Adsorption of different VOC onto soil minerals from gas phase: influence of mineral, type of VOC, and air humidity

Article Abstract:

The absorption of volatile organic compounds, as gases, onto soils was shown to be heavily dependent on the water content of the substrate, increasing the adsorption of polar compounds over aliphatics and aromatics. Air humidity was also found to slightly affect adsorption, effecting a progressive linearization of adsorption as humidity increases. The substrate's mineral composition was also shown to only slightly affect adsorption.
