2017, ChemosphereCitation Excerpt :This also implies that the first-order kinetics model is suitable to describe partition of CBs in the sediment-water system in this study. The experimental constants “a” and “b” in Turner et al. (1999) refer to the particle concentration-normalised KD, and the slope of the relationship, respectively. These authors also explained that the values “a” and “b” could be considered as site-specific constants and compound-specific constants, respectively.
Monthly variation and vertical distribution of parent and alkyl polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in estuarine water column: Role of suspended particulate matter
2016, Environmental PollutionCitation Excerpt :Relationship between KD and salinity was plotted and fitting by an empirical equation of KD=KD′ exp(0.0352σS) that reported previously, where KD and KD′ are the distribution coefficients in marine water and freshwater, respectively (Turner and Rawling, 2001). Relationship between logKD and SPM concentration was also plotted and fitting by a logarithmic equation of logKD = –B logSPM + log A, where SPM is the SPM concentration, A and B are chemical- and environment/sample specific constants (Turner et al., 1999). In this study, spatial interpolation method was extensively applied in the mapping processes to estimate the vertical distribution of EPA-34 PAHs at unsampled water depth, and the obtained data was calculated by ordinary kriging (OK) equations with the second order stationary hypothesis.
Phosphate sorption from seawater solutions: Particle concentration effect
2013, Marine ChemistryCitation Excerpt :Furthermore, a variety of explanations have been proposed for the particle concentration effect. For example, it has been suggested that the effect is an artifact due to the presence of colloids, which contribute erroneously to the measured dissolved phase concentrations (Voice et al., 1983; Voice and Weber, 1985; Higgo and Rees, 1986; Servos and Muir, 1989; Turner et al., 1999; Fehse et al., 2010). Other explanations include reactor wall effects (Rawling et al., 1998), competition between the sorbate and chemical species desorbing from the solid phase (Du and Hayashi, 2006), flocculation or aggregation, which decrease the accessibility to sorption sites (Utomo and Hunter, 2010), presence of large volume particles with low sorption capacity (Benoit, 1995; Benoit and Rozan, 1999) and sorbate dilution with increasing particle concentration, for which Chang and Wang (2002) propose a correction based on dimensional analysis.
