8.2 Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Results

8.2.1 Groundwater Environmental Quality Assessment Standards

Currently, there is no risk-based groundwater risk screening standard in China. The Technical Guidelines for Site Environmental Investigation (HJ 25.1-2019) released by ***** in China stipulate the use of the "Groundwater Quality Standard" (GB/T 14848-2017) as the groundwater screening standard. Therefore, the relevant standard limits in the national standard "Groundwater Quality Standards" (GB/T14848-2017) are prioritized for the evaluation of groundwater environmental quality in this monitoring. The Quality Standard for Groundwater (GB/T14848-2017) was issued by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China and the National Standardization Administration of China on October 14, 2017, and will be implemented soon on May 1, 2018. The new standard has been revised in conjunction with the revised GB 5749-2006 "Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water", the scientific research achievements of the Ministry of Land and Resources in the field of groundwater in the past 20 years, and international research achievements. The number of indicators has been increased, and the water quality monitoring factor indicators have increased from 39 in GB/T 14848-1993 to 93, an increase of 54 items; Adjusted 20 indicator classification limits and directly adopted 19 indicator classification limits; Reduced comprehensive evaluation regulations, making the standards more widely applicable. Based on the quality status of groundwater in China and human health risks, referring to the quality requirements for drinking water, industrial, agricultural and other water uses, and based on the content of each component (excluding pH), groundwater quality is divided into five categories: Class I: groundwater has low chemical composition content and is suitable for various purposes; Class II: Groundwater has a low content of chemical components and is suitable for various purposes; Class III: Groundwater with moderate chemical composition content, based on GB5749-2006, mainly suitable for centralized domestic drinking water sources and industrial and agricultural water use; Class IV: Groundwater has a high content of chemical components, and the quality requirements for agricultural and industrial water use are as follows:

Based on a certain level of human health risk, it is suitable for agricultural and some industrial water use, and can be used as domestic drinking water after appropriate treatment; Class V: Groundwater has a high content of chemical components and is not suitable as a source of drinking water for daily use.

Based on the fact that the monitored land is for industrial use and the future groundwater will not be developed and utilized, the Class IV standard in the "Groundwater Quality Standard" (GB/T 14848-2017) is adopted for the evaluation of groundwater environmental quality in this self monitoring. The specific standard limits are shown in Table 8.2-1.

8.2.2 Monitoring results of each point

In this monitoring, 5 groundwater monitoring wells (including 1 control well) were constructed in the factory area, 5 samples were collected, and 1 parallel sample was set up. According to the monitoring results, multiple indicators in groundwater samples have been detected to varying degrees. The specific results are shown in Annex 2. The summary of the detection rates of pollutants in groundwater samples is shown in Table 8.2-2.

446

8.2.3 Analysis of monitoring results

A total of 6 groundwater samples were collected within the project site, and the monitoring indicators cover the "Groundwater Quality Standards" (GB/T

35 sensory shapes, general chemical indicators, toxicological indicators, etc. in 14848-2017, 45 items in Table 1 of the "Soil Environmental Quality Construction Land Soil Pollution Risk Control Standard (Trial)" (GB36600-2018), and 23 water quality indicators were detected, including turbidity, pH, dissolved solids, total hardness, chloride, sulfate, permanganate index, ammonia nitrogen, fluoride, nitrate, etc Nitrite, iron, manganese, sodium, aluminum, zinc, copper, nickel, arsenic, iodide, dichloromethane, volatile phenols, and petroleum hydrocarbons; No other indicators were detected or below the detection limit. The detection rate of turbidity, pH, soluble solids, total hardness, chloride, permanganate index, ammonia nitrogen, fluoride, nitrate, sodium, aluminum, zinc, copper, nickel, and arsenic is 100%. Except for the total hardness index in W3 groundwater well exceeding the Class IV water standard, all other indicators meet the Class IV water standard in the "Groundwater Quality Standard" (GB/T 14848-2017). The detection rate of dichloromethane is 83.33%, meeting the Class IV water quality standard; The detection rate of petroleum hydrocarbons, volatile phenols, iodides, iron, manganese, and sulfates is 66.67%, among which the manganese in W0, W1, and W3 groundwater exceeds the Class IV water standard in the "Groundwater Quality Standard" (GB/T 14848-2017), with a 50% exceeding standard; The detection rate of petroleum hydrocarbons and nitrite nitrogen is 33.33%, meeting the Class IV water standard. In this monitoring, groundwater levels in W0, W1, and W3 all exceeded the standard. Among them, W0, W1, and W3 are manganese levels exceeding the standard. W0 is the control point, W1 is the southern area of Class A factory building, and W3 is the vicinity of the accident pool. The surrounding areas of the three groundwater wells are well hardened and there is no leakage. Moreover, W0 is located in the upstream area of groundwater, so it is speculated that the manganese level exceeding the standard may be caused by the high manganese content in the groundwater in the region; In addition, the total hardness index in W3 exceeds the standard by 0.078 times, and the other several points are relatively close to the Class IV water standard. Therefore, it is speculated that the exceeding of this index is also due to the high total hardness of the region. In summary, the internal soil and groundwater conditions of Jiangsu Aimou Optoelectronic Materials Co., Ltd. are generally good, but some indicators of groundwater have exceeded Class IV water conditions. Therefore, it is recommended not to use groundwater in this area as drinking water. At the same time, regular monitoring of soil and groundwater should be carried out in accordance with relevant soil and groundwater standards in the future to determine whether the groundwater exceeds the standard and has expanded.


10 Conclusion and Measures

10.1 Monitoring Conclusion

In the soil and groundwater monitoring within the factory area of Jiangsu Aimou Optoelectronic Materials Co., Ltd., the characteristic pollutants such as petroleum hydrocarbons (C10~C40) and zinc in the soil, as well as the basic 45 items that must be tested in GB36600, did not exceed the soil pollution risk screening value for Class II land in GB36600-2018.

Turbidity, pH, dissolved solids, total hardness, chloride, sulfate, permanganate index 23 indicators, including ammonia nitrogen, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, iron, manganese, sodium, aluminum, zinc, copper, nickel, arsenic, iodide, dichloromethane, volatile phenols, and petroleum hydrocarbons, have been detected. Among them, the total hardness in W3 underground water wells exceeds the Class IV water quality standard of GB/T14848-2020, and the manganese in W0, W1, and W3 underground water all exceeds the Class IV water quality standard of the "Groundwater Quality Standard" (GB/T 14848-2017), All indicators in other groundwater have not exceeded the groundwater Class IV water standard, which may be due to the overall high level of these indicators in the regional groundwater. In addition, the detection values of characteristic pollutants such as petroleum hydrocarbons C10~C40 are also lower than the screening values for Class II land pollution risk control in Shanghai's construction land.

Therefore, the pollution risk of surface soil and groundwater in the factory area of Jiangsu Aimou Optoelectronic Materials Co., Ltd. is currently within an acceptable range, but groundwater is not recommended for use as drinking water.



10.2 Main measures and reasons to be taken by enterprises in response to monitoring results

(1) Establish and improve a system for identifying and rectifying potential soil pollution hazards

In addition to conducting a comprehensive and systematic investigation of soil pollution hazards every 2-3 years in accordance with the "Guidelines for the Investigation of Soil Pollution Hazards in Key Regulatory Units (Trial)", enterprises should regularly conduct self inspections of key areas and facilities such as production areas, hazardous material warehouses, hazardous waste temporary storage rooms, underground rainwater and sewage pipelines, and pools within the factory area every year, and promptly rectify any discovered pollution hazards, truthfully record the investigation and rectification of hazards, Form archive files for future reference. At the same time, enterprises also need to conduct irregular inspections of hidden dangers based on their own production practices, promptly rectify the identified problems, and form documents for future reference.

(2) Strengthen the management of production activities in production areas

To reduce the risk of soil and groundwater pollution, enterprises should strengthen the management of anti-seepage measures for the ground inside and outside the factory buildings and entrances and exits in the production area. Cracks and damages on the ground should be repaired in a timely manner, and the anti-corrosion layer should be improved.

At the same time, regular special inspections are conducted on the leakage of underground rainwater and sewage pipelines and underground pools within the factory area to prevent secondary pollution of soil and groundwater caused by pollutant leakage and migration.

(3) Strengthen the construction of equipment and facilities to prevent leakage

Enterprises shall design, construct, and install relevant anti-corrosion and leakage prevention facilities and leakage monitoring devices in accordance with the requirements of relevant national standards and regulations, in order to prevent the pollution of soil and groundwater by toxic and harmful substances, including production facilities, storage tanks, underground pipelines, and other facilities that pose a risk of soil and groundwater pollution. The design, construction, and installation of anti-corrosion and leakage prevention facilities and leakage monitoring devices should be archived in a timely manner. If conditions permit, facilities and equipment involving toxic and harmful substances should be designed above ground as much as possible and not directly grounded to reduce the risk of soil and groundwater pollution.
