Solubilization and desorption of methyl-parathion from porous media: a comparison of hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin and two nonionic surfactants

The removal of hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) from soils and sediments by water flushing is often constrained by sorption interactions. The development of improved methods for remediation of contaminated soils has emerged as a significant environmental priority. Increasing HOCs desorption and mobility in soil using surfactants is considered to be one of the most suitable on-site techniques for soil remediation. A major concern regarding the use of surfactants for environmental restoration is the potential loss to the environment of large amounts of surfactant through sorption of nonionic types. A study was conducted to investigate whether surfactants and cyclodextrins can be used to enhance the transport of methyl-parathion in a contaminated soil. At aqueous concentrations of surfactants tested, the proportion of each surfactant sorbed to the soil increased with increasing surfactant concentrations. The maximal adsorbed mass is about 5,130 and 14,200 microg/g for Brij 35 and Tween 80, respectively. In the case of nonionic surfactants, sorption attenuates surfactant effectiveness by increasing the organic carbon content of the soil matrix and retarding transport of methyl-parathion through batch and soil column experiments. However, in contrast with the surfactants, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPCD) does not interact with the soil tested. The nonreactive nature of cyclodextrins, combined with its large affinity for HOCs suggests that it should have an advantage versus adsorbing surfactants for decreasing HOC distribution coefficients in subsurface systems.     

Degradation of soil-sorbed trichloroethylene by stabilized zero valent iron nanoparticles: effects of sorption, surfactants, and natural organic matter

Zero valent iron (ZVI) nanoparticles have been studied extensively for degradation of chlorinated solvents in the aqueous phase, and have been tested for in-situ remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. However, little is known about its effectiveness for degrading soil-sorbed contaminants. This work studied reductive dechlorination of trichloroethylene (TCE) sorbed in two model soils (a potting soil and Smith Farm soil) using carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) stabilized Fe-Pd bimetallic nanoparticles. Effects of sorption, surfactants and dissolved organic matter (DOC) were determined through batch kinetic experiments. While the nanoparticles can effectively degrade soil-sorbed TCE, the TCE degradation rate was strongly limited by desorption kinetics, especially for the potting soil which has a higher organic matter content of 8.2%. Under otherwise identical conditions, ∼44% of TCE sorbed in the potting soil was degraded in 30 h, compared to ∼82% for Smith Farm soil (organic matter content = 0.7%). DOC from the potting soil was found to inhibit TCE degradation. The presence of the extracted SOM at 40 ppm and 350 ppm as TOC reduced the degradation rate by 34% and 67%, respectively. Four prototype surfactants were tested for their effects on TCE desorption and degradation rates, including two anionic surfactants known as SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) and SDBS (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate), a cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium (HDTMA) bromide, and a non-ionic surfactant Tween 80. All four surfactants were observed to enhance TCE desorption at concentrations below or above the critical micelle concentration (cmc), with the anionic surfactant SDS being most effective. Based on the pseudo-first-order reaction rate law, the presence of 1×cmc SDS increased the reaction rate by a factor of 2.5 when the nanoparticles were used for degrading TCE in a water solution. SDS was effective for enhancing degradation of TCE sorbed in Smith Farm soil, the presence of SDS at sub-cmc increased TCE degraded by ∼10%. However, effect of SDS on degradation of TCE in the potting soil was more complex. The presence of SDS at sub-cmc decreased TCE degradation by 5%, but increased degradation by 5% when SDS dosage was raised to 5×cmc. The opposing effects were attributed to combined effects of SDS on TCE desorption and degradation, release of soil organic matter and nanoparticle aggregation. The findings strongly suggest that effect of soil sorption on the effectiveness of Fe-Pd nanoparticles must be taken into account in process design, and soil organic content plays an important role in the overall degradation rate and in the effectiveness of surfactant uses.     

Effect of electrokinetic remediation on indigenous microbial activity and community within diesel contaminated soil

Electrokinetic remediation has been successfully used to remove organic contaminants and heavy metals within soil. The electrokinetic process changes basic soil properties, but little is known about the impact of this remediation technology on indigenous soil microbial activities. This study reports on the effects of electrokinetic remediation on indigenous microbial activity and community within diesel contaminated soil. The main removal mechanism of diesel was electroosmosis and most of the bacteria were transported by electroosmosis. After 25 days of electrokinetic remediation (0.63 mA cm^− 2), soil pH developed from pH 3.5 near the anode to pH 10.8 near the cathode. The soil pH change by electrokinetics reduced microbial cell number and microbial diversity. Especially the number of culturable bacteria decreased significantly and only Bacillus and strains in Bacillales were found as culturable bacteria. The use of EDTA as an electrolyte seemed to have detrimental effects on the soil microbial activity, particularly in the soil near the cathode. On the other hand, the soil dehydrogenase activity was enhanced close to the anode and the analysis of microbial community structure showed the increase of several microbial populations after electrokinetics. It is thought that the main causes of changes in microbial activities were soil pH and direct electric current. The results described here suggest that the application of electrokinetics can be a promising soil remediation technology if soil parameters, electric current, and electrolyte are suitably controlled based on the understanding of interaction between electrokinetics, contaminants, and indigenous microbial community.     

Enhanced soil flushing of phenanthrene by anionic-nonionic mixed surfactant

Laboratory column experiments were conducted to investigate the performance of anionic-nonionic mixed surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) with Triton X-100 (TX100), in enhancing phenanthrene flushing for contaminated soil in an aim to improve the efficiency of surfactant remediation technology. The experimental results showed that the sorption of TX100 onto soil was severely restricted in the presence of SDS in batch and column experiments and decreased with the increasing mass fraction of SDS in mixed surfactant solutions; meanwhile the enhanced solubilization of phenanthrene by SDS-TX100 mixed surfactant was greater than that by individual surfactant. These results can be attributed to the formation of mixed surfactant micelles in solution. The column flushing experiments showed that the flushing efficiencies for phenanthrene-contaminated soil by SDS-TX100 mixed surfactants were greater than that by individual surfactant and increased with the increasing mass fraction of SDS in mixed surfactant solutions.     

Simultaneous uptake of anionic surfactants and micellar-solubilized contaminants using anion-exchange resins

This research studied simultaneous uptake of anionic surfactants and micellar-solubilized organic contaminants by anion-exchange resins. Anionic surfactant molecules adsorbed onto the positively charged resin mainly through electrostatic attraction, while the micellar-solubilized contaminants were excluded from aqueous solutions once the remaining micelles could no longer solubilize them. Data suggest that the excess contaminants adsorbed onto the resin skeleton and admicelle layer formed on the resin surface through hydrophobic interactions and eventually partitioned into the resin gel phase matrix. In batch adsorption, the contaminant solubilization capacity did not decrease linearly with respect to surfactant concentration decrease due to the increased solution counterion activity during anion exchange, and caused "delayed" contaminant uptake relative to that of the surfactant. No such effect occurred in continuous column adsorption, where the surfactant and contaminant breakthrough occurred simultaneously. Surfactant head and tail group properties, along with resin structure and particle size significantly affected surfactant and contaminant uptake rates. Relative to recovering the surfactant, the high exchange potential of the anionic surfactant prevented effective surfactant desorption, even at high electrolyte concentration and in the presence of a cosolvent. The resin matrix also had high affinity for the partitioned contaminant, and the contaminant elution from the resin seemed to be controlled by equilibrium partitioning.     

Surfactant enhanced remediation of subsurface chromium contamination

The objective of this research was identification of optimal surfactant systems for remediating chromate-contaminated subsurface environments. Batch and column studies were conducted utilizing chromium contaminated soil obtained from the U.S. Coast Guard Support Center, Elizabeth City, N.C. Results of the batch studies demonstrated that surfactants, when used alone, were able to enhance the extraction of chromate 2.0–2.5 times greater than water. When a complexing agent, diphenyl carbazide, was solubilized by aqueous micelles the system was able to enhance the chromate elution by 9.3 to 12.0 times greater than water (or 3.7–5.7 times greater than surfactant without the complexing agent). Column studies showed that when surfactants are used along with the complexing agent, 213% of Cr(VI) can be removed relative to D.I. water in less than 20 pore volumes, whereas D.I. water took 35 pore volumes to reach the baseline removal. The economics of surfactant enhanced subsurface remediation will be affected by surfactant losses (e.g. precipitation and sorption); batch and column studies were conducted to evaluate the losses of surfactants due to such phenomena. Results of these laboratory studies demonstrated that the surfactant system containing Dowfax 8390 and diphenyl carbazide was most effective in remediation of the chromium contaminated soil.     

Partitioning of hydrophobic organic compounds within soil-water-surfactant systems

Understanding the partitioning of hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) within soil-water-surfactant systems is key to improving the use of surfactants for remediation. The overall objective of this study was to investigate the soil properties that influence the effectiveness of surfactants used to remediate soil contaminated with hydrophobic pesticides, as an example of a more general application for removing strongly sorbing HOCs from contaminated soils via in-situ enhanced sorption, or ex-situ soil washing. In this study, the partitioning of two commonly used pesticides, atrazine and diuron, within soil-water-surfactant systems was investigated. Five natural soils, one nonionic surfactant (Triton-100 (TX)) and one cationic surfactant (benzalkonium chloride (BC)) were used. The results showed that the cation exchange capacity (CEC) is the soil property that controls surfactant sorption onto the soils. Diuron showed much higher solubility enhancement than atrazine with the micelles of either surfactant. Within an ex-situ soil washing system, TX is more effective for soils with lower CEC than those with higher CEC. Within an in-situ enhanced sorption zone, BC works significantly better with more hydrophobic HOCs. The HOC sorption capacity of the sorbed surfactant (K(ss)) was a non-linear function of the amount of surfactant sorbed. For the cationic surfactant (BC), the maximal K(ss) occurred when around 40% of the total CEC sites in the various soils were occupied by sorbed surfactant. Below a sub-saturation sorption range (~20 g/kg), under the same amount of BC sorbed, a soil with lower CEC tends to have higher K(ss) than the one with higher CEC.     

Evaluation of an elevated non-ionic surfactant critical micelle concentration in a soil/aqueous system

In this study, an elevated non-ionic surfactant critical micelle concentration (CMC) in a soil/aqueous system was examined. Experimental measurements have been made of surfactant solubilization of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (i.e. fluoranthene and pyrene) in a 5-month aged PAH contaminated soil, as well as surfactant sorption onto soil. Fluoranthene and pyrene in the soil/aqueous system in the presence of three non-ionic surfactants (i.e. Tween 80, Triton X-100 and Brij 35) were extracted using dichloramethane and analyzed using GC-MS. Maximum sorption of non-ionic surfactant onto soil was evaluated using a surface tension technique. It was observed that PAH solubilization is proportional to surfactant dose after the elevated CMC, termed as the effective CMC (CMCeff), is achieved. The values of surfactant CMCeff assessed by the surface tension technique were found to be similar to those determined from surfactant PAH solublization, thereby proving the research hypothesis that surfactant sorption is the cause for the elevation of surfactant CMC in a soil/aqueous system.     

Electrokinetic soil remediation--critical overview

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in finding new and innovative solutions for the efficient removal of contaminants from soils to solve groundwater, as well as soil, pollution. The objective of this review is to examine several alternative soil-remediating technologies, with respect to heavy metal remediation, pointing out their strengths and drawbacks and placing an emphasis on electrokinetic soil remediation technology. In addition, the review presents detailed theoretical aspects, design and operational considerations of electrokinetic soil-remediation variables, which are most important in efficient process application, as well as the advantages over other technologies and obstacles to overcome. The review discusses possibilities of removing selected heavy metal contaminants from clay and sandy soils, both saturated and unsaturated. It also gives selected efficiency rates for heavy metal removal, the dependence of these rates on soil variables, and operational conditions, as well as a cost-benefit analysis. Finally, several emerging in situ electrokinetic soil remediation technologies, such as Lasagna, Elektro-Klean, electrobioremediation, etc., are reviewed, and their advantages, disadvantages and possibilities in full-scale commercial applications are examined.     

Retention of organophosphorous insecticides on a calcareous soil modified by organic amendments and a surfactant

Pesticides may affect soil quality since they are applied either directly to the soil or transported from the treated crops. Although the soil is able to partially retain environmental contaminants, the use of organic amendments, such as sewage sludge, peat or surfactants, may increase the retention in the upper soil layers, where the contaminants can be degraded and thus diminish their environmental fate. The effect of adding sewage sludge, peat and humic acids, together with a cationic surfactant to the soil, on the adsorption and desorption of organophosphorous insecticides has been studied. The results indicate that humic acids induce an adsorption increment of the pesticides, while peat and sewage sludge do not significantly affect pesticide adsorption at the dosage applied. The use of a cationic surfactant considerably enhances the insecticide retention. The increase was highest for the combined application of the surfactant and the humic acids. Desorption isotherms are inversely related to the adsorption behaviour, being higher for only soil, lower for soil added with carbon-rich amendments, and drastically reduced when the cationic surfactant is present. Concerning the insecticides, adsorption and desorption are related to their physicochemical properties.     

Micellar effect on the photolysis of hydrogen peroxide

Photolysis experiments were performed to quantify the effect of three anionic surfactants on the photolysis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at the ambient laboratory temperature of 22+/-1 degrees C. H2O2 photolysis in water, methanol, and surfactant monomeric solution was also conducted to compare the photochemical reactivity of H2O2 in different media. Photolysis rates were highest for water, followed by micellar solutions, and lowest for methanol. The results show that the photochemical reactivity of H2O2 is less favorable in organic solvent than in water and surfactant micelles affect H2O2 photolysis. Retarded photolysis of H2O2 in micellar solutions implies that a fraction of H2O2 dissolved in water partitions into micellar pseudophase of surfactant. H2O2 partitioned into micelles has less photochemical reactivity and thus photolysis rate was retarded in the presence of micelles. Photolysis inhibitory level by micelles was shown to be dependent on the kinds of surfactants used in this study. In addition, the inhibitory effect by surfactant monomers was negligible due to the absence of micelles.     

Use of surfactant modified ultrafiltration for perchlorate (Cl(O)(4-)) removal

Determinations of perchlorate anion (ClO(4)(-)) transport and rejection were performed using a surfactant modified ultrafiltration (UF) membrane. Perchlorate anion (at a concentration of 100 microg/L of ClO(4)(-), spiked with KClO(4)) was introduced to the membrane as a pure component, in binary mixtures with other salts, cationic and anionic surfactants, and at various ionic strength conditions (conductivity). Also, a natural source water was spiked with perchlorate in the presence of cationic and anionic surfactants and used to determine the effects of a complex mixture (including natural organic matter (NOM)) on the observed rejection. All filtration measurements were performed at approximately the same permeate flow rate in order to minimize artifacts from mass transfer at the membrane interface. The objective of this study was to modify a negatively charged UF membrane in terms of the fundamental mechanisms, steric/size exclusion and electrostatic exclusion and to enhance perchlorate rejection, with synthetic water and a blend of Colorado River water and State Project water (CRW/SPW). Previous work suggested that perchlorate was dominantly rejected by electrostatic exclusion for charged nanofiltration (NF) and UF membranes (Rejection of perchlorate by reverse osmosis, nanofiltration and ultrafiltration (UF) membranes: mechanism and modeling. Ph.D. dissertation, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA, 2001). In that research, perchlorate rejection capability was quickly lost in the presence of a sufficient amount of other ions. However, this study showed that ClO(4)(-) was excluded from a (negatively) charged UF membrane with pores large with respect to the size of the ion. Although perchlorate rejection capability due to apparent electrostatic force was reduced in the presence of a cationic surfactant, a desired amount of the ClO(4)(-) was excluded by steric exclusion. The steric exclusion was due to decreasing membrane pore size caused by the adsorption of the cationic surfactant.     

Removal of methylene blue from waste water using micellar enhanced ultrafiltration

Ultrafiltration of micellar solutions containing sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and oxyethylated coconut fatty acid methyl esters (OMC-10) and their binary mixtures were studied and used to recover methylene blue. This was achieved through solubilization in mixed negatively charged micelles. Under the experimental conditions used, no significant fouling of the membrane comprising of cellulose, polyethersulfone and polyvinylidene fluoride was observed, with no retardation of ultrafiltration. The introduction of a nonionic surfactant to SDS reduced the critical micelle concentration of mixed micelles and then the concentration of surfactants in the permeate, i.e., from 8.3 x 10(-3)M for SDS to 2.0 x 10(-3) M for the mixture of SDS:OMC-10 = 4:1. Such a tailored surfactant mixture enabled the authors to achieve 93-94% retention of methylene blue using a hydrophilic membrane made of cellulose. Ultrafiltration of micellar solutions could also be considered a research method, helpful in determining important parameters such as micelle loading and the micelle binding constant used to characterize micellar solutions. Additionally the distribution coefficient employed in extraction studies can be resolved.     

Evaluation of surfactants/cosolvents for desorption/solubilization of Phenanthrene in clayey soils

Throughout the USA, numerous sites exist where the soils have been contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These compounds may be toxic, mutagenic and/or carcinogenic, so these sites threaten human health and the environment and prompt remediation is warranted. In situ flushing with surfactants/cosolvents has shown promise for treating PAH‐contaminated soils that are uniform and possess a high permeability, but the efficiency of this process is severely limited when heterogeneous and/or low permeability soils are present. For these difficult situations, electrokinetically enhanced in situ flushing offers great potential, but this method is highly dependent on the type of purging agent that is used. Thus, in this laboratory investigation, batch desorption experiments were conducted to evaluate different surfactants/cosolvent solutions for use in electrokinetically enhanced in situ flushing. The surfactants/cosolvents were evaluated on their ability to desorb and solubilize phenanthrene, a representative PAH, from two widely varying clayey soil types. The soils were artificially contaminated at four PAH concentrations, and batch tests were conducted using six different surfactant/cosolvent solutions. The results indicated that phenanthrene was more strongly bound to the soil with the higher organic content, and the surfactants with a higher hydrophile – lipophile balance number (HLB) caused greater PAH desorption and solubilization. Furthermore, the surfactant solutions performed better when they were used at a higher concentration. Compared to the cosolvent solution or a combined mixture of the cosolvent and surfactant solutions, greater desorption and solubilization of the contaminant occurred when the surfactant solution was used by itself.     

The direct and indirect photolysis of 4,4'-dichlorobiphenyl in various surfactant/solvent-aided systems

Surfactant and organic solvents have individually been shown useful in assisting the solubilization of hydrophobic organics out of contaminated soil and promoting UV-induced photodecay at a succeeding treatment process. A newly proposed process is to use the mixtures of surfactant and solvents together in achieving better performance. This study was to explore some basic variables and conditions that may be useful in optimizing the performance of surfactant/solvent-aided UV systems through the selection of surfactant micelles, the adjustment of the reaction pH levels, and the addition of photosensitizer and hydrogen sources. A PCB monomer 4,4'-dichlorobiphenyl (DCB) was used as the target compound for this study; about 1.3 to 2.3 times greater DCB photodecay rate enhancements were observed by using surfactant/acetone or surfactant/triethylamine (TEA) combinations at their optimal conditions. Overdose of these additives (acetone and TEA) will result in retardation of the reactions. However, the use of surfactant with a multisolvents system (surfactant/acetone/TEA) shows an add-on effect in amplifying the overall decay rate for more than 12%, suggesting that a more complicated mechanism is involved than the simple parallel-reaction assumption.     

Colloid‐mediated transport of Pb through soil porous media

Intact soil column leaching experiments were used to assess the role of water dispersible soil colloids with diverse physicochemical and mineralogical composition in co‐transporting Pb in subsurface soil environments. There was essentially no elution of Pb (0 to < 1%) in 10mg/L control Pb solutions, suggesting a near complete attenuation by the soil column matrix. When the control Pb solutions were mixed with 300mg/L soil colloid suspensions, Pb transport increased by 10–3,000 times over that of control solutions. The presence of colloids increased the transport of both, the colloid bound and the soluble Pb fraction. Colloid‐induced transport was enhanced by increasing colloid surface charge, pH, organic carbon, and soil macroporosity and inhibited by increasing colloid size, Al, Fe, and quartz content. However, increased soil organic carbon content appeared to compensate for some of these limitations. Colloid binding and co‐transport appeared to be the dominant mechanism for increases in Pb transportability, but physical exclusion of soluble Pb species from matrix exchange sites blocked by colloids, competitive sorption, and organic complexation were also important. These findings suggest that the colloids play a dual role as Pb‐carriers and facilitators in the migration process and could have important ramifications on contaminant transport prediction and remediation applications.     

Modeling the two stages of surfactant-aided soil washing

This paper provides new insights into modelling the distribution of hydrophobic compounds between soil and water phases in the presence of nonionic surfactant micelles. Experimental measurements were made of various systems comprising a non-ionic surfactant, five soils of different fractional organic carbon contents, and a hydrophobic (disperse) dye. Soil-washing performance was quantified using reciprocal surfactant-soil solubilization coefficients (1/Kd). Two stages of partitioning were identified. In stage 1, the dye concentration increased slightly with increasing surfactant dose until surfactant monomers saturated the bulk solution at the critical micelle concentration (cmc). The washing performance was 1:1 proportional to the surfactant monomer concentration. Most of the surfactant in this stage is sorbed. In stage 2, above the cmc, soil-washing performance increased linearly with increasing available surfactant micelles in the bulk solution. Reciprocal surfactant-soil solubilization coefficients (1/Kd), octanol-water partition coefficients (Kow), fractional organic carbon content of the soil (foc), and surfactant concentration were correlated for each stage in the soil-washing process using two simple equations.     

Remediation of PCE-contaminated aquifer by an in situ two-layer biobarrier: laboratory batch and column studies

The industrial solvent tetrachloroethylene (PCE) is among the most ubiquitous chlorinated compounds found in groundwater contamination. The objective of this study was to develop an in situ two-layer biobarrier system consisting of an organic-releasing material layer followed by an oxygen-releasing material layer. The organic-releasing material, which contained sludge cakes from a domestic wastewater treatment plant, is able to release biodegradable organics continuously. The oxygen-releasing material, which contained calcium peroxide, is able to release oxygen continuously upon contact with water. The first organic-releasing material layer was to supply organics (primary substrates) to reductively dechlorinate PCE in situ. The second oxygen-releasing material layer was to release oxygen to aerobic biodegrade or cometabolize PCE degradation byproducts from the first anaerobic layer. Batch experiments were conducted to design and identify the components of the organic and oxygen-releasing materials, and evaluate the organic substrate (presented as chemical oxygen demand (COD) equivalent) and oxygen release rates from the organic-releasing material and oxygen-releasing materials, respectively. The observed oxygen and COD release rates were approximately 0.0368 and 0.0416 mg/d/g of material, respectively. A laboratory-scale column experiment was then conducted to evaluate the feasibility of this proposed system for the bioremediation of PCE-contaminated groundwater. This system was performed using a series of continuous-flow glass columns including a soil column, an organic-releasing material column, two consecutive soil columns, and an oxygen-releasing material column, followed by two other consecutive soil columns. Anaerobic acclimated sludges were inoculated in the first four columns, and aerobic acclimated sludges were inoculated in the last three columns to provide microbial consortia for contaminant biodegradation. Simulated PCE-contaminated groundwater with a flow rate of 0.25 L/d was pumped into this system. Effluent samples from each column were analyzed for PCE and its degradation byproducts. Results show that up to 99% of PCE removal efficiency was obtained in this passive system. Thus, the biobarrier treatment scheme has the potential to be developed into an environmentally and economically acceptable remediation technology for the in situ treatment of PCE-contaminated aquifer.     

The sorption behavior of complex pollution system composed of aldicarb and surfactant--SDBS

The behavior of complex pollution system in soil composed of aldicarb, a carbamate pesticide, and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS), an anionic surfactant, was studied by the experiment of shaking sorption balance. The range of concentration of aldicarb and SDBS was 0.4-5.0 and 1-1000 mg/kg of dried soil, respectively. Linear sorption isotherm was well fitted for these two chemicals. SDBS can decrease the sorption of aldicarb in soil remarkably. While the concentration of SDBS increased from 0 to 1000 mg/kg, the linear sorption coefficient can be decreased by 50%. But aldicarb showed no effect on the sorption of SDBS in experiment. In addition the mechanism of the effect of SDBS on sorption of aldicarb was discussed.
