Effect of Environmental Factors on the Degradation of 2, 6-Dichlorophenol in Soil

Article Abstract:

Examination of the effect of environmental factors on the degradation of 2,6-dichlorophenol in unsaturated soil. The findings can be applied to the prediction of natural attenuation and the design of bioremediation techniques.

Validation of an arsenic sequential extraction method for evaluating mobility in sediments

Article Abstract:

Soil samples from a wetland in Woburn, Massachusetts are spiked with different phases of arsenic in order to measure the mobility and transport of arsenic in sediment and soil. Sequential extraction procedures are charted with verification through acid digestion.

(Superscript14)Pyrene bound residue evaluation using MIBK fractionation method for creosote-contaminated soil

Article Abstract:

Soil contaminated with creosote remains a potential carcinogenic source for a long time. Researchers sought to create a new test to characterize the bound reside formation process of (carbon 14)pyrene in contaminated soil. They also sought to evaluate the methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) fractionation method to predict biological activity upon the contaminants over time. Soil from the Champion International Superfund Site in Libby, CT formed the basis of these studies. The soil was also contaminated with pentachlorophenol, a wood preservative.
