However, their efficiency in contaminant removal is affected by substrate composition and sorption mechanism. Objective: This study investigated atrazine sorption and desorption in three carbon-rich substrates. Data were evaluated considering isotherm models and sorbent chemical composition. Methods: Sorption was performed by the batch equilibrium method with three substrates obtained from pig slurry composting with different proportions (w/w) of charcoal fines (CF): CF0, CF9 (9% CF), and CF18 (18% CF). The substrates were characterized by elemental analysis, 13 C NMR CP/MAS spectroscopy. The Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (DRK) models better fitted the sorption data (0.96>R 2 >0.81), followed by Temkin (0.95>R 2 >0.76). Charcoal addition to composting substrates increased carbon content and the aromaticity in the order CF0<CF9< CF18. However, the sorption affinity decreased in the opposite order as indicated by the Kf values: 675, 335 and 290 L kg -1 , respectively. Values of the E parameter (DRK) varied from 8.05 to 8.29 kJ mol -1 , suggesting a predominant physical sorption mechanism, whereas the Bt coefficient (Temkin) indicated an endothermic process. Desorption was only observed at higher atrazine concentrations (>10 mg L -1 ), and the desorption Kf values were greater than the respective sorption values. Conclusions: Atrazine sorption in the tested C-rich substrates is not governed by the carbon content or aromaticity. The low sorption reversibility implies a low atrazine mobility from the tested substrates and suggests their potential for herbicide removal in the environment.","PeriodicalId":29845,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Weed Science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70675020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such weeds are problematic, and they bring complexity to the management mainly due to herbicide resistance. Thus, the monitoring and mapping of chlorimuron-resistant Amaranthus spp. is necessary to detect resistance in different locations of Brazil. Objective : Elaborate discriminating dose of distinction between Amaranthus spp. populations that are susceptible and resistant to chlorimuron and monitor the resistance dispersal throughout five crops. Methods : 33 pigweed populations from the main grain producing properties in Brazil by means of dose-response curves were evaluated. For the D dose, chlorimuron dose of 20 g ha -1 ai was considered. Once the discriminating dose was identified, a monitoring screening of the dispersal of resistance of Amaranthus spp. to chlorimuron was conducted with 226 samples between the 2016 and 2020 crops. Results : The discriminating dose (“base line”) considered ideal to control susceptible plants was 20 g ha -1 of chlorimuron. Among 226 pigweed samples evaluated in the five years of monitoring, 74% of populations were considered susceptible (S), while those classified as resistant (R) and segregating (r) did not exceed 26.0%. Conclusions : By comparing susceptible biotypes of Amaranthus spp. with international scientific literature standards and leaflet averages, it could be safely concluded that the discriminating dose of chlorimuron is 20 g ha -1 . Resistance of Amaranthus spp. to chlorimuron in Brazil is present in the main soybean producing regions evaluated, with a frequency of 26% of the total samples evaluated.","PeriodicalId":29845,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Weed Science","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70675101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
