Studies have shown that materials, such us polytetra-fluoroethylene (PTFE), rigid polyvinyl chloride (rigid PVC). flexible polyvinyl chloride (flexible PVC), stainless steel (SS). low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), have the potential to influence certain analyte concentrations in ground water samples. The effects of HDPE, LDPE, PTFE, rigid PVC, and SS on aqueous concentrations of nitrate-N, atrazine, deethylatrazine (DEA), and deisopropylatrazine (DIA) were evaluated in a field study A laboratory study was conducted to evaluate sorption of atrazine DEA, DIA, cyanazine, alachlor, metolachlor, and butachlor to PTFE, HDPE, and SS materials. Butachlor is rarely use in the United States, but was included because of its expected high sorptivity. No significant differences between HDPE, LDPE, PTFE, rigid PVC, and SS were determined for any of the analytes tested in the field study. In the laboratory study, sorption of DIA to PTFE and SS was significant at 2.6 × 10−5 and 4.1 × 10−5 μg/m2 respectively. Sorption of DIAA to HDPE was not significantly > 0 sorption of all other compounds to HDPE, PTFE, and SS were also not significantly >0. Results of the two studies indicate that for these analytes (relatively polar or ionized compounds), representative ground water samples are not dependent on the materials used for multilevel sampler construction. When considering these compounds, it appears that the least expensive materials (HDPE, rigid PVC, and LDPE) are good choices for the construction of ground water monitoring wells. 相似文献

Four well casing materials — polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and stainless steel 304 (SS 304) and 316 (SS 316) — were examined to determine their suitability for monitoring inorganic and organic constituents in well water.
The inorganic study used a factorial design to test the effect of concentration of mixed metals (arsenic [As], chromium [Cr], lead [Pb], and cadmium [Cd]), pH, and organic carbon. Sample times were 0.5, 4, 8, 24, and 72 hours. Except for slow loss of Pb, PTFE well casings had no significant effect on the concentration of metals in solution. For the other casings, changes in analyte concentration often exceeded 10 percent in eight hours or less and, thus, could bias analyses of samples taken from wells constructed with these materials. Specifically, PVC casings sorbed Pb and leached Cd; SS 316 casings sorbed As and Pb and leached Cd; and SS 304 casings sorbed As, Cr, and Pb and leached Cd. Both stainless steel casing materials showed markedly poorer performance than the PVC casings.
The well casings were also tested for sorption/desorption of 10 organic substances from the following classes: chlorinated alkehes, chlorinated aromatics, nitroaromatics and nitramines. Sample times were 0, 1, 8, 24, and 72 hours, seven days, and six weeks. There were no detectable losses of analytes in any of the sample solutions containing stainless steel well casings. Significant loss of some analytes was observed in sample solutions containing plastic casings, although losses were always more rapid with the PTFE casings than with PVC. Chlorinated organic substances were lost most rapidly. For samples containing PTFE casings, losses of some of these compounds were rapid enough (>10 percent in eight hours) to be of concern for ground water monitoring. Losses of hydrophobic organic constituents in samples containing PTFE casings were correlated with the compound's octanol/water partition coefficient. 相似文献

In these studies, the efficiency of various decontamination protocols was tested on small pieces of materials commonly used in ground water sampling devices. Three materials, which ranged in ability to sorb organic solutes, were tested: stainless steel (SS), rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The test pieces were exposed to two aqueous test solutions: One contained three volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and one nitroaromatic compound, and the other contained four pesticides. Also, three types of polymeric tubing were exposed to pesticide solutions. Generally, the contact times were 10 minutes and 24 hours for sorption and desorption.
The contaminants were removed from the nonpermeable SS and the less-sorptive rigid PVC test pieces simply by washing with a hot detergent solution and rinsing with hot water. Additional treatment was required for the PTFE test pieces exposed to the VOCs and for the low-density polyethylene (LDPE) tubing exposed to the pesticide test solution. Solvent rinsing did not improve removal of the three VOCs from the PTFE and only marginally improved removal of the residual pesticides from the LDPE. However, a hot water and detergent wash and rinse followed by oven drying at approximately 105°C was effective for removing the VOCs from the PTFE and substantially reduced pesticide contamination from the LDPE. 相似文献

This report examines sorption of low ppb levels of organic solutions by polytetra- fluoroethylene (PTFE), rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and stainless steel 304 and 316 well casings. Nineteen organics were selected, including several munitions and chlorinated solvents. Compounds were selected to offer a range of physical properties, such as solubility in water, octanol/water partition coefficient, and molecular structure. When these results were compared with the results from a similar study conducted at ppm levels, the rate and extent of sorption by PTFE and PVC were the same as seen previously for almost all analytes. There were no losses of any compounds associated with stainless steel. At these low levels (ppm and ppb), the rate of diffusion within the polymer (PVC and PTFE) is independent of concentration. Only with PTFE are the rates rapid enough to be of concern when monitoring for some contaminants in ground water. Tetrachloroethylene was the compound PTFE sorbed the most rapidly. The study showed that PVC well casings are suitable for monitoring low levels (ppm and ppb) of organics. 相似文献

This series of experiments was initiated to determine the overall suitability of three alternative polymeric well casing materials (fluorinated ethylene propylene [FEP], fiberglass-reinforced epoxy [FRE], and fiberglass-reinforced plastic [FRP]) for use in ground water monitoring wells and to compare these materials with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) well casings. This paper focuses on sorption and leaching of metals.
Generally, the fiberglass materials leached more metal contaminants than PVC, FEP, and PTFE. However, with one exception (Pb leaching from FRP), leached concentrations were below maximum allowable limits set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for drinking water. With respect to sorption, none of the polymers sorbed the anions tested, but all of them sorbed one or more of the cations tested. FEP and PTFE were much less sorptive than the other materials. 相似文献

Previous research has shown that the most commonly used well casing materials-stainless steel. polyvinyl chloride (PVC). and polytetra-fluoroethylene (PTFE)-are not suited for all monitoring environments and applications. This study is part of a series of experiments that were conducted to determine the suitability of four other polymeric well casing materials-acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), fluorinalcd ethylene propylene (FHP), fiberglass-reinlorced epoxy (FRE), and fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP)- for use in ground water monitoring wells. In these studies, these four materials were compared with two other commonly used polymeric well casings, PVC and PTFE. Part I of these studies examines the resistance of these materials to degradation by chemicals. Future reports will consider sorption and leaching of organic and metal contaminants.
In this study, the six materials were exposed to 28 neat organic compounds (including one acid) and to extremely acidic and alkaline aqueous solutions for up to 112 days. This was done to simulate the most aggressive environments to which monitoring well casings may be exposed. The casings were observed for changes in weight and signs of physical degradation (swelling, softening, deterioration, or dissolution).
The two fluorinated polymers (FEP and PTFE) were not degraded by any of the lest chemicals. Among the nonfluorinated products tested. FRE was the most inert. Three organic chemicals caused the glass fibers to separate. and two organic solvents caused weight gains exceeding 10 percent. ABS was the most readily degraded material tested. By the end of the study, only the acid and alkaline solutions had little effect on ABS. FRP was more severely degraded by the organic chemicals than FRH but was less affected than PVC. FRP and FRE. lost weight when exposed to the highly acidic conditions. 相似文献

Laboratory experiments were conducted to measure the extent to which trace concentrations of radioactive materials would sorb on well construction materials and to assess the rapidity with which sorption would occur. The radionuclides employed in these studies were tritium, Cs-137, and Co-57, Solutions with trace concentrations of these radionuclides were contracted with casings of PVC, fiberglass-epoxy, stainless steel, carbon steel, and steel rods coated wtih expoy. The PVC showed no interaction with the tritium or Cs-137 during contact times of two hours to these weeks; however, it did sorb Co-57. The fiberglass-epoxy also interacted only with the cobalt. The stainless steel sorbed cesium and cobalt. The carbon steel (or the ferric hydroxide forming on its surface) also sorbed both cesium and cobalt. The epoxy-coated steel rods did not interact measurably with day of the radio-nuclides so long as the coating was intact. The sorption reactions generally were apparent after a few days of contact: in the case of carbon steel, they were detectable in a few hours. 相似文献

Until recently, there was little information available on the water collection capabilities of pore water samplers. This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of ceramic, fritted-glass, stainless steel, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) porous samplers in sand and silt loam soil columns over a range of soil water potentials. Soil solution intake for samplers was determined by application of constant and falling vacuums. Constant vacuum was applied for a three-day period when soils were at field moisture capacity. The PTFE samplers did not function when tested with a constant or falling vacuum. With a 50-kPa constant vacuum, the ceramic sampler collected the greatest sample volume (average 20 mL) from the sand. With a constant 25-kPa vacuum, the stainless steel sampler collected the greatest sample volume (average 81 mL) from the silt loam soil. Sampler performance with a fixed volume of vacuum was evaluated by applying 100 kPa vacuum to a 1-liter reservoir. With this falling vacuum, samplers were tested until no further solution was collected over a 10-day test period. With a falling vacuum, fritted-glass and stainless steel samplers, with relatively larger pores and greater hydraulic conductance, collected a greater volume of sample and at a faster rate than ceramic samplers in sand soil that was nearly saturated. When the volume was normalized with respect to sampler surface area, for the falling vacuum tests in silt loam soil at field moisture capacity, the volume collected by fritted glass was significantly higher than those from other samplers. In sand at field moisture capacity or silt loam at soil water tensions ≧30 kPa, ceramic samplers maintained vacuums near 70 kPa and collected more sample than the other samplers during the 10-day test period. 相似文献

Comparison of Stainless Steel vs. PTFE Miniwells for Monitoring Halogenated Organic Solute Transport
Gino C. Bianchi-Mosquera Douglas M. Mackay 《Ground Water Monitoring & Remediation》1992,12(4):126-131
Field tests of organic solute transport behavior have often been monitored using small-diameter wells (miniwells). To determine if experimental results could be significantly biased by sorption to, desorption from, or diffusion through sampling lines, dissolved concentrations of tetrachloroethene and carbon tetrachloride were measured in ground water samples collected simultaneously from the same spatial location during a forced-gradient test in the Borden aquifer using polytetrafluoroethene (PTFE) and stainless steel miniwells (1/8-inch O.D.).
A semiautomated organic analytical system was used on-site to obtain real-time results, which avoided sample holding problems and permitted optimizing sampling times. The breakthrough curves (plots of concentration vs. time) for both organic compounds indicate that under the conditions of this experiment (low organic solute concentrations, short exposure time of sampling lines to the plume, adequate flushing of sampling lines) there is no significant difference between concentration histories (breakthrough curves) collected using a polytetrafluoroethene sampling line and those collected using a stainless steel sampling line. This suggests that organic solute tailing seen in this and also in a similar transport experiment previously conducted at the site is the result of transport processes in the aquifer rather than an artifact introduced by the PTFE miniwells. 相似文献

This paper contains the results of a laboratory study that was designed to compare sorption of low (mg/L) concentrations of 11 organic solutes by six polymeric materials (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene [ABS], fluorinated ethylene propylene [FEP], fiberglass-reinforced epoxy [FRE] and fiberglass-reinforced plastic [FRP], polyvinyl chloride [PVC], and poly-tetrafluoroethylene [PTFE]).
During this six-week study, ABS sorbed analytes much more rapidly and to a greater extent than did the other materials, and PVC and FRE sorbed analytes more slowly and to a lesser extent than the other materials tested.
As the study progressed, an increasing number of spurious peaks were found in the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) chromatograms of some of our samples, indicating that leaching of some consituents had occurred. By the end of the study, there were 11 additional peaks in the ABS samples, five in the FRP samples, and one in the FRE samples. Analysis by purge and trap gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) of those samples and of well water samples that were exposed to the casings for 500 hours revealed the identity of some of the leached constituents; acrylonitrile and styrene (components of ABS), chloroform and ethylbenzene (an intermediate in the production of styrene) from the ABS pipe, and toluene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, and ethylbenzene from the FRP casing. 相似文献

A number of samples of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) well casings used for ground water monitoring that varied in schedule, diameter or manufacturer were placed in contact with low concentrations of aqueous solutions of TNT, RDX, HMX and 2,4-DNT for 80 days. Analysis indicated that there was more loss of TNT and HMX with the PVC casing than with the glass controls, but that the amount lost was, for the most part, equivalent among different types. A second experiment was performed to determine if these losses were due to sorption or if biodegradation was involved. Several different ground water conditions were simulated by varying salinity, initial pH and dissolved oxygen content. The only case where there was an in-creased loss of any substance due to the presence of PVC casing was with the TNT solution under non-sterile conditions. The extent of loss was small, however, considering the length of the equilibration period. This increased loss is thought to be associated with increased microbial degradation rather than sorption. Several samples of PVC casing were also leached with ground water for 80 days. No detectable interferences were found by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Therefore, it is concluded that PVC well casings are suitable for monitoring ground water for the presence of these munitions. 相似文献

Four state-of-the-art ground water sampling systems were analyzed to determine their reliability in providing representative samples of the volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), and 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA) from a simulated monitoring well. The sampling systems studied represent four commonly used devices, including a stainless steel and Teflon® piston pump, a Teflon bailer, a Teflon bladder pump, and a PVC air-lift pump.
Controlled laboratory sampling experiments were conducted in a tank and well test chamber designed to approximate field conditions. A well purging and sampling procedure was used in the test apparatus to determine the accuracy and precision of each device for detecting low concentrations of the compounds in ground water. The compounds selected are some of the most ubiquitous hazardous contaminants found in shallow aquifers near hazardous waste sites throughout the United States.
No significant statistical difference was found among the four sampling systems in detecting the compounds. 相似文献

Experiments simulating the dynamics of compliance sampling via a monitoring well were performed to assess the effects of common well screen materials (rigid polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene, stainless steel 304. and stainless steel 316) on several metals and tri- chloroethylene (TCE) in ground water. This was achieved by using a continuous flow-through chamber system capable of exposing monitoring well screens to ground water for periods ranging from 0.25 to 8 hours. The findings of this study are more representative than static laboratory experiments for assessing the potential effects well casing materials have on ground water samples. Under dynamic flow conditions stainless steel 304 and 316 screens were found to influence solution concentrations of Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, and Fe, while ground water TCE concentrations were not affected by any of the materials tested. 相似文献

Fish mortality in the middle reaches of the Pilcomayo River (Bolivia), locally called ‘borrachera’, can be observed almost every year at the onset of the rainy season. In order to study the potential causes of the ‘borrachera’, suspended sediment (SS) and selected water quality parameters have been monitored from mid‐September until mid‐December 2010. Gill samples were taken and analysed, before and during the ‘borrachera’ event on December 7th 2010. Data on river discharge were obtained from a database. During the sampling period, the river hydrology changed dramatically. At the day of the ‘borrachera’, heavy rains in upstream reaches of the river catchment changed the river from a quiet stream into a turbulent river with extremely high concentrations of SS (> 100 g l?1). This may be caused by the inundation of the entire riverbed, which causes easily erodible material, left on the riverbanks at the end of the former rainy season, to be transported by the river during the first peak discharges. As concentrations of heavy metals in filtered water samples did not show higher values during the ‘borrachera’, it is concluded that the ‘borrachera’ is unlikely to be caused by heavy metal toxicity. Results showed a strong association between the SS concentration and the ‘borrachera’. Gills of fish collected during the ‘borrachera’ were clogged with sediment to such an extent that oxygen uptake became virtually impossible. High SS concentrations are therefore considered to be the cause of this typical fish mortality phenomenon. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The dynamics of metal concentrations in the solution, suspension, sediments, and floating plants, as well as functional and structural parameters of phytoplankton and zooplankton were studied. The sorption rate of metals on suspension and the efficiency of their removal into bottom sediments decreased in the series Pb > Cu > Zn > Cd and at increasing proportion of metal aquaions in the solution. The effect of intensive renascence of green algae was recorded from the eighth to tenth day after the metal discharge into the mesocosms. This effect activated a plankton mechanism of metal removal into bottom sediments. The metal discharge led to a strong and stable depression in all groups of zooplankton. 相似文献

Experimental study on phosphorus release from sediments of shallow lake in wave flume 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：2
Influence of wave on sediment resuspension and nutrients release from sediments, collected from Lake Taihu and Lake Chaohu, was studied in flume experiments. Under strong-wave conditions, concentrations of suspended solids (SS), total phosphorus (TP) and dissolved total phosphorus (DTP) in overlying water were increased significantly following the sediments re-suspension. During the experiments on sediments of Lake Taihu and Lake Chaohu, TP concentrations increased 6 times and 3 times, and DTP concentration increased 100% and 70% more than it in presuspension, respectively. Concentration of soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) of experiment on sediment of Lake Taihu increased 25%. During the massive sediment suspension, the dissolved phosphorus in pore water and much of the phosphorus adsorbed by the sediment particles were released into overlying water. The phenomena in this wave flume experiment are quite similar to the situation observed in situ of Lake Taihu. The critical wave stresses of sediment re-suspension are nearly equal. The change of concentrations of SS, TP, and SRP was the same as that in situ situation. This study showed that concentrations of TP and SRP in lake water could be increased significantly by wave disturbance. Phosphorus release was significantly enhanced by wave disturbance at the beginning of massive sediment re-suspension, but decreased later. 相似文献

Comprehensive assessment of heavy metal contamination in sediment of the Pearl River Estuary and adjacent shelf 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Total metal concentrations (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb), acid volatile sulfide and simultaneously extracted metals (AVS-SEM), and heavy metal fractionation were used to assess the heavy metals contamination status and ecological risk in the sediments of the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) and adjacent shelf. Elevated concentrations at estuarine sites and lower concentrations at adjacent shelf sites are observed, especially for Cu and Zn. Within the PRE, the concentration of heavy metals in the western shore was mostly higher than that in the middle shore. The metals from anthropogenic sources mainly occur in the labile fraction and may be taken up by organisms as the environmental parameters change. A combination of total metal concentrations, metal contamination index and sequential extraction analysis is necessary to get the comprehensive information on the baseline, anthropogenic discharge and bioavailability of heavy metals. 相似文献

A field experiment was conducted to examine the effect of short-term (one minute) contact of pesticide-laden water with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bailer on quantitative laboratory measurements of seven pesticide concentrations in distilled water samples subsequently decanted from the bailer. Pesticides were tested at two initial concentrations (low. based on current FPA maximum contaminant levels, or MCL: and high, based on a multiple of approximately lour times the MCL). Pesticide species included bromoxynil, diclofop-m, dimethoate. MCPA, methyl parathion, propiconazole, and trifluralin. Dimethoate recoveries were poor for all treatments. For all other pesticides there was no systematic difference between pesticide concentrations measured before and after bailer contact. Effectiveness of bailer decontamination treatments consisting of distilled water rinse alone was related to water solubility (S) for each species. Distilled water samples decanted from a rigid PVC bailer following initial bailer contact with pesticide-spiked water, and after the bailer had been cleaned with a single distilled water rinse, had measured pesticide concentrations of less than 2 percent of the pesticide concentration in the initial pesticide-spiked water, regardless of S. A single distilled water rinse effectively removed all trace of contaminants having S> 500 mg/L. Multiple distilled water rinses, and multiple distilled water rinses followed by 15 bailings of a well, effectively removed all trace of contaminants having S> 50 mg/L. Below threshold S, cleaning effectiveness decreased as a power function of S. 相似文献
