One of the goals of research on indoor air quality is the reduction of human exposure due to the dispersion of hazardous airborne materials. The purpose of this study is to analyse, by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the flow and the concentration patterns of floor-emitted pollutants inside a real, mechanically ventilated office of simple geometry. The simulation results show complex airflow and high heterogeneity of concentration distribution. Another objective of the study is to examine how alternative ventilation scenarios (vents' position and flow strength) could affect the human exposure in the same office. Furthermore, additional simulations and sensitivity tests are performed in order to discuss CFD reliability issues. Studies like this contribute to the determination of the parameters that influence the modelling results and prepare the ground for improved and more reliable future simulations of indoor pollutant dispersion.
室内空气质量研究的目标之一是减少由于有害空气传播物质的扩散而导致的人体暴露。本研究的目的是利用计算流体动力学(CFD)分析一个真实的、简单几何形状的机械通风办公室内地板排放污染物的流动和浓度模式。模拟结果表明气流复杂,浓度分布不均一性强。该研究的另一个目的是研究不同的通风方案(通风口的位置和气流强度)如何影响同一办公室的人体暴露。此外,还进行了额外的模拟和灵敏度测试,以讨论CFD的可靠性问题。这样的研究有助于确定影响模拟结果的参数,并为今后改进和更可靠的室内污染物扩散模拟奠定基础。

We present an analytical solution that considers time dependence in the wind profile and the eddy diffusivity. The solution accepts any profiles of wind and eddy coefficient diffusions in a limited planetary boundary layer. The solution is based on the idea of a decomposition method upon expanding the pollutant concentration in a truncated series. This produces a set of recursive equations whose solutions are known. Each equation of this set is solved by the generalised integral Laplace transform technique (GILTT) method. The solution's ability to represent real situations was checked, comparing model predictions with the over-land along-wind dispersion (OLAD) experimental dataset.
我们提出了一个考虑风廓线和涡旋扩散率时间依赖性的解析解。该解决方案接受在一个有限的行星边界层中的任何风和涡系数扩散剖面。该解决方案是基于在截断序列中扩展污染物浓度的分解方法的思想。这就产生了一组解已知的递归方程。用广义积分拉普拉斯变换(GILTT)方法求解了该集合的每一个方程。通过将模型预测与陆上风向分散(OLAD)实验数据集进行比较,验证了该解决方案代表真实情况的能力。

Dispersion of pollutants emitted from vehicles over urban areas largely affects pedestrian-level air quality. In this study, turbulent dispersion of reactive pollutants in the ABL over hypothetical urban areas in the form of idealised street canyons is investigated using large-eddy simulation (LES). Nitric oxide (NO) is emitted from the first street canyon into the urban ABL doped with ozone (O3). First of all, we make use of the advection-diffusion equation with chemical kinetics to derive the theoretical relation between the dispersion coefficients of tracer and reactive pollutants. Next, the source depletion analogy is used to determine the plume shape instead of the conventional Gaussian plume model. Finally, regression to the LES output unveils that the vertical dimensionless NO concentration profiles exhibit self-similarity for a range of background O3 concentrations. A new parameterisation of reactive plume dispersion over urban areas, whose performance is remarkable over the mean plume rise, is thus suggested.
车辆排放的污染物在城市地区的扩散在很大程度上影响了行人水平的空气质量。在这项研究中,使用大涡模拟(LES)研究了ABL中活性污染物在假设城市地区以理想化街道峡谷形式的湍流扩散。一氧化氮(NO)从第一个街道峡谷排放到掺有臭氧(O3)的城市ABL中。首先,我们利用具有化学动力学的平流-扩散方程,推导了示踪剂与活性污染物的扩散系数之间的理论关系。接下来,使用源贫化类比来确定羽流形状,而不是传统的高斯羽流模型。最后,对LES输出的回归表明,垂直无量纲NO浓度分布在一系列背景O3浓度下表现出自相似性。因此,提出了一种新的城市地区反应羽流扩散参数化方法,其性能在平均羽流上升过程中表现显著。

To assess the impact of cities on climate, modelling is used with inclusion of urban parameterisation which is important when applying higher resolution. It is essential to assess uncertainties of urban effect parameterisations. To estimate this we performed experiments with available settings of urban canopy models over central Europe for 2001-2010. We have used RegCM4 and WRF in 10 km resolution, three surface schemes and five urban canopy parameterisations available. Selected WRF options were tested for urbanised weather prediction in 3 km resolution to show the effect in a single extreme case study. Urban heat island was detected in all simulations, for summer night the strongest on average was a few °C. We demonstrate that for cities like Prague it can in extremes approach 5°C, for larger city such as Budapest it is 8°C. In weather prediction mode, WRF model captured these effects in a single heat wave with selected parameterisations well.
为了评估城市对气候的影响,使用了包含城市参数化的模型,这在应用更高分辨率时很重要。评估城市效应参数化的不确定性至关重要。为了估计这一点,我们利用2001-2010年中欧城市冠层模型的现有设置进行了实验。我们使用了RegCM4和WRF的10公里分辨率,三种地表方案和五种城市冠层参数化。选定的WRF方案在3公里分辨率的城市天气预报中进行了测试,以显示在单个极端案例研究中的效果。在所有模拟中都检测到城市热岛,夏季夜间平均最强为几°C。我们证明,像布拉格这样的城市在极端情况下可以接近5°C,像布达佩斯这样的大城市可以达到8°C。在天气预报模式中,WRF模式通过选定的参数化很好地捕获了单个热浪的这些影响。

Potentially adverse air quality is discussed via its relation to wind conditions and boundary layer thickness. The main goal of the study is to evaluate different RegCM simulations for 1981–1990, driven by either reanalysis data or global climate model output. Wind speed, temperature, planetary boundary layer (PBL) height and the Holst stagnation index are analysed and compared to the reference data. Wind is overestimated throughout the year. Temperature is overestimated in the plain areas, whereas underestimated in the mountains. The PBL height is generally overestimated and substantial differences are identified between the RegCM4.5 and RegCM4.3 simulations. Consequently, these result in substantial underestimations of the Holst stagnation index and of the frequency of potentially adverse air quality, although the annual cycles are reproduced well. In order to prepare reliable projections, the testing of different model setups must be continued, especially changing the Holtslag scheme to a different PBL parameterisation scheme.
通过与风况和边界层厚度的关系讨论了潜在的不利空气质量。本研究的主要目标是评估1981-1990年不同的RegCM模拟,这些模拟是由再分析数据或全球气候模式输出驱动的。分析了风速、温度、行星边界层高度和霍尔斯特滞止指数,并与参考资料进行了比较。全年的风力都被高估了。平原地区的温度被高估了,而山区的温度被低估了。PBL高度通常被高估,RegCM4.5和RegCM4.3模拟之间存在实质性差异。因此,这些结果大大低估了霍尔斯特停滞指数和潜在不利空气质量的频率,尽管年周期可以很好地再现。为了准备可靠的预测,必须继续测试不同的模型设置,特别是将Holtslag方案更改为不同的PBL参数化方案。

Nanotechnology is an emerging field to produce nano-scale products with more efficient reactivity and larger surface area than its bulk phase. These unique attributes of nanoparticles offer immense potential for their application to clean up petroleum hydrocarbons, pesticides, and metal-contaminated sites. As compared to the conventional physicochemical methods of remediation of contaminated sites, the bioremediation has been drawing increasing attention due to its economic, eco-friendly and self-propelling attributes. Nanoparticles (NPs) can be either applied directly for removal of organic contaminants through adsorption or chemical modification. They can also serve as a facilitator in microbial remediation of contaminants either by immobilising or through the induced production of remediating microbial enzymes. The present review provides an overview of different types of nano-technologies with biological and plant-based bioremediation approaches.

The selection of landfill sites for disposal of municipal solid waste is an important challenge for the engineering system. In this study, selection procedure of an appropriate landfill site among the four landfill sites for disposal of waste in Allahabad (India) is highlighted. A questionnaire comprising physical/chemical, biological/ecological, social/cultural and economic/operational aspects was prepared. A survey was conducted among the residents near all four landfill sites. The responses were analysed with a rapid impact assessment matrix tool to quantify the intangible effects in terms of environmental score. Environmental performance index (EPI) was also computed for all four sites to intelligibly ascertain the efficacy of each solid waste disposal facility. The results revealed that Ganja landfill site was the best site as compared with the other sites. The EPI of Kareli, Alopibagh, Phaphamau and Ganja sites was –110.315, –123.541, –98.867 and –54.586, respectively.

The impact of the increased temperature on some pollution levels is studied by developing climate scenarios and by running them on a period of 16 consecutive years. The mathematical model used in the experiments is a system of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) and the space domain contains the whole of Europe together with some of its surroundings. Difficult computational problems arise after the direct discretisation of the spatial derivatives in the equations. The enormous computational problems can be treated successfully only by resolving five important tasks: 1) applying accurate and efficient numerical algorithms; 2) selecting an appropriate splitting procedure; 3) developing parallel codes; 4) using high-speed computers; 5) exploiting well the cache memories of the parallel computers. Numerical results will be presented in order to illustrate both the efficiency of the code and the fact that the future climate changes will result in consistent increase of some pollution levels.

Independent analysis of time-varying hydrogen cyanide gas exposures on rats using toxic load-based modelling 使用毒性负荷模型对大鼠时变氰化氢气体暴露进行独立分析

The US Defence Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) sponsored a two-year set of experiments, conducted in 2012 and 2013, that were designed and executed by the US Army's Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center (ECBC) and the Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton (NAMRU-D) to explore time-varying inhalation exposures of hydrogen cyanide gas on rats. Our analysis, detailed in a separate paper, finds that a single set of fitted parameters for the toxic load model (i.e., the toxic load exponent n, probit slope m, and median lethal exposure TL50) cannot accurately model the single exposure experimental data across the experiments' full range of time from 2.3 to 30 minutes but can on the longer timescales of 10 to 30 minutes. However, none of the toxic load models that we considered fits the experimental data for the novel, time-varying exposures well, with the average concentration and Griffiths-Megson models providing the least inaccurate casualty predictions.
美国国防威胁减少局(DTRA)赞助了一项为期两年的实验,于2012年和2013年进行,由美国陆军埃奇伍德化学和生物中心(ECBC)和海军医学研究单位(NAMRU-D)设计和执行,以探索吸入氰化氢气体对大鼠的时变暴露。我们的分析(详见另一篇论文)发现,有毒负荷模型的一组拟合参数(即有毒负荷指数n、概率斜率m和中位致死暴露TL50)不能准确地模拟2.3至30分钟整个实验时间范围内的单一暴露实验数据,但可以在10至30分钟的较长时间尺度上建模。然而,我们考虑的毒性负荷模型都不能很好地拟合新型时变暴露的实验数据,平均浓度和格里菲斯-梅格森模型提供了最不准确的伤亡预测。
