Multielement isotope fractionation studies to assess pollutant transformation are well-established for point-source pollution but only emerging diffuse by micropollutants like pesticides. Specifically, chlorine is hardly explored promising, because many pesticides contain few atoms so that "undiluted" position-specific Cl effects can be expected in compound-average data. This study combined Cl, N, and C sensitively detect biotic abiotic of the widespread herbicides groundwater contaminants acetochlor, metolachlor, atrazine. For chloroacetanilides, hydrolysis pathways studied under acidic, neutral, alkaline conditions as well biodegradation two soils resulted pronounced (εCl from −5.0 ± 2.3 −6.5 0.7‰). The characteristic dual C–Cl patterns (ΛC–Cl 0.39 0.15 0.67 0.08) reveal analysis provides a robust indicator chloroacetanilide degradation. atrazine, distinct ΛC–Cl values were observed (7.4 1.9) compared previous reports oxidative dealkylation (1.7 0.9 0.6 0.1, respectively). 3D approach allowed differentiating transformations would not distinguishable based on N data alone. first set together with new atrazine degradation, highlights potential using compound-specific studying situ pesticide

We investigated the occurrence of three pharmaceutical residues in four wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) from northern Tunisia. The selected compounds were carbamazepine, naproxen, and ibuprofen; they are among most commonly prescribed widely used agents worldwide. Samples (200 mL) pre-concentrated using solid phase extraction (SPE) enrichment procedure analysis pharmaceuticals was performed with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-UV). overall provided limits detection (LOD) lower than 0.5 µg.L−1and recoveries 78–97%. For carbamazepine compound, mean concentrations 60.58, 93.19, 132 µg.L−1 for Bizerte, Jendouba, Tunis WWTPs, respectively. This not detected Beja WWTPs. Naproxen ibuprofens Jendouba WWTP but found other WWTPs ranging 2.94 to 36.17 8.02 43.22 µg.L−1, From obtained data, it seems that these able eliminate this kind micro-pollutants.

A wide variety of sampling techniques and strategies are needed to analyze polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) interpret their distributions in various environmental media (i.e., air, water, snow, soils, sediments, peat biological material). In this review, we provide a summary commonly employed methods strategies, as well discussion routine innovative approaches used quantify characterize PACs frequently targeted samples, with specific examples applications Canadian investigations. The pros cons different analytical techniques, including gas chromatography - flame ionization detection (GC-FID), GC low-resolution mass spectrometry (GC-LRMS), high performance liquid (HPLC) ultraviolet, fluorescence or MS detection, high-resolution (GC-HRMS) compound-specific stable (δ13C, δ2H) radiocarbon (Δ14C) isotope analysis considered. Using an example research carried out Canada's Athabasca oil sands region (AOSR), where alkylated hydrocarbons sulfur-containing dibenzothiophenes targeted, the need move beyond standard list sixteen EPA priority PAHs for adoption AOSR bitumen PAC reference highlighted.

Current approaches are often limited to evaluating the contribution of pesticide dissipation processes in water-sediment systems as both degradation and phase transfer, that is, sorption-desorption, contribute apparent decrease concentration. Here, widely used herbicides acetochlor S-metolachlor was examined laboratory by microcosm experiments under oxic anoxic conditions. Compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) emphasized insignificant carbon fractionation sediment, indicating prevailing water phase. Conceptual modeling accounting for transfer biodegradation indicated may be underestimated when is not included. Phase does affect a wide spectrum molecules environmental conditions, underscoring potential CSIA robust approach evaluate systems. coupled with identification transformation products high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry suggests occur via nucleophilic substitution predominance oxalinic acids Altogether, combining CSIA, products, use conceptual phase-transfer models improves interpretation
