Book Commercial Surfactants for Remediation

Download or read book Commercial Surfactants for Remediation written by Anu Singh Bisht and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the benefits of using commercially available surfactants, or surface-active agents, for remediation of metal-contaminated soil and sediment. First the book offers theoretical reviews of commercially available surfactants, then it proceeds to a study of various available surfactants for the mobilization of metals. Surfactants representative of amphiphiles discovered in the digestive environment of sediment-ingesting organisms are used to examine the extent and rate of metal (Al, Fe, Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sn, Zn) mobilization from contaminated estuarine sediment. Metals can cause harmful effects to the environment and organisms. It is difficult to treat contaminants that are often tightly bound to the extremely small size of the estuarine sediments. The book also demonstrates the mechanisms of metal mobilization that appear to be related to complexation with monomers and adsorption to micelles of the anionic amphiphiles, and to the denudation of hydrophobic host phases or coatings on the sediment by micelles of both anionic and nonionic surfactants. Readers obtain a better understanding of current commercial surfactants, their impact on the environment, and possible remediation. This transdisciplinary book contributes toward Sustainable Development Goals numbers 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) and 13 (Climate Action) set by the United Nations and is useful for students and teachers of sediment studies, coastal studies, environmental sciences, hydrology, civil engineering, and policy sciences.

Book Surfactant enhanced Electrokinetic Remediation of Hydrocarbon contaminated Soils

Download or read book Surfactant enhanced Electrokinetic Remediation of Hydrocarbon contaminated Soils written by Steven P. Thomas and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concern over soil and groundwater contamination has created a demand for new and efficient remediation technologies. Surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation is an innovative technique which has the potential to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated clay soils faster and more efficiently than conventional remediation methods. The main objectives of this research were to (1) evaluate the efficiency of using surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated soil columns in the laboratory; (2) identify the effect of various physical and chemical factors on the performance of electrokinetic remediation; and (3) develop equations to model surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation. Research was also conducted on expanding and improving the analytical methods using the relatively new solid-phase microextraction technique for the determination of hydrocarbon concentration in water. The soil column experiments indicate surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation with sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) is dominated by electrophoretic transport of micelles. The application of a surfactant increased the current through the soil which led to increased electrolysis of water. Pore fluid flow was also significantly greater in clay columns with an applied voltage potential gradient... Surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation was modelled by adapting the classical advection-dispersion-retardation equation to include a modified retardation factor and electrokinetic effects. The model results were highly dependent on the input parameters chosen. Modelling results indicate that electrophoretic transport of hydrocarbons in SDS micelles is the dominant factor influencing transport during surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation. In order to utilize electroosmotic flow, the voltage potential gradient should be greater than 1 V/cm. Surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation is still an emerging technology and a greater understanding of the factors involved is necessary before decontamination can be confidently applied in the field. However, this research significantly adds to the knowledge of surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation.

Book Fundamentals of Site Remediation

Download or read book Fundamentals of Site Remediation written by John Pichtel and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-07-31 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition discusses chemical and engineering principles as they apply to the cleanup and removal of hazardous chemicals from soil and groundwater. There is emphasis on environmental chemistry, soil science, microbiology, and plant science. The first part of the book provides an overview of the recent history of environmental contamination and the formulation of relevant regulations for hazardous waste site remediation. This part also provides a background for several salient aspects of site remediation (e.g., soil science, the site assessment process). The second part of the book examines field remediation technologies, including phytoremediation, bioremediation, and several chemical and physical technologies. Theory of operation, practical considerations, and possible environmental impacts and other consequences of their use are discussed. Covers both metal- and hydrocarbon-based contamination and remediation Many competitors only address one industry, or source, of contamination—this title provides an overview of all of the sources. Presents both the assessment of contaminated sites and the technologies currently available for environmental cleanup Effective for use in field situations and for academic (i.e., university course) use. Two new chapters: (i) the use of nanomaterials for remediation of contaminated soil and water; and (ii) revegetation of severely disturbed sites.

Download or read book Surfactants and Cosolvents for NAPL Remediation A Technology Practices Manual written by Donald F. Lowe and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1999-03-26 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A $19.3 million Department of Defense grant to Rice University funds the Advanced Applied Technology Demonstration Facility (AATDF). One of the project goals is the development of reduction strategies for nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in the subsurface. Surfactants and Cosolvents for NAPL Remediation records the results of AATDF research. The manual is a guide to the practical application of surfactants/cosolvent for in situ remediation. It is targeted to decision makers and anyone concerned with the design or implementation of these technologies. The book discusses the situational viability of surfactants/cosolvents , the possible results, design, and operation. It includes case studies, step-by-step guidance, and project cost work sheets. The successful results of the AATDF research, as documented Surfactants and Cosolvents for NAPL Remediation, are an invaluable contribution to the future of subsurface remediation. Without source NAPL reduction, the alternative is decades of plume management through pump-and-treat.

Book Surfactants and Their Applications for Remediation of Hydrophobic Organic Contaminants in Soils

Download or read book Surfactants and Their Applications for Remediation of Hydrophobic Organic Contaminants in Soils written by Roger Saint-Fort and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil contaminated with ubiquitous hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) is a worldwide recurring concern arising from their indiscriminate disposal, improper management, and accidental spills. A wide range of traditional remedial strategies have been the common practice. However, these treatment methods have become cost prohibitive, not environmental friendly, and less accepted by society. Surfactant-enhanced remediation technology represents a cost-effective and green technology alternative to remediate such contaminated sites. Surfactant remediation technologies are conducted in-situ or ex-situ as two broad categories, or in combination. Among these technologies are soil flushing, washing, phytoremediation, and bioremediation. More applied research continues to quantify the efficiency of surfactant-enhanced mass transfer phase using a single surfactant solution while their binary blends to remove mixed HOCs in soils are also a focus of interest for research. There is a great potential to develop novel synthetic and biosurfactants that will exhibit higher biodegradability, less toxicity, higher removal efficiency, more economical and more recyclable. This work thus provides a review of the applications and importance of surfactant-enhanced remediation of soil contaminated with HOCs. Relevant environmental factors, soil properties, surfactant chemistry, mechanisms, mass transfer phase, and field designs are summarized and discussed with purposes of providing greater context and understanding of surfactant-enhanced remediation systems.
