▼ This study explores the potential of using PEBA as a sorbent for removing phenolic compounds from wastewater. The sorption isotherms of phenol, 4-chlorophenol (4-CP), 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), 4-methylphenol (4-MP) and catechol from their respective single solute solutions were studied based on the Linear, Langmuir and Freundlich models. The Freundlich model was shown to be suitable to represent the equilibrium sorption of all the phenolic compounds in the PEBA sorbent, and the sorption capacity of these phenolic compounds in PEBA is in the order: catechol<phenol<4-MP<4-NP<4-CP. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that phenol sorption in PEBA was a spontaneous exothermic process.
The sorption kinetics was studied using PEBA sorbent in the form of a flat membrane with well-defined dimensions to help identify the mechanism and rate controlling step of the sorption process. The kinetic data were fitted with the pseudo-first and -second order models as well as the diffusion model. The pseudo-second order model was shown to fit the experimental data better than the pseudo-first order model, and an oversight in the model fitting with regard to equilibrium sorption capacity in prior work was discussed and corrected. Sorption of phenol, 4-CP, 4-NP, 4-MP and catechol in PEBA was represented by the pseudo-second order model, while mass diffusion inside the sorbent was not negligible for thick membranes.
Multi-solute sorption isotherms and kinetics were determined for binary and quinary solute systems. The competitive Freundlich model and the IAST model were fitted to the equilibrium data. It was found that the competitive Freundlich model was adequate to represent isotherms for all binary solute systems studied; however, there was a considerable deviation between the model predictions and the experimental data in the quinary solute system. Strongly sorbed solutes tended to inhibit the sorption of weakly sorbed solutes. The sorption competition was shown to affect the sorption kinetics of individual solutes, and such effect was found to be related to the molecular size of the sorbate component and its affinity to the sorbent.
Chemical elution, thermal regeneration and vacuum-assisted thermal regeneration were proposed and studied for regeneration of PEBA sorbent exhausted with the phenolic compounds. Ethanol, methanol and NaOH solution were all effective regenerants for the sorbent, and no significant change in the sorption characteristics was observed for a number of sorption-regeneration cycles. Thermal regeneration (90°C for 2 h) was also effective for regenerating PEBA exhausted with phenol and 4-MP. When exhausted with 4-MP, the PEBA sorbent could be regenerated using vacuum-assisted thermal regeneration (80°C for 3 h at a vacuum pressure of 5 kPa), and highly concentrated solutions (≈70,000 ppm) of 4-MP were collected.
PEBA fibres were prepared and immobilized in a packed-bed for column sorption studies. The effects of inlet feed concentration, flow rate, fibre diameter and flow interruption on the breakthrough…

▼ The nitroaromatic explosive 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene is a widespread, toxic groundwater contaminant. The objective of this work was to describe TNT fate in contaminated aquifer sediments. A series of bench scale experiments and model simulations were performed to evaluate the fate of TNT in historically contaminated aquifer sediments. A TNT contaminated site on the National Priorities List, Former Nansemond Ordnance Depot (FNOD), Suffolk, VA, served as the model site for this work. To describe desorption rate in contaminated sediments, two approaches for a first order single-site desorption were evaluated. In Model 1, the driving force for desorption is mathematically related to the sorbed phase concentrations, whereas in Model 2 the rate is based on aqueous phase concentrations. Two data sets were used to evaluate the models: (1) batch draw-and-fill experiments using FNOD sediment and (2) results from a previously published report from the Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant. Both models provided adequate fit, but Model 2 was better behaved and first order parameters fell within a smaller confidence interval. Draw-and-fill experiments were observed to yield first-order mass transfer coefficients well aligned with those derived from column experiments.
The effect of organic amendments on anaerobic TNT degradation rate and microbial community structure in culture enriched from the FNOD site was studied in batch anaerobic microcosms. TNT readily degraded under all experimental conditions. A reductive pathway of TNT degradation was observed across all conditions, however, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis revealed distinct bacterial community compositions. In all microcosms, Gram-negative γ- or β-Proteobacteria and Gram-positive Negativicutes or Clostridia were observed. According to non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis of DGGE profiles, the microcosm communities were most similar to field site sediment corresponding to the highest TNT concentration, relative to moderately and uncontaminated sediments, suggesting that TNT contamination itself is a major driver of microbial community structure. Candidate degraders were identified and a Pseudomonas sp. was observed to be stimulated under all conditions, which was confirmed to rapidly degrade TNT in pure culture.
Mathematical modeling of the batch microcosm results revealed that TNT degraded 1.7 times faster in lactate amended microcosms than in ethanol amended microcosms, which degraded 3.0 times faster than natural organic matter amended microcosms. Simulation of the TNT degradation pathway included determination of branching coefficients representing whether the first reduction of nitro group occurred in the ortho or para position or whether TNT was removed from the aqueous phase (i.e. bound to dissolved organic matter). Branching coefficients were greater for initial reduction of para (17-27% initial TNT concentration) over ortho (3-9% initial TNT concentration) for all test conditions. However, a greater degradate recovery and a different…

▼ Zur Erhöhung der Produktqualität von Leuchtmitteln
ist es erforderlich, Schutzgas für Handschuh-Kästen, s.g.
Gloveboxen, mit hoher Reinheit bereitzustellen. Da das Schutzgas
wiederverwendet werden muss, wird es kontinuierlich auf einem hohen
Reinheitsgrad feingereinigt durch sorptive Vorgänge, insbesondere
Wasser-Adsorption, Sauerstoff- Chemisorption und, falls es sich um
Argon oder Helium als Schutzgas handelt, z.B. auch
Stickstoff-Absorption. Dazu wird das Schutzgas durch
Festbett-Schüttungen geleitet, insbesondere mit möglichst hohem
Volumenstrom in Bezug auf das Festbett-Volumen. Eine Optimierung
des Reinigungseffekts ist dabei in Abhängigkeit der
Stofftransport-Eigenschaften der einzelnen Fremdstoffe zu erzielen,
insbesondere bei einer Austritts-Konzentration weit unter 10 % der
Eintritts- Konzentration (etwa 0,1 bis 10 ppmv), wobei für jeden
Fremdstoff ein optimaler Kompromiss zwischen einer niedrigen
Raumgeschwindigkeit und einer hohen Gasreinigungskonstante gefunden
werden muss.

▼ Trace metal speciation in aquatic environments is inherently complex due to the large number
of possible interactions with dissolved and particulate components. Adsorption onto iron
oxyhydroxide and bacterial surfaces, as well as the formation of metal-ligand complexes can
play important roles in controlling the fate and transport of trace metals in natural
environments. The objective of this study is to describe and understand metal speciation and
distribution in a complex biogeochemical system by incrementally increasing the complexity
from simple binary systems to a dynamic quaternary system containing a trace metal, iron
oxide and bacteria that are active and metabolizing an organic ligand.
Copper, cadmium, and phthalic acid (H2Lp) adsorption onto ferrihydrite in binary systems
was well reproduced using the diffuse layer model (DLM). The adsorption of H2Lp
adsorption was analogous to that of inorganic diprotic acids in terms of the relationship
between the adsorption constants and acidity constants. In ternary systems H2Lp caused Cu2+
or Cd2+ adsorption to be either enhanced (due to surface ternary complex formation) or
inhibited (due to solution complex formation) depending on the conditions. The DLM could
only describe the effect of H2Lp on metal ion
sorption by including ternary complexes of the
form ???FeOHMLp
(0), where ???FeOH is a surface site and M is Cu or Cd. The relationship
between binary metal adsorption constants and the ternary complex adsorption constants
from this and previous studies suggest several properties of ternary complexes. First, ternary
complex structures on both ferrihydrite and goethite are either the same or similar. Second,
those cations having large adsorption constants also have large equilibrium constants for
ternary complex formation. Third, ligands forming stronger solution complexes with cations
will also form stronger surface ternary complexes but because of the strong solution
complexes these ligands will not necessarily enhance cation adsorption.
The bacterial strain Comamonas spp. was isolated from the activated sludge of a wastewater
treatment plant. Comamonas spp. could effectively degrade H2Lp in the presence of Cd2+ and
ferrihydrite and was therefore chosen to study the effect of H2Lp degradation on Cd2+
speciation. Proton, cadmium and H2Lp adsorption onto Comamonas spp. were measured. The
Comamonas spp. titration curve is flatter than that of ferrihydrite, indicating a higher degree
of site heterogeneity at the bacterial surface. Adsorption edges of Cd2+ adsorption onto
Comamonas spp. occurred over about 4~5 pH units compared to those of ferrihydrite which occurred over ??? 2 pH units on a dry weight basis. Comamonas spp. can accumulate a larger
amount of Cd2+ than ferrihydrite especially under lower pH conditions. Proton and Cd2+
adsorption onto Comamonas spp. cells over a wide sorbent/sorbate and pH range was
reasonably well described by a four site non-electrostatic model. The acid-base and Cd2+
adsorption behaviour of Comamonas…

▼ Due to an increase in wildfires across the US and world, prescribed fires are implemented to reduce fuel loads. Obvious changes occur in the total organic matter by visual observations made after a fire, however, events lead to a production of hydrophobic substances due to the incomplete combustion of organic matter that have the potential to alter soil
sorption capabilities. The objective of this research is to determine the
sorption capabilities of field collected soil profiles subjected to various levels of prescribed burning using polar and nonpolar compounds. Laboratory controlled soil heating was also conducted to compare the
sorption capabilities of the burned soil to that of the collected bulk soil. Soil from Frances Marion National Forest in Cordesville, South Carolina was collected from three locations. WS80 serves as a control, which has never been exposed to prescribed burning, WS77 has been managed with prescribed burns for over 15 years, and WSAA was collected following a low-intensity prescribed burn the day prior to sampling. Field samples were collected at 2.5 cm incremental depths up to a total depth of 25 cm. Using nonpolar 1,3,5 trichlorobenzene and polar 1,3,5 trinitrobenzene, batch
sorption experiments were conducted to compare the
sorption capabilities of the soil at the surface and lower depths. This study demonstrated a long term prescribed burning has an impact on soil physical and chemical properties. Additionally, a gradient in
sorption properties as a function of depth of burned soil. Key findings of this study include increased
sorption capability of top layer soil from prescribed burned watershed WS77 increased for polar and nonpolar compounds compared to control site, WS80 (increase of 34% for TCB and 64% for TNB).

▼ Abstract
This research work details a systematic study of the structure and function of supramolecular host-guest systems. Host-guest inclusion complexes were formed between β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its copolymers (as hosts), with several types of guest molecules both in aqueous solution and the solid state. The research is divided into two themes; (1) structural characterization and dynamic properties of the inclusion compounds of β-CD with various guest systems in aqueous solution and the solid phase, and (2) heterogeneous adsorption and structural studies of β-CD based copolymers with various guest systems in aqueous solutions. The guest systems include alkyl and perfluoroalkyl carboxylates, perfluoroalkyl sulfonate, and p-nitrophenol (PNP) at variable experimental conditions.
In the first theme (chapter 2-5), host-guest complexes in the solid state were prepared using dissolution and slow cool methods at variable host/guest mole ratios (i.e., 1:1 and 2:1). The complexes were further characterized using 19F/13C DP/MAS and CP/MAS solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The solution state complexes were prepared in D2O for structural characterization using 1H/19F NMR spectroscopy. The NMR studies were complemented using FT-IR, thermal analyses (DSC, and TGA), and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Evidence for the formation of host-guest inclusion compounds (ICs) was provided using CP/MAS solids NMR spectroscopy and complexation-induced chemical shift (CIS) values of 1H/19F nuclei in aqueous solution. The β-CD/PFC ICs displayed variable guest geometry and hydration states as determined by the host-guest stoichiometry and the conformation of the guest. PFOA and SPFO form 1:1 and 2:1 ICs with β-CD, wherein the guest adopts a range of gauche and trans conformations, respectively. 1:1 host-guest complexes were concluded for short perfluorocarbon chains (i.e., PFBA) where the gauche conformation of the PFC guest in the bound state was favoured.
In the second theme (chapters 6–8), β-CD based copolymers were used as host materials. The structural characterization of a soluble poly-CD material (known as HDI-1) revealed that the solution behaviour of such polymeric hosts are sensitive to the presence of guest compounds such as p-nitrophenol (PNP) (i.e. chemo-responsive), as well as temperature variations (i.e. thermo-responsive). The host-guest chemistry of the soluble poly-CD material, as studied by 2-D solution NMR and induced circular dichroism (ICD) spectroscopy, indicates that PNP was bound within the cavity sites of β-CD and the interstitial domains of the copolymer (cf. Scheme 1.6 and chapter 6). The observed responsive nature of such polymeric host materials to temperature variation and chemical potential resembles behaviour characteristic of ‘smart materials’. Herein, ‘smart materials’ refer to systems which are responsive to external stimuli (e.g. temperature and chemical).
The adsorption properties of the soluble (HDI-1) and insoluble (HDI-3 and -6) poly-CD adsorbents with octyl and perfluorooctyl carboxylate and…

▼ The fate of actinides in the environment is of interest for a several
reasons. In oceanic surface waters actinides such as thorium and protactinium,
and in particular their ratio, are used as tracers of processes such as boundary
scavenging and paleocirculation. Thorium is also used to estimate residence
times and particle and colloid fluxes from the euphotic zone, which is useful in
global carbon budgets used to assess effects of global warming. Terrestrially,
contaminated areas in need of remediation, such as former nuclear weapons
production facilities, remain as repositories for no longer needed actinide
stockpiles or waste by-products such as plutonium. All three of these actinides:
thorium, protactinium, and plutonium are known to be particle-reactive but the
extent to which they sorb to immobile particles and mobile colloids can vary
with environmental conditions. Understanding controls on adsorption is
important in understanding uses and any limitations of these radioactive tracers
caused by colloids.
Often laboratory studies to understand actinide behavior are conducted
at concentrations (micro- to millimolar), which are orders of magnitude higher than they are found in the environment (femto- to picomolar). Colloids, a size
class of particles operationally defined as 1 nm to 1 µm in size, are ubiquitous in
aquatic systems. The effect colloids have on actinide particle association, i.e.
competitive or enhancing, can have a profound influence on the ultimate
behavior of the actinide.
The overall aim of this study is to assess
sorption of thorium,
protactinium and plutonium onto silica particles as a proxy for inorganic
particles found in surface or ocean waters. In addition to the binary system of
actinide/silica, the ternary system actinide/ organic colloid/ silica were also
carried out to determine the affect of the organic colloid has on particle
association. In particular, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) extracted
from laboratory grown bacteria and phytoplankton cultures were utilized as
they too are ubiquitous in aquatic systems and have shown to strongly complex
actinide ions, with EPS involved in oceanic scavenging of Th, as well as
immobilization/mobilization of Pu in contaminated areas on land.

▼ The increase in the presence of pharmaceuticals and endocrine disrupting hormones (EDCs) in the environment has had a direct impact on aquatic organisms in the environment. Estrogen hormones, one class of EDCs, have been quantified in natural soil and water systems at concentrations as low as parts per trillion (ng L-1). The presence of three estrogen compounds in particular, estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), and 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2), have been linked to human and animal waste disposal methods including land application of manure, wastewater irrigation, leaking septic systems, and direct stream discharge of wastewater effluent. To better understand estrogen behavior in the environment, numerous laboratory studies have focused on estrogen interactions with solid and solution matrices.
The goals of this dissertation were to (1) determine an optimal estrogen extraction solvent that yielded the largest E1, E2, and EE2 recovery percentages, (2) optimize separation of ten estrogen and estrogenic compounds using different stationary and mobile phase combinations and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), (3) characterize E1, E2, and EE2
sorption in soils varying in organic carbon content and in
sorption systems where pure water was used to equilibrate soils versus effluent, and (4) evaluate the possible presence of E1, E2, and EE2 in two different geographic regions within Pennsylvania: the Sinnemahoning Creek Watershed and the Penn State Living Filter Wastewater Irrigation Site
For the first objective, four organic solvents and three solid phase extraction (SPE) loading ratios were evaluated in order to determine an optimal method to extract estrogens from an agricultural soil (1.09 %TOC). Solvents used to extract the soil included methanol (MeOH), dichloromethane (DCM), ethyl acetate (EA) and 50:50 MeOH:DCM. The three SPE loading ratios tested were 0:100, 5:95, and 10:90 MeOH:water. This study also tested different soil sterilization methods to see if sterilization had any effect on estrogen recoveries from soil: sodium azide (NaN3) at varying concentrations (100, 250 and 350 mg L-1) and autoclaving. Extraction results indicated that either a MeOH extraction combined with an SPE procedure that uses a 10:90 MeOH:water loading ratio or a DCM extraction would be the optimal method. These methods yielded extraction recoveries ranging from 25.76 to 39.54%. Results from the microbial inhibition study indicated that out of the two inhibition methods tested, autoclaving the soil is the optimal soil sterilization method; autoclaving yielded the highest estrogen recoveries.
For the second objective, standard solutions containing ten estrogenic compounds were separated using six different stationary phase and mobile phase combinations. Three stationary phases were evaluated, C18, biphenyl, and RP-Amide, and two mobile phase organic modifiers were evaluated, ACN and MeOH. Results indicated that the combination of C18 and ACN provided the greatest separation. When C18 and ACN were used to analyze the combined…

▼ Microconstituents (MCs) have become an emerging concern to scientists and researchers. Due to the development of analytical technology, it is now possible to study MCs at ηg/L to μg/L levels.
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are the major point source for MCs entering the environment based on the literature. WWTPs are known to be unable to remove many MCs to a safe level. In order to fully understand the fate of MCs in WWTPs and to further improve the design of WWTPs in terms of MC removal, it is necessary to examine removal mechanisms such as sorption and biodegradation in WWTPs.
Three MCs, bisphenol A (BPA), 17-α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) and triclosan (TCS), were chosen for this study. They are chemicals reported to be hydrophobic and have low vapor pressure, which makes sorption a highly potential removal mechanism.
Primary sludge and activated sludge (AS) were used to perform sorption kinetics and isotherm experiments for BPA, EE2 and TCS. Primary sludge was collected from local WWTPs, and AS was generated from a lab-scale continuous flow bioreactor system maintained at solids retention times of 15, 10 and 5 d and hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 6 h. Alum was added to synthetic wastewater influent at concentrations typically used for phosphorus removal at some plants. Alum has the potential to change sludge structure and influence the sorption process. A comparison was made with AS as the adsorbent with and without alum addition to the AS to study the influence of alum on the sorption processes.
The selected MCs were found to reach sorption equilibrium with primary sludge within 7 h. A pseudo second-order kinetic model was an excellent fit to describe the sorption processes of selected MCs.
The solids-liquid partitioning coefficient (Kd) was determined for the three chosen MCs. The Kd values found for primary sludge and AS are very close. The Kd for MCs sorbed to AS in this study were compared with the Kd for AS without alum addition. Although alum addition showed no influence on effluent soluble chemical oxygen demand, it decreases the Kd for BPA and EE2 sorbed to AS. In contrast, a much higher Kd for TCS was observed for AS with alum addition.
Judging from the R2 values, the linear sorption model is not suitable for some of the isotherms. Langmuir and Freundlich sorption isotherms were further used to fit the experimental data by applying linear regression and nonlinear regression approaches. The Freundlich isotherm was found to be the most suitable model to describe the experiment data.

▼ Estrogens produced by livestock can be released into soils when their manure is spread onto agricultural land. This is the first study to determine the
sorption of a range of estrogens in a wide range of soils at the regional scale, including the
sorption of the phytoestrogen equol which had never been previously studied.
Sorption increased in the order of 17β-estradiol=estriol <estrone<equol in surface soils collected from 41 agricultural fields in Alberta and was significantly positively correlated with soil organic carbon content (SOC) for all estrogens. 17β-estradiol was further investigated and its mineralization in non-amended and manure-amended soils never exceeded 30% at 90 days, which suggest that even under optimum environmental conditions for mineralization, 17β-estradiol or its metabolites estrone and/or estriol appear to have a relatively long persistence in Alberta soils. Maximum 17β-estradiol mineralization was significantly positively correlated with
sorption and hence increased in soils with greater SOC such as those used in this study with a long-term history of solid beef manure applications. Two ELISAs were developed using rabbit polyclonal antibodies for future field experiments and environmental monitoring. Of these, a developed 17β-estradiol+estrone+estriol ELISA could detect estriol in water from an edge of field experiment at concentrations as low as 1 ng mL-1.

▼ Vanadium is a white bright metal that belongs to group 5 in the periodic table of elements. It can exist in different oxidation states from -2 to +5 although the forms can be found naturally in the environment are (III), (IV) and (V). As vanadium is toxic at high concentrations, and as vanadium is a common contaminant from e.g., steel slags, more detailed knowledge on the environmental behavior of this metal is required. One important property is its sorption to soils, as this will determine the bioavailability and the risk of leaching from soils. In surface soils vanadium(V) is commonly the predominating redox species. Therefore the purpose of this study was to determine vanadium(V) sorption in 7 different soils in order to investigate the factors determining vanadium(V) sorption and to estimate the capacity of the soils to bind vanadium. From laboratory adsorption experiments, vanadium sorption has been studied as a function of pH, vanadium(V) concentration, and phosphorus status. The adsorbed vanadium(V) of investigated soils was compared on the basis of the Freundlich parameters m and log <em>Kf</em>. The clay content of the soil and the content of oxalate soluble iron and aluminum were two important factors for the vanadium(V) sorption behavior. The higher the values of these soil properties, the stronger was vanadium(V) sorption. Among the soils investigated here the sorption strength was highest for the Kungängen A3 soil and then decreased in the following order Säby, Kungsängen D3, Pustnäs, Termunck, Guadalajara and Zwijnaarde. It is notable that the three soils with the strongest vanadium(V) sorption were clay soils, whereas the other four were sandy or silty soils. The pH dependence of vanadium sorption was also determined. The results show that the percentage sorbed vanadium(V) increases with decreasing pH. This is due probably to the anion properties of vanadium(V) (i.e. vanadate) in combination with increased positive surface charge on the soil colloids at lower pH. Moreover there is a competition between phosphate and vanadium(V) for sorption sites, which will cause less vanadium(V) sorption in soils. Therefore both the pH value and the phosphorus status are two additional factors that influence the vanadium sorption properties of soils.

▼ This dissertation pioneers the macroscopic
characterization of uranyl peroxide nanocluster interactions with
different mineral surfaces. Batch
sorption experiments were
conducted in order to determine the effects of time, pH, ionic
strength, sorbate concentration, and sorbent concentration on the
sorption of
[(UO

6060-

48-
(U
24Pp
12) to hematite
(α-Fe
2O
3), goethite
(α-FeOOH), montmorillonite, quartz (SiO
2),
and anorthite. This work reveals that
U
60 persists in the presence of Fe(III)
minerals, montmorillonite, and common alkali ions for months. The
sorption behavior of U
60 in the presence of
Fe(III) minerals mimics that of a discrete anionic species whose
contacts at the mineral-water interface are driven by the formation
of electrostatic, outer-sphere surface complexes.
U
60 also survives the
sorption-desorption
process. In clay mineral suspensions, the counter-cations
associated with the cluster undergo cation exchange reactions with
exchangeable cations associated with the clay. The type of cation
(i.e., monovalent or divalent) that is exchanged and the amount
present in the system largely dictates the removal of
U
60 from solution via surface precipitation
to form large agglomerates of clusters. The
sorption of
U
60 to minerals that have a low point of
zero charge, (i.e., quartz and anorthite) is not favorable under
alkaline conditions due to repulsion of the negatively-charged
mineral surface and the negatively-charged uranyl peroxide cage.
The incorporation of the pyrophosphate ligand
(P
2O
74-)
into the framework of uranyl peroxide nanoclusters leads to the
formation of functionalized uranyl peroxide nanoclusters. The
pyrophosphate-functionalized nanocluster
U
24Pp
12 may form
specific interactions with hematite and goethite surfaces through
the terminal oxygen atoms of the pyrophosphate unit.
The removal of U
60 and
U
24Pp
12 are not due
to surface-mediated reduction of U(VI) to U(IV) by interactions
with minor reducing components in goethite, hematite and
montmorillonite. The governing rate laws describing
U
60 and
U
24Pp
12 interactions
with goethite and hematite were determined through the use of a
kinetic analysis derived as a part of this work. The rate of uptake
and the amount of
U
24Pp
12 removed in
systems containing goethite was greater than compared to
U
60. These results demonstrate that the rate
of uptake of particular uranium nanoclusters may be largely
dependent on the charge density of the clusters as well as the
functionality of the linkages connecting uranyl peroxide polyhedral
units.

▼ The thesis encompasses the development and characterisation of a novel polydimethylsiloxane-microdiamond (PDMS-μDiamond) composite sorbent for application within ‘in-sample extraction’ prior to either liquid desorption (LD) or thermal desorption (TD) and gas chromatography (GC) analysis.
Chapter 1 introduces a review of the novel coatings (other than PDMS) developed over the last five years for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE). The review focuses on the selectivity of each, as well as the physical, chemical and thermal stabilities of these coatings, which are based on a range of carbon materials, functional polymers, metal organic frameworks, and various nanoparticles. The majority of these materials exhibit high thermal and chemical stability, along with unique selectivity profiles to extend the potential application of SBSE. The review also identifies how the extractive stir bars (SBs) modified with these coatings have been used to develop methods based more on LD-high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) than on the TD-GC. Therefore, highlighting how future research should focus on how these novel coatings can be applied with TD-GC.
Chapter 2 describes several systematic experiments involving preparation, characterisation, and final application of the non-porous and porous PDMS-μDiamond composite rods as sorptive phases for extracting model solutes from wine samples, followed by their quantitation using LD-GC-FID. Introducing ~60 wt.% of μDiamond particles (2-4 μm) within the PDMS matrix gave several advantages: (1) significant increase in density (up to ~170% increase compared to PDMS) while maintaining physical integrity, (2) significant improvement in mechanical stability, (3) increased thermal stability up to 450-500 ºC, and (4) significantly higher thermal conductivity (~108% higher than that of the PDMS). The composite sorptive rods were applied in the development of a robust PDMS-μDiamond-LD-GC-FID method for the analysis of the model solutes (R(2)>0.98, intra-day precision RSD ~1.3-19.4%, accuracy in terms of % recovery ~87->100% RSD 2.1-12.5%). The porous rods showed improved % recovery for most of the test solutes (>10-20%) compared to a commercial PDMS phase under identical analytical conditions. The method’s limit of detection (LOD) (0.6-27.3 μg L(-1)) further confirmed its robustness and its applicability for the trace chemical analysis.
In the Chapter 3, the development of a rapid and a solvent-free method for removing siloxane oligomers from the PDMS-μDiamond composite rods is reported. The method involved post-cure thermal conditioning of the composite rods within a GC liner at 350 °C for 12 h under a helium flow of 2.5 mL min(-1). Significant reduction of siloxane oligomers, as seen in the chromatograms (obtained by placing the rods within the GC liner at 200-350 ºC), compared to the control chromatograms confirmed the effectiveness of the method, which was ~8 times faster than an alternative solvent purification method (washing the rods in toluene for 72 h, followed by…

▼ In the U.S. almost 140 sites have been contaminated by uranium mining and milling operations or by the storage of radioactive materials. In-situ recovery (ISR) facilities still face challenges restoring water to pre-mining conditions and leave behind elevated uranium concentrations. Bioremediation and reactive transport modeling are potential tools to mitigate the impact of uranium contamination on human and environmental health, through their ability to immobilize uranium and assess the effectiveness of natural uranium attenuation. This project investigated biogeochemical aspects of both active and natural remediation of uranium contaminated subsurface for two field sites: The Smith Ranch Highland (SRH) site in WY, and the Rifle, Integrated Field Research Challenge (IFRC) site in CO. Our project objectives were to study the transformation of organic substrate during biostimulation and assess uranium retardation due to
sorption with sediments taken from an ISR site. This thesis presents two research projects that address the remediation and risk assessment of uranium contaminated sites. The first project evaluated the impact of added organic carbon on the long-term biogeochemical attenuation of uranium in the subsurface of a former mill tailings site. Fluorescence and specific ultraviolet absorption (SUVA) analyses were used together with dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measurements to track organic carbon dynamics during and post-biostimulation of the 2011 Rifle IFRC experiment. An electron mass balance was performed on well CD01 to determine if any carbon sinks were unaccounted for. DOC values increased to 1.76 mM-C during biostimulation, and 3.18 mM-C post-biostimulation over background DOC values of 0.3-0.4 mM-C. Elevated DOC levels persisted 90 days after acetate injections ceased. The electron mass balance revealed that assumed electron acceptors would not account for the total amount of acetate consumed. Fluorescence spectra showed an increase in signals associated with soluble microbial products (SMP), during biostimulation, which disappeared post-biostimulation despite an increase in DOC. SUVA analyses, indicated that DOC present post-biostimulation is less aromatic in nature, compared to background DOC. Our results suggest that microbes convert injected acetate into a carbon sink that may be available to sustain iron reduction post-stimulation The second project consisted of two sets of column experiments and attempted to evaluate the impact of alkalinity and pH on the
sorption of uranium in sediments from an ISR site. The ability of thermodynamic models to predict uranium behavior under conditions relevant to ISR restoration sites was also tested. Sediments at three different depths from a monitoring well at the SRH site were used in nine column studies and six batch experiments to study the
sorption capacity of SRH sediments and estimate uncertainties associated with fitted parameters. Sediments were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) for dominant mineralogy and…

▼ The occurrence of residual antibiotics in the environment has been a worldwide issue, and there is a need to develop methods for antibiotics removal from contaminated water. In this thesis work, the sorption of four antibiotics, namely chlortetracycline (CTC), oxytetracycline (OTC), ofloxacin (OFL), and enrofloxacin (ENR), on natural zeolite was investigated. The impact of pH and natural organic matter (NOM) on the sorption process was examined, and the maximum sorption capacity was calculated using the Langmuir-Freundlich sorption model. The results showed that at a neutral pH the maximum sorption capacity for the antibiotics was up to 8 mg/g. The sorption capacity increased as the solution pH decreased. The presence of NOM reduced the sorption of OTC but enhanced the sorption of the remaining antibiotics.

▼ Natural sorbents for the removal of free toluene, hexane, and toluene/hexane mixtures from surface water were made using lecithin, food grade oils (canola, sunflower, safflower and corn oil) and water, or lecithin, hydroxystearic acid (HSA) and soy wax. These emulsions were gel-like, with shear elastic moduli (G’) greater than the shear viscous moduli (G”). The addition of either toluene and hexane rigidified lecithin-based gels by altering the structure of the droplet clusters or characteristics of the lecithin films at the oil-water interface. Lecithin based gels could absorb up to 33% of toluene and 67% of hexane over 20 hrs. The addition of HSA and soy wax also increased the cohesiveness of the gels.

▼ Purpose: Beryllium (Be) and lead (Pb) sorption is important to the utility of the radioisotopes of these elements for sediment fingerprinting. I examined the sorption of Be and Pb to exposed fluvial sediment under varying chemical conditions representative of freshwater streams draining two distinct Critical Zone environments in the eastern United States: the mid-Atlantic piedmont and heavily glaciated Great Lakes region. Materials and Methods: Batch experiments were completed using well-characterized in-stream deposit sediments collected from these two systems and varying solutions to reflect background and elevated levels of iron oxide in the form of goethite across times ranging from 0.25 to 360 h. The mid-Atlantic piedmont sediment had further treatments testing dissolved organic carbon (up to 11.86 mg L-1) and increased sediment to solution ratio (up to 8000 mg: 1 L) effects on Pb and Be sorption. Results and Discussion: Beryllium partition coefficients (Kd) ranged from a log Kd of 1.46 to 3.48 L kg-1 and Pb ranged from 0 to 5.03 L kg-1 across all treatments displaying several noticeable patterns. Two-stage sorption was observed such that sorption increased over time across all treatments and substrates. Goethite additions either enhanced or reduced sorption relative to the base treatment depending on the original sediment and mixing time. Lead sorption with the addition of 100 mg of goethite increased during shorter mixing times before being surpassed by the base treatment at longer mixing times for both the mid-Atlantic piedmont and glaciated Great Lakes sediment. Beryllium sorption was increased with the mid-Atlantic piedmont sediment whereas it was primarily decreased with the glaciated Great Lakes sediment. The 1 mg of goethite generally showed equal to or slightly enhanced sorption relative to the base treatment of both Pb and Be with the exception of Pb sorption to the Great Lakes sediment. The highest DOC concentration that I tested (11.86 mg L-1) retained a greater amount of Be and Pb in solution compared to other treatments after 360 h. Increasing the sediment to solution ratio showed decreased partition coefficients across all analogous times for Be compared to the base treatment whereas Pb sorption surpassed the unaltered treatment after 24 h. Conclusions: It is not recommended to use either 7Be or 210Pb in fluvial systems with high background concentrations of DOC because the DOC was shown to inhibit sorption to sediment surfaces and it could produce erroneous results in sediment fingerprinting studies unless that inhibition or loss is accounted for. The goethite treatments produced mixed results and further research is needed to parse out conditions that enhance or inhibit the sorption of fallout radionuclides in the presence of stream sediments with varying amounts of organic matter occlusion of surface binding sites. Increased sediment to solution ratios increased sorption of Pb suggesting that Pb would be a conservative tracer in fluvial systems with high sediment delivery. These results…

▼ Per- and poly-fluorinated substances (PFASs) are a group of compounds with similar structures and have a unique set of properties which make them resistant to biodegradation, available to bioaccumulate, and potentially toxic to many organisms in the environment. Yet there is currently limited information on the fate and bioavailability of PFASs in the soil environment. The thesis investigates the
sorption and bioavailability of three commonly reported perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in a wide range of soils with varying properties and determines if
sorption coefficients and bioaccumulation can be predicted from soil properties and are affected by residence time in soil. Preliminary studies found that
sorption of 14C-perfluoroocatanioc acid (PFOA) was considerable on common laboratory consumables, e.g. centrifuge tubes and syringe filters. In contrast to reports in the literature,
sorption losses on polypropylene tubes were found to be significantly higher than on glass tubes.
Sorption losses were also significant using syringe filter membranes. This highlights that significant errors can occur, creating analytical bias during routine laboratory procedures.
Sorption (Kd) of perfluorooctane sulphonic acid (PFOS), 14C-PFOA and perfluorohexane sulphonic acid (PFHxS) was investigated in a wide range of Australian soils with varying properties. Modelling was conducted to determine if soil properties could predict
sorption coefficients using two modelling strategies: multiple linear regression (MLR) using traditional laboratory chemical analyses of soils; and diffuse reflectance Fourier transform mid-infrared spectroscopy coupled to partial least squares regression (DRIFT-PLSR). The
sorption coefficients for all three compounds were at the lower end of the ranges previously reported, perhaps due to the low amounts of organic carbon (OC) and alkaline pH of many Australian soils. The retention of PFOA was weak in all soils, but even more so in subsoils, indicating that PFOA could easily be leached through surface- and sub-soil horizons into ground-waters. The retention of PFOS and PFHxS was not affected by soil depth. The
sorption of all three PFAAs was influenced by their structural differences and different soil properties. The
sorption of PFOA was positively affected by OC and silt-plus-clay content, PFOS
sorption was positively correlated to OC content and negatively correlated to pH and PFHxS
sorption was positively correlated to OC content, clay content and concentrations of exchangeable cations. DRIFT-PLSR modelling indicated that soils dominated with quartz and pyrophyllite minerals had a low affinity for PFOA
sorption. The DRIFT-PLSR modelling of PFOS and PFHxS
sorption was unreliable, likely due to the low and narrow range of Kd values found. For PFOA modelling, similar results were found between the MLR and DRIFT-PLSR modelling strategies which suggested that DRIFT-PLSR could be used as a quicker and cheaper technique to predict
sorption compared to traditional laboratory analyses of soil coupled with MLR. The aging…

▼ Soluble manganese (Mn) is a common contaminant in drinking water sources. High levels of Mn can lead to aesthetic water quality problems, necessitating removal of Mn during treatment to minimize consumer complaints. Mn may be removed during granular media filtration by the â natural greensand effect,â in which soluble Mn adsorbs to manganese oxide-coated (MnOx(s)) media and is then oxidized by chlorine, forming more manganese oxide. This research builds on a previous model developed by Merkle et al. (1997) by either neglecting the empirically determined available fraction of
sorption sites (referred to as the â simpleâ model), which took into account the fact that some adsorption sites in the porous media were inaccessible, or by explicitly accounting for the transport and reaction processes within the porous structure of the MnOx(s) coating (referred to as the â mechanisticâ model). Both models were applied to experimental data and used to evaluate the oxidation rate constant, which was the only unknown parameter. An inverse relationship between the fitted reaction rate constant and chlorine concentration was observed, showing that the oxidation reaction does not depend on chlorine concentration for the experimental conditions considered. In a sensitivity analysis, the adsorption isotherm and reaction rate were found to have the greatest impact on predicted Mn removal. The simple model should prove useful for designing contactor units for manganese removal, provided its limitations are clearly understood, while the mechanistic model should be able to resolve differences in the various types of oxide coating (internal porosity, surface area and coating thickness) and will allow a more fundamental and mechanistically-consistent evaluation of the appropriate form of the oxidation rate expression. However, further research is needed to more completely characterize the adsorption and reaction mechanisms over the range of conditions commonly encountered in water treatment plants.

▼ Semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) are ubiquitous in indoor environments. Because they partition strongly to dust other surfaces in the indoor environments, most SVOCs persist for years after the source is removed. Biomonitoring data based on blood and urine testing suggested the universal and significant human exposure to SVOCs, which may result in serious adverse health effects. However, because of the poor understanding of their transfer process from sources to indoor surfaces, significant uncertainties exist for the estimation of exposure to SVOCs through various pathways and effective strategies to limit such exposure remains hamstrung. The goal of this dissertation is to explicitly elucidate the
sorption of important and emerging SVOCs to dust and other surfaces in the indoor environments. The specific research objectives are to 1) investigate the emission,
sorption, and fate of phthalates in a residential test house; 2) characterize the direct transfer of SVOCs from sources to settled dust through systematic chamber study; and 3) measure SVOC levels in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) filter dust of U.S. lowincome homes and investigate their association with concentrations in settled dust, seasons, building characteristics, and childhood asthma. Strong
sorption of phthalates was observed on interior surfaces, including dust, dish plates, windows, mirrors, fabric cloth, and wood, in a residential test house. In addition, when dust is in contact with the PVC floorings, equilibrium dust concentrations of phthalates are orders of magnitude higher than typical dust concentrations reported in the literature. And we found that the equilibrium concentrations of phthalates in dust can be predicted with the concentrations of phthalates within the gas layer in adjacent with the flooring materials. Finally, the results suggest that HVAC filter dust is a useful sampling media to monitor indoor SVOC concentrations with high sensitivity. When using settled dust, in addition to considering seasonal influences, it is very important to know the sampling location because the types and levels of SVOCs might be related to the local materials.

▼ Die vielfältige Verwendungsweise von Plastik, sei es als Gehäuseteile oder als Mikroplastik in Scheuermitteln führte seit den 1950er Jahren zu einem rasanten Anstieg im globalen Bedarf. (Mikro-) Plastik kann durch seine hohen Sorptionskapazitäten organische Substanzen aufnehmen und könnte dadurch zu einem toxikologischen Risiko werden. Zusätzlich führen die hohen Produktionszahlen und der unvorsichtige Einsatz von Plastik zu einem starken Eintrag in die Umwelt. Besonders Reifengranulat (TCR) erfreut sich als günstige Alternative zu elektrochemischen und photochemischen Methoden zur Entfernung von Schadstoffen sowie Aktivkohle als Passivsammler größter Beliebtheit und wird oft auch bewusst in der Bauindustrie als Zement-Verbundstoff und Füllmaterial für Sportplätze in die Umwelt eingetragen. Da TCR als Elastomer in vielen Statistiken nicht als Plastik geführt wird, wird dieses bisher als potentielles Risiko ignoriert und deshalb nur wenig untersucht. Die seltenen Studien zu diesem Thema belegen jedoch große Sorptionskapazitäten. Als Grund wird der hohe Anteil an Kohlenstoff vermutet. Welche molekularen Eigenschaften das Sorptionsverhalten beeinflussen ist weitgehend unerforscht, doch scheinen Hydrophobizität und Polarität der organischen Materialien den größten Einfluss auf die hohen Sorbatkonzentrationen am TCR zu haben.
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es deshalb, einige dieser Wissenslücken um das TCR und dessen häufigsten Bestandteile Styrol-Butadien-Kautschuk (SBR) und Industrieruß (CB) zu untersuchen, die molekularen Wechselwirkungen zu identifizieren und diese mittels Sorptionsisothermen zu beschreiben. Zusätzlich wird mit verschiedenen wissenschaftlichen Methoden versucht, einige der Materialeigenschaften von CB, SBR und TCR zu definieren.
Erwartet wird, aufbauend auf der vorhandenen Literatur, dass CB der Hauptträger der Sorptionseigenschaften von TCR ist und dass sich SBR stark davon unterscheidet. Zusätzlich wird Hydrophobizität und Polarität als maßgebliche Wechselwirkungen der Sorption angenommen, die jedoch von weiteren Eigenschaften, wenn auch in einem geringeren Ausmaß, verstärkt werden.
Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit bestätigen, dass CB, SBR und TCR eine große Sorptionsaffinität gegenüber den gewählten Sorbaten besitzen, diese jedoch nicht ausschließlich durch die Hydrophobizität und Polarität der organischen Moleküle gesteuert werden. Als sekundäre Sorptionseigenschaften wurden die Molekülstruktur, Dipol-Dipol-Wechselwirkungen, Van-der-Waals-Kräfte und Aromatizität identifiziert. Nicht bestätigt werden konnte die Hypothese, dass der CB-Anteil im TCR die Sorption dominiert. Die Sorptionsisothermen lassen auf ein ähnliches Sorptionsverhalten zwischen SBR und TCR schließen, welches von CB verschieden ist. SBR kann somit als Hauptverursacher der Sorption im TCR identifiziert werden. CB hat auf die Sorption nur einen geringen Einfluss, möglicherweise dadurch bedingt, dass die Poren des CB mit Polymer verfüllt sind.
Die Sorptionsisothermen belegen bei allen verwendeten Sorbaten nichtlineare Adsorption durch…

▼ L'irrigation par les eaux usées est une pratique intéressante dans les régions arides et semi-arides où la ressource en eau subit une pression accrue. Cependant, cette pratique risque de contaminer les sols par des contaminants chimiques tels que les polluants organiques émergents comme les médicaments. Les mécanismes de transfert et de transformation de ces molécules sont encore peu connus. L'objectif de cette thèse a été d'étudier les processus de biodégradation et de sorption des médicaments en conditions contrôlées, avec une réflexion dans le contexte de la réutilisation des eaux usées pour l'irrigation. Nous avons exploité la signature chirale de l'antidépresseur venlafaxine (VEN) et de son métabolite humain majeur O-desméthyl venlafaxine (ODV) afin de discriminer le processus biologique et les processus abiotiques. Les résultats au laboratoire ont montré une corrélation entre le taux de biodégradation et le changement de fraction énantiomérique. La fraction énantiomérique de la VEN a été ensuite suivie à la sortie d'une STEP et dans une rivière recevant ce rejet, où un changement de la fraction énantiomérique a été observé, montrant l'intérêt de mieux développer cette approche pour des études de biodégradation in situ. Le processus de sorption des molécules cationiques VEN et ODV a été étudié avec deux approches, statique en batch et dynamique en colonne de lixiviation, avec une comparaison avec les molécules neutres carbamazépine et son métabolite trans-10,11-dihydro-10,11-dihydroxy carbamazepine. L'étude en batch a montré que pH et force ionique a influencé la sorption des molécules cationiques mais pas celle des molécules neutres. L'échange cationique pourrait ainsi jouer un rôle important dans la sorption des molécules cationiques. L'étude de la lixiviation a montré que les molécules neutres ont été plus mobiles que les molécules cationiques et elles sont susceptibles de contaminer l'eau souterraine dans le cas de l'irrigation par des eaux usées.
Wastewater irrigation represents great interest in arid and semi-arid regions where water demand is important. However, wastewater irrigation results in, for example, soil contamination by emerging organic pollutants such as pharmaceuticals. Transport and transformation mechanisms of these substances are still poorly understood. The objective of this thesis was to study the processes of biodegradation and sorption of pharmaceutical products in laboratory experiments, with a special reflection in the context of wastewater irrigation. Firstly, we exploited the chiral signature of the antidepressant venlafaxine (VEN) and its major human metabolite O-desmethyl venlafaxine (ODV) in order to discriminate the biological processes from other processes. Laboratory experiment showed a correlation between the biodegradation rate and the change in enantiomer fraction. The VEN was then monitored at the outlet of a WWTP and in the river receiving the discharge. A change in enantiomer fraction showed the interest for a better development of this application to investigate in…

▼ Le travail de thèse présenté dans ce manuscrit a pour objectif de mettre en place un nouveau procédé d’élaboration de membranes à base de chitosane pour le traitement d’effluents acides contenants des ions métallique. Soluble en milieu aqueux acide, le chitosane présente la propriété de gélifier lorsque le pH devient basique, ce qui permet d’envisager l’élaboration de membrane sans solvant organique contrairement aux polymères synthétiques classiques. Par ailleurs, ce travail de thèse s’est intéressé à un procédé original de gélification par voie enzymatique, dans lequel la gélification in-situ de la solution de chitosane permet une structuration contrôlée de la membrane contrairement aux procédés classiques qui donnent lieu à un front de gélification. Une étude des cinétiques de gélification en fonction des paramètres d’élaboration (température et concentration en urée) a mis en évidence que seule la température est significativement influente sur le temps de gélification dès lors que la concentration en urée n’est pas limitante. Un modèle a été mis en place pour décrire la gélification enzymatique du chitosane afin de comprendre les mécanismes des cinétiques réactionnelles et de transferts lors de la formation du gel. Des membranes de chitosane ont ainsi été élaborées par le procédé par voie enzymatique, la porosité de ces membranes ayant été générée avec un agent porogène (PEG 6000) et une réaction d’acétylation du chitosane ayant permis d’obtenir des membranes insolubles en milieu acide. Les membranes obtenues ont été caractérisées en termes de morphologie et de propriétés fonctionnelles (filtration, sorption du Cu(II) comme élément métallique modèle).
The Ph-D work presented in this manuscript aims to develop a new process for elaborate chitosan membranes for treatment of acidic media containing metal ions. Soluble In acidic aqueous media, gelation occurs when the pH becomes basic, allowing elaboration of membrane without the use of organic solvents unlike classical synthetic polymers. Moreover, this Ph-D work has focused on an original process enzymatic gelation which the in-situ gelation of chitosan solution allows a controlled structuration of the membrane unlike conventional processes which leads to a front gelling.A study of gelation time as a function of the elaboration parameters (temperature and urea concentration) highlighted that only the temperature is a main parameter on gelation time since the urea concentration is not limiting. A model was developed to describe the chitosan enzymatic gelation in order to understand mechanisms of reaction kinetics and transfers during the gel formation.Chitosan membranes have been prepared by enzymatic process, the porosity of such membranes have been generated with a blowing agent (PEG 6000) and an acetylation of chitosan having yielded insoluble membranes in acid medium. The resulting membranes were characterized by their morphology and functional properties (filtration, sorption of Cu (II) as model metal element).

▼ The work presented in this thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is the sorption of Ni and Eu to granitic materials, and cation exchange capacity measurements for powdered and intact samples. The second part is method development on autoradiography. In the first part, static batch sorption experiments were carried out to study the relative sorption properties of different granitic rocks and minerals. Experimental data were described using non-electrostatic correction models such as the Langmuir, Freundlich and Linear models. Sorption data obtained for sorption in a constant pH environment and variable metal concentration were used to test the Component Additive Model (CAM). Sorption test studies carried out using energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis were used to map the sorption of Eu on an intact sample. The results showed the CAM was applicable for Ni sorption to BG but that it was not applicable for Eu sorption to any of the granitic rocks studied. The sorption data fitted the CAM in the following order; BG (1) > GA (0.7) > RG (0.5) > GG (0.2), GrG (0.2) for Ni sorption and RG (0.7) > BG (0.4) > GA (0.2), GG (0.2), GrG (0.2) for Eu sorption to the different granitic rocks. Values in brackets represent the ratio of Rd-predicted/Rd-calculated. Results from the application of the CAM showed it was not possible to predict the Rd of the bulk sample from the component minerals. Desorption studies at constant pH were analysed by calculating the hysteresis H. The results showed that the higher the Rd the higher the hysteresis. Surface complexation using JChess Geochemical Code was used to obtain surface complexation parameters for the metal-solid complex for sorption in variable pH and constant metal concentration. Experimental data were described by the mass action law to obtained proton stoichiometry at which the sorption edge is defined. Results showed the presence of NaCl decreased the sorption of Ni, and increased the sorption of Eu. Sorption kinetics experiments in different carbonate complexing environments were carried out to study the effect of carbonate on Eu sorption capacity and rate of sorption. Data were fitted to first and second order kinetic models to investigate the sorption rates. Results showed the sorption to be fast initially before reaching a steady state after more than 200 hours of equilibration. Kinetic data confirmed the low sorption capacity observed for quartz. Data obtained for sorption in a mixed radionuclide system were modelled using the Linear model and the surface complexation model. The surface complexation constants are correlated to the Rd values obtained from the linear sorption isotherms. Modelling the results using Rdmix and Rdsing showed that sorption was suppressed in a mixed system, with no effect observed for sorption to feldspar in single and mixed systems. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) measurements were undertaken to deduce a correlation between the CEC of powdered rock samples and intact sample using rock beakers developed from the British Geological Survey by…

▼ L'industrie nucléaire publique et militaire génère une quantité importante d'effluents liquides radioactifs qu'il faut traiter avant leur rejet dans l'environnement. Des procédés de décontamination alternatifs aux techniques industrielles (évaporation, traitement chimique) sont en cours de développement, comme par exemple le traitement en colonne ou le couplage filtration/sorption. Une partie des recherches associées à ces techniques de décontamination porte sur l'élaboration et la mise en forme de sorbants spécifiques. Dans ce contexte, les objectifs de cette thèse étaient d'une part d'étudier la synthèse en milieu CO2 supercritique (SC) de films de TiO2 déposés sur des supports macroporeux et d'autre part d'évaluer leur potentiel d'extraction dans ces procédés alternatifs. Une méthode de synthèse reproductible a été mise au point, basée sur la décomposition thermique de l'isopropoxyde de titane en milieu CO2 SC entre 150°C et 350°C. Dès 150°C, cette méthode permet la réalisation de films de TiO2 nanostructurés et adhérents sur des supports macroporeux en céramique (mousses, supports tubulaires en alumine α). L'effet de la température de synthèse de ces matériaux sur leurs caractéristiques physico-chimiques et leurs propriétés de sorption a été étudié sur des poudres de TiO2 élaborées dans les mêmes conditions que les films supportés. Les meilleures performances de sorption ont été observées pour la poudre obtenue à 150°C, du fait de sa plus grande densité de sites de surface par rapport aux poudres élaborée à 250°C et 350°C. Cette température de synthèse (150°C) a donc été sélectionnée pour l'étude détaillée des sorbants composites (TiO2/supports) afin d'évaluer leurs performances de sorption dans les procédés de traitement en continu. Les essais de sorption en colonne ont montré qu'une mousse en alumine macroporeuse (Φpore=400µm) revêtue de TiO2 est adaptée pour traiter des effluents en mode dynamique à fort débit. La taille des macropores et la hauteur de colonne sont des paramètres importants à maitriser. Pour le traitement par filtration/sorption, les membranes de TiO2 présentent une bonne résistance mécanique et sont capables d'extraire le strontium en mode dynamique. D'autre part dans le cas du strontium, les sorbants composites (TiO2/mousse ou TiO2/support tubulaire) sont régénérables à 100% à l'aide d'une solution aqueuse acidifiée (pH=3).
Public and military nuclear industry generates a significant amount of radioactive liquid waste which must be treated before being released into the environment. Decontamination methods alternative to the industrial techniques (evaporation, chemical treatment) are being developed, such as column treatments or coupled filtration/sorption processes. Current researches mainly focus on the development and shaping of specific sorbents. In this context, the objectives of this thesis were first to study the synthesis of TiO2 layers on macroporous ceramic supports in supercritical (SC) CO2 and then to evaluate their potential for radionuclide extraction in these alternative…

▼ Most deterioration processes in cement based
materials are closely related to moisture sorption and moisture
transport properties. Therefore, it is important to study these
properties, both theoretically and practically. This work is an
experimental investigation in this field. Nowadays, the cement
industry produces cements with increasing amounts of supplementary
cementitious materials (SCMs) to limit CO2 emissions from concrete
production. Knowledge about the moisture properties of concrete
made from these blended cements is limited. This project has
therefore been an attempt to further develop our understanding of
the moisture properties of cement based materials, such as sorption
isotherms and sorption transport properties in the presence of
SCMs. This has been done by studying sorption isotherms mainly
using the sorption balance method, and moisture transport
coefficients using both the cup method and a sorption dynamic
method. The experimental investigations were made on three types of
hydrated cement pastes and mortars (OPC, OPC + 70% slag and OPC +
10% silica fume) with three different w/b –ratios (w/b) for cement
paste (0.6, 0.5, 0.4) and two different w/b for cement mortar (0.5,
0.4). Sorption isotherms were determined for cement pastes and
mortars in both hygroscopic and the super-hygroscopic relative
humidity ranges using the sorption balance method, and the pressure
plate method. The conclusion from this part of the study was that
the desorption isotherms at low RH (0-30%) for different binders
and different w/b-ratios are similar. At higher RHs the samples
with silica fume and slag have higher moisture content than OPC
samples. This is explained by that they have a higher amount of gel
pores and a lower amount of capillary pores than OPC samples. The
sorption isotherm at high RHs is difficult to validate
experimentally, due to the critical RH of pore solutions.
Steady-state and transient measurements of transport coefficients
were also made. The dynamic sorption method was used to evaluate
the diffusivity in small paste samples. The results show that
Fick's law cannot completely describe the transport process in such
small samples and sorption behavior is therefore anomalous with two
processes with different time scales. One of these is
macro-diffusion into the sample, which takes place on a shorter
timescale in the small samples used. The second process takes place
on longer timescales and it is possibly related to the sorption in
nanometer-structure of materials. To better understand the
transport properties in sorption cycles, steady-state diffusion
coefficients of mortar samples were measured with a newly developed
cup method set-up. The measurements were done on both the
absorption and desorption limbs of sorption isotherms. For OPC
samples the results show a clear difference between the diffusion
coefficients in absorption and desorption with vapor content as
potential (Dv) and presented as a function of relative humidity
(RH). The Dv in desorption is higher than absorption especially at
high RHs.…

▼ In dieser Arbeit wurde eine universelle
Sorptionsmessapparatur für den Druckbereich von Vakuum bis 40MPa
und Temperaturen bis zu 200 °C entwickelt. Sie besteht aus einer
neuen Gas- und Dampfdosier- und Druckregelanlage zur
kontinuierlichen Erzeugung gasförmiger und überkritischer,
multinärer Gemische sowie einer verbesserten Magnetschwebewaage mit
neuartigen Probenbehältern und neuem Messprinzip. So können neben
reinen Sorptionsmessungen auch konvektive
Stoffübergangskoeffizienten und Reaktionsgeschwindigkeiten bestimmt
werden. Mit der optimierten Ansteuerung der Schwebekupplung sind
erstmals ein Durchströmen von Flüssigkeiten und das Erzeugen von
Wirbelschichten in der Hochdruckgravimetrie möglich, was die
benötigten Messzeiten erheblich verkürzt. Für die Bestimmung der
selektiven
Sorption multinärer Sorptive wurde eine kontinuierliche
Hochdruck-Probennahmestrecke für ein Massenspektrometer entwickelt
die bei Drücken von 0,1-40MPa entmischungs- und kondensationsfrei
Proben entnimmt.
