This study tested whether isotope measurements of surface water and dissolved constituents in could be used as tracers non-point source pollution. Oxygen-18 was a tracer, while carbon-14, carbon-13, deuterium were DOC. Carbon-14 carbon-13 also inorganic carbon, chlorine-36 uranium isotopes other salts. In addition, large databases quality assembled for the Missouri River at St. Louis Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta California to enhance interpretive results measurements. Much data has been under-interpreted provides valuable resource investigative research, which this report exploits integrates with

Abstract High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) may be used for analysis of municipal wasterwater containing ethoxylated alcohol surfactants. After cleanup the sample by XAD‐2 resin, liquid‐liquid extraction, ion exchange and cobalt thiocyanate surfactant is derivatized with phenyl isocyanate to permit UV detection analyzed both normal phase reversedphase HPLC. The alkyl chain length distribution determined using reversed‐phase HPLC, while ethoxy limit quantification 0.1 ppm.

Studies were conducted which used the ozone/hydrogen peroxide (O3/H2O2) advanced oxidation process to pretreat three classes of compounds prior aerobic biological treatment. The study included ethylene oxide/propylene oxide (EO/PO) block copolymers, polypropylene glycols (PPGs), linear secondary alcoholethoxylates (LSAEs), and alkylphenolethoxylates (APEs). After preoxidation with ozone hydrogen (added at their stoichiometric ratio), 300 mg/L as COD samples bioassayed in batch bioassays a mixed liquor suspended solids concentration 1500 mg/L. It was found that unoxidized polypropylated (EO/PO copolymers PPGs) LSAEs tended be biorecalcitrant, while (APEs) partially biodegradable. Increasing oxidant dosages (i.e., plus peroxide) consistently increased both rate extent biodegradation these exception NP(EO)5, initially decreased biodegradability upon oxidation. Oxidant required enhance varied significantly between within surfactant. For example, average reach an 85% DOC removal 0.3 mg O3/mg compound (plus H2O2) for LSAEs, 1.0 mg/mg EO/PO PPGs, 5.0 APEs, respectively.

The aims were to test whether Parvibaculum lavamentivoransT degraded commercial linear alkylbenzenesulphonate (LAS) surfactant via omega-oxygenation and beta-oxidation sulphophenylcarboxylates (SPCs), the organism was widespread reisolable, degradative community used 4-sulphocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase cleave aromatic ring from LAS.Heterotrophic P. converted LAS (side chain length C10-C13) SPCs (C4-C13), alpha,beta-unsaturated (C4-C13) sulphophenyldicarboxylates (SPdCs) (at least C8-C12). Identifications came high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation, an electrospray interface mass spectrometry. No evidence for other paths found. degradation of in trickling filters inoculated with environmental samples always showed transient SPC intermediates presence lavamentivorans morphotype community. One new isolate obtained. A able mineralize contained 4-sulphocatechol-1,2-dioxygenase at specific activity.Parvibaculum degrades omega-oxygenation, oxidation shortening through yield a wide range SPCs. latter are bacterial communities which contain organisms like lavamentivorans, utilize sulphocatechol dioxygenase cleavage.There is one pathway degrade LAS. Any traces larger amounts effluent sewage works exposed acclimated pristine environments. These reactions can now be studied pure cultures.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Industrial surfactants are biologically complex organics that difficult to degrade and may cause ecotoxicological risks in the environment. Until now, many scientific reports have been devoted effective treatment of employing advanced oxidation processes, but there is no available experimental study dealing with optimization statistical design surfactant well‐established H 2 O /UV‐C process. RESULTS: Considering major factors influencing performance as well their interactions, reaction conditions required for complete a commercial non‐ionic textile surfactant, an alkyl ethoxylate, were modeled optimized using central composite design‐response surface methodology (CCD‐RSM). Experimental results revealed aqueous solution at initial chemical oxygen demand (COD) 450 mg L −1 , most appropriate achieve full mineralization pH 10.5 47 mmol time 86 min (corresponding UV dose 30 kWh m −3 ). CONCLUSION: CCD allowed development empirical polynomial equations (quadratic models) successfully predicted COD TOC removal efficiencies under all employed present work. The process variable time, followed by content found be main parameters affecting performance, whereas concentration had least influence on efficiencies. more important abatement compared abatement.
