Aging as the main factor controlling PAH and polar-PAC (polycyclic aromatic compound) release mechanisms in historically coal-tar-contaminated soils
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2019Co-Authors: Marine Boulangé, Coralie Biache, Catherine Lorgeoux, Raymond Michels, Julien Michel, Pierre FaureAbstract:In industrial sites, historically contaminated by coal tar (abandoned coking and manufactured gas plants), other families of organic pollutants than the 16 PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) classified by the US-EPA can occur and induce potential risk for groundwater resources. Polar PACs (polycyclic aromatic compounds), especially oxygenated and nitrogenated PACs (O-PACs and N-PACs), are present in the initial pollution and can also be generated over time (i.e., O-PACs). Their aqueous solubilities are much greater than those of the PAHs. For these reasons, we need to increase our knowledge on polar PACs in order to better predict their behavior and the potential on-site risk. Batch leaching tests were carried out under various conditions of temperature, ionic strength, and availability of pollutants to determine the mechanisms and key parameters controlling their release. The results show a release of low-molecular-weight PAHs and polar PACs mainly by dissolution, while higher molecular weight PAHs are mainly released in association with colloids. Aging mainly controls the former mechanism, and ionic strength mainly controls the latter. Temperature increased both dissolution and colloidal mobilization. The Raoult Law predicts the PAC equilibrium concentration for soils presenting high pollutant availability, but this Law overestimates PAC concentration in aged soils (low pollutant availability). This is mainly due to limitation of PAC diffusion within coal-tar particles with aging. The most soluble PACs (especially polar PACs) are the most sensitive to aging. For better prediction of the PAC behavior in soils and water resources management, aging needs to be taken into account.

relationship among the Raoult Law zdanovskii stokes robinson rule and two extended zdanovskii stokes robinson rules of wang
Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data, 2009Co-Authors: Zhichang WangAbstract:In this paper, the Raoult Law (C. R. Acad. Sci. Ser. C 1887, 104, 1430), the Zdanovskii−Stokes−Robinson (ZSR) rule (Trudy Solyanoi Laboratorii Akad. Nauk SSSR 1936, No. 6, 5; J. Phys. Chem. 1966, 70, 2126), and two extended ZSR rules of Wang (Acta Metall. Sinica 1980, 16, 195; Ber. Bunsen-Ges. Phys. Chem. 1998, 102, 1045) are presented in a unified way. Similar to the Raoult Law, which was first noted empirically in pyridine solutions, the ZSR rule for isopiestic mixed electrolyte and nonelectrolyte aqueous solutions can be extended to every kind of liquid and solid solutions such as organic mixtures, aqueous and nonaqueous electrolyte and nonelectrolyte solutions, liquid and solid alloys, molten salt mixtures, slags, and nonstoichiometric solid solutions, resulting in two extended ZSR rules of Wang. Although the solutions obeying the Raoult Law (or the related classically ideal solution model) are very few as compared with the classically nonideal solutions, one classically ideal solution {B+C+...+Z} may...
