ABSTRACT

Marine manganese nodules and crusts, when processed, yield tailings which may be utilized for environmental and economic benefit. The key to the reasonable and effective utilization of these tailings lies in making a systematic appraisal of their composition and properties. This article gives an introduction to the investigation of manganese tailings properties. The tailings have a high iron and/or manganese content, high surface area, high porosity, and fine grain size. Some tailings have a high rare earth element content which is valuable. They may also have high SO3, arsenic, and uranium contents which are harmful. Depending on the process used to produce the tailings, there will likely be some differences in chemical composition, mineral assemblages, surface area and adsorption capability, pore diameter and volume, density and pH. In assigning potentially beneficial applications for these tailings, these differences should be taken into account to optimize utilization.  相似文献

Tailings of marine manganese nodules and crusts have many useful properties. One property in particular which could be of great significance is their high gas adsorption capacity. This capacity has a direct relationship with the pore structure of the tailings. The present investigation deals with the size, volume, surface area, and distribution of pores in the tailings via nitrogen adsorption-desorption techniques. The results show that the pore diameter of these tailings varies between 1.203 and 243.6 nm. The most frequent diameter of pores is 2 to 50 nm. These are classified as mesopores. The Barrett-Joyner-Halenda adsorption pore diameter is 1.203 to 14.078 nm. The small pores give the largest contribution to pore surface area. The large pores give the biggest contribution to pore volume. The pores could be derived from several sources. These include: (a) the amorphous fraction of the tailings which has been calcined, (b) the accumulative clearances between nanometer grains or crystals, and (c) the original porosity of the marine minerals.  相似文献

海底热液喷发形成的热液羽状流中富含成矿物质,并沉淀在距离热液喷口不等的范围内。对西南印度洋中脊热液喷口附近、距离喷口中等距离、远离喷口的六个表层沉积物样品开展了不同粒度沉积物的便携式XRF(PXRF)分析。结果表明,PXRF可以有效获得的洋中脊钙质沉积物中成矿元素的富集特征。>40目的沉积物样品具有较高的Cu、Zn、Fe、Mn等元素含量,40目以下沉积物中则相对稳定,可能与粗粒沉积物中玄武岩碎屑/玻璃含量较高有关,与镜下鉴定结果一致。以热液喷口为中心,表层沉积物中表现出Cu、Zn、As、Fe、Mn的元素分带,靠近喷口的沉积物中具有较高的成矿元素的含量,并具有较高的Cu/Fe、Zn/Fe比值或者Cu/Mn与Zn/Mn比值。上述结论表明,洋中脊沉积物中成矿元素的含量主要受与喷口的距离的影响,而与粒度的关系不大,洋中脊沉积物地球化学找矿应采用40目以下粒径沉积物作为分析样品。通过PXRF获得的Cu、Zn、As、Fe、Mn等元素含量及其比值特征可以作为海底多金属硫化物沉积物地球化学找矿的指标,该方法满足快速有效识别洋中脊沉积物中地球化学异常的要求。  相似文献

利用催化动力学分光光度法和两步提取法对2011年4月(春)、8月(夏)、10月(秋)和2012年1月(冬)桑沟湾海域溶解态无机锰(DIMn)和表层沉积物中的锰的含量进行测定。结果表明,桑沟湾4个季节(春季至冬季,后同)DIMn浓度呈现出近岸高、远岸低的分布特点,其平均浓度分别为(60.5±43.1) nmol/L、(42.0±30.5) nmol/L、(23.4±11.2) nmol/L和(18.2±13.5) nmol/L,呈现出明显的季节变化,即春季最高,夏季、秋季次之,冬季最低;与相邻的俚岛湾和爱莲湾相比,桑沟湾春季、夏季DIMn的浓度较高,秋季、冬季则没有显著性差异。桑沟湾表层沉积物中总Mn在4个季节的含量分别为(861±308) mg/kg、(915±322) mg/kg、(589±108) mg/kg、(653±185) mg/kg,表层沉积物中醋酸提取态Mn在4个季节的含量分别为(500±272) mg/kg、(502±232) mg/kg、(322±81) mg/kg、(345±91) mg/kg,两者均表现出近岸高、远岸低的分布特点。醋酸提取态Mn的含量在春季、夏季要显著高于秋季、冬季。悬浮颗粒物的吸附和浮游生物的利用是影响桑沟湾DIMn浓度与分布的重要因素。桑沟湾DIMn的源主要包括河流及地下水输送、大气输送、沉积物?水界面释放;汇主要包括养殖生物的清除、向黄海的输送等。简单箱式模型收支计算结果显示,桑沟湾DIMn的源略大于汇,表明除了养殖生物的清除和向黄海的输送,桑沟湾DIMn还存在其他汇。本研究的结果为桑沟湾DIMn的生物地球化学循环的深入认识提供了基础数据。  相似文献

The contents of oxyanionic elements (V, Se and Mo) and cationic transition metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) in sediments from near-shore to deep-sea environments were measured to clarify factors regulating the distribution of these elements in marine sediments. For cationic transition metals of which contents increase from near-shore to deep-sea environments, the chemical composition of pelagic clays is modeled by a mixture of aluminosilicates having the chemical composition of average shale and Fe–Mn oxides having the chemical composition of associated manganese nodules. The content of V is fairly constant in sediments from near-shore to deep-sea areas. The mixture model of average shale and manganese nodules holds also for V, although most of the V is located in the aluminosilicate lattices. The content of Se in the near-shore sediments is higher and that in the deep-sea sediments is lower than that in average shale. The high content in the near-shore sediments is interpreted as the addition of biogenic materials to aluminosilicates with average shale composition and the low content in deep-sea sediments is explained by oxidative release of Se from aluminosilicates. The content of Mo in sediments increases from near-shore to deep-sea environments. The general distribution of Mo in marine sediments is expressed by the mixture model. An anomalously high content of Mo in a near-shore sediment is attributed to adsorption of molybdate on manganese oxides.  相似文献

太平洋多金属结核中铁锰矿物分析及成因研究   总被引:12,自引:2,他引:10  
铁锰矿物是大详多金属结核的重要组成,了解不同类型结核中主要铁锰矿物种类、形态、分布特点和结晶程度等,不仅有助于对锰矿物乃至多金属结核成因的研究,而且对选矿冶炼和资源的综合利用也具有现实意义.本文通过透射电子显微镜等多种手段综合分析与鉴定,指出多金属结核中主要铁锰矿物有钙锰矿、水羟锰矿、水钠锰矿、方锰矿、锰铁矿和针铁矿等.结晶程度普遍较差,钙锰矿结晶相对好于其他矿物,并在粗糙型结核中含量高,外层至核心含量稳定,变化小.水羟锰矿广为分布,但结晶差.铁矿物含量东区低于西区,结核外壳铁含量高于内核.锰矿物分布在叠层石柱体和纹层内,呈束状、纤维状和树枝状,与建造多金属结核的超微生物菌丝体形态一致.粗糙型结核是选冶的主要对象.  相似文献

Recently published distribution patterns have shown that in the Atlantic Ocean Mn, Ni and Co tend to be concentrated in those deep-sea sediments deposited in a central zone which extends down the length of the ocean. The present paper shows that these trace elements are also concentrated in certain clays from the south-west region of the North Atlantic. This region is rich in manganese nodules, and analyses reveal that the non-lithogenous fractions of some of the clays approximate to those of the nodules in composition. It is suggested that these clays have acquired their relatively high concentration of non-lithogenous trace elements from sea water by processes associated with the formation of manganese nodules.  相似文献

Aoshio-hypoxic water which can be distinguished from surrounding coastal water by its milky blue-green color-is often observed at the head of Tokyo Bay when coastal upwelling of sulfidic bottom water occurs during summer and early autumn. Optical properties and the biological-chemical composition of suspended matter in theaoshio water were investigated using nearby “normal” coastal water as a reference. Suspended matter in theaoshio water contributed to the large beam-attenuation coefficient and also to the strong upward radiance with maximal intensity around 550 nm as a result of the scattering process. No significant difference in bacterial density was observed between samples ofaoshio water and reference coastal water. The low chlorophylls concentration inaoshio water samples indicates that biological pigments may not play a dominant role in the color of theaoshio events. The suspended particles inaoshio water samples had much higher contents of sulfur and manganese and a lower silicon content than those in reference coastal water samples. The colloidal elemental sulfur and manganese-rich particles identified in theaoshio water appear to be oxidation products of dissolved sulfide and manganese (II) in the anoxic water. On the basis of these findings, it may be concluded that there is a high probability that elemental sulfur and manganese-rich particles are responsible for the color and turbidity inaoshio.  相似文献

Two different Cymodocea nodosa (Ucria) Ascherson beds growing in mining-contaminated sediments were compared with two reference beds in the Mar Menor coastal lagoon. The accumulation of Zn, Pb and Cd in different fractions of the plant, the sediment parameters that regulate the availability of metals, the seabed structure and dynamics of each seagrass bed and its associated macroinvertebrate community were studied. C. nodosa accumulates metals from the sediments and reflects their bioavailability for this seagrass. At each station, the metal content of the rhizomes was lower than that of leaves and roots. The concentration of acid-volatile sulfides does not seem to influence the availability of metals to the seagrass, possibly due to oxygen transport to underground tissues. The highest metal concentration in all the contaminated stations was found in the leaf-biofilm, due to the formation of complexes between metals and the extracellular polymeric substances that form the biofilm. All the seagrass beds were seen to be undergoing expansion, those growing in contaminated sediments accumulating great quantities of metals and showing highest photosynthetic leaf surface area and highest leaf biomass. However, these structural parameters were not seen to be responsible for the differences in the faunal composition observed between contaminated and reference beds. Moreover, the multivariate analysis identified the metal content of leaves, biofilm and sediments as important variables that may be responsible for these differences in faunal composition. In this study we have demonstrated that both the seagrass C. nodosa and the biofilm on the plant leaves may be used as environmental tools in the Mar Menor lagoon. The former is an useful indicator of sediment contamination, whereas the latter seems to be a good sentinel of water quality.  相似文献

浙闽近岸与南黄海中部沉积物物理力学性质的差异性分析   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
本文对浙闽近岸和南黄海中部泥质区沉积物的物理力学性质,分别从基本物理性质、水理性质及力学性质进行对比分析,发现两个区域沉积物均以淤泥为主,含水率与密度、压缩系数与压缩模量均呈良好的幂函数负相关性,液限与塑限呈良好的幂函数正相关性,含水率与孔隙比呈较好的线性正相关,十字板剪切强度与微型贯入阻力呈较好的多项式函数关系。总体来说,南黄海中部泥质区沉积物相对于浙闽近岸泥质区沉积物具有含水率高、孔隙比大、密度小、塑性高,压缩性大,抗剪强度低等特征。从地形特征、物质来源、水动力条件、沉积速率和物质组成等方面进行两个区域沉积物物理力学性质差异性的成因分析。结果显示,与浙闽近岸相比,南黄海中部离陆较远、地势低洼、水动力条件较弱,能够扩散至此的物质较少并以极细的粘粒物质为主,沉积物中的蒙脱石和有机质含量高。这些因素使得南黄海中部沉积物的含水率高,塑性大,密度低,强度低。  相似文献

2007年11月在东海泥质区采集了表层沉积物样品,用连续提取法对金属元素的赋存形态进行了分离,测定了各形态中锰、铁和铝的含量。结果表明,锰主要赋存于碳酸盐结合态,含量为0.04~0.19mg/g,平均0.13mg/g;铁主要赋存于易还原态(铁锰氧化物结合态),含量为1.1~2.3μg/g,平均1.5mg/g;大部分站点的铝主要赋存于易还原态,含量为0.4~1.1mg/g,平均0.7mg/g。沉积物主要成分对金属赋存形态产生影响,CARB态、ERO态Mn、Fe和Al分别随沉积物中碳酸钙、水合铁锰氧化物含量的升高而增加,且ERO态金属与水合铁锰氧化物的相关性显著;有机物的含量的对OSM态金属的影响则不明显。非残渣态Fe和Al的含量随水深增加而降低,主要是由于沉积物中ERO态Fe和Al受陆地径流输入和水体中清除作用的影响,导致近岸沉积物中有较多的活性Fe、Al;离岸距离增加则沉积物中活性Fe、Al含量减少。  相似文献

研究了培养液中不同锰离子浓度对斜生栅藻(Scenedesmus obliquus)DHD-3 的生长、油脂积累以及脂肪酸组成的影响。结果表明, 培养液中不同初始浓度的锰离子对斜生栅藻早期叶绿素积累和生长会产生一定的调节作用, 过高或过低的锰离子都不利于斜生栅藻细胞内叶绿素的积累、微藻的生长和油脂的积累。经过14 d 培养后, 当初始锰离子的添加量为2.72 mg/L 时, 斜生栅藻的生物量和细胞内油脂含量分别达到2.9 g/L 和细胞干重的55.1%, 细胞内油脂含量比对照组提高了11%; 同时, 单位水体中油脂的产量达到了1.6 g/L, 比对照组提高了14%, 但改变锰离子的初始浓度并不对斜生栅藻脂肪酸的组成产生明显影响。  相似文献

Dissolved and particulate manganese in seawater samples derived from the English Channel has been analyzed using graphite furnace atomic absorption (GFAAS), and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP—AES) spectroscopies. Because of the high contents of carbonate minerals found in the suspended matter samples, the English Channel constitutes an ideal field area for the study of the Mn2+/Ca2+/CaCO3 system. Owing to the chemical speciation of particulate manganese and the combined use of the X-ray diffraction and electron spin resonance spectroscopy we have shown the importance of the carbonate phase in the stabilization of manganese (II). This has been confirmed by p-pH measurements in the field. All these studies have also indicated that: (1) manganese is associated with calcite in the form of a solid solution, MnxCa1−xCO3; and (2) significant increases in the concentrations of particulate manganese, especially in offshore waters, occur in summer. This seasonal phenomenon has been attributed to the proliferation of coccolithophorids, which are known to be covered with calcified skeletons at high specific surface areas. To appraise the implication of the coccolithophorid-blooms phenomenon on the Mn2+/Ca2+/CaCO3 system, we have used the manganese distribution coefficient, Di, between the liquid phase and CaCO3 particles. Overall we have shown that: (1) Di in summer (i.e. when coccoliths considered as very fine-grained calcite are abundant) is much higher than that obtained in winter; and (2) in the vicinity of the French coast, Di does not vary significantly even in summer. This is because of the high content of chalk-derived particles found in the near-shore waters.  相似文献

对南海南部25个表层沉积样进行了生物硅的测定分析,试图揭示南海南部表层沉积生物硅的分布及其对现代海洋环境的指示意义,以便为古海洋学研究提供进一步的科学依据。研究发现,表层沉积物中生物硅含量与其所处水深呈显著正相关关系,相关系数达到0.782。陆架浅水区表层沉积物中生物硅含量非常低,不能反映表层水体中硅质生物生产力情况,这可能与沉积类型和陆源物质输入影响有关。深水区表层沉积物中生物硅的含量分布表明,其不仅能反映出表层水体中硅质生物的古生产力水平,而且还能指示上升流的强弱,从而进一步证实了利用沉积物中生物硅含量来追踪上升流发育和变化的有效性与可信度。研究结果还显示,在研究区域中北部表层沉积生物硅中放射虫和海绵骨针较硅藻占有更大的比重,这可能是由于硅藻易被溶解并易被其他生物体摄食的缘故。在有上升流发育的海域,放射虫、硅藻和海绵骨针基本上均表现出较高的丰度,这与高的生物硅含量相一致。  相似文献

A method is described for the determination of organic carbon in liquid seawater samples by combustion at a high temperature. Although the method is not easy to perform, it has been successfully employed for a direct comparison to the standard method of persulfate oxidation. With seawater from the central western North Atlantic Ocean, the standard method measured an average of 78% as much carbon as the high temperature method. This indicates organic matter in seawater that is resistant to oxidation by persulfate; some of it appears to be of a colloidal nature. The persulfate resistant organic matter is most noticeable in a region below the surface 100 m and seems to decrease slowly with depth, indicating deep ocean biological utilization of organic matter. Due to a possible procedural error in the standard persulfate oxidation method, the differences indicated here may actually be conservative and the content of total organic carbon in the sea may be as much as twice as high as has been indicated by previous estimates.  相似文献

Sediment organic and metal chemistry, benthic infauna and tissue contaminants surveys have been conducted over 19 years before and following tailings deposition from a metal (Mo, Pb, Zn) mine in Alice Arm, a British Columbia fjord. We found changes in benthic fauna and habitat after tailings disposal to be predictable in terms of sediment chemistry and faunal recolonization. What was not predictable was the timing and extent of slope failure or resuspension following abandonment. These events can have essentially the same or greater effect than the initial tailings disposal and produce long-term unpredictability particular to cases of submarine disposal on slopes. The present study focused on the submarine deposition of 4 x 10(6) tonnes of tailings during an 18-months period ending October 1982. When the mine closed, gross defaunation had occurred at three stations in the tailings path, and two others showed recent defaunation and recolonization. A year later, a large tailings slump near the outfall transported tailings to the deep basin; fauna were impoverished both in the slump region and through most of the deep basin. Declining metal concentrations in surface sediments was accompanied by considerable recovery of fauna 3 years after the mine closed. Nevertheless, fauna at the three stations defaunated at the time of mine closure could still be statistically distinguished from all other stations due to high abundances of small opportunistic polychaetes and bivalves. A resuspension in tailings between 1988 and 1990 coincided with a moderate decline in abundance of all macrofauna taxa. From 1989 to 1995 recovery toward natural sediment conditions was evident as increasing organic content together with the highest faunal biomass values found during the study. Small polychaetes were the first recolonizers in defaunated areas, whereas small bivalves were more tolerant of moderate tailings deposition. By 1989 and 1995 small colonizers had declined and amphipods and larger echinoderms had increased. Dominant species patterns and exceptionally high biomass values in 1995 show that the largest fauna did not recover until much later than smaller taxa. One genus of bivalve (Yoldia spp.) accumulated metals in a pattern similar to the sediment chemistry, indicating that the metals from the most recent mine had entered the benthic food chain. It is not possible to tell from this study whether biota were affected by toxicity from metals. However, many of the observed biotic effects could be caused by physical disruption from tailings.  相似文献

随着全球变暖的加剧,北极陆架边缘海碳的源汇过程对全球碳循环的影响及其气候环境效应日益显著。拉普捷夫海作为北冰洋典型的陆架边缘海,在大河、海冰、海洋初级生产力及海岸侵蚀的影响下,该区沉积有机碳的来源、输运和埋藏等过程独具特色。本文基于2018年中俄第二次北极联合科考获得的悬浮颗粒物样品和水文资料,研究了夏末秋初拉普捷夫海颗粒有机碳的分布特征、来源及其影响因素。结果表明,颗粒有机碳(POC)的浓度位于35.27~1 185.58 μg/L之间,平均为172.65 μg/L。受河流输入、海岸侵蚀和海洋初级生产力的影响,表层POC浓度分布呈现近岸高、远岸低趋势;底层POC浓度分布主要受控于沉积再悬浮作用,高浓度POC出现在勒拿河三角洲的东部区域。总悬浮颗粒物浓度与POC浓度总体呈显著正相关,显示出其对POC空间分布的直接影响,且两者在底层中的相关性要高于表层,表明不同层位的POC可能存在来源差异。研究区POC的δ13C值处于?31.03‰~?25.79‰之间,表层δ13C值较底层明显偏负,且部分站位的δ13C值甚至低于周边陆源有机碳的端元,这反映了可能除陆源输入的贡献外,近海浮游植物直接利用大量陆源有机质降解产生的溶解无机碳的过程也对该区域POC的供应和来源解析具有重要的影响。  相似文献

测定了湛江湾海域20个站位表层沉积物中的酸可挥发性硫(AVS)、同步浸提重金属(SEM)、TOC含量和Eh值,对AVS、SEM含量的平面分布及AVS与SEM、TOC含量、Eh值的相互关系进行了分析.结果表明:该海域表层沉积物中AVS含量范围为0.004~0.547μmol/g,平均值为0.155μmol/g,SEM含量范围为2.10~4.27μmol/g,平均值为3.32μmol/g,相对其他海域湛江湾海域沉积物表现出AVS含量较低,SEM含量较高的特征.AVS与SEM含量平面分布较一致,湾顶的含量都较高,含量均值分别为0.361和3.52μmol/g,特呈岛以南到湾口呈逐渐减小的明显趋势.调查海域沉积物AVS与TOC含量呈显著正相关,与Eh值呈显著负相关,说明高有机质含量、低氧化还原电位沉积环境有利于AVS的生成.20个站位CSEM5-CAVS的差值均为0〈(CSEM5-CAVS)〈5,说明该海域可能存在重金属的中等毒性生态风险.  相似文献
