased in the autumn due to frequent biomass open burning. The ratio of plant-derived carbon to total carbon, obtained by measuring of C-14, in summer PM2.5 sample was higher in the nighttime, and could be influenced by anthropogenic sources during the daytime.

  Many reports have claimed that high lung cancer mortality rate in Xuanwei is associated with the residential coal combustion. Considering iron is the main chemical element in the particles emitted from Xuanwei coal combustion, and especially, reactive oxygen species (ROS) could be generated by redox-active transition metals (TM) such as iron (Fe) in particles, therefore, raw coal samples from 4 coal mines in Xuanwei were sampled, and size-resolved particles emitted from the raw coal samples were collected by using of Andersen Five-stage High Volume Sampler. Species of iron in the raw coal sample, size-resolved particles and bottom ashes were analyzed by BCR sequential extraction method (community bureau of reference, BCR). The generation potential of ·OH free radicals from coal emission particles in the surrogate lung fluid (SLF) solution was measured by using high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Our results demonstrated that a large fraction of oxidizable Fe could be found in raw coal samples. However, the acid extractable, reducible and oxidizable fractions of Fe in the fly ash particles accounted for a large proportion (46%-78%) in the size-resolved particles after coal combustion. There was difference in levels of ·OH free radicals generated from coal emission particles in the SLF for 24 hours among particles with different sizes. The concentration of ·OH increased in both fine particles (<
  1 μm, 1.1-2 μm, 2-3.3 μm) and coarse particles (3.3-7 μm, >
  7 μm) as the particles size decreased. Linear correlation could be found between the oxidizable fractions of iron and the generation of ·OH in particles emitted from coal combustion (R2=0.32).

  The paper reports a combined experimental and theoretical study of temperature dependent energy transfer process of second harmonic generation from a broadband ultrashort pulse by using the periodically poled lithium niobate crystal. It was found that a narrowband SH beam can be generated and the tuning of their central wavelength was realized by the temperature or the amount of the phasemismatching of the nonlinear crystal under large group velocity mismatch. The experimental results were well fitted by the numerical simulations on the basis of the coupled equations for the cascaded nonlinear process. The investigation allow us to provide a promising method to achieve a narrow-band, dense and efficient multi-frequency device. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

• MicroRNA-140-5p inhibits cell proliferation and invasion by regulating VEGFA/MMP2 signaling in glioma

  TUMOR BIOLOGY, 巻：39, 号：4, 2017年04月
  Glioma is the most common primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system, which results in both a poor prognosis and outcome because of the aggressive progression of disease, growth and resistance to surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. MiR-140-5p is a small, non-coding single-stranded RNA molecule, which was previously studied in the settings of human tongue cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and colorectal cancer. However, detailed data that formally demonstrate the contribution of miR-140-5p to glioma development are missing. Similarly, relatively little is known about the relationship of miR-140-5p, vascular endothelial growth factor A, and matrix metalloproteinase-2 in glioma progression. In this study, we found that miR-140-5p expression was significantly decreased in glioma tissues and in the glioma cell-lines U87 and U251 as compared with non-cancerous brain tissues by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. In addition, miR-140-5p inhibited glioma cell proliferation and invasion and promoted glioma cell apoptosis both in vivo and in vitro. Interestingly, while the expression levels of miR-140-5p were higher in glioma cells, the messenger RNA or protein expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor A and matrix metalloproteinase-2 were lower in glioma cells as determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot assay, and immunohistochemistry. By contrast, downregulation in the expression levels of miR-140-5p augmented the messenger RNA and protein expression levels of both vascular endothelial growth factor A and matrix metalloproteinase-2. These findings suggested that miR-140-5p inhibited glioma proliferation and invasion by regulating the vascular endothelial growth factor A/matrix metalloproteinase-2 signaling pathway both in vitro and in vivo.

  Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollinosis is one of seasonal allergic rhinitis that mainly occurs in Japan. The pollinosis is caused by two main kinds of allergenic proteins called Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 which exist in Cryptomeria japonica pollen. In our previous study, we reported that the size-segregated of airborne fine allergenic Cry j 1 and morphological change of Cry j 1 due to the contact with rainfall. However, the study on airborne allergenic Cry j 2 in different particle sizes has not been identified until now. Therefore, the main aim of this study is to investigate the size distribution and scattering behavior of allergenic Cry j 2. The Cry j 2 particles were collected and determined in different particle sizes at the urban sampling points during the most severe pollination season of 2012 in Saitama, Japan. After the size-segregated Cry j 2 allergenic particles were collected using an Andersen high-volume (AHV) atmospheric sample, the airborne Cry j 2 concentrations were determined with a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method. At the same time, the airborne Cryptomeria japonica pollens were also counted by the Durham pollen sampler. The higher concentrations of the allergenic Cry j 2 were detected even in particle sizes equal to or less than 1.1 mu m (PM1.1) than other particle sizes. The airborne particles ranges from 0.06 to 11 mu m were also collected by a low-pressure impactor (LPI) atmospheric sampler. After that, the concentrations of Cry j 2 allergenic particles in fine particle sizes were measured by the SPR method either. With the help of this study, we have confirmed the existence of fine daughter allergenic particles, which clearly differ from the parent pollen grains in size, especially after the rainy days. It is possible that the daughter allergenic species will be released from the fractions of cell wall and burst pollen grains. We concluded that rainwater was one of the important factors that affects the release of pollen allergenic proteins of both Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 from the parent pollen grains.

  LASER PHYSICS, 巻：27, 号：2, 2017年02月
  In this paper, we demonstrate the periodic disruption formation on magnesium-oxide-doped lithium niobate surfaces by a femtosecond fiber laser system with wavelength and repetition rate of 1040 nm and 52 MHz, respectively. Three main experimental conditions, laser average power, scanning speed, and orientation of sample were systematically studied. In particular, the ablation morphologies of periodic disruptions under different crystal orientations were specifically researched. The result shows that such disruptions consisting of a bamboo-like inner structure appears periodically for focusing on the surface of X-, Y- and Z-cut wafers, which are formed by a rapid quenching of the material. Meanwhile, due to the anisotropic property, the bamboo-like inner structures consist of a cavity only arise from X-and Z-cut orientation.

  The volcanic rocksdistributed in Pingzhuang-Machang basin of Jianping countryshould belongs to YixianFormation, thevolcanism may be divided into two subcycles. The volcanic rocks mainly consists of rhyolites, trachyte and trachyandesites. The geochemical characteristicsindicate that the volcanic rocks belong to thehigh-K calc-alkalinemagmatic serious. The volcanic rocks are obviously enriched in large ion lithophile element elements (K, Rb, Sr, Zr, Ba, Pb, Li), and depleted inhigh field-strength element(HFSE) (Nb, Ti, P, Th, U, HREE) as well as compatible elements (Co, Ni, Cr, V). The volcanic rocks is rich in LREE. There is a slight negative Euanomaly, no Ce anomaly. A detailed geochemical discrimination of selected elements allowed us to identify that the volcanic rocks of Yixian Formation mainly derived from the partial melting of lower crust materials, but has been contaminated by upper crustal materials during its ascent process in some degree. The volcanic rocks of Yixian volcanic cycle weregenerated in response to lithosphere inhomogeneous extension in thecontinental intraplateorogenic belt. They have the basic characteristics of continental intra-plate volcanic rocks.

  In this study, we investigated the decayed behavior of waste woody samples caused by three kinds of white-rot fungi known as Coriolus consors, Coriolus hirsutus and Ischnoderma resinosum, which were selected to prepare and develop the decayed woody samples from original woody biomasses. After 8 weeks of decaying, the weights of all decayed woody samples had decreased. From the results of analysis of the major woody holocellulose and lignin, the same ratios of weight decrement in all decayed woody samples were found when compared with their original woody sample. It seemed that these components had degraded simultaneously. The crystallinities of woody samples had increased even though woody samples were decayed. It was thought that the amorphous parts of cellulose and hemicellulose were decomposed preferentially. We tried to use these decayed woody samples as samples for the liquefaction experiment. It is observed that the decayed woody samples may be liquefied to be the same as their original woody samples basing on the molecular weight distribution, chemical structure and other chemical parameters of the liquefied contents.

  All-optical pulse generation opens up a field for ultrawideband (UWB) applications. However, controllable pulse width and pulse type are still challenging. Here, we present a theoretical model and stimulated results of monocycle and doublet waveforms generation using programmable optical photon echo progress. We synthesized instantaneously monocycle and doublet waveforms by adjustment of pulse width, pulse amplitude, pulse position, and time interval of subpulses. We verified the possible application of the proposed method to design U. S. Federal Communications Commission-compliant UWB waveforms, and therefore, it may provide an avenue for waveform generation.

  IEEE JOURNAL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS, 巻：52, 号：9, 2016年09月
  I n this paper, a method to achieve the simultaneous quasi-phased-matched and group-velocity-matched second harmonic (SH) generation for femtosecond pulses at 1550 nm band was proposed. Under the polarization configuration (e+e-o), group velocity can be matched by control of temperature. The described coupling equations were applied to MgO doped periodically poled lithium niobate crystal, and the temporal and spectral characteristics of interaction waves were investigated. The fractional time delay between the fundamental frequency wave and the SH wave is as a function of temperature and the input pulse duration, resulting in optimal conversion efficiency. Such method can be useful for the broadband and efficient ultrafast SH pulse generation and pulse compression applications.

  Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in suspended particulate matter (SPM) contribute significantly to health risk. Our objectives were to assess the size distribution and sources of 26 PAHs and 11 polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in SPM in the suburban area, Shanghai city, China. Air sampling was carried out on the rooftop of a five-stories building in the campus of Shanghai University. An Andersen high-volume air sampler was employed to collect ambient size-segregated particles from August to September 2015. The toxic particulate PAHs were determined by the gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The concentrations of total PAHs (TPAHs) in SPM and PM1.1 (suspended particulate matter below 1.1 mu m) were in the ranges of 4.58-14.5 ng m(-3) and 1.82-8.56 ng m(-3), respectively. 1,8-naphthalic anhydride showed the highest concentrations among 37 species of PAHs and PACs ranging 7.76 -47.9 ng m(-3) and 1.50-17.6 ng m(-3) in SPM and PM1.1, respectively. The concentrations of high molecular weight 5-6 ring PAHs followed a nearly unimodal size distribution with the highest peak in PM1.1, while other lower molecular weight PAHs were not dependent on particle sizes. The toxicity analysis indicated that the carcinogenic potency of particulate PAHs primarily existed in PM1.1. Regarding meteorological parameters and other pollutants, the positive effect of humidity and NO2 over PAHs was confirmed. Diagnostic ration indicated that the particulate PAHs in Shanghai were mainly derived from motor vehicle or petroleum combustion. The highest benzo[a]pyrene equivalent (BaPeq) in SPM and PM1.1 were 2.15 ng M-3 and 1.43 ng m(-3) calculated by the toxicity equivalency factor, and 69.31 ng m(-3) and 47.81 ng M-3 estimated by the potency equivalency factors, respectively. The highest contributors in the total carcinogenicity of the particulate PAHs were dibenzo[a,h]pyrene (46.2% and 45.0%) and benz[j] aceanthrylene (80.2% and 83.1%), respectively while benzo[a]pyrene is lower contributor than other carcinogenic PAHs.

  In this paper, we report on a compact frequency conversion scheme based on high-power photonic crystal fiber (PCF) laser at optical communication band using a multigrating MgO-PPLN crystal. Temperature dependence of wave-vector mismatch, group velocity, central wavelength, and conversion efficiency was theoretically analyzed. Temperature tuning characteristics were experimentally obtained by propagating 240-fs pulses with a 126-MHz repetition rate in a 10-mm-long MgO-PPLN crystal. We also observed and characterized second-harmonic generation (SHG), third-harmonic generation (THG), and fourth-harmonic generation processes in the same crystal. Maximum SHG and THG conversion efficiency values of 27.5% and 4.3% were achieved at 100 degrees C and 77 degrees C, respectively.

  Nano-quartz in Xuanwei coal, the uppermost Permian (C1) coal deposited in the northwest of Yuanan, China, has been regarded as one of factors which caused high lung cancer incidence in the local residents. However, mineralogical characterization of the fine/ultrafine particles emitted from Xuanwei coal combustion has not previously been studied. In this study, PM1 and ultrafine particles emitted from Xuanwei coal combustion were sampled. Chemical elements in the ambient particles were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and mineralogical characterization of these ambient particles was investigated using scanning electronic microscopy (SEM/EDX) and transmission electronic microscopy, coupled with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (TEM/EDX). Our results showed that the size distribution of mineral particles from the coal combustion emissions ranged from 20 to 200 nm. Si-containing particles and Fe-containing particles accounted for 50.7% of the 150 individual particles measured, suggesting that these two types of particles were major minerals in the ambient particles generally. The nano-mineral particles were identified as quartz (SiO2) and gypsum (CaSO4) based on their crystal parameters and chemical elements. Additionally, there also existed unidentified nanominerals. Armed with these data, toxicity assessments of the nano-minerals will be carried out in a future study. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) samples pretreated by ionic liquid (ILs)-H2O mixtures were studied for application in a pyrolysis process. A 1-ethyl-3- methylimidazolium methanesulfonate [Emim][MeSO3]-H2O mixture with solid acid catalyst Nafion (R) NR50 was used in the pretreatment process. A lower amount of hydrogen bonding between neighboring pretreated MCC chains resulted from a less ordered cellulose structure, leading to lower crystallinity, decreased molecular weight and reduced thermal stability. The pyrolysis result showed that the yields of char were lower, the average reaction rate increased, and the DTG peak temperature decreased relative to the untreated MCC. The amount and concentration of the hydrogen gas obtained from the pyrolysis of sample 90(20) (4.00 mmol/g-sample) was higher than that obtained from the pyrolysis of the MCC (3.26 mmol/g-sample). This study explores MCC (pretreated by ionic liquid-H2O mixtures) with a recyclable solid acid catalyst under varying pretreatment conditions, as a potential raw feed material, to be applied in the pyrolysis

  In this paper, heat accumulation effect of MgO: LN crystal irradiated by femtosecond pulses was analyzed by a developed thermal conduction model in terms of the spatial and temporal distribution of the absorbed laser energy. Using the focused femtosecond pulses about 61 fs at 1040 nm with a repetition rate of 52 MHz, ablation morphologies under different exposure time and average power were obtained experimentally. The measured laser-induced damage threshold of X-, Y- and Z-cut MgO: LN crystals are 0.82 mJ/cm(2), 0.74 mJ/cm(2) and 0.76 mJ/cm(2), respectively, and based on the measurement achieved in the Lab the differences in the ablation morphologies were analyzed in detail.

  Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the growth, nutrient absorption, and inoculation effectiveness of AMF on pioneer plants Pharagmites japonica (C4) and Polygonum cuspidatum (C3) were evaluated by performing a pot experiment in a greenhouse at Saitama University, Japan. AMF spores were collected from the commercial product, Serakinkon. The average colonization levels of P. japonica and P. cuspidatum were 24-33% and 0.2-0.5% respectively and no colonization was found in sterilized soil treatment. AMF colonization increased the plant dry mass, phosphorus (P), and nitrogen (N) concentrations of P. japonica's roots, stems, and leaves when AMF applied with natural and sterilized soil compared with only sterilized and natural soil. This was a significant effect for N-loss minimization from soil. Maximum value showed when P. japonica was grown with natural soil in combination with AMF whereas P. cuspidatum showed very less or a negative response to AMF colonization in all cases.

  Recently, it has been reported that photocatalytic reaction drived using ultrasonic (US) irradiationeven under dark condition, and this reaction has been known as sonocatalytic reaction. However, its reactionmechanism has not become clear in detail. In this study, we evaluated the removal ratio of organic compoundsin water phase based on sonocatalytic activity with 50 kHz US irradiation under dark condition. In order toclarify the influences of TiO₂ crystal structure, physical properties of target compounds, and H₂O₂ addition onthe removal ratio, three crystal types of TiO₂ and two different aldehydes, such as benzaldehyde (C₆H₅CHO)and formaldehyde (HCHO), were used for the degradation experiments. In case of TiO₂ (P25) suspension withUS irradiation under dark condition (US/P25), removal ratios of both aldehydes increased 10 % approximately.On the other hand, the effects of crystal structure and particle size of TiO₂ were evaluated by comparing US/P25with US/ST21 and US/ST21 with US/ST01, respectively. When smaller size TiO₂ particles including rutile typestructure (P25) were used, the removal ratio of C₆H₅CHO improved slightly whereas the removal ratio of HCHOdid not change in contrast. It was estimated that sonocatalytic reaction can be occurred in hydrophobic fieldnear the cavitation bubble. Furthermore, it has been reported that OH radicals formation was influenced byH2O2 addition, and depended on TiO₂ structure. Therefore, we also investigated the effect of H₂O₂ addition onremoval ratio by US/P25 and US/ST21. As a result, by H2O2 addition, removal ratio of HCHO was enhancedby US/P25 and reduced by US/ST21. However, removal ratio of C₆H₅CHO was reduced by both US/P25 andUS/ST21. The different behavior in H₂O₂ addition means that TiO₂ characteristics contribute to sonocatalystreaction.

  Because of the scarcity of clean water, treated wastewater potentially provides an alternative source for irrigation. In the present experiment, the feasibility of using low-cost filtered municipal wastewater in the irrigation of red amaranth (Amoranthus tricolor L cv. Surma) cultivation was assessed. The collected municipal wastewater from fish markets, hospitals, clinics, sewage, and kitchens of households in Sylhet City, Bangladesh were mixed and filtered with nylon mesh. Six filtration methods were applied using the following materials: sand (T-1); sand and wood charcoal consecutively (T-2); sand, wood charcoal and rice husks consecutively (T-3); sand, wood charcoal, rice husks and sawdust consecutively (T-4); sand, wood charcoal, rice husks, sawdust and brick chips consecutively (T-5); and sand, wood charcoal, rice husks, sawdust, brick chips and gravel consecutively (T-6). The water from ponds and rivers was considered as the control treatment (L). The chemical properties and heavy metals content of the water were determined before and after the low cost filtering, and the effects of the wastewater on seed germination, plant growth and the accumulation rate of heavy metals by plants were assessed. After filtration, the pH, EC and TDS ranged from 5.87 to 9.17, 292 to 691 mu S cm(-1) and 267 to 729 mg L-1, respectively. The EC and TDS were in an acceptable level for use in irrigation, satisfying the recommendations of the FAO. However, select pH values were unsuitable for irrigation. The metal concentrations decreased after applying each treatment. The reduction of Fe,.Mn, Pb, Cu, As and Zn were 73.23%, 92.69%, 45.51%, 69.57%, 7547% and 95.06%, respectively. When we considered the individual filtering material, the maximum amount of As and Pb was absorbed by sawdust; Cu and Zn by wood charcoal; Mn and Cu by sand and Fe by gravel. Among the six filtration treatments, Ts showed the highest seed germination (67.14%), similar to the control To (77.14%). The healthy plants/pot ratio (93.62%) was significantly higher for T-5, even higher than the control (85.19%). Additionally, the average plant height for T-5 (8.097 in.) was statistically identical to the control (8.633 in.). The average number of leaves for T-5 (10) was near to the control (12). Finally, the minimum amount of heavy metals accumulated in the plants of Ts, whereas the maximum accumulation rate varied among treatments. The accumulated levels of Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn were within the safe limit; however, the concentrations of Pb and As exceeded their safe limits. The results showed that the low-cost filtration method potentially allows municipal wastewater to he used in irrigation for agricultural production.

  A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on growth, nutrient uptake, and inoculation effectiveness on Phragmites japonica. Spores of AMF strains (Gigaspora margarita Becker & Hall) were collected from the commercial product 'Serakinkon'. Four treatments, namely, natural soil (NS), natural soil inoculated by AM fungi, sterilised soil (SS) inoculated by AM fungi, and SS without AM fungi inoculation were selected to determine the effects of applied and indigenous AMF on P. japonica. The average colonisation level of P. japonica was 24-33%, whereas no colonisation was found in the SS. AMF colonisation increased the chlorophyll content (r = 0.84, p < .01), plant dry mass (r = 0.89, p < .01), and N, P, K, Mg, and Fe concentration of the plant's roots, stems, and leaves when AMF was applied with natural and SS. In all cases, maximum values were found when the plants were applied with NS in combination with AMF, but Ca concentration decreased as the colonisation level increased. Mn concentration decreased in the roots, but increased in the leaves. Cu concentration was not significantly affected by treatments. N-loss minimisation from the soil was significant when the colonisation level was high.

  The pyrolysis study of the ionic liquid (IL)-H2O mixtures pretreated bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) was investigated. 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl)-H2O, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim]BF4)-H2O and 1-butyl-3-methyl pyrrolidinium chloride ([Bmpy]Cl) -H2O with or without solid acid catalyst (Nafion®NR50) were used in the pretreatment process. The composition analysis result of untreated bamboo and pretreated bamboo were compared. XRD and SEM result were analyzed to explain the effect of ILs mixture on cellulose crystalline structures and surface structures. According to the result of TG-DTA and GC-TCD, the sample pretreated with [Bmim]Cl-H2O mixture was used in the pyrolysis process to produce more gaseous products and low char. About 0.12 g gaseous products and 0.19 g char were produced from 1.0 g sample pretreated with [Bmim]Cl-H2O mixture and added solid acid catalyst, different from the result of untreated sample, 0.04 g gaseous products and 0.24 g char. The potential and problems of IL-H2O mixture pretreatment used in thermal chemical conversion methods were discussed.

  Characteristics of spectral shift and spectrum broadening of femtosecond pulses propagation in periodically poled lithium niobate via cascaded quadratic nonlinearity are investigated. Amount of spectral broadening is obtained analytically from coupled equations including Kerr-like term. Multipeak spectra with the typical self-phase-modulation-like characteristics were obtained experimentally using 40-fs pulses with a spectral width of 60 nm at 1550-nm band. The spectral blue and red shifts as large as 50 nm were observed with a large phase mismatching Delta k = 95 mm(-1). The simulated spectra confirmed the experimental measurement.

  PARTICLE AND FIBRE TOXICOLOGY, 巻：12, 2015年03月
  Objective: The development of nanotechnology has spurred concerns about the health effects of exposure to nanoparticles (NPs) and ultrafine particles (UFPs). Toxicological data on NPs and UFPs may provide evidence to support the development of regulations to reduce the risk of particle exposure. We tried to provide fundamental data to determine differences in cytotoxicity induced by ambient UFPs and engineered metal oxide NPs (ZnO, NiO, and CeO2).Methods: UFPs were sampled by using of a nano micro-orifice uniform deposit impactor. Physicochemical characterization of the UFPs and nano metal oxide particles were studied by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Cellular toxicity induced by the different particles was assessed by using of comprehensive approaches and compared after A549 cells were exposured to the particles.Results: All of the measured particles could damage A549 cells at concentrations ranging from 25 to 200 mu g/mL. The lowest survival ratio and the highest lactate dehydrogenase level were caused by nano-ZnO particles, but the highest levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and percentages of apoptosis were observed in cells treated with the soluble fraction of ambient fine particles (PM1.8) at 200 mu g/mL. Relatively high concentrations of anthropogenic metals, including Zn, Ni, Fe, and Cu, may be responsible for the higher toxicity of fine ambient particles compared with the ambient coarse particles and UFPs. The selected heavy metals (Zn, Ni, Fe, and Cu) were found to be located in the perinuclear and cytoplasmic areas of A549 cells. The distribution pattern of metals from ambient particles showed that distributions of the metals in A549 cells were not uniform and followed the pattern Cu > Zn > Fe > Ni, suggesting that Cu was absorbed by A549 cells more easily than the other metals.Conclusions: Metal nanoparticles oxides and UFPs at low concentration could damage to cells, but the manufactured metal oxide nanoparticles are not highly toxic to lung cells compared to environmental particles. The local concentration effect of heavy metals in A549 cells, as well as the induction of oxidative stress by the particles, may be responsible for the damage observed to the cells.

  Recently the dynamics of the resonant ablation of polymers and toluene employing mid-infrared femtosecond laser (fs laser) has been calculated by using the fluid equations. The advantages and shortcomings of the mid-infrared fs laser resonant ablation have been discussed. The results indicated that the mid-infrared fs laser is a powerful tool for removing a polymer coating on the substrate made of another polymer due to good wavelength selectivity. In this paper we studied the resonant ablation processes of polymer coatings with ultrahigh molecular weight. The influence of the initial temperature was discussed and the selection rules of laser parameters were given. We also discussed how to make hollow patterns in a polymer film, and the results demonstrated the acceleration of the ablation process caused by suspending the film.

  The Shanghai subway metro system has brought great convenience to the city's travelling public, although passengers are exposed to airborne particles in this built micro-environment. However, investigations on the physicochemical characterization of PM2.5 air pollution in the Shanghai subway system are to date very limited. Three subway stations along the No. 7 line were selected as subway PM2.5 monitoring sites: Pan'guang, Shanghai University (SHU), and Jing'an, which are located in an outer suburban area, a suburban area and the urban area, respectively, airborne PM2.5 on the subway station platforms and in the ambient atmosphere above-ground was synchronously collected from 19th March to 4th, May, 2012. Cutting-edge techniques, including scanning electronic microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDX), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) were employed to investigate microscopic characterization, chemical elements and speciation of the main heavy metals in subway PM2.5. Our results demonstrated that mass levels of PM2.5 in the subway stations were higher than that in ambient air. Mass levels of PM 25 in the subway stations and in ambient air ranged from 49.17 +/- 19.7 mu g/m(3) to 66.15 +/- 25.20 mu g/m(3), and 24.52 +/- 3.3 mu g/m(3) to 65.60 +/- 5.6 mu g/m(3), respectively. The microscopic characterization of PM2.5 in ambient air and in subway stations showed marked differences. The PM2.5 in the subway stations was mainly composed of iron-containing particles and mineral particles, while the PM2.5 in ambient air largely consisted of mineral particles and soot aggregates. Fe was the most abundant element in subway PM2.5, followed by: major elements (mass level > 100 ng/m(3)) including Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Zn, Mn, Ba; sub-major elements (10 ng/m(3) < mass level < 100 ng/m(3)) including Li, Cr, Ni,Cu, Ga, Sr, Pb; and minor elements (mass level < 10 ng/m(3)), Be, V, As, Se, Rb, Ag, Cd, Tl, Bi. The mass levels of Ca, Al and Zn in ambient PM2.5 were higher than those in subway PM2.5, however those of the remaining 26 measured elements in subway PM2.5 were higher than in ambient PM2.5. The speciation of Fe in PM2.5 was in the form of Fe2+, while for Cu, that in the finer fractions (<0.25,0.5 and 1.0 mu m) was in the form Cu2+, but in the PM2.5 fraction itself, was as Cu1+ (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

  Bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) samples pretreated with ionic liquid (ILs)-H2O mixtures were studied concerning their application in the pyrolysis process. [Bmim]Cl-H2O, [Bmim]BF4-H2O, [Bmim]HSO4-H2O, and [Bmim]Ac-H2O mixture systems were used in the pretreatment process. The characteristics of pretreated bamboo were analyzed, as was cellulose extracted from ILs-H2O pretreated bamboo. The enrichment of cellulose (a-cellulose) in pretreated bamboo was achieved. The amount of char resulting from the pyrolysis of the [Bmim] Ac-H2O pretreated sample (20.1 wt%) was lower than the untreated bamboo sample (24.2 wt%) at 900 degrees C. A greater proportion of the pretreated bamboo samples was converted into gas products and/or liquids. The pretreated cellulose pyrolysis process could proceed more easily than processing untreated samples due to the disordered crystalline cellulose structure and the decrease in molecular weight.

  The potential effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on growth, nutrient assimilation, and inoculation effectiveness of AMF on the pioneer plant Miscanthus sacchariflorus which is dominant in river banks were evaluated. A pot experiment was performed in a greenhouse at Saitama University, Japan. Spores of AMF strains were collected from the commercial product 'Serakinkon'. The average colonization level of M. sacchariflorus was 23-28%, whereas no colonization was found in sterilized soil. AMF colonization increased the chlorophyll content, plant dry mass, N, P, K, Mg, Fe, Cu, and Zn concentration of the M sacchariflorus plant's roots, stems, and leaves when it was applied with natural and sterilized soil. In all cases, maximum values were measured when the M. sacchariflorus plant was applied with natural soil in combination with AMF, but Ca concentration decreased as colonization level increased. Mn concentration decreased in roots and stems but increased in leaves in natural soil, and AMF with natural soil treatment. N loss minimization from the soil was significant when colonization level was high. Therefore, AMF have some potential effects for growth of the C4 grass Miscanthus sacchariflorus and nitrogen retention in aquatic terrestrial inter-faces (river banks).

  Perfluorochemicals (PFCs) is one of the fluorinated organic synthetic oil, and has been used as heat carrier and hydraulic oil for a vacuum pump used in the semiconductor clean room. This substance has extremely strong carbon-fluorine bonds in the internal structure, and these carbon-fluorine bonds give high resistance to heat and react with other chemicals. However, PFCs is harmful to a human body, and has high global warming potential. In this study, we investigated the effects of 200 kHz ultrasonication and short-wavelength UV irradiation on the degradation of hydrophobic PFCs (perfluorooctane: PFO) and its decomposition intermediate products. As an intermediate product of PFO, we chose perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) pentafluoropropionic acid (PFPrA). 93.7% of PFO was decomposed after 60 min by 200 kHz ultrasonic irradiation, and the concentration of PFO after 120 min was below the limit of quantitation. Defluorination of PFO after 120 min was improved 2.1% by the combination of UV_<254+185> irradiation. From these results, it was confirmed that 200 kHz ultrasonic irradiation was more effective for hydrophobic perfluorochemicals like PFO, and UV254+185 irradiation was more effective for hydrophilic perfluorochemicals which is considered one of the decomposition intermediates of PFO.

  Recently, it has been reported that photocatalytic reaction drives using ultrasonic (US) irradiation even under dark condition. However, its mechanism does not become clear in detail. In this study, we evaluate the removal ratio of organic compounds in water phase based on photocatalytic activity with 50 kHz US irradiation under dark condition. In order to clarify the influences of TiO_2 crystal structure and the physical properties of target compounds, three crystal types of TiO_2 and two different aldehydes such benzaldehyde (C_6H_5CHO) and formaldehyde (HCHO) were used for degradation experiments. TiO_2 (P25) suspension with US irradiation under dark condition (US/P25) enhanced removal ratios of both aldehydes, from 8.2% (US only) to 17% (US/P25) in HCHO, and from 43% (US only) to 57% (US/P25) in C_6H_5CHO. On the other hand, the effect of crystal structure of TiO_2 was evaluated by comparing US/P25 with US/ST21. In the case of using TiO_2 including rutile type structure (P25), the removal ratio was slightly improved in C_6H_5CHO. Furthermore, US/ST21 was compared with US/ST01 from the viewpoint of the particle size. US/ST01 with smaller particle size enhanced removal ratio in C_6H_5CHO. In all experiments, no change of removal ratio was confirmed in HCHO indicating that TiO_2 crystal structure and the physical properties effect on removal ratio of hydrophobic compound. Thus, it was estimated that photocatalytic reaction by US/TiO_2 could be occurred in hydrophobic field near the cavitation bubble.

  Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very effective techniques for degradation and mineralization of organic pollutants. On the other hand, ultrasonic atomization is a very useful technique to produce ultrasonic mist which consists of submicron-scale droplets. Using these techniques, volatile organic compound (VOC) gas was decomposed on the mist surface by OH radicals generated by AOPs, and water-soluble decomposition intermediates were rapidly captured into the mist. As a result, the removal rate of toluene under UV/H_2O_2/mist condition was faster than that under UV/H_2O_2 condition. This result indicated that toluene gas could easily react with OH radicals on the mist surface, using ultrasonic atomization, because gas-liquid interfaces increased by the mist generation. Furthermore, we tried degradation experiments of toluene gas under conditions with ozone addition. Ozone also reacts with H_2O_2 to generate OH radicals (perozone reaction) on the mist surface, and toluene gas was effectively removed there by perozone reaction. Since this reaction is effective for various VOC gases, it could be a useful air purification technique. Finally, we evaluated the chemical reactivity of VOC gas with ultrasonic mist from the viewpoint of AOPs reactions.

  The link between the high incidence of lung cancer and harmful pollutants emitted by local coal combustion in Xuanwei, Yunnan province, China, has been a focus of study since the 1980s. However, the mechanisms responsible for the high lung cancer rate remain unclear, necessitating further study. Since a close relationship between ambient air particle pollution and respiratory diseases exists, we sampled size-resolved ambient particles from the atmosphere of Xuanwei. In our indoor experiment, cutting-edge methods, including scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray detection (SEMI/EDX), particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE), electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and the cell-free DCFH-DA assay, were employed to investigate the physicochemical properties, the potential to generate free radicals and the oxidative potential of ambient coarse (diameter, 1.8-10 mu m), fine (diameter, 0.1-1.8 mu m), and ultrafine (diameter, <0.1 gm) particles. We found the total mass concentrations of the size resolved particles collected in spring were higher than that in early winter. Mass percentage of fine particles accounted for 68% and 61% of the total particulate mass in spring and in early winter samples, respectively, indicating that fine particles were the major component of the Xuanwei ambient particulate matters. On the other hand, the results of SEM/EDX analysis showed that the coarse particles were dominated by minerals, the fine particles by soot aggregates and fly ashes, and the ultrafine particles by soot particles and unidentified particles. Our PIXE results revealed that crustal elements (Ca, Ti Si, Fe) were mainly distributed in coarse particles, while trace metals (Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb) dominated in the fine particle fraction, and S, a typical element emitted by coal combustion, mainly resided in fine particles collected from the winter atmosphere. EPR results indicated that the magnitude of free radical intensity caused by size-resolved particles followed these patterns: fine particles > coarse particles > ultrafine particles for spring samples and ultrafine particles > fine particles > coarse particles for winter samples. Cell-free DCFH assay results conclusively showed that all of the measured particle suspensions displayed a higher oxidative potential than the negative control. The correlation coefficient (R-2) between free radical intensity and fluorescent intensity generated by the size-resolved particles was 0.535 and 0.507 for the spring and winter seasons, respectively, implying that ambient air particles in the Xuanwei atmosphere have the ability to generate free radicals, and fine and ultrafine particles could be hazardous to local residents.

  Being major ornamental street trees, species of Platanus are widely planted in the Shanghai urban area. A great deal of allergenic Platanus pollen is released from the trees and suspended in the atmosphere during its flowering season, ultimately causing allergic respiratory diseases. Few papers have focused on the distribution of this type of pollen and its expression of allergenic proteins. In order to investigate any differences in protein expression in Platanus pollen following exposure to gaseous and particulate pollutants, a special apparatus was designed. Exposure condition (such as temperature, humidity, and exposure time) of Platanus pollen and gaseous pollutants can be simulated using of this apparatus. Fresh Platanus orientalis pollen, pollutant gases (NO2, SO2, NH3), and typical urban ambient particles (vehicle exhaust particles, VEPs) were mixed in this device to examine possible changes that might occur in ambient airborne urban pollen following exposure to such pollutants. Our results showed that the fresh P. orientalis pollen became swollen, and new kinds of particles could be found on the surface of the pollen grains after exposure to the pollutants. The results of SDS-PAGE showed that five protein bands with molecular weights of 17-19, 34, 61, 82, and 144 kDa, respectively, were detected and gray scale of these brands increased after the pollen exposure to gaseous pollutants. The two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analysis demonstrated that a Platanus pollen allergenic protein (Pla a1, with a molecular weight of 18 kDa) increased in abundance following exposure to pollutant gases and VEPs, implying that air pollutants may exacerbate the allergenicity of pollen.

  The size-segregated distribution and seasonal concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban suspended particulate matter (SPM) at the Japan national route 463 in the urban of Saitama city, Japan were investigated using an Andersen high-volume air sampler. Air sampling was carried out from June 2013 to January 2014. 37 species of toxic PAHs such as benzo[j]aceanthrylene, dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, benzo[c]fluorene and dibenzo[a,l]pyrene were measured. It was found that the average concentration of 37 species of particulate PAHs including methyl-PAHs, benzothiophenes and oxy-PAHs from atmospheric oxidation of PAHs collected in the urban of Saitama city was 3.42 to 6.51 ng/m3 during 2013 sampling campaign periods. 1,8-naphthalic anhydride (1,8-NA) showed the highest concentration among 37 species of PAHs. The concentrations of high molecular PAHs, which were found in all seasons, followed different size distribution, especially with the highest peak in fine particle sizes around 1.1 μm. The concentrations of low-molecular PAHs were not much different with particle sizes. The toxicity analysis indicated that the carcinogenic potency of particulate PAHs primarily existed in the particle size below 1.1 μm. 37 species of PAHs in urban atmospheric fine particles were not only derived from vehicle emission with long range transportation, but also produced by local other anthropogenic sources.

  JOURNAL OF APPLIED POLYMER SCIENCE, 巻：131, 号：11, 2014年06月
  Ionic liquid (IL)-water mixtures were applied in cellulose pretreatment experiment and the pretreated cellulose was used in subsequent phenol liquefaction process as a new application method. Cellulose recovery rate and the average molecular weight (M-w) of pretreated cellulose were investigated to understand the influence of these mixtures on cellulose structure. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, gel permeation chromatograph, and scanning electron microscope were used to clarify the changes of pretreated cellulose. The liquefied residues from untreated cellulose and pretreated cellulose were considered as significant index to determine the effect of IL-water mixtures on cellulose. Moreover, liquefied residues were initially characterized by the variation of the average M-w. It was suggested that the lower M-w of cellulose obtained in IL-water mixtures, and the crystalline structure was disrupted. So, some cracks were found on the cellulose surface obviously. The liquefied residues result suggested that the pretreated cellulose obtained the lower residues at the same time or the same amount of residues by using the less time. The behavior of cellulose liquefaction efficiency using IL-water mixture pretreatment was discussed. The lower M-w of cellulose was the major factor, which accelerates the cellulose phenol liquefaction process efficiency. (c) 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014, 131, 40255.

  The explicit formula solutions of cascaded third-harmonic generation (THG) process were derived based on coupled-wave equations. Conversion efficiency (CE) with the simultaneous temporal walk-off effect is theoretically investigated by use of split-step Fourier transform method, and the obtained results show that the CE of cascaded THG can be adjusted by phase mismatch, i.e., Delta k(SHG) and Delta k(THG). The walk-off effect can be eliminated to some extent by optimizing pump intensity. Using the multiple-grating periodically poled MgO-doped lithium niobate (MgO: PPLN), pumped by 50 fs optical parametric amplifier pulses, the CE of the cascaded THG was achieved (10.8%), and a detailed analysis was presented.

  Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) is the fluorinated organic synthetic oil which has been used as heat carrier and hydraulic oil for a vacuum pump used in the semiconductor clean room. This substance has extremely strong carbon-fluorine bonds in the internal structure, and these carbon-fluorine bonds give high resistance to heat and a chemical reaction. However, PFPE is harmful to a human body, and has high global warming potential. In this study, we investigated the effects of 50 and 200 kHz ultrasonication and short-wavelength UV irradiation on the degradation of PFPE and its decomposition intermediate products. As an intermediate product of PFPE, we chose pentafluoropropionic acid (PFPrA). 84.9% of PFPE was decomposed after 120 min by 200 kHz ultrasonic irradiation, and 48.6% of PFPrA was decomposed after 120 min by UV_<254+185> irradiation. From these results, it was confirmed that 200 kHz ultrasonic irradiation was more effective for hydrophobic perfluorochemicals like PFPE, and UV_<254+185> irradiation was more effective for hydrophilic perfluorochemicals like PFPrA which is one of the decomposition intermediates of PFPE.

  Use of the biomass is one of the solutions of an energy problem. The sugar provided by saccharification of the biomass can be converted into biofuel and materials. There are some problems in saccharification methods, for example, sulfuric acid saccharification needs collection and disposal of abolished sulfuric acid, hydrothermal saccharification needs high temperature and high pressure conditions, and enzymic saccharification needs long reaction time and high costs. Ultrasonic irradiation causes a physical effect as stirring and a chemical effect as radical reaction by selecting the frequency appropriately. The aim of this research is to investigate the influence of ultrasonic irradiation on solid acid saccharification of biomass under the mild condition. From our experimental results, it was suggested that solid acid method with ultrasonic irradiation accelerated the saccharification reaction at the temperature of 60 ℃. And also, the case of 50 kHz irradiation showed higher total sugar concentration than that of the 200 kHz irradiation.

  Lignocellulosic biomass is one of sustainable resources which can be used for biofuel (ethanol) and materials through saccharification. However, there are several problems in the existing saccharification methods. For example, sulfuric acid saccharification needs a complicated process to treat waste sulfuric acid, and enzymic saccharification needs long reaction time and high cost. Therefore, an effective and economical saccharification method is necessary. The aim of this research is to investigate the influence of physical pretreatment and ultrasonic irradiation on saccharification of cellulose under low sulfuric acid concentration conditions. Physical pretreatment has the refinement and disruptive effects on crystalline structure of a cellulose sample. Ultrasonic wave has a physical effect as stirring and a chemical effect as radical reaction by selecting appropriate frequency. From our experimental results, it was confirmed that ball milling pretreatment improved acid hydrolysis of cellulose by decreasing cellulose crystallinity. And it was suggested that 200 kHz of ultrasonic irradiation affected on saccharification of cellulose effectively by the chemical effect in the case of 30 wt% sulfuric acid concentration at 60℃ reaction temperature after 6 h ball milling.

  In this investigation we evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of ozone-producing UV (254 + 185 nm) irradiation and a TiO2 photocatalyst for degradation of ethylene, which is strongly hydrophobic and does not decompose easily in a humid environment. Tests were performed in a photoreactor (V = 0.55 L) under UV irradiation at various wavelengths (365, 254 and 254 + 185 nm), relative humidities (RH < 1% and RH > 86%), atmospheres (pure N-2 and air), residence times (11-33 sec), initial ethylene concentrations in the range of 25-105 ppmv and TiO2 contact areas (86.4-259 cm(2)) with presumably ambient pressure and temperature.The experimental results demonstrated that the use of TiO2 under 254 + 185 nm UV irradiation significantly enhanced the photodegradation of ethylene compared to the case of UV irradiation alone, due to the synergistic effect of photochemical oxidation in the gas phase and photocatalytic oxidation on the TiO2 surface. Photodegradation induced with 254 + 185 nm UV irradiation was compared with photodegradation induced with UV irradiation at wavelengths of 365 and 254 nm. The highest conversion and mineralization levels were obtained with 254 + 185 nm UV irradiation among the three tested UV sources. Moreover, irradiating with 254 + 185 nm light generated secondary organic aerosols (SOA) via gas-to-particle conversion of organic compounds in the air stream. The results indicate that the concentration of generated SOAs decreased in the presence of the TiO2 catalyst, and thus that TiO2 may be used to effectively control the emissions of undesirable SOAs.In an application test, for photocatalytic oxidation with 254 + 185 nm UV irradiation, corresponding to a flow rate of 0.5 L/min, and an initial concentration of 34 ppmv, over 90% of the inlet ethylene could be degraded.

  Cryptomeria japonica pollen is the most common pollen, which are scattering during each spring season in Japan. Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollinosis is one of seasonal allergic rhinitis that mainly occurs in Japan. In addition, long range transportation of Yellow Sand from the East Asian continent was also found during the pollen scattering seasons in Japan. Therefore, the interaction or impact between pollen and Yellow Sand should be concerned. In this study, our objective was to investigate the airborne behaviour of Cryptomeria japonica pollen grains and its size-segregated allergenic (Cry j 1) particles as the airborne tracer of Cryptomeria japonica pollen during the Yellow Sand events. Airborne Cryptomeria japonica pollen grains and its size-segregated allergenic particles were collected at roadside of urban residential zones of Saitama city during the pollination periods from February to March in two year investigation of 2009 and 2010. The overlap of Yellow Sand events and dispersal peak of pollen grains was observed. According to the Meteorological data, we found that the peaks of airborne pollen grains appeared under higher wind speed and temperature than the previous day. It was thought that Yellow Sand events and airborne pollen counts were related to wind speed. From the investigation of the airborne behavior of the size-segregated allergen particles by determining Cry j 1 with Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR), the higher concentrations of the allergenic Cry j 1 were detected in particle size equal to or less than 1.1 μ(PM1.1) than other particle sizes during Yellow Sand events, especially in the rainy day. We conclude that rainwater trapping Yellow Sand is one of the important factors that affect the release of allergenic pollen species of Cry j 1. Therefore, it is very important to clarify the relationships between Cryptomeria japonica pollen allergenic species and chemical contents of the Yellow Sand particles in further studies.

  Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollinosis is the most popular pollinosis in Japan. It has been reported that Cryptomeria japonica pollen allergenic species are suspended as fine particles in the urban atmosphere. These allergenic fine particles are responsible for inducing asthma by breaking into the lower respiratory tract. It has also been found that pollinosis symptoms on the sufferers appear mainly at night-time by the results from epidemiological studies. However, the exact reason for these phenomena is not yet clarified. In this study, the diurnal and nocturnal behaviours of Cryptomeria japonica pollen grains and their allergenic species in the urban area of Saitama city of Kanto Plain were investigated. Airborne pollen grains and allergenic Cry j 1 concentrations in total suspended particulate matter (TSP) were investigated at two sampling sites, a heavy traffic road (roadside site) and at the balcony of the 10th floor of the Building of Research and Project of Saitama University (general urban site). The latter sampling site where located about 300 m away from the roadside site was used as a general urban site unaffected by automobile traffic. The airborne pollen counts were measured with a real-time pollen monitor. Cry j 1 particles were collected with two high volume air samplers, and these concentrations were measured by surface plasmon resonance method with a Biacore J system. The diurnal variation of the airborne pollen counts was similar to the trends of temperature and wind speed during the day-time
  whereas its tendency with wind speed trend was not observed during the night-time. Airborne pollen counts were lower with northern wind than with southern wind because the pollen comes from the mountainous areas, and the mountains in the south are closer, about half the distance to the northern mountains. It is suggested that the peaks of airborne pollen counts during night-time in the sampling site occurred by transport of pollen grains released during day-time in the mountainous forest areas, located c.a. 100 km away from the sampling site. On the roadside site the allergenic Cry j 1 concentrations were higher than at the general urban site, nevertheless pollen grains counts were lower. These results suggested that worsening of pollinosis symptoms during nighttime in urban area was caused by transport of pollen grains during day-time in the mountainous forest areas. Moreover, pollen allergenic species become different morphology from pollen grain at roadside site, and the subsequent pollen grains re-suspension by automobile traffic.

  Ultrasonic atomization is a very useful technique to produce fine liquid particles of a diameter range below 10μm. This technique does not need calorie but uses relatively high ultrasonic of irradiation frequency. In this study, we investigated the behavior of size distribution of ultrasonic mist generated under different frequency conditions. From the results of WPS measurements, it was confirmed that the peak diameter changed to smaller range with increasing in frequency, regardless the number concentration of mist increased at the smaller range. It was thought that this tendency depended on the wavelength of capillary wave because higher frequency could generate shorter capillary wave. Using this technique, the mist with different diameter can be generated according to the purpose by changing an ultrasonic transducer with different frequency.

  Lignocellulosic biomass is one of sustainable resources which can be used for biofuel and materials by saccharification. However, there are several problems in the existing saccharification methods. For example, sulfuric acid saccharification needs a complicated process to treat waste sulfuric acid and enzymic saccharification needs long reaction time and high cost. Therefore, an effective and economical saccharification method is necessary. The aim of this research is to investigate the influence of ultrasonic irradiation on saccharification of biomass under low sulfuric acid concentration conditions. Ultrasonic wave has a physical effect as stirring and a chemical effect as radical reaction by selecting the frequency appropriately. From our experimental results, it was suggested that 200kHz of ultrasonic irradiation affected on saccharification of hemicelluloses in biomass effectively by the chemical effect in the case of 5wt% sulfuric acid concentration at 60℃ reaction temperature.

  Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very efficient methods for destruction and mineralization of recalcitrant organic compounds. On the other hand, ultrasonic atomization is a very useful technique to produce fine liquid particles of a diameter range below 10μm. In this study, gaseous VOC is removed on the mist surface or inside it by OH radicals generated from hydrogen peroxide (H_2O_2) and 254nm of UV irradiation. The degradation of gaseous pollutants in a mist formed by ultrasonic atomization was studied under various conditions. Furthermore, 200kHz of high frequency ultrasound irradiation was used for continuous supply of H_2O_2. From these experiments, sufficient removal rates of toluene were obtained not only under 200kHz/UV/mist condition but also under 200kHz/mist condition. This process may be applied as a new air purification technique.

  Chemical components of fine particles (FPs; aerodynamic diameter, Dp <2.5 mu m) and ultrafine particles (UFPs; Dp < 0.1 mu m) at Japanese and German roadsides were investigated during summer. The UFPs/FPs ratio for organic carbon (CC) concentrations on weekdays was 34.5% and 25.0% at Japanese and German roadsides, respectively, whereas 33% and 6.4% for elemental carbon (EC) concentrations, respectively. These results thus indicate a higher OC and a lower EC contribution from UFPs at the Japanese roadside than at the German roadside. In particle samples, OC2 and OC3 constituted a high proportion of UFPs, and pyrolyzed OC and EC1 were predominant among FPs of 0.1 mu m < Dp <2.5 mu m. Our results showed roadside environment exist not only primary FPs and UFPs but also secondary FPs and UFPs from photochemical reactions or long-range transport. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

  Low-molecular-weight dicarboxylic acids (diacids) exhibit semivolatile behavior in the atmosphere, but their partitioning between the gaseous and particulate phases is still unclear. An annular denuder-filter pack system with a cyclone PM2.5 was employed to investigate the gaseous and particulate phase concentrations of diacids, with high collection efficiency of most target compounds. Saturated diacids, unsaturated diacids, ketocarboxylic acids, and dicarbonyls were determined in gaseous and particulate samples collected from a suburban site in Japan, during 2007 summer, 2008 late-winter and early-winter. The concentrations of gaseous and particulate diacids in early-winter were lower than those in summer, but higher than those in late-winter. Individual diacid in gaseous phase showed a relatively good correlation with ambient oxidants, but a low correlation with NO gas (a primary pollutant). Particulate fraction to the total amount (F-p) of individual acid was larger in winter than in summer, and also was larger at night than in the daytime. In the same sample, individual diacid and ketocarboxylic acid had higher particulate phase occurrence (F-p > 56% in summer), whereas unsaturated diacid had higher gaseous phase occurrence (F-p < 18% in summer). In summer, gas/particle partitioning of diacids varied diurnally; F-p values of oxalic and glyoxylic acids increased from their lowest values in the morning to their highest values at night, exhibiting the similar diurnal variation of relative humidity in the atmosphere. The higher humidity at night may lead to the formation of droplets in which water-soluble gaseous phases can dissolve, thus promoting gas-to-particle conversion. These results suggest that gas/particle partitioning of diacids depends not only on the concentrations in the gaseous phase by photochemical oxidation, but also on the characteristics of the atmosphere (e.g., temperature, sunlight, and relative humidity) and the aerosols (e.g., acidity, alkaline composition, and water content).

  In this study, we characterized the physical form of allergenic Cry j 1 in the urban atmosphere. Through an immunofluorescence antibody method, we showed that allergenic Cry j 1 exists as fine particles (≤1.1 μm). To determine Cry j 1 concentrations and its particle size distribution, we used the ELISA method to confirm that most Cry j 1 exists as fine particles in the urban atmosphere and is found at high concentrations on fine day next to rainy day. Furthermore, we evaluated Cry j 1 denaturation by using the Biacore J system based on the surface plasmon resonence (SPR) principle and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). We showed that the dissociation constant (KD) of Cry j 1 that has been exposed to urban polluted air is lower (1.76 ×10-14 M) than that of Cry j 1 (1.32×10-9-3.37× 10-9 M) of original pollen grains that has not been exposed to air pollutants. Cry j 1 turns into low molecular weight proteins by reacting with various acidic solutions. In sum, we showed that allergenic Cry j 1 exists as fine particles that can deposit in the lower respiratory tract. This finding clarifies the relationship between Japanese cedar pollinosis and air pollutants.

  Ambient coarse particles (diameter 1.8-10 mu m), fine particles (diameter 0.1-1.8 mu m), and ultrafine particles (diameter < 0.1 mu m) in the atmosphere of the city of Shanghai were sampled during the summer of 2008 (from Aug 27 to Sep 08). Microscopic characterization of the particles was investigated by scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX). Mass concentrations of Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, and Pb in the size-resolved particles were quantified by using synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence (SRXRF). Source apportionment of the chemical elements was analyzed by means of an enrichment factor method. Our results showed that the average mass concentrations of coarse particles, fine particles and ultrafine particles in the summer air were 9.38 +/- 2.18, 8.82 +/- 3.52, and 2.02 +/- 0.41 mu g/m(3), respectively. The mass percentage of the fine particles accounted for 51.47% in the total mass of PM10, indicating that fine particles are the major component in the Shanghai ambient particles. SEM/EDX results showed that the coarse particles were dominated by minerals, fine particles by soot aggregates and fly ashes, and ultrafine particles by soot particles and unidentified particles. SRXRF results demonstrated that crustal elements were mainly distributed in the coarse particles, while heavy metals were in higher proportions in the fine particles. Source apportionment revealed that Si, K, Ca, Fe, Mn, Rb, and Sr were from crustal sources, and S, Cl, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, and Pb from anthropogenic sources. Levels of P, V, Cr, and Ni in particles might be contributed from multi-sources, and need further investigation.

  Japanese cedar pollinosis has been increasing in Japan and currently affects over 26.5 % of the population. Japanese cedar pollinosis was concerned an adjuvant effect when pollen and air pollutant was aspirated at the same time. In our previous study, it was reported that daily variation between airborne Japanese cedar pollen and its allergen particles were differed at road side. Therefore, our thought that this phenomenon was stemmed heavy traffic and/or attendant air pollutants. Thus, we investigated behavior of pollen and its allergen at top of building, as back ground, and on road side. In this result, pollen counts and Cry j 1 concentrations were indicated same variation at on road side and at top of building. Though, pollen counts at top of building were higher than them on road side; nevertheless Cry j 1 concentrations were lower than their on road side. Hence, it was thought that pollen grain was changed morphology by heavy traffic and/or attendant air pollutants. In conclusion, we suggest that patients of pollinosis are better to be provided forecast of allergen concentrations with forecast of pollen counts.

  Inertial filter sampler (INF sampler) can collect ultrafine particles (UFPs) uniformly onto a 47 mm phi quartz filter at atmospheric pressure. However, it should be concerned gas adsorption because UFPs are the mixtures of low mass components. In this study, we evaluated gas adsorption of organic carbon (OC) and ion components atmospheric UFPs using INF sampler. The concentrations of OC, elemental carbon (EC), and water-soluble inorganic ions were measured and used for artifact calculation. As a result, about 30 % of OC and 20 % of NO3- collected on the quartz filter were overestimation by gas adsorption.

  Ultrasonic atomization was applied to decomposition of organic contaminants in gas and water phase. In recent years, interesting phenomenon regarding ultrasonic atomization have been reported that VOC gases were decomposed and mineralized by photocatalytic reaction on the surface of ultrasonic mist including TiO2 powder and H2O2 which was formed from water by sonolysis. Moreover, ultrasonic atomization has ability to condense substances dissolved in water into droplets in gas-phase. In this study, we decompose organic contaminants in gas and water phases with a combination of the ultrasonic technique mentioned above under UV254 and UV254-135 irradiation.

  Ultrafine particles (Dp < 0.1 mu m; PM0.1) and fine particles (Dp < 2.5 mu m; PM2.5) were measured at suburban roadside and background sites to estimate the possible emission sources from chemical components. Atmospheric samplings of PM0.1 and PM2.5 were carried out in summer and winter with 11.5h sampling duration time to observe the variation of chemical components between daytime and nighttime. The carbonaceous components were accounted for 70 % in PM0.1 and for 40 % in PM2.5 at both sites, respectively. The carbonaceous and ionic components in PM0.1 and PM2.5 tended to increase in the daytime. Especially, from the results of chemical analysis and particle number concentrations, it was indicated that PM0.1 contributed to PM2.5 by heterogeneous particle growth. Furthermore, OCl and soot-EC in PM0.1 had the potential for the same emission source like diesel exhaust during winter measuring period.

  There are large quantities of waste rice husk around 3 million tons as biomass waste estimated every year in Japan. In recent years, there is an increasing demand on the utilization of unused biomass instead of fossil oil fuel in small size combustors for domestic use and farming-greenhouses heating during the winter season. However, there is lack of regulations or laws in operation for environmental control of the air pollution, the waste disposal and public health. So far, small size combustors are characterized by simplicity on their structure and the low costs while they can emit suspended particulate matter due to their low combustion performance. In this study, we investigated if fossil fuel can be substituted by waste rice husk in the laboratory model combustion experiment. Our experimental results showed that the particulate mass concentrations can be reduced substantially by high temperature combustion. Fine particle size distribution seems to be different with combustion conditions (e.g. smoldering combustion, flaming combustion). We can also suggest that air pollutants can be reduced if we can ensure suitable combustion performance of small size combustors even those falls out of the applicable emissions regulations.

  Major allergens of Japanese cedar pollen have cross-antigenicity together with Japanese cypress pollen allergens, since these allergens are similar in their structure. Therefore, it is important for investigation on the airborne behavior of cross-antigenic pollen allergens together with major allergenic Cry j 1, and we will set out to building up that for cedar pollinosis patient for disclosure of information of airborne amount of cross-antigenic allergens during the pollen scattering season. In our study, pollen counts were measured by Durham samplers based on gravity sedimentation and concentrations of Cry j 1 and cross-antigenic pollen allergens together with Cry j 1 in atmosphere were measured by the surface plasmon resonance method. As the results, concentrations of Cry j 1 and cross-antigenic pollen allergens during the daytime were higher than those during the nighttime while the pollen counts tend to increase with the temperature. Concentrations of allergen increased despite decreasing pollen counts from the middle to the end of April, because the pollen grains expanded and eluted allergen contents by precipitation after the scattering. It is important to investigate the concentrations of allergens since pollen counts showed the different behavior with their allergen concentrations.

  Recently, prevalence of Japanese cedar pollinosis has been increasing, and it is observed highly in Kanto area of Japan. As a cause of the high prevalence in Kanto area, we focused attention on 3-nitrotyrosines contained in allergen protein that cause the immune reactions and enhance an immunogenicity of allergen proteins. we clarified that 3-nifrotyrosine, Cry j 1 and Cry j 1 containing 3-nitrotyrosine (i.e. nitro Japanese cedar pollen allergen) induce HeLa cell (epidermoid cell) apoptosis and that nitration of tyrosine residues contained in Cry j 1 was probable to enhance the apoptosis inducibility for HeLa cell. From these results, it is suggested that further investigations will be needed for the behavior and health effect of Cry j 1 and Cry j 1 containing 3-nitrotyrosine in respirable particles.

  Ultrasonic technique is used for various fields, such as cleaning, welding, diffusion and atomization. In particular, ultrasonic atomization, a generating method of fine droplets by subjecting the liquid to the high intensity ultrasound with high frequency, is one of the most attracting techniques. The optimal frequency to generate fine droplets is 2.4 MHz. On the other hand, as an interesting phenomenon, ultrasonic atomization has ability to condense substances in water-phase into droplets in gas-phase. In this study, the condensation effect was applied to degradation of organic contaminants in water-phase. They were highly decomposed with labile species formed by short-wavelength UV irradiation (254+185 nm) or direct UV photolysis. In order to clarify the decomposition effect in gas-phase (O_3, OH radical or UV photolysis), decomposition experiments for organic substances were carried out at various experimental conditions by adding BC particle. This paper indicates a new effective utilization of ultrasonic mist for the treatment of organic contaminants in water-phase.

  Cellulosic biomass is one of the most interested materials for biofuel production. However, existing saccharification methods have several problems. For example, high concentrated sulfuric acid saccharification needs high costs for treatment of wasted acid and enzymicsaccharification is slow and uneconomical. Therefore, more effective and economical saccharification methods are necessary. In the present study, we investigated saccharification of cellulosic biomass with comparative lower concentration of sulfuric acid underultrasonic irradiation with different frequencies. Ultrasonic irradiation in water produces a lot of cavities. They cause physical effects, which give high contact efficiency between sulfuric acid and cellulose, and chemical effects based on active species and temperature, which raise the saccharification reactivity. These effects depend on ultrasonic frequency. We obtained following results when sulfuric acid concentration was 50wt%: Sulfuric acid saccharification under ultrasonic irradiation of 200 kHz promoted cellulose saccharification. And also, when reaction temperature rose from 60℃ to 80℃, the saccharification efficiency under 200 kHz irradiation was improved and higher sugar concentration was obtained.

  Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very efficient methods for destruction and mineralization of recalcitrant organic compounds. In our previous study, we have suggested the VOC removal processes using ultrasonic mist containing TiO_2 photocatalyst and UV irradiation to generate OH radicals. In this study, the degradation of gaseous VOC, such as toluene using ultrasonic mist without TiO_2 was studied under various conditions. Ultrasonic atomization is a very useful technique to produce fine liquid droples below 10 lam. It was obtained that the removal ratio was higher at the UV/H_2O_2 condition in comparison with at UV/pure water condition. This process can be applied as a new air purification technique.

  The acidity of about 2000 particulate matter samples from aircraft and ground-based monitoring is analyzed by the method similar to soil acidity determination. The ground-based samples were collected at about 50 urban or background sites in northern and southern China. Moreover, the acidic buffering capacity of those samples is also analyzed by the method of micro acid-base titration. Results indicate that the acidity level is lower in most northern areas than those in the south, and the acidic buffering capacity showed inverse tendency, correspondingly. This is the most important reason why the pollution of acidic-precipitation is much more serious in Southern China than that in Northern China. The acidity increases and the acidic buffering capacity drops with the decreasing of the particle sizes, indicating that fine particle is the main influencing factor of the acidification. The ionic results show that Ca salt is the main alkaline substance in particulate matter, whereas the acidification of particulate matter is due to the SO2 and NOx emitted from the fossil fuel burning. And among of them, coal burning is the main contributor of SO2, however the contribution of NOx that emitted from fuel burning of motor vehicles has increased in recent years. By comparison of the experimental results during the past 20 years, it can be concluded that the acid precipitation of particulate matter has not been well controlled, and it even shows an increasing tendency in China lately. The acid precipitation of particulate matter has begun to frequently attack in part of the northern areas. Multiple regression analysis indicates that coefficient value of the ions is the lowest at the urban sites and the highest at the regional sites, whereas the aircraft measurement results are intermediate between those two kinds of sites.

  The north Kanto area is about 150 km north of the heavily populated and industrialized Tokyo metropolis, and local emissions of photochemical oxidants (Ox) precursors are limited because of little anthropogenic emission. Nevertheless, high Ox concentrations exceeding the warning level for Ox (>120 ppbv, 1-h average) are often observed there. We recently reported that high Ox concentrations in the north Kanto area occur under the coupled conditions of a southerly extended sea breeze transporting Ox from the southern urban area and a subsidence inversion layer restricting vertical dispersion. However, these meteorological conditions do not always lead to high Ox concentrations. To identify other conditions affecting the occurrence of high Ox concentrations in north Kanto, we examined meteorological conditions. Key meteorological structures were two thermal lows occurring on sunny days in districts neighboring the Kanto district on the west and north. When both thermal lows persisted in their morning positions until evening, a southerly sea breeze toward the thermal lows was maintained throughout the afternoon, transporting high levels of Ox formed in south Kanto, including Tokyo, to north Kanto. When a thermal low present only in the western district moved eastward to cover the central Kanto area during the afternoon, isobars in north Kanto acquired an east-west orientation and observed wind direction became consistently northerly, thus restricting transport of high Ox from south Kanto.

  Saccharification of cellulosic biomass is important from the perspective of food protection in order to produce bio-based fuel as ethanol from non-food resources. Therefore, it can become a new chemical industrial process as an alternative exhaustible resource instead of oil. It is well known that saccharification from biomass can be accomplished by enzymatic reaction or sulfuric acid method. However, they have some disadvantages, for example, the former reaction is slow and uneconomical, and the latter method cannot recycle the liquid acid catalyst. Ultrasonic wave has a physical action as stirring and a chemical action as radical reaction by selecting the frequency appropriately. In this study, saccharification of cellulosic biomass was investigated with various recyclable solid acid catalysts. Cellulose was saccharified to low-molecular sugar with the solid acid catalyst under irradiation of an ultrasonic wave. It was found that the saccharification ratio depends on the property of the solid catalyst.

  Epidemiological studies have demonstrated positive relationships between increases in air pollution and adverse health effects. Physicochemical characterization and toxicity of ambient coarse particles (1.8-10 mu m diameter), fine particles (1.8-10 mu m diameter) and ultrafine particles (<0.1 mu m diameter) collected in Shanghai as major air pollutants were investigated. It was found that mass concentrations of different size ambient particles in Shanghai urban atmosphere were higher than those in suburban atmosphere. In addition, the mass concentrations among the different size particles were different. The coarse particles consisted of minerals, while the fine particles were mainly composed of soot aggregates and sulfates; ultrafine particles contained only small amounts of particulates. Crustal elements were mainly distributed in coarse particles, and the anthropogenic elements were mainly found in fine particles. Significant amounts of calcium and magnesium were found in ultrafine particles. Fine particles were found to generate more free radical than coarse and ultrafine particles. Moreover, the results of the cell proliferation assay indicated that ultrafine particles were more cytotoxic than fine and coarse particles. Further investigations are needed to study the mechanism of cytotoxic induced by the ambient particles. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  The frequency doubling of femtosecond pulses from an Yb-doped fiber laser source was demonstrated in a PPKTP waveguide fabricated by femtosecond laser direct writing. The PPKTP waveguide contains a fixed period of 8.9 mu m and the feomtosecond fundamental pulses have a central wavelength of 1044 nm. A maximum SHG power of 406 mW was produced, yielding a conversion efficiency of 5.6%. Numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the property of frequency doubling for femtosecond pulses. The results show that the SHG process proceeds even the quasi-phase-matching (QPM) condition is not well satisfied, which is significantly different from that of "long" pulses or CW light and is accorded with the experimental results.

  Cry j 1 is a causative substance of Japanese cedar pollinosis, and it may deteriorate by Cry j 1 invasion to a lower respiratory tract. We observed airborne particles containing Cry j 1 by an immunofluorescence technique using a fluorescence microscope, and we clarified that Cry j 1 exist as aggregates of airborne fine particles (<
  1.1 μm) in the urban atmosphere. Airborne Cry j 1 may react with air pollutants and be denature to a substance deteriorated Japanese cedar pollinosis. Therefore, we applied a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to evaluate a Cry j 1 reacted with various air pollutants by liquid phase reaction, and calculated kinetics constants of Cry j 1 extracted from pollens collected in various sites and airborne fine particles containing Cry j 1 by using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method. As a result, it is suggested that Cry j 1 may be denatured by air pollutants during the transportation to the urban atmosphere.

  With linearly coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations, numerical analysis has been performed on the mode locking forming procedure of a fiber laser in the linear cavity configuration. The fiber is Yb-doped multi-core photonic crystal fiber and semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) is adopted as the nonlinear transmission element to start mode locking. Because of the noise randomness, initial pulse would be picked out by SESAM in one or more cores which makes the multi-core mode locking quite different from single-core one. The two situations are compared and fully discussed. Mode locking in multi-core photonic crystal fiber laser can be realized only if the couple coefficient between the cores and the temporal overlap between the pulses in different cores are large enough.

  We report the coupling between surface plasmons and dipole-localized surface plasmons in a composite hole-patch structure at terahertz frequencies. The coupling is found to be changed by increasing the inner patch size, which causes prominent resonance frequency shift in the enhanced transmission. The experimental results show good agreement with numerical simulation. The study clarifies well the nature of coupling between surface plasmons and dipole-localized surface plasmons and is thus of help to identify the role of surface plasmons in the enhanced transmission observed in subwavelength metallic structures.

  The ambient PM2.5 particles were sampled synchronously at two sites,Xujiahui (a commercial center in Shanghai) and Lin'an background atmospheric monitoring station (in Zhejiang Province) in April 2008.The microscopic image of the particles were characterized by using of FESEM/EDS, while their chemical elements composition and the valence of zinc in the samples were investigated by using synchrotron radiation fluorescence technique. The average mass concentrations of PM2.5 in Xujiahui and Lin'an were (131.6±65.2), (83.5±22.9)μg/m3, respectively. The Xujiahui PM2.5 was primarily consisted by soots, flying ash and mineral particles, while the Lin'an PM2.5 was mainly composed by irregular shaped fine particles. Mass concentrations of the 19 elements (P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, Pb) were almost higher in Xujiahui PM2.5 than in Lin'an PM2.5. The result of synchrotron radiation XANES indicated that the valence of zinc was mainly in the form of zinc sulfate at the both sites. Enrichment factor analysis demonstrated all the elements except K, Ca was more enriched in Shanghai PM2.5 than in Lin'an PM2.5.

  A three-dimensional subwavelength structure with periodic complementary metal patterns operating in the terahertz range has been proposed and fabricated. The device clearly exhibits three transmission modes under normal incidence, where experimental results obtained by terahertz time domain spectroscopy and simulated results agree very well with each other. The multimode transmission characteristics are found to arise from both localized coupling of fields between the interacting layers and propagating surface waves due to Bloch excitations on the surface of the periodic structure.

  Compact and stable fringe resolution autocorrelation apparatus and spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction apparatus have been established. The spectral phase, pulse profile and pulse width can be accurately measured with the home-made apparatus. We have performed theoretical and experimental studies on spectral phase retrieval and pulse profile reconstruction. A wavelet transform technique has been introduced to the spectral phase retrieval process to eliminate the uncertainty which produced from the filter window. According this method, precise spectral phase can be obtained. As a result, precise pulse profile can be reconstructed. The results from the two apparatus have an excellent agreement.

  To clarify the characteristics of the water-soluble organic components in atmospheric aerosols, size-separated aerosol samples were simultaneously collected at a roadside site (R) and a suburban background site (S) in Saitama, Japan, during spring and summer 2007 and winter 2008. Chemical compositions, including water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC), organic carbon, inorganic ionic components, and individual water-soluble organic acids (saturated dicarboxylic acids, unsaturated dicarboxylic acids, ketocarboxylic acids, and dicarbonyls), were analyzed in size-separated samples. The seasonal variation of WSOC in Saitama aerosols was larger than the spatial difference between the two sites, with summer WSOC concentrations being 2.5-2.8 times those in the other seasons. Seasonal average concentrations of the detected organic acids in PM7.0 were 542 ng/m(3) (R) and 670 ng/m(3) (S). Strong correlations were observed between C-2-C-5 n-dicarboxylic acids and ambient oxidants. The concentration ratios of individual n-dicarboxylic acids (C-2-C-5) to elemental carbon were significantly higher in suburban samples than in roadside samples, indicating that the contribution of secondary formation to these acids was larger in suburban samples. During the warm seasons, the concentrations of sulfate, ammonium, WSOC, and individual acids in fine particles were very high, whereas nitrate, chloride, sodium, and calcium concentrations were higher in coarse particles. Comparisons between the two sites showed that secondary formation contributed more to the total amount of particulate water-soluble organic acids in Saitama aerosols than direct emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. However, vehicle exhaust was also an important source of dicarboxylic acids in Saitama aerosols, especially in the near-roadside environment.

  We report the design and testing of a novel linear scanning periodic optical delay line (ODL) by use of a helicoid reflective mirror based on a tilted parabolic generatrix that was driven by an electrical motor for a periodic change in the optical path length of the reflected light beam. The divergence and pulse front distortion of the optical beam reflected by the helicoid reflective mirror were simulated based on differential geometry. With a round-trip pass arrangement, a scanning range of delay time as large as 100 ps was obtained by spinning the helicoid reflective mirror with a pitch distance of 7.5 mm. This periodic ODL was used in an optical second-harmonic generation autocorrelator to test the linearity and temporal resolution in comparison with the autocorrelation signal obtained using an ODL structured with a motorized linear translation stage. Experiments demonstrate that our helicoid optical delay device may provide exceptional performance for optical interference, high-resolution terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, and general optical pump-probe experiments.

  The influence of the pump pulse, group-velocity mismatch, dispersion and self-phase modulation & cross phase modulation on the phase transfer in the OPA process were analyzed. The results show that very sharp phase modulation can be maintained in mid infrared range by optical parametric amplifier. The period and depth of the periodic modulation can also be maintained due to small group-velocity mismatching in the calculated wavelength range.

  9th International Conference and Exhibition - Healthy Buildings 2009, HB 2009, 2009年
  In our field study during the pollination seasons of 2007 and 2008, Japanese cedar pollen and its allergen particles were sampled in the urban residential atmosphere of Saitama, Japan. It was found that fine allergen particles were increased during sunny days after rainfalls despite pollen counts were decreased. In order to find the release mechanism of pollen allergen contents, we performed the elution experiments and morphological observation of allergen concentrations in simulated rain solutions with different inorganic salts which may be eluted from mineral and secondary formed particles. As the results, the daughter allergen particles from large parent pollen grains were determined when contacted with the simulated rain. Based on Japanese classical house structure, the houses are invaded outdoor air by automatic exhaust easily. From these results, allergen particles translated fine particles by rainfall proceed into indoor atmosphere since they easily break through the ventilation, and invade into lower respiratory tract by which can contribute to the hypersensitivity of the asthma in the urban residential area of Japan. In other words, rainfall is one of influence factors on increasing allergen concentrations in indoor atmosphere of the urban residential areas.

  LASERS IN ENGINEERING, 巻：19, 号：1-2, 開始ページ：39, 終了ページ：45, 2009年
  Vertical micro-holes were produced in a photosensitive glass (FOTURAN) using a focused femto-sccond laser irradiation at 775 nm, followed by it heat treatment and wet chemical etching in 8% hydrofluoric acid solution for 50 minutes. The micro-holes were analysed by optical and scanning electron microscopy. It is observed that the micro-holes have a circular cross-section and clear edge. Currently, micro-holes with an aspect ratio of about 7:1 can be achieved. By varying the incident laser fluence over a range of 2.3-36.2 J/cm(2) and a laser writing speed of 100-1000 mu m/s, it is possible to produce and characterize micro-holes. It is found that writing speeds hardly affect the micro-hole diameter whereas relatively lower laser fluences result in smaller diameters and the cross-section is more circular.

  We investigated the abatement of indoor pollution achieved when two types of coal-biomass briquettes (L-BBs and H-BBs) were used in place of honeycombed coal briquettes (H-coal) in household stoves in rural Chongqing, China. indoor concentrations of sulfur dioxide (502), carbon monoxide (CO), and gaseous fluoride were measured. Additionally, we evaluated the factors that affected indoor concentrations of these gases, including the amount of fuel used as well as its sulfur content, the sulfur-emission ratio determined from the amount of sulfur retained in the combustion ash, and the combustion temperature in the stoves. The average 8-h and 24-h SO2 concentrations for L-BBs were nearly equal to or less than the World Health Organization's 40 ppb guideline, whereas those for H-coal and H-BBs exceeded the guideline. The average 8-h SO2 concentrations for L-BBs were from 63 to 89% lower than those for H-coal, even though the 8-h average weight of fuel and its sulfur content for L-BBs were equal to those of H-coal. A chemical analysis of combustion ash indicated that the sulfur-emission ratio was from 26 to 48% for L-BBs, as compared with 86% for H-coal, and this difference resulted in reduction of indoor SO2 concentrations for L-BBs as compared with H-coal. Most of the 8-h average concentrations of CO and gaseous fluoride for all fuels were lower than the WHO guidelines. We concluded that BBs are a useful domestic fuel for the abatement of indoor air pollution. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  Laser sources which have high power, short time duration and are broadly tunable are needed for the application of ultra-fast lasers. Femtosecond optical parametric amplification (OPA) is one of the most important techniques to produce broadly tunable and several femtosecond laser pulses. To obtain an extremely short pulse, the femtosecond OPA should adequately support a large spectral bandwidth. Ultra-broadband type-I phase matching OPA based on BBO was theoretically investigated. The achromatic phase matching (APM) technology was introduced to femtosecond OPA, and a broadband phase matching condition was given when the signal beams were angularly dispersed. The methods were presented to choose the optimized non-collinear angle and angular dispersion. Effects of non-collinear angle and rate of angular dispersion to the parametric bandwidth were also discussed. The results indicate that a proper non-collinear angle of the noncollinear optical parametric amplifier (NOPA) and getting signal beams dispersed at the right rate in nearinfrared conditions can increase the parametric bandwidth dramatically.

  We propose in this paper a novel technique of controlling spectrum expansion of intense femtosecond pulses in argon gas by temperature. The simulation demonstrated that the temperature gradient gas-filled hollow fiber allows more incident pulse energy and therefore more spectra broadening. This scheme has the similar effect as differential pumping, while avoiding the disadvantages of gas flowing through the fiber. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  Femtosecond laser was employed to induce cell fusion. The interface between two protoplasts of Phaffia rhodozyma in contact was irradiated by femtosecond laser pulses with 1.38x10(4) W for 0.25 s. After about 20 min, the fusion of cells became visible and finally two cells merged into one larger cell within 160 min. Fusion rate at this power level was 80%. The experiments suggested the existence of threshold power for cell fusion induced by femtosecond laser. Regarding femtosecond laser pulses as a trigger, we present a hypothetical model for femtosecond laser-induced cell fusion. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.

  The theory of guided waves in metal-dielectric planar multilayer structures is applied to reduce the loss and maximize optical nonlinearity for efficient terahertz-field generation in a surface electromagnetic wave by femtosecond laser pulses confined in a chi((2)) nonlinear planar waveguide. For typical parameters of thin-film polymer waveguides and metal-dielectric interfaces, the optimal size of the chi((2)) waveguide core providing the maximum efficiency of terahertz plasmon-field generation is shown to be less than the wavelength of the optical pump field.

  Kerr nonlinearity and Kerr-like nonlinearity induced via terahertz generation and the electro-optical effect in ZnTe crystal are investigated. In general, these nonlinear effects are concomitant and difficult to quantitatively analyze in the time domain. Even Z-scan technique, which is a simple and sensitive single-beam method to determine both the sign and magnitude of the nonlinear refractive index as well as the nonlinear absorption coefficient of a given material, cannot quantitatively analyze the contribution of each nonlinear effect directly. A method is proposed in the spectral domain to distinguish between Kerr nonlinearity and Kerr-like nonlinearity. Experimental results agree with theoretical analysis.

  In China, large amounts of sulfur dioxide (SO2) from coal combustion have been emitted with the progression of industrial and economic activities. In addition, since the emissions of nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons from automobile exhaust and fossil fuel combustion have been increasing, there is the possibility that ozone (O-3) and gaseous nitric acid (HNO3) would be produced through photochemical reactions. Taking into account those circumstances, the evaluation of the uptake extent of acidic gases and oxidants to mineral dust particles may provide interesting information about the transport and fate of such gases. There are some laboratory studies about the heterogeneous reactions of air pollutants on Chinese mineral dust particles. Furthermore, these reports showed that coexistent components might importantly contribute to heterogeneous uptake and/or to oxidation of SO2. On the other hand, there are a few reports about the possibility that yellow sand particles act as chemical reaction sites in the atmosphere, and as carriers of chemical products, on the basis of chemical analysis of the yellow sand particles during the long-range transport from the source to Japan. Therefore, there is the possibility that air pollutants were attached to yellow sand particles and/or reacted with the particles. In order to obtain information about influence, of moisture, NO2, and gaseous nitric acid (HNO3) on heterogeneous reaction of SO2 on Lanzhou soil particles collected in Lanzhou, China, laboratory experiments were performed in the use of a cylindrical flow reactor. We focused uptake and oxidation of SO2 in this study. The uptake of SO2 was estimated by monitoring the concentration of SO2 continuously. As a result, a high reactivity of SO2 with Lanzhou soil particles was shown. However, the uptake of SO2 was controlled in the presence of HNO3 at < 10% RH, which suggests a rapid acidification of the particle surface by HNO3 uptake. At 80%RH, the uptake of SO2 increased significantly in comparison with < 10%RH and had little influence of NO2 and HNO3. The sulfur oxidation was discussed by means of oxidation ratio of sulfur (ORS). Moisture and NO2 increased the ORS values, and a synergic effect between both components was exhibited. This result indicated the contribution Of NO2 and metal components eluted from the particles to oxidation reaction. HNO3 also contributed to acceleration of oxidation at 80%RH. It is considered that the characteristic transformation of the China loess particle surfaces by SO2 uptake might be related significantly to moisture, NO2, and HNO3.

  In this paper, we applied wavelet-transform to analysis the water vapor absorption spectroscopy in terahertz range, and compared with conventional Fourier-transform analysis in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. The extracted absorption lines are in excellent agreement with the results of using Fourier-transform analysis. The results show that wavelet-transform analysis of the absorption spectrum delivers accurate absorption lines in THz range. Because the results are shown in a time-frequency domain, it gives a more intuitive image on when the absorption happens at which frequency. Combining wavelet-transform technique with THz-TDS, we hope there births a new spectroscopy: the wavelet-transform terahertz time-domain spectroscopy.

  Although the ZnTe crystal used the generation of THz radiation has a favorable phase matching properties at 820nm, it has strong third-order nonlinearity, such as two-photon absorption effect. And we found experimentally that, the effect of two-photon absorption in ZnTe on the THz radiation was not neglect. In addition, due to optical rectification and diffraction effect, the generated efficiency of THz radiation is also related to the optical excitation size in the emitter. In this paper, by taking into account optical rectification, diffraction and two-photon absorption effects, the theoretical model is established to describe the emitting field intensity of THz radiation. There is excellent agreement between the theoretical results and the experimental data. The good agreement demonstrates that there is a trade-off between these three effects for THz radiation.

  This paper presents a fully experimental and theoretical study on transmission properties of a deep metallic grating with subwave-length slits in THz frequency region by using THz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). The grating exposed to p-polarized incident wave exhibits enhanced nonresonant transmission in the long-wavelength region where the incident wavelength is larger than the grating period. Wood anomalies are observed when the wavelength is comparable to the grating period. Strict theory is given to explain the experimental results and the two are in good agreement. It is proposed that theWood dips may be considered a criterion and a tool to judge and control the uniformity or fabricating accuracy of the grating period. Copyright (C) 2007 Dong Liang et al.

  We measured fine particles in the diesel (DF) or bio-diesel fuel (131317) combustion exhaust generated by a diesel power generator (YDG5500B Yanmer) at two different loads (0 and 1500 W). After the dilution of exhausts to 300 times, fine particles were collected with quartz fiber filter and the size-distributions were measured with Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer. Ionic components, organic and elemental carbon, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) were analyzed with lonchromatograph, Thermal Optical Carbon Analyzer, and high-performance liquid chromatograph-fluorescence detector respectively. The chemical compositions and number-size distributions of fine particles were observed at the different combination of DF or BDF and miner, or synthetic lubricant. In the size distributions of diesel and bio-diesel exhaust particles at the different load modes, respective size distribution under low loa condition showed lower mass concentration than high load condition. When using BDF, more organic carbon (OC) was emitted than when using DF without considerable change on number-size distribution of particles, while more elemental carbon (EC) and PAHs were emitted when using DF. In the combination BDF and synthetic lubricating oil, the lowest concentration of EC, total PAHs and respective PAH were observed in the exhaust. These results suggest that 6 exhaust quality from BDF combustion can improve when replacing mineral lubricating oil to synthetic lubricating oil.

  Low-molecular-weight carbonyl compounds, generated by photochemical reactions in the atmosphere and found in the exhaust of motor vehicles, have recently come to the attention of researchers because some of them are suspected carcinogens or mutagens. Six bifunctional carbonyl compounds were detected and measured in a suburban site 30 km northwest of the Tokyo metropolitan area. Samples were taken on five sunny days between 2 August and 11 August 2003 with a low-volume denuder and three-filter tandem system using O-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl)hydroxylamine (PFBHA) as a sorbent. Bifunctional carbonyls were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after two derivatization processes with PFBHA and N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA). The average total (gas plus particle) concentrations were 162.8 ng m(-3) for pyruvic acid, 113.7 ng m(-3) for methylglyoxal, 36.0 ng m(-3) for glycolaldehyde and 58.6 ng m(-3) for glyoxal.

  It was found experimentally that the THz radiation throughput based on optical rectification is strongly related to the optical excitation size in a ZeTe emitter. The factors affecting the THz radiation throughput are investigated in detail both experimentally and theoretically. By taking into account optical rectification, diffraction and two-photon absorption effects, a theoretical model is established to describe the emitting field intensity of THz radiation. There is excellent agreement between the theoretical results and the experimental data under high excitation power. Both theoretical and experimental results demonstrate that there is a trade-off between these three effects for THz radiation, and that in order to increase the THz radiation throughput based on optical rectification, one should choose suitable excitation size under a given pump power.

  APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS, 巻：89, 号：4, 2006年07月
  Very deep metallic grating structures with subwavelength slits are processed to study the transmission properties of terahertz radiation pulses. The experiments have been performed with two samples. The delay of the terahertz pulses and the corresponding enhanced unresonant transmission spectra through the samples are observed. A simple interpretation is presented based on the combination of zero-order diffraction of the gratings with the coupling of the surface plasmon polaritons formed on the top and bottom of the gratings. The experimental results are in good agreement with theoretical calculations.

  To study the reflection and transmission properties of the gratings, a novel system based on terahertz time domain spectroscopy was established. With this system, we have synchronously measured both the reflection and transmission spectra of the deep zero-order grating with subwavelength slits. In the experiments we found that the enhanced transmission spectra of the grating are complementary to the reflection spectra, which strongly depend on the geometry of the sample and the grating pose relative to the incident THz radiation, such as leaning from incident THz radiation and slits direction of the gratings out of p-polarized radiation. The experimental results agree with the theoretical analysis based on the surface plasmon polaritons and waveguide theory.

  ADVANCED LASER TECHNOLOGIES 2005, PTS 1 AND 2, 巻：6344, 2006年
  We report a preliminary experiment result of poling in a femtosecond-laser-treated LiNbO3 (LN) crystal. Because of the precision of the femtosecond laser machine, we can control the width and depth of snicks exactly. Then the high-voltage electric field was operated on +z side of the LN crystal. The visible poling pattern was observed by it microscope and machining parameter influences the electric field distribution in the crystal. This approach does not need expensive masks and the periods of PPLN can be adjusted flexibly. Although the mechanism of core formation is not very clear yet, we believe that it would provide a novel technique of making prototype PPLN and other periodically poled crystals.

  A novel system based on terahertz time domain spectroscopy was established. On this system, we experimentally studied both the reflection and transmission properties of the deep zero-order grating with subwavelength slits. Enhanced transmission spectra were observed, which were strongly dependent on the geometry of the sample and complementary to the reflection spectra. The experimental results agree well with the theoretical analysis.

  関東地方で初冬季に出現する広域・高濃度NO₂現象の要因として, 数値実験的にはその寄与が指摘されていたNO_x-炭化水素系光化学反応を, 野外観測によって捉えることを試みた。 NO₂の高濃度 (>90ppb) が観測された1991年11月26, 27日および12月6, 7日に東京都都心部の高層ビル屋上および地上, 東京湾岸の東京都環境科学研究所, 関東平野内陸部の4地点および筑波山頂上において光化学反応に関与する物質の測定を行い, 各物質濃度の経時変化を検討した。
  東京都都心部でのperoxyacetylnitrate (PAN) 濃度は最高3.9～11.7ppbと高濃度を示し, 経時変化は [PO (=NO₂+O₃)-NO₂^Prime (直接排出起源のNO₂)] の経時変化と類似した挙動を示した。 高層ビル屋上で測定されたNO₃^-濃度は12月7日以外の3日間は日中に顕著な増加を示し, 特に12月6日に最高59μgm^-3と非常な高濃度に達した。 アセトアルデヒド/CO比は12月6, 7日の日中に顕著な増加を示した。 これらの指標物質の挙動から, 高濃度NO₂の出現時に光化学反応が生じていたことが明らかとなった。 また, 船舶による東京湾内での観測結果より, 東京湾上空ではPOはO₃の形で存在する割合が大きいことが示唆された。 さらに, 関東平野内陸部での観測結果より, 冬季光化学大気汚染はNO₃^-の生成を通して高濃度SPM現象の一因となる場合があることが明らかとなった。

  巻：35, 号：1, 2020年03月01日
  Microplastics (MPs) are now ubiquitous in global ecosystem, therefore all biota is at risk of exposure and potential toxicity. In this study, we presented an overview of information based on literature concerning exposure to MPs and the toxicity of such exposure. Currently, four major routes of exposure have been identified including entanglement, contact, ingestion and inhalation. Humans maybe the most exposed organism because they are at the peak of the food chain. Toxicology effect to marine and freshwater organisms are classified based on exposure dosage as either high (mortality, decreased reproductive output, organ damage) or low (changes in behavior with time). On plants, reports have shown that MPs exposure can affect negatively the growth and depending on exposure concentration and types of MPs and oxidative activities. However, effects on plants maybe short-term and transient. Although, toxicity studies regarding human are still ongoing as per reports, plants and animals are still scantly studied. Animal toxicity studies have widely used D. magna as model specie. MPs pollution may have a knock-on effect on trophic structure and functioning of ecosystems by affecting the base of the food chain. We concluded by identifying the gap in knowledge and give recommendations for future research.

  This paper reports on the absorption of environmental pollutants into various airborne pollen grains, aggravation of allergenicity, damage to the pollen cell walls, and the airborne behavior of fine allergenic particles, especially those released from Cryptomeria japonica (Japanese cedar) pollen, as abundantly determined on sunny days following rainfall. <BR>From the result of rainfall sampling and analysis, it was indicated that a great number of pollens were trapped in initial precipitation. At the same time, many burst pollen grains were also observed in the rainwater. Thus, it was possible that fine allergenic particles such as fractions of cell wall and contents of pollen were released from the bursting of pollen grains. On the other hand, elution of allergenic contents was increased when contacted with a weakly basic solution containing Ca2＋ ions. Therefore, we think that one important factor contributing to the small-sized allergenic particles was induced by contact with rainfall after long-range transportation events of Asian dust.<BR>We succeeded for the first time in detecting fine allergenic contents containing 3-nitrotyrosine in urban atmosphere and clarified that 3-nitrotyrosine induces HeLa cell apoptosis. We summarized the various studies to elucidate the scattering behavior of various pollens, focusing on Cryptomeria japonica pollen and its allergenic particles in the urban atmosphere. This study has the potential for future developments in palynology.

  This study utilized an inertial filter (INF) sampler to evaluate gas adsorption and chemical components in ultrafine particles (Dp < 0.1 μm; PM0.1). They were measured at suburban roadside and background sites under low conditions of PM vaporization and gas adsorption and compared with the components of fine particles (Dp < 2.5 μm; PM2.5). Atmospheric samplings of PM0.1 and PM2.5 were performed in summer and winter with 11.5 h sampling durations to observe the variation of chemical components between daytime and nighttime and to clarify the emission sources and the growth behavior of PM0.1to PM2.5. It was shown that the main components in PM0.1 and PM2.5 were different. Carbonaceous components at both sites accounted for 70 % in PM0.1 and for 40 % in PM2.5 respectively, because ionic components were dominant in PM2.5. The carbonaceous and ionic components near the roadside in PM0.1 had a tendency to be transported to background sites as they expanded via heterogeneous nucleation, especially in winter. Ultrafine particles with a diameter of 20-30 nm and OC1 fraction in OC components were confirmed only in winter, and OC1 fraction indicated higher correlation with soot EC components at both sites. Therefore, it was thought that OC1 fraction was emitted from the diesel exhaust and played an important role in the growth of PM0.1 to PM2.5.

  Degradation of volatile organic compound (VOC) gas by ultrasonic mist was investigated using a batch reactor under various experimental conditions. The experiments were conducted with or without hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) under 254 nm of UV irradiation. In the techniques with H2O2, VOC gas was removed by adsorption or reaction with OH radicals generated from H2O2 on the mist surface or inside it. Since 100% of toluene gas could be removed under all conditions by the adsorption or reaction with OH radicals on the mist surface, we evaluated the reactivity under the various experimental conditions by their reaction rates. The removal rate of toluene under UV/H2O2/mist condition was faster than that under UV/pure water/mist condition. Therefore, it is evident that H2O2 plays an important role in the generation of OH radicals and removal of gaseous VOC. Furthermore, in cases of 200 kHz of high frequency ultrasonic irradiation for the continuous generation of H2O2, sufficient removal rates were obtained not only under 200 kHz/UV/pure water/mist condition but also under 200 kHz/pure water/mist condition. Therefore, the results indicate that 200 kHz of ultrasound irradiation has a capability of continuous supply of H2O2, and a direct reaction with toluene by creating reactive cavities.

  An inertial filter (INF) sampler can collect ultrafine particles (UFP) uniformly onto a 47 mmφ quartz filter with a low pressure drop (20–30 kPa) at 40 L/min. However, gas adsorption may influence chemical composition of UFP as a positive artifact during sampling period owing to very low mass concentration of UFP. In this study, we evaluated organic gas adsorption onto the quartz filter settled in the INF sampler during collection of atmospheric UFP in summer and winter to elucidate the influence of seasonal temperature and relative humidity. The filter samples collected by the INF sampler were analyzed for organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC) by a thermal/optical carbon analyzer following the IMPROVE method.As a result, the artifacts of OC ranged from 33.0±11.7% in summer to 27.8±12.0% in winter, a large difference in the OC concentration was not observed between the seasons. The artifacts for each OC fraction showed that OC1 and OC4 were almost not adsorbed onto the filter but OC2 and OC3 were adsorbed about 40%, indicating that high boiling point components were adsorbed onto the filter at the high flow rate condition. From these results, it was thought that the gas adsorption was relatively low for the mass concentration of UFP and the INF sampler can be a useful device for UFP collection.

  Pyrolysis and gasification technology is one of the energy conversion methods using biomass. The fuel gas is obtained by pyrolysis and gasification reactions, but condensable organic compounds so-called tar is also generated. Tar clogs the pipe of gasifier and break turbine, therefore must be reduced. In a fluidized bed gasifier, contact frequency between tar and ash is high, thus, tar reduction effect by ash contained in the biomass is expected. In this study, we have conducted an experiment thermal decomposition of cellulose by constructing an experimental device that assumes the heterogeneous reaction in a fluidized bed gasifier. K_2CO_3 and Ca(OH)_2 that are compound of K and Ca contained in the biomass ash were selected as the catalysts. The amount of condensable products and heavy tar were decreased, also the amount of gaseous products were increased by installing K_2CO_3 and Ca(OH)_2 In heterogeneous reaction between tar and ash, K_2CO_3 and Ca(OH)_2 have the catalytic effect to decompose the tar, to enhance gaseous production.

  Recently the large amounts of waste fine coals are produced, which are difficult to be treated because of the high ash contents and inorganic sulfuric compounds. In order to make efficient use of waste fine coal, the retrieval technique is necessary for recovery of combustible contents from fine waste coals. Nowadays oil agglomeration process can deal with these problems. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of solution interface reaction on oil agglomeration in order to separate pyrite sulfur effectively from waste fine coal. During the high basic condition, pyrite sulfur reduction indicated high values since the pyrite surface became hydrophilic due to covering surface of pyrite sulfur by ferric hydroxide. As the results, we can remove pyrite under high basic condition, however decrease of coal cleaning efficiency occurred at this condition.

  Nowadays, the oil agglomeration processes have been developed for reducing and making beneficial use of waste fine coal from the mechanic coal mining and coal cleaning. In this study, we recovered the carbonaceous contents from waste fine coal based on an oil agglomeration process using vegetable oil. At same time, we improved reduction ratio of pyrite sulfur which is usually difficult to be separated during the oil agglomeration process. In this study, we adjusted pH of the solution of oil agglomeration from neutrality to basic, in order to separate pyrite sulfur effectively from waste fine coal under the basic condition. During the high basic condition, pyrite sulfur reduction indicated high values since the pyrite surface became hydrophilic. As the results, the pyrite contents will not be recovered together with hydrophobic carbonaceous contents. However, coal cleaning efficiency, especially combustible matter recovery decreased under high basic solution.

  From the viewpoint of effective utilization of carbon resources in waste materials, carbonizing technology process system has been implemented. In this study, we investigated carbonization of waste woody biomass and its char used as solid fuel. The waste woody biomass was loading to alkali metal as NaOH, using the thermogravimetry with a differential thermal analyzer (TG-DTA), while combustion experiment was carried out on char by the model combustor. On the other hand, combustion exhaust gases of char also evaluated. As a result, the Na loading has improved the combustion properties of char. However, we need to examine for incomplete combustion due to the ash increment.

  Nowadays, the oil agglomeration process has developed for reducing and making beneficial use of waste fine coal from the coal mechanic extraction and coal cleaning. In this study, we investigated coal cleaning efficiency based on oil agglomeration with three different grade coals. In order to investigate the precise effects of coal grade, ash contents in coal samples were removed by HC1 and HF acid digestion treatment procedure. Then, on oil agglomeration, we investigated recovery of coal and ratio of oil adhesion to coal. Moreover, from analysis of TG-DTA or DTG, combustive characteristics of each aggregate were searched. As the results, better coal recovery from the low grade coal can be easy to be achieved by oil agglomeration due to interaction of aliphatic low molecular weight compounds with oil aggregating agent. On the other hand, combustive characteristics of the high grade coal were improved, especially the activated energy descended.

  A study on CO_2 and steam gasification reactivity of Chinese waste coal-biomass briquette char (BB-char) has been approached out by addition of five catalytic metal components (K, Na, Ca, Mg and Fe) in the BB-char preparation. As the results, K, Na and Ca had higher catalytic effect than other metals, and Mg had the lowest catalytic effect within five metals. It is suggested that Chinese waste coal can be effectively converted into useful gas fuels if we choose the suitable biomass containing better catalytic metals during the BB preparation.

  We previously reported that the airborne fine allergenic particles of Japanese cedar pollen were high in concentration during sunny days after rainfall. In this study, we investigated the morphological change of Japanese cedar pollen grains due to the contact with raindrops, and the elution behavior of major pollen allergenic Cry j 1, based on the assumption that rainfall may promote the release of fine allergenic particles from airborne pollen grains.  The observation of raindrops showed that a great number of pollens were scavenged at the initial stage of precipitation and that many burst pollen grains were contained in the rainwater. Therefore, it was suspected that the fine allergenic particles included in fragment of cell wall and ingredients of pollen were released from the burst of pollen grains.  On the other hand, the elution of allergenic Cry j 1 was found to increase when the solution contained high concentrations of ionic species. Especially, elution of allergenic Cry j 1 was significantly increased when the pollens were soaked with a weak basic solution containing Ca2+ ion. It was also found that high ionic concentration and high pH values appeared in rainfall water during the rainfall after long range transportation events of Asian dust. Therefore, we think that one of the important factors for releasing fine allergenic particles is the contact with the rainfall which scavenged Asian dust experienced a long range transportation.

  In this study, we investigated if fossil fuel can be substituted by rice husk on a new combustor in the air vortex current. Because, suspended particulate matter in exhaust gases not only influence the global environment when released in the atmosphere but also influence on human health. Harmful substances emits from the rice husk combustion were evaluated by measuring the suspended particulate matter composition on the exhaust, and the reduction possibility of these harmful substances by controlling the combustion conditions was examined. Experimental show that the particulate concentrations can be reduced substantially by highly effective combustion with an improved combustor compared with a previous combustor.

  Recently, prevalence of Japanese cedar pollinosis has been increasing, and it is observed highly in the Kanto area of Japan. As a cause of the high prevalence in Kanto area, we focused attention on 3-nitrotyrosines contained in allergen protein that cause the immune reactions and enhance an immunogenicity of allergen proteins. In this study, we measured the size distribution of airborne Cry j 1 concentrations and the relative quantities of airborne Cry j 1 containing 3-nitrotyrosine; and evaluated an apoptosis inducibility of 3-nitrotyrosine for HeLa cell. Cry j 1 were highly observed as fine particles (≦1.1 µm) in the urban atmosphere of Saitama city, Japan. We succeeded for the first time in detecting Cry j 1 containing 3-nitrotyrosine in the urban atmosphere as the probable evidence of chemical modification of Cry j 1 by air pollutants. Cry j 1 that exists in the particle sizes smaller than 7.0 µm contained higher probabilities of 3-nitrotyrosine residues compared with Cry j 1 in the particle sizes larger than 7.0 µm. Moreover, we clarified that 3-nitrotyrosine induces HeLa cell (epidermoid cell) apoptosis. From these results, it is suggested that further investigations are needed for the behavior and health effect of Cry j 1 and Cry j 1 containing 3-nitrotyrosine in respirable particles.

  低品位の石炭をクリーンに利用するための技術として、石炭のバイオブリケット化技術がある。バイオブリケットは微粉状の石炭にバイオマスと消石灰を添加して圧縮成型した固体燃料であり、燃焼時のSO<SUB>2</SUB>ガスの排出を大幅に抑制できる。この燃料の燃焼後に排出される高アルカリ性燃焼灰は酸性土壌の改良材として利用可能である。本研究では、バイオブリケット燃焼灰による酸性土壌改良に肥料供給効果を加えるため、燃焼灰と豚糞堆肥の同時施用が作物成長と元素吸収に及ぼす効果をラボスケールのハツカダイコン栽培試験により評価した。同時施用区で栽培したハツカダイコンは化学肥料なしでも良好な成長が認められた。また、同時施用は燃焼灰や堆肥由来の潜在有害金属の土壌中への固定にも効果的であるようであり、家畜糞尿堆肥の施用時に問題とされる亜鉛や銅の作物体中への取り込みも低減できることが示された。これらのことから、バイオブリケットの燃焼副生成物である燃焼灰と畜産廃棄物である家畜糞尿堆肥を混用することで、化学肥料の使用を抑えた土壌生産性の改良が実現可能であることが示唆された。

  中国では，「改革・開放」政策を取り入れた1980年代以来，経済の高度成長が続いている。しかし，近年になって，地域間経済発展の不均衡がますます拡大し，沿岸部と内陸部との経済格差が広がってきた。先進国と発展途上国の経済発展のギャップは「南北問題」と表現されているが，中国国内でも，地域間において「南北問題」と言われるほど経済発展のレベルには大きな格差がみられる。一方，環境汚染問題もそれに伴い地域間の格差が日増しに顕在化し，国際間における汚染産業移転説と同様に，中国国内においても汚染産業の沿岸部から内陸部への移転と推定される現象が現れている。本論文では，SO<SUB>2</SUB>，COD，工業固形廃棄物などの排出量の変遷を環境指標とし，1981年から2005年までのそれらの統計データを用いた地域別の環境クズネッツ曲線の分析を通じて中国の沿岸部と内陸部の経済発展と環境負荷の関係を比較考察した。その結果として工業固形廃棄物の分析において見られるように，沿岸部はより厳しい環境規制を実施することで，工業固形廃棄物の内陸部への移転を促す副作用をもたらしたと考えられる。また，その裏づけとして地域間の経済発展の格差により，それぞれの地域の環境政策の選択にも影響を及ぼしていたことが分かった。こうした地域間経済発展のアンバランスは地域間の環境格差を産むだけでなく，国全体の環境悪化につながる恐れがあることを示唆した。

  都市大気汚染問題は古くて新しい課題である。多くの先進国の都市が経済発展の過程で二酸化硫黄等による厳しい大気汚染を経験してそれらの汚染物質排出量が顕著に削減されていったが，近年自動車による都市交通量の増加で窒素酸化物等による新しい都市大気汚染が問題になっている。一方，発展途上国は急速な都市化で短期間の間に先進国が今まで経験した様々な大気環境問題に対処しなければならなくなっている。発展途上国が経済発展をさせながら都市大気環境を同時に改善しうる可能性を見出すために，先進国の都市大気環境の汚染対策史からどのような汚染対策を学ぶべきかという立場から，本稿では環境クズネッツ曲線を用いて大気汚染物質である二酸化硫黄と二酸化窒素を中心に，2008年のオリンピック開催地の中国北京の大気汚染対策と戦略に注目し，オリンピック開催経験のある先進国の都市との比較を試みた。その結果，各都市では二酸化硫黄対策では環境クズネッツ曲線の変化が見られたが，二酸化窒素の場合，先進国では対策の取り遅れのため低減傾向が見られなかった。一方，後発的な都市である北京では，先進国で実施中の対策を早い段階で取り入れたことによると推定される削減効果が見られた。これらの結果は，環境クズネッツ曲線が当てはまるという確証は得られなかったが，それを前提とする解析では，発展途上国は先進国の経験から学び，先進国で現在実施中のより効果的な環境対策を積極的に実施することによって早い段階で環境改善の方向に向かうことができるという可能性を示唆していた。

  本研究では、実験室での燃焼実験において、中国重慶市の石炭利用家庭で使用されている家庭用ストーブの燃廃条件、特に固体表面の燃焼温度を模擬し、4種類のバイオブリケットの硫黄固定効果を検証した。特に、バイオブリケットの硫黄固定率と硫黄の排出挙動、及び燃焼灰の組成に対する燃焼温度の影響について調査した。実験室での燃焼実験により、これまでの研究で想定されてきた燃焼温度800℃におけるバイオブリケット(Ca/S=2)の硫黄固定率は88-96%と高いことを確認した。一方、家庭用ストーブで観測された燃焼温度1000℃に設定した際の硫黄固定率は33-71%となり、800℃と比較して26-63%減少した。この結果は、燃焼温度1000℃までの昇温過程において、チャー燃焼段階の燃焼温度850℃以上で硫黄の排出が確認されたこと、並びにバイオブリケット燃焼灰の組成のメインピークがCaSO_4からCa_2Al(AlSiO_7)へと変化したことから、固定された硫黄化合物CaSO_4の熱分解に起因することが明らかとなった。また、800℃の条件での硫黄固定率に対する1000℃の条件での硫黄固定率の減少率は、バイオブリケットの種類により変化したことから、原料となる石炭の種類に依存することが示された。特に、石炭の発熱量と灰分含有率、及び鉱物組成が重要な因子となることが示唆された。硫黄の排出抑制の観点から、バイオブリケットは家庭用、もしくは工業用といったように、用途別に石炭の種類を選択する必要性が示唆された。また、選択時の指標として、石炭の発熱量、灰分含有率、そして灰分中の鉱物組成が指標となり得る可能性が見出された。

  In this study, we focus on the investigation of the airborne behavior of respirable particulate matters containing Japanese cedar pollen allergen Cry j 1 exfoliated from the Ubisch bodies on the pollen surfaces and Cry j 2 comprised in the starch granules within the pollen. The airborne Japanese cedar pollens were counted, and at the same time, the Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 particles were collected and determined in different particle sizes at the urban site (Cooperative Research Center of Saitama University) during daily sampling periods of the most severe pollination season of FY 2005 in Saitama, Japan.<BR>Morphological observation of Ubisch bodies exfoliated from pollen and ruptured pollens was performed with a scanning electron microscope. Moreover, the existing evidences of visualized Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 allergen particles below 1.1μm were also sensitively found by an immunofluorescence technique with a fluorescence microscope. Simultaneously, the high concentrations of Cry j 1 and/or Cry j 2 were determined in the fine particle sizes below 1.1μm. It was suggested that airborne respirable particulate matters containing Cry j 1 and Cry j 2 play a key role in the increasing incidence of asthma in the lower respiratory tract. Furthermore, although the release mechanisms of Cry j 1 and a Cry j 2 particles may be differed, the daily variation delays in the peaks of Cry j 1 (or Cry j 2) concentrations compared to the peaks of airborne pollen counts were observed since the fine particles were suspended in the atmosphere over a longer period of time after released. It is important to observe and determine the size distribution of airborne Japanese cedar pollen allergen particles in the long-term sampling research continually, and to elucidate the allergen particle release mechanisms. In the future, we should investigate the chemical, physical and biomedical combination effects on Japanese cedar pollen allergens, and have to consider proposing a new forecast informational system of the Japanese cedar pollen and their allergen particle variations.

  In this study, we have collected Japanese cedar pollen from the roadside of two urban residential zones and a high place (about 35 m) of Saitama City during the pollination period in 2009. For the purpose of analyzing the airborne cedar pollen vertical distribution, I observed it both at roadside and 35m high place during the cedar pollen airborne period. Then, Japanese cedar pollen allergen was increased at sunny days after rainfall in atmosphere. We thought that there are more few pollen counts of the high altitude than road edge, but, the experiment result is showed that the pollen count of the high altitude is different from road edge for two days, and more than roadside. High affected possibility is thought about by this experiment result. Therefore, it is supposed that crustal particles (Kosa) and rainfall may be increased eluted rate of allergen contents and lead to release and transit them to fine particles. Fine particles were more suspended than coarse particle (such as pollen). Therefore, It will be thought that we need the vertical distribution investigation not only pollen counts but also allergen concentrations according to the altitude in future.

  In order to understand the behavior of fine particles (FP; less than 2.5 μm) in the atmosphere, a better characterization and measurement of their components in equilibrium with their corresponding gaseous compounds are necessary. We focused on a little studied chemical composition of size-resolved suburban aerosol and its diurnal variation. From 28 July to 11 August 2008, we measured high-time resolved aerosol composition with an aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) at Saitama city, a suburban area of Tokyo. Equilibrium of gaseous nitric acid with particulate nitrate was evaluated using an annular denuder and filter pack (AD-FP) system with a time resolution of 3 hours for the AD-FP. Sulfate and organics were the major components of non-refractory aerosols (NR-PM1), while nitrate and chloride concentrations were relatively low. Size distributions of sulfate, ammonium, and organics showed mainly unimodal characteristics, suggesting internally mixed aerosol.Nonetheless organics showed bimodal characteristics in the rush hours or stagnant condition. Sulfate and oxygenated organic aerosols (OOA) increased mainly in the daytime along with transportation of air masses from polluted areas, however, OOA increased mainly under stagnant conditions. These results showed an important effect with the polluted air mass transported from urban areas in addition to the local effect on suburban aerosols.

  This study is focused on carbonization of urban organic solid wastes such as thinned wood waste, construction wood waste, chicken litter and cow litter generated combustible gases used for recovery energy, to investigate the proper conditions such as carbonization temperature under the differently high rates and the possibility of solid fuel utilization. Therefore, using the thermogravimetry with a differential thermal analyzer (TG-DTA), the detail experiments on the effects of the produced carbide (char) under CO2 or N2 atmosphere during different temperatures were performed at the different hearting rates (10℃min-1, 90℃min-1). It was found that these conditions may change the reactivity of produced carbide and their calorific values. The reactivity assessment such as ignition temperature, surface areas and calorific value of the carbide were also carried out together with the combustion experiments.

  Atmospheric aerosols are important for their effects on global climate change and human health. Volatile organic compounds emitted from mobile and natural sources into the atmosphere change through photochemical reactions into lower vapor pressure compounds, these compounds condense and produce aerosol. In this study, formation of secondary organic aerosol from toluene (as anthropogenic VOC) and isoprene (as biogenic VOC) was investigated using a 2.1 m3 smog chamber. In order to elucidate the effect of relative humidity on generated aerosol growth, toluene and mixtures of it and isoprene were irradiated for 6 hours. These results for photochemical reaction suggest that the relative humidity affects on the composition and growth of secondary generated organic aerosols.

  In this study, to shorten gasification reaction time of waste coal-biomass briquette, different sizes of mixing biomass in making waste coal-biomass briquette were used. After the pyrolysis, the gasification experiment was conducted with waste coal-biomass briquette char under the temperature of 900℃ and H_2O/Ar mixture gas. As a result, gasification reaction time of waste coal-biomass briquette char was shorter. It was assumed that ash contents in biomass worked as the gasification catalysts were dispersed, and also specific surface area was increased in the char.

  Coal gasification technology that can converse coal to gas fuels is one method of the clean coal technologies. In our study, it was suggested that gasification can be applicable to the utilization of waste coals. As well, when waste coals are used gasification technology in combination with coal-biomass briquette (BB) technology, conversion time of waste coal to gas fuel is shorter. However, gas fuels changed from waste coal-biomass briquette have low calorific values, considering in energy, it is necessary that gasification reaction time of waste coal-biomass briquette should be shorter and more effective.In this study, to shorten gasification reaction time of waste coal-biomass briquette, mixing biomass sizes in making waste coal-biomass briquette was micrified. The gasification experiments were conducted with waste coal-biomass briquette under the conditions that experimental temperature was 900 ℃, and used 300 ml･min-1 of 45 % water steam in Ar gas, after the pyrolysis experiments. As a result, gasification reaction time of waste coal-biomass briquette was shorter. It was assumed that alkali metals and alkali earth metals (AAEM) in biomass worked as the gasification catalysts were dispersed and specific surface areas were increased.

  In coal gasification, it is one of the problems to sub-generated tar. To solve this trouble, we focus attention on that major components of ash contain calcium oxide (CaO) that is known as catalyst can decompose tar, and thought whether the tar was able to be decreased by using the ash in gasification furnace. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate reactions between tar and ash during coal gasification, and to estimate effect of tar decrease by ash.In this study, toluene, CaO, and Carbide from phenol resin was selected as the model tar, model ash, and model carbon, respectively. Experiments were carried out by passing toluene to CaO in flow fixed-bed reactor under increasing temperature (25～900 ℃, 10 ℃/min), and under constant temperature (700 ℃ and 900 ℃) for 5 h. As a result, it is turn out that CaO is effective to decreasing toluene. The rate constant when toluene decompose with CaO is about 58 times as large as rate constant when toluene decompose without CaO at 700 ℃, is about 30 times at 900 ℃. Also, although model carbon didn't affect toluene conversion, when toluene decompose with CaO combined model carbon, benzene yield is decreased from it when toluene decompose with nothing.

  The utilization system of intermediates carbonized from urban organic solid wastes such as thinned wood waste, construction wood waste, chicken litter and cow litter was studied. Using the thermogravimetry with the differential thermal analysis, the effects of the produced carbides (char), under CO2 condition at different temperatures, and/or the different rates of temperature (10 and 90 ℃ min-1) in the system were performed. The activity assessment, ignition temperature, surface areas and calorific value of the carbides were also carried out together with the combustion experiments. It was found that these conditions may increase the processing efficincy of the wastes accompanied by the change in the activity of produced carbides and their calorific values.

  本研究では、炭化処理における昇温速度が、廃棄物の減量化および安定化に及ぼす影響を調査し、減量化評価を熱重量測定によって行い、安定化評価を腐敗性炭素量の指標である易分解性炭素量の測定によって行った。さらに、炭化生成物の燃料利用を考慮し、その燃焼特性を調査するため、着火温度による評価も行った。廃木材、鶏糞の高速昇温（90℃/min）による炭化処理は、最終温度が同じであれば低速昇温（10℃/min）と同程度の減量化、安定化の効果が得られることが確認でき、処理速度の向上が図れることが示唆された。さらに炭化物の燃料利用に関しても、有機分の多い廃棄物の高速昇温による処理は、より燃焼反応性の高い炭化物が得られる点で有利であることが示唆された。

  In this study, a vegetable oil agglomeration process was performed for coal combustible matter recovery from Chinese waste fine coal as compared with the conventional mineral oil agglomeration. Consequently, the coal agglomerated product of high combustibility containing lower ash and lower inorganic sulfur contents was separated from its original waste fine coal. Moreover, it was found that the higher combustible matter recovery by the vegetable oil agglomeration using such as soybean oil and colza oil can be achieved comparing with the mineral oil agglomeration. The availability of the vegetable oil agglomeration as a coal cleaning process for the combustible matter recovery from its original waste fine coal was also suggested.

  In this study, it was approached for investigation of the char and ash contents influencing on tar conversion in gasification for coal-biomass briquette (BB). The phenol resin charcoal was made as a model component for carbon in char, toluene was applied as a model compound of tar, and the metal oxide such as CaO was used as a model compound of the ash content. The char or ash samples were installed and loaded in the fixed bed stainless steel tube reactor, and then toluene was circulated. As the result, the behavior of the char and ash contents on tar conversion in the heterogeneous reaction was evaluated, and the decomposition products of the tar by the char and ash contents was investigated and analyzed.

  In this study, coal-biomass briquettes (BB) made by mixing waste coal and larch bark with Ca(OH)_2 as a sulfur fixation agent were pyrolyzed until 1173K in the inert atmosphere, and the obtained char samples were gasified under a stable steam generation at 1173K. As the result, an increased tendency of BB gasification was found with increment of the additive biomass. At the same time, total calorific values of produced gases are highly increased with the comparison of those produced from gasification of its original waste coal.

  H_2S evolution in the pyrolysis and the steam gasification process of a Nan Tong Chinese bituminous coal and its biobriquette was investigated. When Ca(OH)_2 as desulfurization agent was added, the H_2S evolution of biobriquette was effectively suppressed in the pyrolysis process. However, the H_2S evolution increased again in the gasification later stage. This is for following reaction (CaS+H_2O=CaO+H_2S). H_2S and CO_2 in the produced gas was effectively removed by a gyratory flow treatment using Ca(OH)_2 suspended liquid.

  バイオフリケットは,低品位石炭,バイオマス,および硫黄固定剤を混合,高圧成型した造粒物の一種であり,低品位石炭の代替燃料として利用することにより,優れた脱硫効果を有するため,中国の酸性雨地域での民生用燃料としての利用性が高い。このような酸性雨地域においては土壌酸性化による植物生長への影響が懸念されている。本研究では,バイオブリケットの燃焼灰が高いアルカリ性を有していることから,酸性土壌の改良材としての有効利用性を評価するために,燃焼灰を添加した酸性土壌を用いて栽培試験を行った。燃焼灰の無添加土壌での栽培植物に対し,燃焼灰添加土壌での栽培植物は乾重量,長さが増加し,植物生長が促進されることが明らかになった。これは燃焼灰添加による酸性土壌の中和効果および燃焼灰に含まれ栄養金属であるカルシウムの供給に起因するものと推定された。さらに,アルミニウムなどの植物生長に有害な金属成分の植物への取り込み量が抑制されていることが示唆された。これらの結果から,バイオブリケットの燃焼灰が酸性土壌の改良材として有効であることが明らかとなった。

  Coal-biomass briquette (BB) that can efficiently fix S02 from combustion of low grade raw coal and pulverized waste coal was developed. And it was effort to investigate, possibility of BB technology as a prevention measure of acid rain, based on combustion test, performance test and diffusion model concept intended for region of southwest, northeast, inland and northern city of China. From this possibility test, it was obvious that we can not only get revenue, but also reuse waste coal, and reduce particulate matter and S02 if we construct BB factory which can has annual total production amounts of more than 100,000 tons. And from economic estimation, it calculated product cost 130- 250 yuan (ca. equivalent of 1,750- 3,400 yen) per ton of BB which was comparable to commercial high grade coal. But variety and distribution of biomass depend on region characteristic, and transfer cost also is an impact factor. In future, we should considerate continuously technique transference and the method of prevalence and enlightenment, and it will be expected that Japan-ehina cooperative research that aims to realize the model concept, reap a rich harvest.

Results under identical gasification conditions showed the followings: (1) Biobriquette chars had larger reaction rates than the corresponding coal chars used for comparison. When Ca(OH)_2 as desulfurization agent was added, the reactivities of biobriquette chars were further enhanced to the same level of that for brown coal. (2) Increase of the rate in the presence of biomass and by addition of Ca(OH)_2 can be explained by such a situation that the portion of biomass would be preferentially gasified, thereby the contact area between unreacted coal char and steam could be increased and by combined catalytic effect of inherent biomass ash and calcium component, respectively. (3) For the composition of gases evolved, it depended on the ratio of coal/biomass in weight, gasification temperature, and the partial pressure of steam, indicating the controllability of H_2/CO ratio by selecting these operating factors.

  バイオブリケットは70〜85%の石炭と15〜30%のバイオマスとの混合物に硫黄固定剤を添加して, 何らの粘結剤を添加せずにロール型プレスによって高圧で圧縮成型し, 調製される複合固体燃料である。本研究の調査結果によれば, 重慶地域における農作物の藁や茎の廃棄物および大鋸屑などの木材廃棄物は極めて豊富であり, バイオブリケット生産の副原料であるバイオマスとしての年間総生産量は1,800万トンに達しており, わずかにその5%を使用すれば, 年間36万トン程度のバイオブリケットが生産でき, 民生用エネルギーとして十分であると考えられる。従って, 重慶の酸性雨汚染防止対策の一つとして, 民生用バイオブリケットの製造技術を行う場合の副原料であるバイオマス原料はかなり豊富であるといえる。重慶市で採集された農産廃棄物, 木材廃棄物および食品製造廃棄物の燃焼試験の結果は, バイオマスの種類によってその燃焼性硫黄分は異なるが, いずれも少なかった。バイオマス燃焼からのHCl, SO_2の排出量は少なく, 1kg当たりの排出量はそれぞれ35〜912と52〜1764mgの範囲であった。原炭と大鋸屑から調製したバイオブリケットの燃焼試験の結果によれば, 原炭と比較してバイオブリケット燃焼からの大気汚染物質排出量は大幅に低減され, HCl, SO_2およびダストの排出低減率もそれぞれ26〜61%, 82〜87%と55〜83%に達していた。したがって, 石炭のバイオブリケット化は有効な酸性雨汚染防止対策の一つと考えられる。バイオブリケットは, 原炭に比べて揮発分を多く含むバイオマスを添加するため, 着火温度が低下し, 燃焼性が向上する。バイオマスに含まれるリグニン等が粘結剤(バインダ)として機能すると考えられるが, 12.1〜35.1%のリグニンを含むバイオマスを添加して調整したバイオブリケットの耐圧強度は石炭種類, バイオマスの添加量, バイオマス中のリグニン含有量によって異なるが, 25%の農林廃棄物添加のバイオブリケットは通常の取り扱いに必要な40kg以上の耐圧強度に達していた。よって, バイオブリケットの副原料としてリグニン含有量の多いバイオマスを用いれば, 特別な粘結剤を添加しなくても強度の高いブリケットが製造できる。

  In China, the large amount of sulfur dioxide and dust discharged from the combustion of low-grade raw coal causes severe air pollution and acid rain. Therefore, the need to control the emission of such pollutants is urgent. It is well known that wet coal-cleaning technology is used to prepare clean coal from low-grade raw coal containing large amounts of sulfur and ash. However, this technology is not used in areas where water is scarce or severely polluted, because of the high cost of treating the wastewater. In an attempt to overcome this limitation, we studied an integrated technology, which combines dry coal-cleaning and bio-briquetting technologies, to prepare clean coal from low-grade raw coal. In the dry coal-cleaning method, refined coal was separated from ash and other minerals containing inorganic sulfur as pyrite by means of the differences in their electrostatic character. Most of the sulfur left in the refined coal was organic sulfur. The residual ash was fixed in combustion ashes of bio-briquettes made from coal, biomass, and slaked lime (Ca/S mole ratio =2) under pressure. By combining these two technologies, we were able to decrease the emission of sulfur dioxide and ash by 70-90 % compared to the combustion of raw coal.

  In order to utilize low-grade coals, which contain high concentrations of sulfur (2-6 wt. %) and ash (>15 wt. %, dry basis), controlling pollutant emissions during combustion in domestic stoves and small-capacity industrial boilers, a composite solid fuel "coal-biomass briquette" with sulfur fixation function was produced in a pilot plant in Chongqing city, China. It was composed of 80 wt. % of low-grade coal and 20 wt. % of biomass (<I>e. g.</I>, wood chips and agricultural wastes) with a small fraction of sulfur-fixation additives. In this study, we investigated the ignition and combustion characteristics of the coal-biomass briquettes, and developed a new sulfur fixation additive made from sub-product in gas welding industries. It was found that the coal-biomass briquette has the lower ignition temperature and higher combustion efficiency than the usual coal briquettes, and that the newly developed additive was superior to limestone or scallop shells in sulfur fixation capability. This method is simple, economical, and efficient, in terms of emission control of SO<SUB>2</SUB>, CO and other particulate pollutants from the combustion of low-grade coals using the conventional domestic stoves and boilers without modification. The coal-biomass briquette can be applicable for pollution control of coal combustion in some developing countries.

  Air pollution in all regions of China is recognized as smoke pollution type. Coal combustion is the largest source of artificial particulate matter in the atmosphere. Especially, acidic aerosols could cause acidic precipitation with air pollution. The influence of acidic precipitation is continuously increasing in China. Therefore, we are studying a coal-biomass briquette technique as an effective control technique to reduce sulfur dioxide and other pollutants released from coal combustion. In order to understand the reduction of particulate matter and acidic aerosol emission with the bio-briquette technique, the acidity and the acid-neutralizing capacity of aerosols released from raw coal and bio-briquette combustion were measured. This study showed that H<SUP>+</SUP> concentration in aerosols from bio-briquette combustion is reduced by 43∼85 % compared to the raw-coal combustion, and HCl, SO<SUB>2</SUB> and dust emissions are also reduced by 26∼61, 82∼87 and 55∼83 %, respectively. It is concluded that bio-briquette technique not only reduces the pollutants emitted from coal combustion, but also lowers the acidity of particulate matter released from it.

  中国西南部の重慶市では石炭の消費量が極めて多く,かつ,石炭中の硫黄分の含有率が高いため,中国で最も厳しい大気汚染や酸性雨が発生している。しかも,脱硫装置がほとんど設置されていないため,石炭燃焼により排出された大気汚染と酸性雨の原因物質である高濃度のS0_2は,大気拡散の不利な気象条件の下で,低層大気中に蓄積している。そのため,石炭燃焼からのS0_2排出抑制は極めて重要となっている。本研究では,硫黄含有率の高い低品位石炭のバイオブリケット化によるS0_2排出抑制の効果についてモデル燃焼実験より検討した。約800℃における燃焼実験では,硫黄含有率の高い石炭にバイオマスと消石灰を添加して調製したバイオブリケットのS0_2固定率は高く,82〜95%に達していた。特に,洗炭と比較して,S0_2の排出抑制効果は石炭のバイオブリケット化の方がかなり高かった。本研究の結果から,バイオブリケット化は民生および中小ボイラ用燃料からのS0_2排出抑制対策として適用可能であり,バイオブリケット生産技術は重慶市で効果的に利用できると考えられる。

  In early winter season, severe air pollution due to suspended particulate matter occurs frequently at South-Kanto Plain. During such episodes observed on November 26 and 27, and December 6 and 7 in 1991, intensive field observations were conducted in order to investigate the behavior and source of atmospheric particulate chlorides. Although very high concentrations of TSP, SPM<SUB>2.4</SUB> (fine particles less than 2.4 μm) and chlorides were observed, very low level of seasalt chlorides were found. Thus, most of the total chlorides in suspended particulate matter were non-seasalt chlorides existing in fine particles less than 2.4 μm collected at Kanda or Urawa. The result of high correlations (significance levels higher than 99%) between [Cl<SUP>-</SUP>]nss and [K<SUP>+</SUP>] or [Cl<SUP>-</SUP>]nss and [Zn] calculated for SPM<SUB>2.4</SUB>, shows the evidence that high level of non-seasalt chlorides was the secondary products of HCl emitted from refuse incineration and/or biomass burning under the stagnation with low temperature and high relative humidity of lower layer in early winter.

  In order to reveal compositional differences between airborne road dust and airborne soil particles and to evaluate their local emissions in the early wintertime, the determination of geological profiles becomes a crucial and essential work. In this study, road dust and soil particles collected at the 7 sites of southern Kanto plain were prepared for the chemical analyses of apparent elemental carbon (Cae), apparent organic carbon (Cao), carbonate (CO<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2-</SUP>), elements and water soluble ions. Though the main components, Al, Fe, Mg, Na, Ti and K, were at the same levels of road dust with these of soil particles,the concentrations of Cae, Cao, Ca and CO<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2-</SUP> in the road dust samples were observed about one order higher than those in the soil samples. Cae, Cao, Ca and CO<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2-</SUP> can be the better indicators used for separating the contribution of road dust from soil particles with the Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) method. As the equivalent ratios of [Ca<SUP>2+</SUP>] / [CO<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2-</SUP>] for road dust samples were near 1.0, but ones for soil samples were about 10. Thus, the most of Ca<SUP>2+</SUP> and CO<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2-</SUP> in road dust are probably existing as a form of CaCO<SUB>3</SUB> particle which has neutralizing effect on ambient aerosol acidity as a major alkaline component. A satisfied explanation for spatial differences and diurnal variations of ambient aerosol acidity (H<SUP>+</SUP>) was given using the CMB results in this study.

  1990年の初冬に南関東地域で大気エアロゾル試料を捕集した。気圧の谷の接近,逆転層などの停滞した大気条件に伴う高濃度大気汚染と酸性エアロゾルの経時変化を調べた。都市部のエアロゾルの高い中和能に対して,近郊ならびに田園地域ではより高いエアロゾル酸性度が見出された。さらに,化学質量収支法(CMB)の解析により,淀み域外での総浮遊粒子状物質(TSP)の濃度は低く,土壌起源からの高い寄与を示したが,淀み域内の地域でのTSP濃度は著しく高く,人為起源の影響を強く受けていた。停滞した大気条件およびTSPの30%程度に相当する二次生成アンモニウム塩粒子(NH<SUB>4</SUB>Cl,NH<SUB>4</SUB>NO<SUB>3</SUB>と(NH<SUB>4</SUB>)<SUB>2</SUB>SO<SUB>4</SUB>等)を含む人為的発生源の高負荷が,高い大気エアロゾル酸性度を導いていた。

  花粉・アレルゲン飛散について、汚染化学種の花粉表面への吸着、アレンゲン性の増悪、花粉粒の損傷、アレルゲンの微小粒径への移行について検討した。特に、大気中の降水サンプリングの結果から、スギ花粉は降水中に多くが捕捉されること、スギ花粉は降水中で破裂に伴うアレルゲンの放出や細胞壁に局在するアレルゲンの微小粒子化に関する知見が得られた。黄砂飛来時降水との接触によってスギ花粉からアレルゲンが溶出し、降水後の晴天時において、微小領域に存在するスギ花粉アレルゲン含有粒子へ寄与している可能性が示唆された。さらに、花粉アレルゲンのニトロ化、HeLa細胞のアポトーシスの誘導から、人体への健康影響が懸念されている。

  本研究では、都市部で飛散・浮遊している花粉自体の物理的破壊による微粒子化(特に粒径<1.0μm)、大気汚染物質の沈着、それによる化学的変質等の影響について花粉飛散時期のサンプリングとモデル実験で解明し、花粉アレルゲンと人体呼吸器官の各部位に沈着する大気汚染物質の特定、都市部における花粉アレルゲンーディーゼル排出微粒子(DEP)を含む大気汚染化学物質による花粉症罹患への複合影響の相乗効果を科学的に解析し、免疫学的研究による生体影響評価手法の改善や、大気汚染状況・花粉アレルゲン情報化システムの構築にも貢献しようとしている。
  埼玉県都市部と山岳地の大気浮遊粒子状汚染物質濃度とスギ花粉を含むスギ雄花の定量分析や、ガス状汚染物質暴露実験により、その沈着影響について評価した。地殻成分(Al,Fe,Ti)に関しては、強風により巻き上げられた地殻粒子や自動車等の走行による道路粉塵が都市部のスギ花粉を含むスギ雄花に沈着している事が示された。また、都市部のスギ花粉は山岳地のものより粒子状NO^-_3,SO^<2->_4,NH^+_4やガス状NOx,SO_2,NH_3が沈着していた事が分かった。上記の大気汚染物質が沈着したスギ花粉が、花粉症の症状に悪影響を及ぼす事が懸念され、これらの複合的な生体影響評価研究の改善の必要性を示唆した。
  さらに、2004年から2007年のスギ花粉飛散期において、大気中に飛散したスギ花粉を捕集し、花粉本体からのアレルゲン含有粒子の放出を確認・検証するため、花粉表面からのユービッシュ小体の剥離や破裂などの形態変化の観察(走査型電子顕微鏡および免疫蛍光抗体顕微鏡法による観察)を行った。スギ花粉アレルゲンであるCryj1およびCryj2に着目し、それらの濃度を測定し、かつ粒径分布を把握することで、花粉本体よりも人体への健康影響がさらに懸念されている微小な(1.1μm以下の下気道へ侵入可能な)粒径に存在するCryj1およびCryj2を含む大気浮遊粒子状物質の時系列的な飛散挙動を調査し、その実態の評価を行った。

  (1)統計干渉法によりアカマツ実生苗に外性菌根菌を感染させた実生苗と非感染実生苗について、ナノメーターレベルで根の成長部を計測、比較した。その結果、感染苗の方が非感染のものより、速い成長速度が得られ、統計干渉法の有効性が示唆された。
  (2)バイオブリケット(BB)燃焼灰と有機堆肥(豚糞尿堆肥)の同時施用により,二十日大根の成長試験を行い、燃焼灰と化成肥料の同時施用と同程度の生育が観測された。
  (3)長期栽培後の作物収穫物中金属含有量の解析・評価:大型グロースチャンバーを用いて二十日大根栽培試験後の収穫物中金属含有量を比較した。その結果、BB燃焼灰と豚糞尿堆肥を同時施用した場合は、BB燃焼灰と化成肥料を同時施用した場合に比較して、重金属含有量が低かった。
  (4)低品位石炭のBB化とその燃焼灰・有機堆肥の同時施用による環境改善効果の総合評価:BB燃焼灰と堆肥由来の重金属汚染も、燃焼灰による土壌pH矯正と堆肥のキレート作用によって抑制され、堆肥からの栄養塩供給により成長促進が観察され、燃焼灰と堆肥の同時施用による有効性を明確に示すことができた。
  (5)上記の結果は、酸性雨や大気汚染による被害を受けている発展途上国の農村・中小地方都市地域において、民生用ならびに中小工場における燃料としてのBBの利用ならびに酸性土壌地域での二十日大根栽培における燃焼灰と有機堆肥の同時施用は、二酸化硫黄関連の大気汚染・酸性雨の抑制、酸性土壌の改善、栄養塩の供給により高い商品価値を持つ農産物の生産が可能であることを示している。よって、農村や地方都市における民生用ならびに中小工場用燃料としての低品位石炭のBB化・利用は廃棄物を発生させない、地域循環型環境保全対策としての普及可能性は高い
  (6)上記の研究成果をまとめ、報告書を作成した。今後は、発展途上国の農村や地方都市を対象に民生用ならびに中小工場用燃料としての低品位石炭のBB化の普及策を検討して行く。

  本研究では、中国の石炭産出に伴って発生する廃棄石炭(石炭の採掘・選炭する際に、高灰分、高硫黄分、低発熱量であることから利用性が乏しくて廃棄される石炭)の有効利用化を目的とし、廃棄石炭にバイオマスを添加・成形し、バイオブリケット化した廃棄石炭からの固形燃料(廃棄石炭利用BB)として製作した。その性能評価、並びに廃棄石炭利用BBをガス化することにより有用なガス燃料に転換した際の、基礎調査を行った。その結果、廃棄石炭利用BBは従来のBBと同様に、中国国内輸送に耐えうる耐圧強度、中国国内の民生利用に可能な発熱量、高い燃焼反応性、硫黄酸化物の排出抑制などの知見が得られた。また、廃棄石炭は原価が安いために、作製された廃棄石炭利用BBは従来のBBよりも低価格で市場に提供することができ、固形燃料としての現地普及性が高いことも考えられた。さらに、廃棄石炭利用BBをガス燃料に転換した際の基礎的な知見として、廃棄石炭単独のガス化に比べ、ガス化反応性の向上、硫化水素の排出抑制、生成ガス発熱量の増加などの成果が得られた。これらは、バイオマスを添加することによる表面積および炭素分の増加、バイオマス中金属分(K、Na、Ca成分)の触媒効果、また、消石灰の添加による硫黄固定効果などによるものだと理解できる。同時に、廃棄石炭利用BBを作製する際の成型圧力を適切に上昇させることにより、廃棄石炭利用BB中の炭素分と金属分の接触性が改善され、ガス化の反応性が向上されることも明らかにされ、廃棄石炭利用BBのガス化により、廃棄石炭からクリーンガス燃料に転換する可能性が示唆された。これらの研究成果は、廃棄石炭BBの固形燃料およびガス燃料として利用できる可能性を示唆し、廃棄石炭の品質改善によって再資源化され、その有効利用技術につながると考えられる。
