文摘39 soil samples surrounding a lead-zinc mining area in Guangxi were collected,and the contents of Pb,Hg,Cd,Cr,As,Cu,Zn,and Ni were determined to investigate the pollution characteristics and sources of heavy metals.ArcGIS inverse distance weight difference method was used to analyze the characteristics of pollution distribution,and single-factor pollution index,Nemerow comprehensive pollution index,ground accumulation index,and potential ecological risk index were selected to evaluate the characteristics of heavy metal pollution.Based on correlation analysis,the absolute principal component-multiple linear regression(APCS-MLR)and positive definite matrix factorization(PMF)models were used to analyze the sources of soil heavy metals.The results showed that the average concentrations of all eight heavy metals exceeded both national and Guangxi soil background values.Hg,Cd,and Zn exhibited high variation(greater than 0.5),indicating significant external disturbances,and their spatial distribution was closely related to mining activity locations.The single-factor pollution index evaluation indicated varying degrees of pollution risk for Cd,Zn,and As,with Cd and Zn being the most severe pollutants,as 69.23%and 30.77%of the samples fell into the moderate pollution or higher category.The geoaccumulation index analysis ranked the mean pollution levels of the eight elements as follows:Zn>Cd>Ni>Pb>Cu>Cr>Hg>As,with Cd and Zn showing the most severe contamination,and 51.28%of the samples exhibiting moderate or higher pollution levels.The Nemerow comprehensive pollution index evaluation showed that 74.35%of soil samples were classified as moderate to heavy pollution.The potential ecological risk index assessment indicated significant ecological risks posed by Cd and Zn,with 82.05%and 5.12%of the samples classified as causing strong to extreme ecological risks,respectively.The source apportionment analysis revealed minor differences between the two models.The APCS-MLR model identified three pollution sources and their contribution rates:anthropogenic mining sources(31.13%),parent material sources(40.38%),and unidentified sources(28.49%).The PMF model identified three pollution sources with contribution rates of anthropogenic mining sources(26.10%),parent material sources(46.96%),and a combined traffic and agricultural source(26.61%).Pb,Hg,Cd,and Zn mainly originated from mining activities;Cr,As,and Ni were primarily derived from the parent material,while Cu was predominantly attributed to traffic and agricultural sources.These findings provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of heavy metal pollution in mining areas.
文摘Heavy metal(HM)contamination severely impacts global agricultural production.HMs toxicity effectively damaged the physiological functions such as imbalanced redox homeostasis,altered antioxidant enzyme activity,damage root system architecture,hindered photosynthetic apparatus,cellular toxicity,restricted mineral accumulation,and changed the metabolite production.Using phytohormones may be a successful strategy for enhancing and stimulating plant tolerance to HMs toxicity without affecting the environment.Melatonin(MT),a novel plant growth regulator,and powerful antioxidant molecule,enhances plant resilience to HMs stress by enhancing seedling growth,protecting the photosynthetic system,increasing nutritional status,balanced redox homeostasis,and restricting HMs accumulation from root to shoot.In addition,MT enhances the activity of antioxidant enzymes and triggers the ascorbate-glutathione(AsA-GSH)cycle,which helps remove excessive ROS.MT improves RuBisCO activity to improve photosynthesis and reduce the breakdown of chlorophyll.To identify future research needs,it is crucial to understand the comprehensive and intricate regulatory mechanisms of exogenous and endogenous MT-mediated reduction of heavy metal toxicity in plants.Melatonin has several functions,and this review sheds light on those functions and the molecular processes by which it alleviates HMs toxicity.More research is needed to fully understand how melatonin affects plant tolerance to heavy metals stress.
文摘Heavy metal contamination is a global issue caused by anthropogenic activities leading to severe negative effects on the environment and human health.To address this problem,bioremediation strategies utilizing plants such as Typha latifolia and their symbiotic fungi have been adopted to remediate contaminated areas and mitigate the harmful effects of these pollutants.In this study,the endophytic fungus Neosartorya fischeri was isolated from the roots of T.latifolia plants growing in heavy metal-contaminated sites.N.fischeri colonized the epidermis and root cortex and showed high tolerance to toxic concentrations of silver(Ag)(1 mg/kg),copper(Cu)(60 mg/kg)and cadmium(Cd)(8 mg/kg).N.fischeri removed 8.7%±0.5%Cd from the medium,biosorbed 15.24±0.2 mg/kg into its biomass,and enhanced the tolerance and bioaccumulation of Cd(184.18±1.14 mg/kg)in plant roots.Moreover,N.fischeri produces siderophores,volatile compounds and solubilizes phosphates,which improve plant fitness.This was evidenced by a 28%increase in photosynthetic pigments in T.latifolia plants colonized with N.fischeri.Additionally,N.fischeri inhibits the growth of important phytopathogens from the Fusarium genus.These findings highlight the important role of N.fischeri in enhancing the fitness and resilience of T.latifolia in hostile environments,demonstrating the potential of N.fischeri-T.latifolia association for the bioremediation of contaminated sites.
文摘The surge in environmental pollution in recent years driven by numerous pollutants has necessitated the search for efficient removal methods.Phytoremediation is an eco-friendly technique that provides multiple benefits over conventional methods of removing contaminants.Despite the numerous benefits of this technique,it has certain limitations that can be addressed by incorporating nanoparticles to improve its effectiveness.This review paper aims to explore the impact of heavy metal pollution on plants and human health.It highlights the role and mechanism of nanoparticles in enhancing phytoremediation,their application in the detection of heavy metals,and the strategies for the safe disposal of phytoremediation biomass.Biosynthesized nanoparticles are eco-friendly and non-toxic,with applications in biomedical and environmental fields.Nanoparticles can be used in the form of nano biosensors like smartphone-operated wireless sensors made from Cinnamomum camphora,enabling efficient detection of heavy metal ions.According to the studies,nanoparticles remove 80%–97%of heavy metals by various methods like reduction,precipitation,adsorption,etc.The phytoremediation biomass disposal can be done by heat treatment,phytomining,and microbial treatment with some modifications to further enhance their results.Phytoremediation is an environmentally friendly technique but requires further research and integration with biomass energy production to overcome scalability challenges and ensure safe biomass disposal.

文摘With rising anthropogenic activities,the contamination of soil with toxic heavy metals has become a pressing global concern,posing significant threats to plant growth,soil health,and human safety.Biochar,derived from pyrolysis of organic wastes,has emerged as a promising,cost-effective,and environmentally friendly solution for mitigating heavy metal toxicity in soil.This review explores the multifunctional properties of biochar that make it an effective adsorbent for heavy metals,highlighting the pivotal role of pyrolysis temperature in determining its physiochemical and structural properties.Higher pyrolytic temperatures enhance biochar's specific surface area,microporosity,p H,and stability,contributing to its increased efficiency in adsorbing heavy metals such as chromium(Cr(Ⅵ)),cadmium(Cd(Ⅱ)),and zinc(Zn(Ⅱ)).The mechanisms of heavy metal immobilization by biochar are influenced by the variations in biomass feedstock,pyrolysis conditions,and functional group modifications.This review also delves into the molecular mechanisms by which biochar regulates stress responses in plants,including the expression of key genes like Os FSD1,Os CAT,Os SOD,and Bn IRT1,which mitigate oxidative stress induced by heavy metals.Thus,by improving soil properties and promoting plant resilience,biochar stands as a versatile soil amendment with vast potential for environmental bioremediation.

文摘Toxic heavy metal and metalloid(THMM)contamination poses a major global challenge,threatening human health and sustainable agriculture.The crucial role of the Cytochrome P450(CYP)gene family in plant tolerance to THMMs has been recently highlighted,but there is still a lack of comprehensive understanding,especially in relation to metabolites.This study delved into the identification of CYP genes that are linked to the tolerance mechanisms of plants in response to heavy metal stress.The findings highlight the significant metabolic pathways that contribute to this resilience,using rice and Arabidopsis as exemplars.THMM exposure changed CYP gene expression in plants,and THMM antidotes mitigated its downregulation and that of flavonoid biosynthesis genes.CYP genes involved in THMM responses were predominantly enriched in the pathways associated with flavonoid synthesis,indicating functional adaptations to distinct stresses.Notably,anthocyanin(Ant)accumulation,a type of flavonoid,affected the uptake of various heavy metals in Brassica rapa,with flavonoid biosynthesis-associated genes correlating with Cd or As tolerance and Ant content.These findings highlight the critical importance of flavonoid metabolism and the intricate network of biosynthesis genes in bolstering plant resilience against heavy metal stress.This enhanced understanding paves the way for significant advancements in phytoremediation technologies,offering innovative solutions for soil and water decontamination.

文摘In this review,the synthesis,functions,and applications of the polymers containing germanium and tin,which are heavy group 14 elements,in their polymer frameworks are summarized.Germanium and tin can form similar skeletal structures with their homologues carbon and silicon,whereas the polymers containing germanium and tin show unique properties derived from their large atomic radii and weak binding energies.For example,polygermane and polystannane exhibited light absorption in the UV–visible region and conductivity because of theσ-conjugation through the polymer main-chain constructed byσ-bonds between heavy elements.Theσ-conjugation was affected by the conformational change of the polymer main-chain,and thermochromic properties can be induced.Furthermore,the weak bonds were able to be cleaved homolytically upon photoirradiation,and radicals were subsequently generated.By incorporating hypervalent heavy elements into theπ-conjugated system,it was possible to modulate the electronic structures of theπ-conjugated system throughσ*–π*conjugation with highly coordinated elements.Finally,applications for organic solar cells,organic lightemitting materials,and chemical sensors have been achieved.Herein,representative synthetic methods and unique properties for creating smart materials with germanium and tin will be explained.

文摘W-CoFeNi WHAs(tungsten heavy alloys)were fabricated by powder metallurgy with sintering temperatures ranging from 1480 to 1560℃.The influence of sintering temperatures on microstructure evolutions and mechanical properties of W-CoFeNi WHAs was investigated.The experimental results show that near-spherical W grains are distributed in CoFeNi ternary multi-principal-elements alloy(MPEA)with the formation of W-richμphase in all W-CoFeNi WHAs.The volume fractions ofμphase and average W grain size increase with sintering temperatures changing from 1480 to 1560℃.The activation energy for W grain growth is significantly higher than that of traditional W-Ni-Fe and W-Ni-Co WHAs,which indicates grain coarsening behavior in CoFeNi MPEA became more difficult compared to the conventional binder alloys.W-CoFeNi sintered at 1480℃exhibits the highest yield strength of 698 MPa among all WHAs due to finer W grain size.The compressive strength and fracture strain of W-CoFeNi reduce when sintering temperatures rise from 1480 to 1560℃.
文摘Based on high-altitude and ground observation data and physical quantity field data,the diagnostic analysis of a heavy rainfall process in Hulunbuir City from July 18 to 20,2025 was conducted from the aspects of circulation patterns,influencing systems,dynamic conditions,moisture conditions and convective conditions,and the causes of the occurrence and development of this process were revealed.The study shows that the superposition of the upper-level trough,the ground cyclone,and the low-level jet stream formed strong water vapor transport,strong warm advection,and strong dynamic uplift in Hulunbuir,thereby leading to this heavy rainfall event.The forecasting ideas for short-term heavy rainfall were pointed out to provide certain scientific references for future forecasting and prediction work.

文摘The ectomycorrhizal fungus Paxillus involutus was inoculated onto tissue-cultures of the hybrid poplar,Populus davidiana×P.bolleana,to evaluate the elemental defense effect to heavy metals copper and cadmium at different concentrations by simulating Alternaria alternata fungus infection.The enrichment capacity of Populus davidiana×P.bolleana for Cu and Cd was closely associated with the degree of heavy metal stress.There was a significant positive interaction of applying Cu and Cd and the inoculation with P.involutus on A.alternata leaf blight disease index.The incidence rate and disease index of leaf blight underwent a significant reduction compared with the controls.Similarly,the ratio of the area of disease spot to leaf area,incidence rate,and disease index for Populus davidiana×P.bolleana leaves inoculated with Paxillus involutus(Batsch)Fr.were significantly lower than those of their nonmycorrhizal counterparts.With increasing the degree of Cu and Cd stress,a gradual increase in the average value of the membership function for the incidence rate and disease index was observed,indicating the weakened pathogen's ability to cause infection and the improved resistance of Populus davidiana×P.bolleana to leaf blight disease under Cu and Cd stress.Moreover,superoxide dismutase enzyme activity in Populus davidiana×P.bolleana increased significantly,reaching levels of 411.0 U/g FW and 421.6 U/g FW under Cu and Cd treatments,respectively.These changes in metabolic products and antioxidant enzyme activities suggest that P.involutus may enhance the resistance of Populus davidiana×P.bolleana to the fungus,Alternaria alternata Fr.Keissel under heavy metal stress by modulating these physiological indicators.

文摘Industrial waste salts are commonly used to make value-added snow-melting agents to ensure traffic safety in northern China during winter and spring after snowfall.However,heavy metals in industrial waste salts may pose certain environmental risks.Snow-melting agents and snow samples were collected and analyzed from highways,arterial roads,footbridges,and other locations in Beijing after the snowstorm in December 2023.It was found that the main component of snow-melting agents was sodium chloride with high concentrations of Cu,Mn,and Zn,which are not regulated in the current policies,despite the recent promotion of environmentally friendly snow-melting agents.The Pb,Zn and Cr contents of some snow samples exceeded the limitation value of surface water quality standards,potentially affecting the soil and water environment near roadsides,although the snow-melting agents comply with relevant standards,which indicates the policy gap in the management of recycled industrial salts.We reviewed and analyzed the relevant standards for snow-melting agents and industrial waste salts proposed nationally and internationally over the past 30 years.Through comparative analysis,we proposed relevant policy recommendations to the existing quality standards of snow-melting agents and the management regulations of industrial waste salts,and the formulation of corresponding usage strategies,aimed at reducing the potential environmental release of heavy metals from the use of snow-melting agents,thereby promoting more sustainable green urban development and environmentally sound waste management.

文摘Rapid industrialization in China has caused significant environmental challenges,particularly heavy metal pollution from mine tailings.Toxic heavy metals such as lead(Pb),cadmium(Cd),and mercury(Hg)are released during the processing of mining wastewater and leaching of mine tailings.Owing to their excellent physicochemical properties,cementitious materials are widely used for the solidification/stabilization of heavy metals,immobilizing heavy metals via two distinct mechanisms.Physically,their favorable characteristics,including high mechanical strength,low porosity,and durable matrix,create effective barriers.Chemically,the alkaline environment facilitates the precipitation of metal hydroxides/carbonates.Conversely,hydration products(calcium silicate hydrate gels and ettringite)contribute to immobilization through adsorption and physical encapsulation.This study systematically investigated the migration mechanisms of heavy metal contaminants in mine tailings;further,it elucidated the multifaceted immobilization pathways of cementitious materials,which involve synergistic adsorption,precipitation,and encapsulation by hydration products combined with homocrystalline substitution.A comprehensive analysis indicated that cementitious materials significantly reduced the mobility and bioavailability of heavy metals.Nonetheless,their long-term stability and potential environmental impact require further investigation.This study aims to provide theoretical support for environmental management and sustainable resource utilization,and to explore the broader application potential of cementitious technology for heavy metal stabilization,thereby establishing a theoretical foundation for future research on heavy metals in low-cement solidified/stabilized tailings.

文摘The failure mechanisms and structural damage of SiC MOSFETs induced by heavy ion irradiation were demonstrated.The findings reveal three degradation modes,depending on the drain voltage.At a relatively low voltage,the damage is triggered by the formation and activation of gate latent damage(LDs),with damage concentrated in the gate oxide.The second degradation mode involves permanent leakage current degradation,with damage progressively transitioning from the oxide to the SiC material as the drain voltage escalates.Ultimately,the device undergoes catastrophic burnout above certain voltages,characterized by the lattice temperature reaching the sublimation point of SiC,resulting in surface cavity and complete structural destruction.This paper presents a comprehensive investigation of SiC MOSFETs under heavy ion exposure,providing radiation resistance methods of SiC-based devices for aerospace applications.
文摘Heavy metal pollution seriously threatens global rice production and food security.Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF)can alleviate heavy metal stress in rice.To summarize existing research and propose new research directions,this review outlines the current status of heavy metal pollution from perspectives including general pollution situation,soil heavy metal pollution,water heavy metal pollution,and paddy field heavy metal pollution.This paper also synthesizes the negative impacts of heavy metal stress on rice growth in terms of morphological indicators,photosynthesis,redox balance,and nutritional metabolism.It also analyzes the mechanisms by which AMF alleviate heavy metal stress in rice,induding physiological as and biochemical regulatory mechanisms,as well as molecular and genetic regulatory mechanisms.Furthermore,this paper provides research perspectives regarding integration with genetic engineering and breeding technologies,applications under combined stress conditions,and technological integration with field application promotion,aiming to establish a theoretical foundation for further research in ecological restoration and safe utilization of heavy metal-contaminated paddy fields.

文摘Summer rainfall in the Yangtze River basin(YRB)is favored by two key factors in the lower troposphere:the tropical anticyclonic anomaly over the western North Pacific and the extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of the YRB.This study,however,found that approximately 46%of heavy rainfall events in the YRB occur when only one factor appears and the other is opposite signed.Accordingly,these heavy rainfall events can be categorized into two types:the extratropical northeasterly anomalies but tropical cyclonic anomaly(first unconventional type),and the tropical anticyclonic anomaly but extratropical southwesterly anomalies(second unconventional type).Anomalous water vapor convergence and upward motion exists for both types,but through different mechanisms.For the first type,the moisture convergence and upward motion are induced by a cyclonic anomaly over the YRB,which appears in the mid and lower troposphere and originates from the upstream region.For the second type,a mid-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over Lake Baikal extends southward and results in southwesterly anomalies over the YRB,in conjunction with the tropical anticyclonic anomaly.The southwesterly anomalies transport water vapor to the YRB and lead to upward motion through warm advection.This study emphasizes the role of mid-tropospheric circulations in inducing heavy rainfall in the YRB.
