Binding of nonpolar pollutants to dissolved organic carbon. Environmental fate modeling
01 Jan 1989
Abstract
Nonpolar compounds associate with organic carbon in the environment. The interaction between pollutants and dissolved organic carbon in natural waters is not as well defined as that between pollutants and sedimentary organic matter. The limitations of experimental techniques and extraction and concentration procedures are partially responsible for the incomplete description of pollutant-DOC (dissolved organic carbon) interactions. Despite the lack of complete understanding of the phenomenon, the association of nonpolar compounds with natural DOC can exert a significant influence on their environmental partitioning.
