Colloidal activated carbon (CAC) is an injectable adsorbent that sequesters per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the subsurface, serving as situ remediation technology for PFAS-impacted sites. However, effectiveness of CAC sorptive barrier could change over time due to alterations its physicochemical properties induced by aging processes. In this study, effects on surface resulting impact adsorption behaviors PFAS compounds were determined using four accelerated treatments, including wet-dry cycling (W/D), hydrogen peroxide (H), Fenton's reagent (F), mineral acid (A). treatments showed a greater physical structure chemical composition than either W/D-CAC H-CAC. Aging lowered specific area anion exchange capacity, increased oxygen content, point zero charge, suggesting negative impacts capacity removal. This reduction sorption was confirmed batch isotherm experiments. All aged had lower multisolute system, six with different chain lengths (C4-C8) functional groups (sulfonate or carboxylate), only exception being perfluorooctanesulfonic (PFOS). The results suggest process important, yet often overlooked, factor determining long-term removal, especially shorter-chain hydrophilic PFAS. More research needed verify influence field-scale processes performance longevity.

ABSTRACT This study presents a planning‐level graphical tool and regression equation model for estimating the longevity of Colloidal Activated Carbon (CAC) barriers treating per‐ polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in groundwater. The development incorporated information from field‐scale CAC barriers, including design data 17 sites performance monitoring results total 26 sites. consists both mathematical frameworks barrier based on site‐specific parameters, dimensions, groundwater Darcy velocity, loading, influent PFAS concentrations. Application to field yields longevities ranging 4 over 100,000 years, with median values 870, 150, 180 years PFOS, PFOA, PFHxS, respectively. wide variation is partly due significant variability mass flux entering as shown by five‐order‐of‐magnitude difference PFOA flux, × 10 −8 1 −3 kg m −2 year −1 . systematic decrease PFOS PFOA/PFHxS aligns known sorption behavior these compounds onto media. Key uncertainties estimation include spatial temporal CAC, hydrogeologic heterogeneity, isotherm selection, competitive effects, limited long‐term data. provides standardized approach preliminary using while emphasizing importance applying appropriate safety factors implementing strategies.

Abstract To evaluate the ability of zeolites to remove natural low molecular organic substances, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (p-HBA), a phenolic compound derived from lignin, was chosen as representative naturally occurring dissolved substances. Two distinct high-silica zeolite materials, namely ZSM-5 and Y, were utilised for study, adsorption process investigated under wide range conditions. It has been observed that p-HBA is adsorbed by both zeolites, pH significantly impacts p-HBA, particularly within concentration range, while exerting minimal influence on saturation capacity. For various isotherm models assessed accurately describe data obtained aqueous solutions p-HBA. In addition, comprehend selectivity adsorbents towards substances xenobiotics, competitive mixtures toluene (TOL) investigated. The zeolite’s capacity diminishes with increasing contaminant concentration. Conversely, remains minimally affected it demonstrated can displace zeolites’ sites. This finding confirmed diffractometric study indicates TOL occupy “the same” Furthermore, Rietveld refinements reveal formation complexes interacting framework stabilising guest structures porosity. results are important selection proper adsorbent removal hydrocarbons in environmental application (natural waters).
