Abstract
Industrialization and urbanization have led to increasing levels of PAH pollution in highly urbanized estuaries and their adjacent coastal areas globally. This study focused on the adjacent coastal area of the Yellow River Estuary (YRE) and collected surface seawater, surface sediment, and clams Ruditapes philippinarum and Mactra veneriformis at four sites (S1 to S4) in May, August, and October 2021 to analyze the source-specific ecological and health risks and bioeffects. The findings revealed that the main sources of PAHs were traffic emission (25.2% to 28.5%), petroleum sources (23.3% to 29.5%), coal combustion (24.7% to 27.5%), and biomass combustion (19.8% to 20.7%). Further, the PMF-RQ and PMF-ILCR analyses indicated that traffic emission was the primary contributor to ecological risks in seawater and health risks in both clam species, while coal combustion was the major contributor in sediment. Taken together, it is recommended to implement control strategies for PAH pollution following the priority order: traffic > coal > petroleum > biomass, to reduce the content and risk of PAHs in the YRE.

Li Z, Qi R, Li Y, Miao J, Li Y, Zhang M, He Z, Zhang N, Pan L. The ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars: Can it help control prospective marine pollution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Shandong Province, China? JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 460:132451. [PMID: 37669606 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132451] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023]
Abstract
The constantly increasing amount of road vehicles causes massive exhaust emissions of pollutants, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), necessitating a global responsibility to implement the policy of the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars. Here, we assessed the policy control efficiency on marine pollution of PAHs in China through scenario modeling and prediction models, based on pollution monitoring, risk assessment, and source apportionment of PAHs in typical bays of Shandong Province. The results showed that in 2021, the pollution risk levels were relatively low (HI: 0.008-0.068, M-ERM-Q: 0.001-0.016, IBR: 1.23-2.69, ILCR: 8.11 ×10-6-1.99 ×10-5), and PAHs were mainly derived from traffic emissions (24.9%-35.2%), coal combustion (25.2%-32.9%), petroleum (17.2%-28.9%), and biomass combustion (17.6%-22.8%). In 2050, the predicted decrease of pollution risk values after the implementation of the policy was significant (12%-26%), and the gap between 2021 and 2050 was also significantly huge (18%-85%) without considering possible substitution of conventional energy. Collectively, this study built systematic approaches for assessing prospective marine pollution of PAHs. However, due to the particularity of Shandong Province, i.e., its national predominance of conventional energy consumption, the policy may be more effective when it comes to other coastal areas worldwide, calling for a larger scale research.

Ferreira NM, Coutinho R, de Oliveira LS. Emerging studies on oil pollution biomonitoring: A systematic review. MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2023; 192:115081. [PMID: 37236096 DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2023.115081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2022] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
In the last decade, several methods were applied to monitor the impact of oil pollution on marine organisms. Recent studies showed an eminent need to standardize these methods to produce comparable results. Here we present the first thorough systematic review of the literature on oil pollution monitoring methods in the last decade. The literature search resulted on 390 selected original articles, categorized according to the analytical method employed. Except for Ecosystem-level analyses, most methods are used on short-term studies. The combination of Biomarker and Bioaccumulation analysis is the most frequently adopted strategy for oil pollution biomonitoring, followed by Omic analyses. This systematic review describes the principles of the most frequently used monitoring tools, presents their advantages, limitations, and main findings and, as such, could be used as a guideline for future researches on the field.
