Environmental organic chemistry
TL;DR: An Introduction to Environmental Organic Chemicals is given in this article, where the authors present an overview of the main steps in the development of these processes, including the following: Sorption I: General Introduction and Sorption Processes Involving Organic Matter. Sorption II: Partitioning to Living Media - Bioaccumulation and Baseline Toxicity.

TL;DR: The chemical interactions of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) with soils and sediments (geosorbents) may result in strong binding and slow subsequent release rates that significantly affect remediation rates and endpoints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of the dilute sedimentary soot phase : Implications for PAH speciation and bioavailability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a method that allows quantification of soot carbon in dilute and complex sedimentary matrices to expand hydrophobic partition models to include soot partitioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of quantification methods to measure fire-derived (black/elemental) carbon in soils and sediments using reference materials from soil, water, sediment and the atmosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a comprehensive intercomparison of this type (multimethod, multilab, and multisample), focusing mainly on methods used for soil and sediment BC studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sorption kinetics of hydrophobic organic compounds to natural sediments and soils
Shian-Chee Wu,Philip M. Gschwend +1 more
TL;DR: A closed-loop-stripping apparatus with a photoionization detector operating in-line was used to examine the effects of sorbate hydrophobicity, sorbent particle size, and system temperature on solid-solution exchange over times of seconds to days, indicating that a single effective diffusivity parameter can be used to quantify the sorption kinetics.
