Abstract
Coal has always been the main source of energy in China, accounting for more than 60% of primary energy production and consumption. As a result of coal mining, coal industry agglomerations such as mining, coal chemical industry, and so on have been gradually formed, and there are many types of industries in the agglomerations, complex sources of pollutants, and sensitive soil and water environments, and all kinds of industrial sites and solid waste dumps of coal-related industries may pollute the soil and groundwater, and have a certain impact on the ecological environment. However, at present, there is a lack of a targeted region-wide pollution risk management technology system for the polluted sites in the agglomeration area, therefore, it is particularly important to construct a scientific and complete soil-groundwater risk management system and propose more targeted and effective control strategies for the polluted sites in the coal industry agglomeration area. Based on the domestic and international experience and historical data, this paper takes the coal industry cluster area as the research object classifies the land in the area according to the land use type into construction land, agricultural land, and another ecological land, and carries out the risk zoning and grading based on the dosage-effect model and the potential ecological hazard index method respectively, assesses the appropriateness, feasibility, and necessity of the implementation of risk control for the polluted plots, and then designs and develops a risk control decision-making framework by using the hierarchical analysis method. Hierarchical analysis was used to design and develop a decision-making framework for risk management, and finally, the optimal risk management and remediation strategy was proposed based on the AHP + TOPSIS algorithm, which combined with the contaminated land conditions to propose a suitable solution.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Geochemistry and Health publishes original research papers and review papers across the broad field of environmental geochemistry. Environmental geochemistry and health establishes and explains links between the natural or disturbed chemical composition of the earth’s surface and the health of plants, animals and people.
Beneficial elements regulate or promote enzymatic and hormonal activity whereas other elements may be toxic. Bedrock geochemistry controls the composition of soil and hence that of water and vegetation. Environmental issues, such as pollution, arising from the extraction and use of mineral resources, are discussed. The effects of contaminants introduced into the earth’s geochemical systems are examined. Geochemical surveys of soil, water and plants show how major and trace elements are distributed geographically. Associated epidemiological studies reveal the possibility of causal links between the natural or disturbed geochemical environment and disease. Experimental research illuminates the nature or consequences of natural or disturbed geochemical processes.
The journal particularly welcomes novel research linking environmental geochemistry and health issues on such topics as: heavy metals (including mercury), persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and mixed chemicals emitted through human activities, such as uncontrolled recycling of electronic-waste; waste recycling; surface-atmospheric interaction processes (natural and anthropogenic emissions, vertical transport, deposition, and physical-chemical interaction) of gases and aerosols; phytoremediation/restoration of contaminated sites; food contamination and safety; environmental effects of medicines; effects and toxicity of mixed pollutants; speciation of heavy metals/metalloids; effects of mining; disturbed geochemistry from human behavior, natural or man-made hazards; particle and nanoparticle toxicology; risk and the vulnerability of populations, etc.
