Air samples were collected in June of 2004 from four sites the city Guangzhou, a typical urban center South China, to determine levels, compositional profiles, and gas-particle distribution 11 polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners (BDE-28, -47, -66, -100, -99, -85, -154, -153, -138, -183, -209). The arithmetic mean atmospheric concentrations sigmaPBDEs (sum all target PBDE except for BDE-209) background comparable or slightly higher than those other places around world. BDE-209,...

Soils play an important role in the distribution and biogeochemical cycling of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) as they are a major reservoir sink for PBDEs due to their large sorption capacity. In this study, concentrations, compositional profiles, mass inventories, fate sigma9PBDEs (28, 47, 66, 100, 99, 154, 153, 138, 183) BDE 209 were investigated 33 surface soils, six profile three point-source polluted soils (close e-waste dismantling sites) from Pearl River Delta (PRD), China....

The nonhydrolyzable carbon (NHC) and black (BC) in three contaminated soils seven sediments from the Pearl River Delta Estuary, China, were isolated upon treatments with an acid hydrolysis method a combustion at 375 °C, respectively, their sorption isotherms for phenanthrene (Phen) established. It was found that NHC is chemically structurally different biopolymer humic substances consists mainly of aliphatic aromatic using elemental analysis, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C...

Concentrations of persistent halogenated hydrocarbons (PHHs) were determined in 13 consumer fish species (a total 390 individuals) collected from a major fish-farming region China. The potential health risks PHHs associated with consumption China was also systematically assessed regionally and globally. In all samples, DDTs, HCHs, PCBs, PBDEs the predominant PHH residues, median levels (ranges) being 6.0 (0.14−698.9), 0.50 (0.13−24.06), 0.10 (<0.02−7.65), 0.15 (<0.0012−3.85) ng/g wet weight,...

The present study provides information on the time trend of PBDEs in three sediment cores from Pearl River Estuary (PRE), South China, using 210Pb dating technique. ΣPBDEs (except for BDE 209) concentrations all increased gradually bottom (mid-1970s) to middle layer (later 1980s and early 1990s) followed by different temporal trends locations surface sediments, reflecting variations consumption commercial penta-BDEs mixture regions Delta. 209 remained constant until 1990 thereafter...

The effects of the chemical structure, surface properties, and micropore modified black carbon samples (BCs) on sorption mechanism hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) are discussed. Activated oxidized BCs were produced from a shale kerogen at 250-500 °C by activation regents (KOH ZnCl2) then oxidative (H2O2 NaClO). properties (water contact angel, Boehm titration, cation exchange capacity, CEC), structural (advanced solid-state 13C NMR), (CO2 adsorption), mesopore (N2 desorption...
