China is a mountainous country in which geological hazards occurred frequently, especially in the east of China. Except the geology, topography and extreme climate, the large scale human activities have become a major factor to landslides. Typical human activities which induced landslides are fill, cut and underground mining. On the topic of the deformation mechanism and slope stability, taking three different man-made slopes as examples, deformation mechanism and slope stability were studied by several methods, such as field work, numerical modeling and monitor. The details are as following: (1) The numerical modeling approach advantages over other conventional methods such as limit methods, so the numerical modeling is the major tool in this thesis. So far, there is no uniform failure criterion for numerical simulation. The failure criterion were summarized and analyzed firstly, subsequently the appropriate criterion was determinated. (2) Taking 220kV Yanjin transformation substation fill slope as example, the deformable characteristic, unstable mode and laboratory tests were studied systematically. The results show: the slope deformation was probably caused by a combination effect of unfavorable topographic, geological and hydro geological conditions, and external loading due to filling. It was concluded that the creep deformation of the slope was triggered by external loading applied at the back of the slope. In order to define the calculating parameters, a set of consolidated drained (CD) tests, consolidated undrained (CU) tests, repeated direct shear tests and UCS tests were carried out. The stability of the slope before and after reinforcement was assessed using 3D numerical modeling and shear strength reduction technique. The numerical modeling results showed: the factor of safety (FOS) of the slope was 1.10 in the natural state, and reduced to 1.03 after fill, which was close to the critical state and it caused creeping slip or deformation under rainfall. The failure surface in the slope is in active shear failure, whereas tensile failure occurs at the slope crest. After the site was reinforced with piles, the FOS was 1.27. Therefore, the slope is stable after reinforcement measures were taken. (3) The cut slope stability is a complex problem. Taking the left cut slope of Xiangjiaba as example in this thesis, the deformation and slope stability were studied systematically by numerical modeling and monitor methods. The numerical results show: the displacement is gradually increasing along with the cutting, and the largest displacement is 27.5mm which located at the bench between the elevation 340 and 380. Some failure state units distribute near the undermining part and there is no linked failure state occurred from crest to bottom during cutting. After cutting, some failure units appeared at the ground surface between elevation 340 and 360. The increasing tense stress made the disturbed rock failed. The slope is stable after cutting by the monitor method, such as surface monitor, multipoint displacement meter, inclinometer and anchor cable tensometer. (4) The interaction between underground mining and slope stability is a common situation in mountainous. The slope deformation mechanism induced by underground mining may contributed significantly to slope destabilization. The Mabukan slope in xiangjiaba was analyzed to illustrate this. Failure mechanism and the slope stability were presented by numerical modeling and residual deformation monitor. The results show: the roof deformed to the free face and the floor uplift lightly to the free face. The subsidence basin is formed, but the subsidence and the horizontal movement is small, and there is no failure zone occurred. When the underground mining is going on, the roof deformation, subsidence and the horizontal movements begin increasing. The rock deformation near the free face is larger than the ground surface, and the interaction between these coal seams appeared. There are some tensile failures and shear failures occurred on the roof and floor, and a majority of failure is tensile failure. The roof deformation, subsidence and the horizontal movements increased obviously along with the underground mining. The failure characteristic is shear failure which means the tensile stress transformed to the compressive stress. So the underground mining will induced tensile stress first which lead to structure crack, subsequently the compressive stress appeared which result in slippage. The crest was subjected to horizontal tension which made the rock crack along with the joint. The long term residual deformation monitor demonstrates that the slope is stable after the underground mining stopped.

矿山开发造成的生态环境问题是一个世界性的问题,国内外许多学者对此表现出浓厚的兴趣。除矿山开发直接导致的植被破坏和耕地侵蚀等外,研究者更重视有害物质(特别是重金属)释放而导致的环境问题,特别是表生条件下矿山废弃物(矿山尾砂)的堆积,在一系列地球化学因素的作用下:如矿山尾砂的矿物成分 参考、堆积时间、厚度、气候条件及微生物(Rachel,2002)等发生风化作用,从而导致酸性矿山废水(AMD)的产生。蓄纳高浓度的重金属元素,其排放小仅对溪流、河流、湖泊水质及其沉积物产生负而影响,而且有降低土壤环境质量状况的威胁(Barbara Hohn,2005)。 贵州省赫章县是我国著名的土法炼锌集散地,地处贵州西北部,辖内煤炭资源丰富,境内的榨子厂、猫猫厂、天桥铅、锌矿(氧化矿)为“土法炼锌”提供了丰富的原料。其土法炼锌已有300多年的历史,至2000年,已有1000多个土法炼锌“马槽炉”的规模。炼锌中产生的黑色烟尘不仅使周围山坡寸草不生,山坡上、河道边到处倾倒着废渣,而且使许多早作地荒耕。本文试图以该地的土法炼锌为研究对象,探讨土法炼锌中产生的烟尘和废弃物对附近土壤和沉积物的环境影响。 1.1矿山开发中的生态环境影响 矿山的开采在很大程度上改变了矿山原有的环境。矿山开采耗费大量的土地资源,开采后破坏的土地,丧失原有的自然生态系统;废弃物堆置场是周围环境的严重污染源。矿山按其产品性质分类,有冶金矿山(黑色金属、有色金属、稀土元素、放射性元素等)和非金属矿山(煤矿、石料、陶土等);按其开采方式分类,有露天开采矿山和地下开采矿山。不同性质的矿山和不同的开采方式,其对生态环境破坏的过程和特征有很大差异。 矿山开采引起的生态破坏,主要由以下三个过程导致:(1)开采活动对土地的直接破坏,如露天开采会直接毁坏地表土层和植被,地下开采会导致地层塌陷,从而引起土地和植被的破坏:(2)矿山开采过程中的废弃物(如尾矿、矸石等) 需要大面积的堆置场地,从而导致大量占用土地和对堆置场原有生态系统的破坏;(3)矿山废弃物中的毒性成分,可通过径流和大气飘尘,影响周围的土地、水域和大气质量(Ivanova,2001)。 在生态系统层次上,上述三个过程对采矿地区生态的破坏具有三个特征:(1)景观破坏,主要指对地貌的影响;(2)环境质量退化,对所在地区土质、水质,甚至大气质量的影响;(3)生物多样性退化,对原有生物群落的摧毁,及对当地现有生物群落的严重破坏甚至摧毁。 通常,金属矿山引起的环境质量退化以及由此导致的生物多样性退化要比非金属矿山更严重;露天开采的矿山引起的景观破坏和生物多样性退化,要比地下开采的矿山更严重。矿山开发的生态环境影响突出表现在以下几下方面: 1土地的占用与破坏 矿山开采后,将会产出大量的废石、排土和尾砂,例如露天开采1吨矿石通常削离5-10 t覆盖的岩土,堆存它们将需占用大量的土地。据报道美国的明尼苏达州北部,由于大型露天磁铁矿近半世纪的大量开采,致使当地土壤质地退化,如不进行有效的治理将有沙漠化的危险(Othman,1996)。矿区的建设也将不可避免地改变地形、自然景观和植被状况等。土地破坏的后果是:水土流失加剧,淤塞污染水体,增加扬尘,严重影响生态环境。另外,尾矿坝、废石堆场设置不当或管理不严,会造成严重的滑坡或泥石流事故,使大面积的土地受到破坏,造成水体污染,危及人身和财产的安全。 2水体污染 矿山开采后的废石堆成尾矿库若不妥善处理,可能会成为地下水污染源。废矿堆、尾矿库长期处在氧化、风蚀、溶滤过程中,其中的有毒矿物成份或有害物质可以随水转入地下、地表水体和农田、土壤之中,造成地下、地表水体受到化学污染。 采矿工业用水远远小于选矿工业的用水量,但不论是采矿还是选矿,若不注意处理其废水,会造成严重的后果。据报道,由于采矿对水体的污染,使美国长达20600km的水域和449个天然和人工湖泊不再适于养鱼(Antonio Simonetti,2000);在国内也不乏其例,如攀枝花选矿厂(曾清如,1997)有部分尾矿废水排入金沙江,对其造成长期的严重污染。又如东鞍山矿(张宝贵,2002)由于外排废水中含有大量的细粒级悬浮物,使杨柳河的河水呈红色,不仅妨碍水生生物的生长,还影响农业灌溉,成为鞍山地区的一大公害。此外开采硫化矿床时,由于伴生的低品位黄铁矿,在自然堆放过程中,经风化、雨水浸蚀可产生有害酸性水。在我国冶金矿山中因酸性水污染造成的危害是十分严重的,如南山铁矿(许步信,1996)的酸性水波及周围1万hm2农田和渔业生产,多年来共赔偿农业损失费累计约百万元。此外,各金属矿山的外排水中浮悬药剂的污染、硝基苯的污染以及其它重金属的污染也屡见不鲜(Sastre,2002)。 井巷开掘、矿床排水疏干所形成的降压漏斗的水力影响半径有时可达数十公里,可能造成区域性水文环境的破坏,使农牧业缺水受损。另外,疏干碳酸盐围岩含水层之后,其岩溶和溶洞会成为地面塌陷下沉,地面设施被破坏的隐患;而当塌陷区或井巷地表贮水体存在水力的沟通时,则会酿成淹没矿井的重大事故;当岩层疏干影响的设计计划不周时,还可导致露天边坡、台阶的滑动和变形,从而出现相应的灾害后果(李小玉,2004) 3大气污染 在矿山生产中,氧化、风蚀作用可使废石堆场、尾矿库形成一个周期性的尘暴源。此外矿石破碎、筛分和选矿等工序也是主要尘源。矿山对大气的污染还包括公路运输过程中形成的大量扬尘。粉尘污染是冶金矿山生产过程中的一种主要污染类型。在我国,由于矿山粉尘污染而使矿区农牧业受害的情况较多。矿山开发引起的环境生态问题是全球性的问题,越来越受到科学界的关注,己成为环境地球化学研究的一个重要领域。随着对矿产资源需求的不断扩大,矿山废物的排放量大幅度增加,环境生态的恢复难度也在不断增大,因此,在科学界关注的同时,政府也要采取一定的措施来给予支持和提供方便(王文,2003)。 1.2矿区重金属污染研究 1.2.1重金属概念及环境化学行为 通常把密度大于5的金属称为重金属,如隔、铬、铜、镍、铅、锌等,砷虽然不属于金属,但由于对环境的影响与重金属类似,通常也称其为重金属。矿产开采过程中所引起的环境问题较多,特别是土壤的重金属污染(Ahmed,1998)。有害重金属通过各种途径进入土壤,不易随水淋溶,微生物难以降解,植物对其有明显的生物富集作用,影响农作物的品质和产量。土壤污染有较长的潜伏期,具有隐蔽性、不可逆性、普遍性、表聚性等特征(Isabelle,2001) 重金属是一类典型的环境污染物,在自然条件下,除了局部范围重金属含量较高之外,一般土壤中有害重金属含量都小于构成污染的临界值。由于受人类生产活动的影响,例如,农业增产措施如农药、化肥的不断使用,加之工业废水、废气、城市生活垃圾、污水及污泥与畜禽粪便等排入环境,都不断污染土壤,使重金属等在环境中的积累不断积聚。特别是最近几十年来,由于土壤环境中污染物含量不断提高,重金属污染问题已经引起学术界、政府和公众的广泛关注。 1.2.2环境中重金属的来源 重金属可以通过废水、废渣的排放,空气悬浮物的携带与运输,水体中的细微尾矿砂颗粒物的运移,食物链的传递等不同途径来引起环境的污染。污染源有以下几个方面: 工业污染源,尤其是基础工业,特别是采矿和冶炼业是向环境中释放重金属的主要污染源。如20世纪60年代,在日本的富山县神通川流域,由于铅锌冶炼厂排放的含锅废水污染水稻田,居民长期食用含偏稻米和饮用含锅水而造成锅中毒,锅进入人体后破坏人体的骨骼系统,使骨质变脆易折,也就是所谓的“骨痛病(Lorenzo,2000)。 生活污染源,主要是生活垃圾,其中含有的重金属能渗到土壤中,影响到地表水和地下水的质量,生活废水中的有机物可以吸收重金属,用这些水灌溉也可导致土壤污染。 农业污染源,主要来自厩肥、污泥、化肥、农药等,有害成分为其释放的重金属,污染物质主要集中于表层或耕层,它的分布比较广泛。污染物的种类和污染的轻重程度与土地的利用方式和耕作制度有关。 交通污染源,主要为含铅汽油的使用,使机动车排放的尾气污染大气。 自然污染源,土壤母质中的重金属本身含量高,还有火山喷发造成的土壤污染。 就矿区来说,以工业污染源为主,其它次之。 1.2.3环境中重金属的危害 尾矿、矿渣是采矿区土壤重金属的主要来源之一。当这些矿山固体垃圾从地下搬运到地表后,由于所处环境的改变,在自然条件下,极易发生风化作用(物理、化学和生物作用),使大量有毒有害的重金属元素释放出来进入到土壤和水体中,给采矿区及周围环境带来严重的污染。 在雨水等的作用下,地下水和地表水都会受到不同程度的重金属污染。目前世界上受高砷饮水危害的国家和地区包括孟加拉国、印度恒河流域、阿根廷、智利、墨西哥、泰国、美国和中国的台湾、内蒙、山西部分地区。孟加拉国受砷危害人口有35-77百万人,占该国总人口(125百万)的一大半,几十年来联合国投入了大量财力物力进行治理,但收效甚微(Kovalchuk,1996)。有300多年开采历史的我国湖南石门雄黄矿,发生了严重的砷污染,河水砷含量达0.5-14.5 mg•L-1,居民头发砷含量为0.972-2.459ug•L-1。以河水为饮用水源的居民的砷暴露水平达到甚至超过国内外重大慢性砷中毒案例的暴露水平。 有毒气体的排放无疑会直接污染大气。如1996年玻利维亚波托西的波尔科矿山的一座铅锌尾矿坝倒塌,致使大约235,000 t有毒尾矿泥浆(包括砷、氰化物、铅和锌等有害成分)排入皮科马约河的一条支流阿瓜卡斯蒂利亚河中,导致饮用该河水和食用该河水中鱼的3名儿童死亡,其毒性影响到800km的巴拉圭一阿根廷的查科(salomons,1995)。另外,巴西亚马逊河流域附近,约17000km,的大范围金矿开采过程中,汞作为重要提金试剂,易形成合金金齐汞,直接释放进入大气,且向大气的释放量远比向河流和土壤的释放量高,占总释放量的65%-83%( salomons,1995),对人体危害十分严重。西班牙某重金属冶炼厂尾砂坝的倒塌,使得随后的土地开发过程中大气可吸入颗粒中铜和锰的含量增加了17~36%和59一70%(Querol,2000)。 重金属在土壤中的聚集引起的危害更为严重。其进入土壤后,一方面可在植物体中累积,并通过食物链最终转移到人体内,危害人群健康,致畸致癌;另一方面,还可能导致地下水污染,超过一定限度就会危害生态系统,如上述所说的水体和大气的污染。由于重金属污染的范围广,持续时间长,又不易在生物物质循环和能量交换中分解,所以污染土壤的修复与治理迫在眉睫,也是科学界比较关注的问题之一。就世界范围来看,全世界每年平均排放汞115万t,锰1500万t,铜340万t,铅500万t,镍100万(Jane vacalet,1999)。据估计,我国仅重金属污染的耕地面积就达2000万ha,约占耕地总面积的115 ,每年因土壤污染而减产粮食1000万t;另外还有1200万t粮食重金属超标,二者的直接经济损失达200多亿元(陈同斌,1999)。在金属成矿区周围的自然扩散区域内,环境中一般含有较高浓度的重金属,加上开矿过程中的废矿水和尾矿砂,常造成严重的重金属污染问题。据报道,湖南省郴县东坡铅锌矿自然扩散晕区域内的环境污染是以铅、锌、镉、砷为主的多金属污染复合体,水体内的细微尾矿砂颗粒物是重金属的主要迁移载体,且该区域内作物中的铅、镉残留很高(曾清如,1994)。 土壤中重金属的超标同时也会使农作物和其它生物受到危害。杨居荣(1992)发现耐福的甜菜与胡萝卜在对营养元素的吸收上呈现两种不同的特征,即耐镐的甜菜往往对钙、镁、锌、铁元素的吸收量大,而胡萝卜则相反。土壤中锌/锅比例增大可显著地降低菠菜含镉量(宋菲,1996)。己有证据表明,铜矿的冶炼可以增加周围农业系统中的铜含量,使冶炼厂周围紫花首稽和柏树叶片中的铜含量明显增加。华南某矿区周围农田土壤中锌含量达690~4000 mg.kg-1;华北某污灌区土壤中锌含量超过1500 mg•kg-1,长期施用污泥的土壤中锌含量达370-470 mg•kg-1,受汞污染的面积达3.2 × 104 ha,每年生产汞米1.95×105吨。沈阳张士灌区和江西大余县等地区的粮食己经遭受严重的锡污染,其含镉量己经超过诱发“痛痛病”的标准。龙育堂等(1994)研究芝麻对稻田汞净化效果,结果表明:土壤含汞量在5-130 mg•kg-1,范围内,汞对芝麻产量和品质仍未造成显著影响;改种芝麻,土壤汞的年净化率高达41%,土壤的自净恢复年限比种植水稻缩短。食物链中重金属的高度富集最终将威胁到人类健康。

南岭地区是我国最重要的有色、稀有金属矿产资源产地,尤以钨、锡等金属的大规模爆发式成矿而闻名于世,已发现了一大批大型、超大型稀有和有色金属矿床。近年来的研究发现,这些矿床的形成很可能与华南地区中生代发生的大规模地壳拉张、岩石圈伸展减薄以及壳―幔相互作用的独特地质背景有关。本论文以与千里山花岗岩体密切相关的柿竹园钨锡钼铋铅锌矿田(以下简称柿竹园矿田)为研究对象,运用流体包裹体、稳定同位素和稀有气体同位素地球化学等方法,对其成矿流体的物理化学特征、来源及演化进行了研究,并在此基础上探讨了千里山花岗岩体与柿竹园矿田间的成因联系和矿田的成矿作用机制,获得以下主要研究成果: 1. 利用流体包裹体岩相学、显微测温学以及包裹体成分的激光拉曼分析技术,揭示了矿田中柿竹园钨锡钼铋矿床成矿流体的性质和演化特征。研究表明柿竹园钨锡钼铋矿床成矿流体为中高温、中高盐度H2O-NaCl-CaCl2-CO2-CH4-H2S-F体系。成矿流体的均一温度、盐度、密度和压力变化范围均较大,成矿早期夕卡岩阶段和云英岩阶段的流体具有较高的均一温度(239~477℃)和盐度(0~39.08 wt% NaCl eq.),云英岩网脉夕卡岩阶段和后期石英萤石脉阶段均一温度和盐度逐渐降低(分别为160~450℃,1.23~16.53 wt% NaCl eq.和156~340℃,1.23~4.49 wt% NaCl eq.)。夕卡岩阶段发生了流体沸腾作用。流体密度为0.37~1.12 g/cm3,主要集中在0.7~0.9 g/cm3;压力为10~820 bar,一般小于800 bar。野鸡尾锡铜矿床的成矿流体属于中高温度、中等盐度的H2O-NaCl-CaCl2-CO2-CH4-H2S-F型体系,柴山铅锌矿床属中温中等盐度H2O-NaCl-CaCl2-CO2-F体系,其均一温度和压力变化范围也较大。 2. 通过分析主要矿化类型矿石矿物及脉石矿物的C、H、O、S等稳定同位素特征,揭示了柿竹园矿田成矿流体的来源,并对C、O同位素的组成进行了CO2去气、流体混合和水―岩反应的理论模拟。研究表明矿田成矿流体主要来自千里山花岗岩浆,并有大气降水加入。水―岩反应在成矿过程中起着重要作用。 3. 对矿田不同矿化类型矿石矿物黄铁矿、黄铜矿、毒砂、方铅矿等进行了He、Ar同位素研究,其中3He/4He值为0.059~1.662 Ra(Ra为空气的3He/4He值,1 Ra=1.39×10-6),40Ar/36Ar值为289.8~1071.8,表明矿田成矿流体具有壳-幔两端员混合的特征。壳源组分为获得了大量地壳放射成因4He,但获得放射成因40Ar*较少的经过地下循环的低温饱和大气水。而幔源组分来自千里山花岗岩浆流体,表明千里山花岗岩并非传统的S型花岗岩。 4. 在总结前人研究成果的基础上,结合本次研究,建立了柿竹园矿田成矿作用模式:中生代华南岩石圈发生拉张、伸展作用,地幔物质上涌,发生壳幔相互作用,形成千里山花岗岩浆。花岗岩浆充分分异演化形成富含挥发分和成矿元素的成矿流体,与泥盆系碳酸盐岩发生反应而沉淀成矿。成矿过程有大气降水的加入,并发生了流体沸腾作用。

Simultaneous NO reduction and CO oxidation in the presence of O-2,H2O and SO2 over Cu/Mg/AUO (Cu-cat), Ce/Mg/Al/O (Ce-cat) and Cu/Ce/Mg/Al/O (CuCe-cat) were studied. At low temperatures (<340 degreesC), the presence of O-2 or H2O enhanced the activity of CuCe-cat for NO and CO conversions, but significantly suppressed the activity of Cu-cat and Ce-cat, At high temperature (720 degreesC), the presence of O-2 or H2O had no adverse effect on the NO and CO conversions over these catalysts. The addition of SO2 to NO + CO + O-2 + H2O system had no effect on the, reaction of CO + O-2 over Cu-cat, but deactivated this catalyst for NO + CO and CO + H2O reactions; over Ce-cat, all of these reactions of NO + CO, CO + O-2 and CO + H2O were suppressed significantly; over CuCe-cat, NO + CO and CO + O-2 reactions were not affected while the reaction of CO + H2O was slightly inhibited.

The low-temperature heat capacities of trifluoroacetamide were precisely determined with a small sample precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range from 78 to 404 K. A solid-to-solid phase transition, a fusion and a phase transition from a liquid crystalline phase to fully liquid phase have been observed at the temperatures of 336.911+/-0.102, 347.622+/-0.094 and 388.896+/-0.160 K, respectively. The molar enthalpies of these phase transitions as well as the chemical purity of the substance were determined to be 5.576+/-0.004, 11.496+/-0.007, 1.340+/-0.005 kJ mol(-1) and 99.30 mol%, respectively, on the basis of the heat capacity measurements. The molar entropies of the three phase transitions were calculated to be 16.550+/-0.012, 33.071+/-0.029 and 3.447+/-0.027 J mol(-1) K-1, respectively. Further researches of the thermochemical properties for this compound have been carried out by means of TG and DSC techniques. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Two series of sulfided Ni or Co promoted Mo/alumina catalysts, having different Ni or Co loadings, were characterized by their activities for the transformation of cyclopentanone into cyclopentanethiol (flow reactor, 220 degrees C, atmospheric pressure) and for the hydrodesulfurization of dibenzothiophene (flow reactor, 340 degrees C, 3 MPa hydrogen pressure). The addition of the promoter increased significantly the activity of the Mo/alumina catalyst for both reactions, up to a maximum obtained with the catalysts having a (promoter)/(promoter+Mo) molar ratio equal to 0.3-0.4. This increase in activity was due in part to an increase in the hydrogenating properties of the Mo/alumina catalyst. However, an additional modification of the catalyst (basic and nucleophilic properties) must be considered to account for the spectacular effect of the promoter on the rate of the dibenzothiophene direct desulfurization reaction.

Capillary zone electrophoresis was used to monitor the interaction between bilirubin and human serum albumin. Cord blood serum samples were injected directly into an uncoated fused-silica capillary (30 cm x 50 mu m i.d.) and separation was accomplished within 4 min without extensive sample pretreatment. The most suitable running buffer to separate free bilirubin from albumin bound bilirubin was found to contain 1.0 mmol/L EDTA, 5% acetonitrile and 15 mmol/L phosphate with pH adjusted to 8.4. Approximately two bilirubin dianions could be bound per human serum albumin molecule in the cord blood serum. The binding constant was estimated to be 1.1 x 10(5) (L/mol) at 25 degrees C and pH 8.4. The peak area ratio of free bilirubin to total bilirubin can be used to determine the bilirubin binding capacity of cord blood serum for the concentration range of total bilirubin from 204 to 340 mu mol/L using 1:5 diluted cord blood seras.

A monolithic silica based strong cation-exchange stationary phase was successfully prepared for capillary electrochromatography. The monolithic silica matrix from a sol-gel process was chemically modified by treatment with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane followed by a chemical oxidation procedure to produce the desired function. The strong cation-exchange stationary phase was characterized by its substantial and stable electroosmotic flow (EOF), and it was observed that the EOF value of the prepared column remained almost unchanged at different buffer pH values and slowly decreased with increasing phosphate concentration in the mobile phase. The monolithic silica column with strong cation-exchange stationary phase has been successfully employed in the electrochromatographic separation of beta-blockers and alkaloids extracted from traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs). The column efficiencies for the tested beta-blockers varied from 210,000 to 340,000 plates/m. A peak compression effect was observed for atenolol with the mobile phase having a low phosphate concentration.
