The impacts of varying the pH and initial concentrations on Cr(VI) removal by urea-modified biochar (N-HSB) were investigated. The Cr(VI) removal by N-HSB was better described by intra particle diffusion model and pseudo-second order kinetic model under optimal conditions. Furthermore, XPS, FTIR, SEM, and BET analyses were used to verify the pivotal roles of oxygen- and nitrogen-containing functional groups. Electrostatic attraction, redox reaction, and complexation constituted the principal mechanisms facilitating Cr(VI) elimination by N-HSB.

The research includes resistivity and organic carbon content tests on modified reclaimed loess with varying black shale and water contents. Additionally, the electrical properties of these modified soils are investigated across different AC frequencies. The results highlight the significance of soil plasticity and a 1.5% black shale content in influencing reclaimed loess's electrical properties. Moisture content and black shale influence changes in soil conductive paths and resistivity. The abundance of clay minerals in black shale plays a crucial role in altering soil electrical resistivity due to the adsorption of cations in water and the directional transport under an electric field. Considering soil's three-phase composition and diffuse bilayer structure, the study elucidates the mechanism behind changes in the electrical properties of improved reclaimed loess, accounting for water and black shale content.

This groundbreaking technique not only improves crucial soil properties like porosity, water retention capacity, cation exchange capacity, and pH, but also intricately impacts the interaction and retention mechanisms of polluting molecules. In this study, we investigate the dynamic of the herbicide Imazapic when subjected to applying pyrolyzed biochars, specifically at temperatures of 300 and 500 °C, within the context of a low-fertility soil characterized as dystrophic Yellow Ultisol (YUd) in a sugarcane cultivation area in Igarassu-PE, Brazil. The biochars were produced from sugarcane bagasse by pyrolysis process in a muffle furnace. In laboratory conditions, with saturated soil columns under steady-state, analyses of the mechanisms involved in interaction and transport and determining hydrodispersive parameters for Imazapic were performed by the two-site nonequilibrium transport model using the CXTFIT 2.0 program. Samples of YUd soil amended with biochar pyrolyzed at 300 °C presented a negligible interaction with Imazapic. However, adding biochar pyrolyzed at 500 °C (BC500) to the soil samples enhanced the adsorption coefficient and improved the interaction with Imazapic. This research points out that biochar produced from agricultural waste biomass, such as sugarcane bagasse specifically pyrolyzed at 500 °C, offers a potential means to adsorb herbicides, reducing their leaching to deeper layers of the amended soils and the risk of groundwater contamination and potential environmental negative impacts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of contaminant hydrology","volume":"266 ","pages":"Article 104412"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141912860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of MPs and factors controlling their distribution in both water and sediment in the Markanda River, Northwest India. MPs were extracted from sediment and water samples using density separation and classified through fluorescence microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Metal concentrations in river water samples were analyzed using ICP-MS, and their correlation with MP abundance was explored. The results indicated the widespread occurrence of MP pollution across the Markanda River basin, with particle concentrations ranging from 10 to 530 particles L⁻¹ in surface water and 1330–4330 particles kg⁻¹ dry weight (dw) in sediment samples. The variability in MP abundance at sampling sites along the Markanda River courses results from factors such as the proximity of industrial establishments and human habitation, while the influence of grain size on MP distribution appears to be limited. Pellets (88.5 %) and fragments (8.5 %) were the most abundant types of MPs, with polyethylene (45.45 %) and polystyrene (30.9 %) being the dominant forms in water samples. The ICP-MS analysis of heavy metals in water samples indicated elevated levels of As (1.67 to 32.31 ppb) in downstream areas of the river system, influenced by human activities. While metals exhibited correlation with each other, there was a weak association, except for As, with the levels of MPs in the Markanda River. The SEM-EDX analyses to characterize chemical elements absorbed onto the surface of MP showed distinct variations in upstream and downstream sites, with the presence of elements such as Mn, Ni, Cr, Zn, As, Se, and Cu found in downstream areas.

To our knowledge, we were the first to do so. Thereto, we injected silica encapsulated DNA tagged superparamagnetic particles (SiDNAmag) in a homogeneous coarse grain sand tank. At four downstream locations, SiDNAmag concentrations were determined as a function of time. Longitudinal and transverse dispersivity values and associated uncertainties of SiDNAmag were determined using Monte Carlo modelling approach. The parameter associated uncertainties of hydraulic conductivity as well as of the effective porosity estimated from SiDNAmag breakthrough curves were statistically similar to those estimated from salt tracer breakthrough curves. Further, the SiDNAmag dispersivity uncertainty ranges were then statistically compared with the salt tracer (NaCl, and fluorescein) dispersivities. Our results indicated that time to rise, time of peak concentration and shape of the breakthrough curves of SiDNAmag were similar to those of the salt tracer breakthrough curves. Despite the size difference between the salt tracer molecules and SiDNAmag, size exclusion did not occur, probably due to the large pore throat diameter to SiDNAmag diameter ratio. The median longitudinal dispersivity (α_L) of salt tracer and SiDNAmag were 4.9 and 5.8 × 10⁻⁴ m, respectively. The median ratio of horizontal and vertical transverse dispersivities to α_L, (α_TH /α_L and α_TV /α_L, respectively), for salt tracer and SiDNAmag ranged between 0.52 and 0.56. Through the statistical tests, we concluded that the longitudinal and traverse dispersivities of SiDNAmag were not statistically significantly different from salt tracer in 3 dimensions and could be used to characterize the dispersive properties of the medium we used. Our work contributes to a better understanding of 3D dispersion of SiDNAmag in saturated porous media.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of contaminant hydrology","volume":"266 ","pages":"Article 104410"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169772224001141/pdfft?md5=af360fe3f88ce834833b87efe47b6e66&pid=1-s2.0-S0169772224001141-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141788235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through on-site sampling, microscopic observation, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and high-temperature digestion, the abundance, shape, color, particle size, type, and surface characteristics of MPs in Ancient Canal sediments in different seasons, as well as the influencing factors of MPs as heavy metal carriers in different seasons, were analyzed. The results showed that the average abundance of MPs is 2049.09 ± 883.78 and 2216.36 ± 826.21 items kg⁻¹ dry sediments in summer and winter, respectively, and different sites change significantly. In addition, particle sizes, types, colors, and shapes of MPs exhibited seasonal variations. Four MPs shapes were mainly observed: fibers, fragments, particles, and films. Among them, MPs in summer sediments are mainly fiber, and MPs in winter sediments are mainly particles. In the sediment in summer and winter, transparent MPs and small-size (&lt;0.5 mm) MPs are the main ones, where the abundance of MPs decreased with increasing MPs size. The main MPs species are polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate (PC), and polyethylene (PE), with PP being the predominant MPs in the sediments in different seasons. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectrometer (SEM-EDS) revealed that the surfaces of the MPs were characterized by rough, porous, cracked, and torn, with the attachment of various heavy metal elements, and all of the heavy metal elements accumulated to different degrees on the MPs. There was a significant positive correlation (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.05) between the Mn content in the MPs and the Mn content in the sediments in winter, suggesting that the Mn in the MPs in winter may be derived from the sediments. In addition, the type, shape, size, and color of MPs affect the adsorption capacity of heavy metals. Most of the adsorption of MPs on Pb showed a significant negative correlation, and the adsorption of MPs on Cr, Zn, Cu, Cd, and Mn showed a significant positive correlation.
