However, little is known about the effects of AMD leakage on soil physicochemical properties and bacterial communities in ecologically fragile desert steppe soils, especially in the soil profile. Therefore, an AMD-contaminated profile and clean profile were used as research objects respectively to investigate the effects of AMD on soil physicochemical properties and bacterial community composition, structure, and interactions in soil layers at different depths of desert grassland and, based on this, to analyze the driving factors of bacterial community changes. The results showed that AMD significantly decreased the pH and increased electrical conductivity （EC） and heavy metal content in the upper （0-40 cm） soil layer of the profile. The AMD-contaminated profile bacteria were dominated by Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacterota, whereas clean profile bacteria were dominated by Firmicutes and Bacteroidota, with <i>Thermithiobacillus</i> and <i>Alloprevotella</i> being the biomarkers for the contaminated and clean profiles, respectively. AMD contamination significantly reduced bacterial diversity and significantly altered bacterial community structure in the upper soil layers of the profile. The results of redundancy analysis showed that soil physicochemical properties explained 57.21% of the variation in bacterial community changes, with EC, TP, TN, As, Zn, and Pb being the main drivers of bacterial community changes. Network analyses showed that AMD contamination increased profile complexity, modularity, and intra-community competition, thereby improving bacterial community stability and resilience.

The results demonstrated that the ECPTS improved the level of pollution reduction and carbon abatement in pilot areas. Specifically, the ECPTS led to a reduction of 13.3% in CO₂ emissions and 3.1% in PM_2.5 concentration in the pilot areas and resulted in an overall improvement of pollution reduction and carbon abatement by 0.237 units. Mechanism analysis revealed that energy efficiency served as a pathway through which the ECPTS empowered the synergistic enhancement of pollution reduction and carbon abatement. Moreover, the strengthening of local government environmental protection goals enhanced the pollution reduction and carbon abatement effects of the ECPTS.

To study the emission characteristics of VOCs from the wooden furniture-manufacturing industry and associated environmental impacts, nine typical wooden furniture manufacturers in China were selected to carry out sample collection and VOCs detection. The maximum incremental reactivity （MIR） method and secondary organic aerosol （SOA） formation potential method were used to quantify the corresponding contributions to the generation of O₃ and SOA. The results showed that： ① The concentrations of VOCs emitted from different types of coating exhaust gas were different. The emission concentration of VOCs in solvent-based coating exhaust gas was significantly higher than that in water-based coating exhaust gas and ultra-violet （UV） coating exhaust gas, and the VOCs emission concentrations ranged between 2.82 - 155.37, 1.13 - 104.45, and 0.57 - 1.15 mg·m^-3, respectively. ② The main organic group in solvent-based coating exhaust gas was esters, accounting for 45.88%, and butyl acetate （31.07%） was the main VOCs species. The main organic group in water-based coating exhaust gas and UV coating exhaust gas was alcohols, and the main VOCs species in water-based coating exhaust gas and UV coating exhaust gas were both ethanol, accounting for 46.63% and 34.32%, respectively. ③ The OFP of VOCs emitted by solvent-based coating, water-based coating, and UV coating were 149.23, 50.90, and 1.87 mg·m^-3, respectively, and the primary contributing components of OFP of different types of coating were <i>m</i>/<i>p</i>-xylene （26.61%）, ethanol （36.35%）, and ethanol （23.98%）, respectively. ④ The SOA of VOCs emitted by solvent-based coating, water-based coating, and UV coating were 0.76, 0.25, and 0.01 mg·m^-3, respectively.
