This book was released on 1988 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phenolic compounds are commonly found contaminants in groundwater systems. In this research the sorption and biodegradation of phenol, 2, 4-d ichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP) were investigated. The soil materials used were characterized as fine grained sands with negligible organic carbon contents. Freundlich sorption coefficients of 0.0158 for phenol and 0.0547 for 2,4-DCP were found. Pentachlorophenol was more strongly adsorbed with an adsorption coefficient of 1.12. In multi-compound systems competitive sorption was evident, and adsorption capacities were reduced by a margin ranging from 70% for phenol to 30% for both DCP and PCP. All three compounds exhibited nonlinear sorption behavior with a range of exponent values from 0.56 to 0.7. Desorption coefficients showed little difference from adsorption for phenol and 2,4-DCP, but were significantly different for PCP, indicating hysteresis of PCP sorptions. The retardation factors were 1.03 for phenol, 1.16 for 2,4- DCP and 2.26 for PCP. In batch biodegradation studies using indigenous soil bacteria phenol degraded quickly (t., _ = 12 hours) and was completely destroyed within three days. 2,4-DCP was also completely degraded but had taken 23 days (t, /_ = 7 days) . PCP was resistant to biodegradation with an average halflife of 120 days. In multi-compound systems, phenol degradation rates dropped off to 0.4 day (t, = 1.7 days) but PCP degradation rates increased to 0.008 day (t . = 86 days) . Biodegradation rates in column studies were obviously greater than in batch experiments, with the rate increase for PCP degradation being especially noticeable (t, = 12 days), because of larger bacterial populations and the dynamic flow conditions made the substrates more available to the bacteria. When controlled under an aerobic environment by the addition of hydrogen peroxide, all three phenolic compounds degraded fastest. under anoxic conditions both the microbial population buildup and the rate of phenolic compound degradation were slower but not by a wide margin. Bacterial growth in the columns did not reduce the hydraulic conductivity of the system, indicating the feasibility of applying in-situ biodegradation techniques to groundwater contamination problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The soil is being contaminated continuously by a large number of pollutants. Among them, heavy metals are an exclusive group of toxicants because they are stable and difficult to disseminate into non-toxic forms. The ever-increasing concentrations of such pollutants in the soil are considered serious threats toward everyone's health and the environment. Many techniques are used to clean, eliminate, obliterate or sequester these hazardous pollutants from the soil. However, these techniques can be costly, labor intensive, and often disquieting. Phytoremediation is a simple, cost effective, environmental friendly and fast-emerging new technology for eliminating toxic heavy metals and other related soil pollutants. Soil Remediation and Plants provides a common platform for biologists, agricultural engineers, environmental scientists, and chemists, working with a common aim of finding sustainable solutions to various environmental issues. The book provides an overview of ecosystem approaches and phytotechnologies and their cumulative significance in relation to solving various environmental problems. - Identifies the molecular mechanisms through which plants are able to remediate pollutants from the soil - Examines the challenges and possibilities towards the various phytoremediation candidates - Includes the latest research and ongoing progress in phytoremediation

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive Water Quality and Purification, Four Volume Set provides a rich source of methods for analyzing water to assure its safety from natural and deliberate contaminants, including those that are added because of carelessness of human endeavors. Human development has great impact on water quality, and new contaminants are emerging every day. The issues of sampling for water analysis, regulatory considerations, and forensics in water quality and purity investigations are covered in detail. Microbial as well as chemical contaminations from inorganic compounds, radionuclides, volatile and semivolatile compounds, disinfectants, herbicides, and pharmaceuticals, including endocrine disruptors, are treated extensively. Researchers must be aware of all sources of contamination and know how to prescribe techniques for removing them from our water supply. Unlike other works published to date that concentrate on issues of water supply, water resource management, hydrology, and water use by industry, this work is more tightly focused on the monitoring and improvement of the quality of existing water supplies and the recovery of wastewater via new and standard separation techniques Using analytical chemistry methods, offers remediation advice on pollutants and contaminants in addition to providing the critical identification perspective The players in the global boom of water purification are numerous and varied. Having worked extensively in academia and industry, the Editor-in-Chief has been careful about constructing a work for a shared audience and cause

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive, up-to-date review of technologies for cleaning up contaminants in groundwater and soil. It provides a special focus on three classes of contaminants that have proven very difficult to treat once released to the subsurface: metals, radionuclides, and dense nonaqueous-phase liquids such as chlorinated solvents. Groundwater and Soil Cleanup was commissioned by the Department of Energy (DOE) as part of its program to clean up contamination in the nuclear weapons production complex. In addition to a review of remediation technologies, the book describes new trends in regulation of contaminated sites and assesses DOE's program for developing new subsurface cleanup technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continuously increasing human population, has resulted in a huge demand for processed and packaged foods. As a result of this demand, large amounts of water, air, electricity and fuel are consumed on a daily basis for food processing, transportation and preservation purposes. Although not one of the most heavily polluting, the food industry does contribute to the increase in volume of waste produced as well as to the energy expended to do so. For the first time, nine separate food industry categories are thoroughly investigated in Waste Management for the Food Industries in an effort to help combat this already acute problem. The current state of environmental management systems is described, offering comparisons of global legislation rarely found in other resources. An extensive review of commercial equipment, including advantages and disadvantages per employed waste management technique, offers a unique perspective for any academic, student, professional, and/or consultant in the food, agriculture and environmental industries. - Thoroughly examines the most prevalent and most polluting industries such as Meat, Fish, Dairy, Olive Oil, Juice and Wine industries - Includes synoptical tables [methods employed, physicochemical or microbiological parameters altered after treatment etc] and comparative figures of the effectiveness of various waste management methods - Contains nearly 2500 of the most up-to-date references available
