Article Abstract

In order to solve the identification problem of oil pollutants containing micro content, the fluorescence characteristics of oil samples were studied using fluorescence excitation emission matrix spectra (EEMs) combined with parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis. According to the conventional standard of oil content in water, simulated the component of oil pollution in I-V water was simulated by preparing samples of CCL4 with oil content. Firstly, measured the EEMs of 97# gasoline, 0# diesel, kerosene and CCL4 were measured individually, then the EEMs of 97# gasoline, 0# diesel, and kerosene in CCL4 were measured, and finally, the EEMs of the composite sample with all three oil contents in CCL4 were measured. The EEMs of the composite sample were superimposed by the EEMs of all its different components. It is therefore difficult to analyze the fluorescence component by chemical separation or simple fluorescence analysis. Since the EEMs of each oil component are already measured, we used the PARAFAC analysis to decompose the EEMs of the composite sample, and then extract the concentration ratio of each component. In this work, we solved the problem of identifying and quantifying the main micro-content petroleum pollutant in composite oil samples using EEMs and PARAFAC analysis.

Background: When using semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) for single-analyte sensing, recognition is commonly achieved through interactions with capping ligands attached to the QDs surface. These ligands form an organic layer that provides stability in solution and assures selectivity by binding the target analyte via surface functional groups. However, a common analytical challenge arises in the subsequent stage of the QD-based sensing scheme.

Excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy offers rapid and informative water monitoring, but its reliability is limited by chemical composition variability, which disrupts the relationship between fluorescence signals and contaminant concentrations. Recognizing this limitation, the lack of a robust and physically interpretable tool for assessing prediction reliability has become a critical bottleneck. In this work, the composition and photophysical inconsistencies among fluorescent compounds underlying the same fluorophore signal were identified as key sources of predictive inaccuracy.

The degradation of rubber seals (RS) in chlorinated water within the water distribution system has been confirmed, yet there is a lack of research exploring the aging effects of different disinfection conditions on RS surfaces in drinking water distribution systems. This study investigates the impact of various disinfection factors, including disinfectant type, dose, and pH, on RS degradation in chlorinated water. It employs parallel factor analysis of fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (PARAFAC-EEM) and two-dimensional correlation analysis of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (2D-FTIR-COS).

Graphene oxide (GO), due to its exceptional physicochemical properties, is widely used in industrial and agricultural fields and can exist as nanocolloid of GO (nGO) in aquatic environments. Dissolved organic matter (DOM), a major component of natural organic matter, significantly influences the environmental fate of nGO. However, their interaction mechanisms remain unclear.

Soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a vital and indispensable role in terrestrial ecosystems due to its high reactivity and remarkable mobility. The present study was conducted to determine the vertical characteristics of DOM derived from soil incorporated with sludge composting after 210-day of winter wheat cultivation, using UV-visible and excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) coupled with parallel factor (PARAFAC) modeling. Our findings showed that the amounts of DOM released from the soils amended by sludge composting underwent a significant change from 0.
