Abstract

A number of different methods have been used for modeling the sorption of volatile organic chlorinated compounds such as tetrachloroethylene/perchloroethylene (PCE). In this study, PCE was adsorbed in several natural sorbents, i.e., Pahokee peat, vermicompost, BionSoil ® , and natural soil, in the batch experiments. Several sorption models such as linear, Freundlich, solubility-normalized Freundlich model, and Polanyi-Manes model (PMM) were used to analyze sorption isotherms. The relationship between sorption model parameters, organic carbon content ( foc ), and elemental C/N ratio was studied. The organic carbon normalized partition coefficient values (log Koc = 1.50-3.13) in four different sorbents were less than the logarithm of the octanol-water partition coefficient (log K ow = 3.40) of PCE due to high organic carbon contents. The log K oc decreased linearly with log f oc and log C/N ratio, but increased linearly with log O/C, log H/C, and log (N+O)/C ratio. Both log K F,oc or log K F,oc decreased linearly with log f oc (R 2 = 0.88-0.92) and log C/N ratio (R 2 = 0.57-0.76), butincreased linearly with log (N+O)/C (R 2 = 0.93-0.95). The log q max,oc decreased linearly as log f oc and log C/N increased, whereas it increased with log O/C, log H/C and log (N+O)/C ratios. The log q max,oc increased linearly with (N+O)/C indicating a strong dependence of q max,oc on the polarity index. The results showed that PCE sorption behaviors were strongly correlated with the physicochemical properties of soil organic matter (SOM).
