In this study, the occurrence, spatial distribution, sources, and ecological risks of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the surface waters of the Lingang hybrid constructed wetland were systematically investigated. Twenty-three PFASs were analyzed from 7 representative sampling zones. The obtained results indicated that PFBA, PFPeA, PFHxA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFBS, PFOS, and HFPO-DA were frequently detected; and PFBA, PFOA, and PFOS were the dominant PFASs with the relative abundances in ranges of 26.91 to 52.26%, 11.79 to 28.79%, and 0 to 31.98%, respectively. The total concentrations of 8 PFASs (ΣPFASs) ranged from 25.9 to 56.6 ng/L, and the highest concentration was observed in subsurface flow wetland. Moreover, HFPO-DA with high toxicity was detected in wetlands for the first time. Based on the principal component analysis-multiple linear regression (PCA-MLR) analysis, three sources and their contributions were fluoropolymer processing aids (67.6%), fluororesin coatings and metal plating (17.9%), and food packaging materials and atmospheric precipitation (14.5%), respectively. According to the risk quotients (RQs), the ecological risk of 8 PFASs was low to the aquatic organisms.
本研究系统调查了临港混合人工湿地地表水的全氟烷基物质(PFASs)的发生、空间分布、来源和生态风险。从 7 个代表性采样区分析了 23 种 PFASs。结果表明,频繁检测到 PFBA、PFPeA、PFHxA、PFHpA、PFOA、PFBS、PFOS 和 HFPO-DA;PFBA、PFOA 和 PFOS 是主要的 PFASs,相对丰度范围分别为 26.91%至 52.26%、11.79%至 28.79%和 0 至 31.98%。8 种 PFASs(ΣPFASs)的总浓度范围为 25.9 至 56.6ng/L,最高浓度出现在地下流湿地。此外,湿地中首次检测到具有高毒性的 HFPO-DA。基于主成分分析-多元线性回归(PCA-MLR)分析,三个来源及其贡献分别为氟聚合物加工助剂(67.6%)、氟树脂涂料和金属电镀(17.9%)和食品包装材料和大气降水(14.5%)。根据风险商数(RQs),8 种 PFASs 对水生生物的生态风险较低。
