Hysteretic Desorption of Perfluorooctane Sulphonates within Sediment Components under Aerobic and Anoxic Conditions

I. A. Ololade · International Research Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry · 2014

The fate of organic contaminants in sediment can be better accurately predicted through knowledge of desorption. Complex formation between perflurooctane sulphonates (PFOS) and active sites on sediment components, especially, the level of organic matter plays significant role in...

Sorption and Infiltration Potential of a Cationic Herbicide (Paraquat) in Three Cocoa Growing Soils in Nigeria

Paul E. Aikpokpodion, S. M. Omotoso & I. A. Ololade · Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology · 2014

Despite the ban of paraquat, its use among Nigerian farmers for weed control is still popular. Larger proportion of applied herbicide ends up in the soil matrix. Off-site transfer of the residual paraquat as contaminant to other environmental compartment depends on sorption proce...
