The direct determination method of heavy metals, Pb, Cd, Cr, Co, Ni, Zn, As and Sb in food packaging ceramics was studied by using inductive coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Factors influencing the determination were also studied in detail. By choosing the optional operating parameters and appropriate isotopes of the element to be detected, the influence of mass spectrometry interference was conquered effectively. The detection limits were 0.023 microg x L(-1) for Pb, 0.004 microg x L(-1) for Cd, 0.030 microg x L(-1) for Cr, 0.025 microg x L(-1) for Ni, 0.012 microg x L(-1) for Sb, 0.180 microg x L(-1) for Zn, 0.017 microg x L(-1) for As, and 0.002 microg x L(-1) for Co. The recovery rates of the method were between 95.8% and 104.4%. The RSDs were between 1.1% and 3.3%. The method was simple, rapid, precise, convenient and suitable for daily inspection of import and export ceramic ware.

Semi-aerobic Aged-refuse Bioreactor (SAARB) has a good effect on nitrogen removal in leachate, but a strong greenhouse gas (N2O) was generated during the nitrification and denitrification process. The effect of salinity (7-30 g x L(-1)) on the leachate treatment and the N2O production from SAARB system was investigated. Experimental results showed that salinity ranging from 7 to 30 g x L(-1) had no significant effect on COD removal, and the removal efficiency was always more than 85%.

In order to investigate the feasibility of deep denitrification and simultaneous removing phthalate esters (PAEs) in the process of reclaimed water treatment uses three-dimensional biofilm-electrode reactor coupled with sulfur autotrophic deep denitrification technology (3BER-S), the technological characteristics and mechanisms were analyzed based on determining the static adsorption capacity of biofilm cultured active carbon fillers in 3BER-S reactor together with the operation results of dynamic denitrification and simultaneous PAEs removing. The results showed that the average adsorption rates of DBP, DEHP were 85.84% and 97.

An analysis method has been established to test 27 elements (Li, Be, B, Mg, Al, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Sr, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ba, La, Hg, Pb, Bi) in Maca nationality's medicine with microwave digestion-ICP-MS. Sample solutions were analyzed by ICP-MS after microwave digestion, and the contents of elements were calculated according to their calibration curves, and internal standard method was adopted to reduce matrix effect and other interference effects. The experimental results showed that the linear relations of all the elements were very good; the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.

In this paper, a method of determination of trace lead in water by UV-Visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy combined with surfactant and membrane filtration enrichment was proposed. In the NH3 x H2O-NH4Cl buffer solution with pH 8.5, the lead(II) ion would react with dithizone to form the red complex under vigorous stirring, which is hydrophobic and can be enriched by the mixed cellulose ester membrane.
