在以氡为特征污染物的大气扩散数值模拟中,因其湿沉降参数一般采用缺省值而造成了计算精度的不确定性.为了确定氡湿沉降参数的影响因素和特征值,自主研制了试验装置模拟降水过程,综合分析了初始氡活度浓度、降水强度、降水pH 与氡湿沉降率和清除效率的关系.结果表明,氡在大气环境中的湿沉降率与初始氡活度浓度和降水强度呈线性相关(R2>0.99),清除效率与初始氡活度浓度、pH 均表现出弱相关性.以气相氡为典型对象,当湿沉降率在 31~2 653 Bq/(m2·h)时,可预测氡的清除效率保持在 0.55%~0.65%.研究得到的降水强度与湿沉降参数的指数函数关系式可为氡的大气扩散数值模拟提供参数依据.

Uranium(U) can be readily adsorbed and retained in plant roots. A high concentration of U causes phytotoxicity. Plants have evolved a number of defence strategies operate separately or cooperate with each other to alleviate U-induced phytotoxicity. The defense mechanisms of plants in response to uranium stress were summarized, including compartmentalization, chelation of plants, antioxidant system, chemical form conversion of uranium. The related research direction was also prospected. The results are helpful to clarify the molecular genetic basis of plant tolerance to uranium and provide reference for plant response to uranium stress.
According to the requirements of safety monitoring in the decommissioning of uranium tailings pond, the first dam of a uranium tailings pond is taken as a pilot project. By deploying Beidou displacement monitoring terminals and various sensors at key points such as the surface of uranium tailings dam and the reservoir area, the real-time monitoring of the tailings pond and the prediction and early warning of the trend of surface deformation, the settlement trend of the dam and the variation trend of water level in the reservoir are realized, so as to predict the stability of the dam in advance and master the safety of the dam. Under the guidance of the intelligent monitoring and prevention system, a comprehensive monitoring platform is developed to provide advanced technical means for the decommissioning and management of the uranium tailings pond in the uranium industry, thus transforming passive “supervision” into active “monitoring”. The research results can provide reference for safety monitoring and intelligent prevention of other uranium tailings ponds.
