Book FATE AND DISPOSITION OF TRICHLOROETHYLENE IN SURFACE SOILS

Download or read book FATE AND DISPOSITION OF TRICHLOROETHYLENE IN SURFACE SOILS written by Thomas Joseph Walker and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a widely detected contaminant in groundwater. This study investigated fate of TCE in two similar soils with differing organic carbon contents. TCE was applied to soil columns in one 5 or 10 m1 quantity, then eluted with 50 or 100 m1 of water/day. The 1.4% organic carbon soil retarded TCE elution more than did the 0.53% soil. Biodegradation of TCE in the soils, based on effluent TCE and chlorides, was not enhanced by addition of ammonia. Warburg studies showed TCE inhibited biological activity in unacclimated soil. Acclimated soil of both types from 2.5 and 15 inch depths showed degradation of TCE at 55 mg/1 but not 110 or 550 mg/1. No evidence of cis or trans-1,2-dichloroethylene was found in column effluents. Degradation (biological and abiotic) accounted for 0.3% or less of TCE. Volatilization accounted for 15.6-32.8% of TCE applied.

Book Bioavailability of Contaminants in Soils and Sediments

Download or read book Bioavailability of Contaminants in Soils and Sediments written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-05-03 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioavailability refers to the extent to which humans and ecological receptors are exposed to contaminants in soil or sediment. The concept of bioavailability has recently piqued the interest of the hazardous waste industry as an important consideration in deciding how much waste to clean up. The rationale is that if contaminants in soil and sediment are not bioavailable, then more contaminant mass can be left in place without creating additional risk. A new NRC report notes that the potential for the consideration of bioavailability to influence decision-making is greatest where certain chemical, environmental, and regulatory factors align. The current use of bioavailability in risk assessment and hazardous waste cleanup regulations is demystified, and acceptable tools and models for bioavailability assessment are discussed and ranked according to seven criteria. Finally, the intimate link between bioavailability and bioremediation is explored. The report concludes with suggestions for moving bioavailability forward in the regulatory arena for both soil and sediment cleanup.

Book Organic Compounds in Soils  Sediments   Sludges

Download or read book Organic Compounds in Soils Sediments Sludges written by T Roy Crompton and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing awareness of the effects of pollutants in the eco-system and on the development of suitable methods of analysis has stimulated a lot of research recently. This volume comprehensively discusses the range of methods available for the analysis and determination of organic compounds in soils, river and marine sediments and industrial sludges. A review is provided of the instrumentation used in soil and sediment laboratories and an indication of the types of organics that can be determined by each technique. Subsequent chapters discuss the analysis of various types of organics in a logical and systematic manner. Guidance is provided on the applicability of techniques in certain environments, the advantages and disadvantages of using one method over another, likely interference, the sensitivity of particular techniques, and detection limits. The work will be of interest to agricultural chemists, agriculturists concerned with ways in which organic chemicals used in crop or soil treatment permeate the ecosystem and to biologists and scientists involved in fish, plant and insect life. Toxicologists, public health workers, oceanographers, and environmentalists will also find the book beneficial.
