  • In this study, Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) with GC/FID was studied as a possible alternative to liquid-liquid extraction for the analysis of chlorinated solvents (PCE and TCE) and these by-products (cis-DCE, VC, and Ethylene). Experimental parameters affecting the SPME process (such as kind of fibers, adsorption time, desorption time, volume ratio of sample to headspace, salt addition, and magnetic stirring) were optimized. Experimental parameters such as CAR/PDMS, adsorption time of 20 min, desorption time of 5 min at $250^{\circ}C$, headspace volume of 50mL, sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration of 25% combined with magnetic stirring were selected in optimal experimental conditions for analysis of chlorinated solvents and these by-products. The general affinity of analytes to CAR/PDMS fiber was high in the order PCE>TCE>cis-DCE>VC>Ethylene. The linearity of $R^2$ for chlorinated solvents and these by-products was from 0.912 to 0.999 when analyte concentrations range from $10{\mu}g/L$ to $500{\mu}g/L$, respectively. The relative standard deviation (% RSD) were from 2.1% to 3.6% for concentration of $500{\mu}g/L$ (n=5), respectively. Finally, the limited of detection (LOD) observed in our study for chlorinated solvents and these by-products were from $0.5{\mu}g/L$ to $10{\mu}g/L$, respectively.

  • The phase behavior of chlorinated hydrocarbon/mixed surfactants/water microemulsion systems were investigated for dry cleaning solvent properties. With appropriate surfactant mixtures, Winsor type I-III-II microemulsions were generated which is the same as hydrocarbon systems. For perchloroethylene(PCE) with mixed Tween systems, the optimum salinity(S*) decreases and the optimum solubilization parameter(o*) increases with decreas- ing HLB. For PCE with mixed Aerosol MA and ethoxylated alcohol systems, S* and o* both increase with increasing ethylene oxide moles. For dichlorobenzene(DCB) with mixed Aerosol MA and ethoxylated or propoxylated sulfate systems, S* and o* both increase with increasing ethylene oxide moles or propylene oxide moles.

  • The combined effect of bioaugmentation of dechlorinating bacterial cultures and addition of iron powder (Fe$^{0}$ ) on reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and other chlorinated ethylenes in a artificially contaminated soil slurry (60$\mu$mo1es PCE/kg soil) were tested. Two different anaerobic bacterial cultures, a pure bacterial culture of Desulfitobacterium sp. strain Y-51 capable of dechlorinating PCE to cis-1, 2-dechloroethylene (cis-DCE) and the other enrichment culture PE-1 capable of dechlorinating PCE completely to ethylene, were used for the bioaugmentation test. Both treatments introduced with the strain Y-51 and PE-1 culture (3mg dry cell weight/kg soil) showed conversion of PCE to cis-DCE within 40 days. The treatments added with Fe$^{0}$ (0.1 -1.0 %(w/w)) alone to the soil slurry resulted in extended PCE dechlorination to ethylene and ethane and the, dechlorination rate depended on the amount of Fe$^{0}$ added. The combined use of the bacterial cultures with Fe$^{0}$ (0.1-1.0%) showed the higher PCE dechlorination rate than the separated application and the pattern of PCE dechlorination and end-product formation was different from those of the separated application. These results suggested that the combined application of Fe$^{0}$ and the bactrial culture, specially the complete dechlorinating enrichment culture such as PE-1 culture, would be practically effective for remediation of PCE contaminated soil.

  • Sing]e-well-push-pull tests were developed for use in assessing the feasibility of in-situ aerobic cometabolism of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs). The series includes Transport tests, Biostimulation tests, and Activity tests. Transport tests are conducted to evaluate the mobility of solutes used in subsequent tests. These included bromide or chloride (conservative tracers), propane (growth substrate), ethylene, propylene (CAH surrogates), dissolved oxygen (electron acceptor) and nitrate (a minor nutrient). Tests were conducted at an experimental well field of Oregon State University. At this site, extraction phase breakthrough curves for all solutes were similar, indicating apparent conservative transport of the dissolved gases and nitrate prior to biostimulation. Biostimulation tests were conducted to stimulate propane-utilizing activity of indigenous microorganisms and consisted of sequential injections of site groundwater containing dissolved propane and oxygen. Biostimulation was detected by the increase in rates of propane and oxygen utilization after each injection. Activity tests were conducted to quantify rates of substrate utilization and to confirm that CAH-transforming activity had been stimulated. In particular, the transformation of injected CAH surrogates ethylene and propylene to the cometabolic byproducts ethylene oxide and propylene oxide provided evidence that activity of the monooxygenase enzyme system, responsible for aerobic cometabolic transformations of CAHs had been stimulated. Estimated zero-order transformation rates decreased in the order propane > ethylene > propylene. The series of push-pu3l tests developed and field tested in this study should prove useful for conducting rapid, low-cost feasibility assessments for in situ aerobic cometabolism of CAHs.

  • Chlorinated ethylenes such as perchloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE) are widely used as industrial solvents and degreasing agents. Because of improper handling, these highly toxic chlorinated ethylenes have been often detected from contaminated soils and groundwater. Biological PCE dechlorination activities were tested in bacterial cultures inoculated with 10 different environmental samples from sediments, sludges, soils, and groundwater. Of these, the sediment using culture (SE 2) was selected and used for establishing an efficient PCE dechlorinating enrichment culture since it showed the highest activity of dechlorination. The cathode chamber of bioelectrochemical system (BES) was inoculated with the enrichment culture and the system with a cathode polarized at -500 mV (Vs Ag/AgCl) was operated under fed-batch mode. PCE was dechlorinated to ethylene via TCE, cis-dichloroethylene, and vinyl chloride. Microbial community analysis with polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) showed that the microbial community in the enrichment culture was significantly changed during the bio-electrochemical PCE dechlorination in the BES. The communities of suspended-growth bacteria and attached-growth bacteria on the cathode surface are also quite different from each other, indicating that there were some differences in their mechanisms receiving electrons from electrode for PCE dechlorination. Further detailed research to investigate electron transfer mechanism would make the bioelctrochemical dechlorination technique greatly useful for bioremediation of soil and groundwater contaminated with chlorinated ethylenes.

  • Poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) filaments were treated in binary mixtures of organic solvents such as benzyl alcohol/perchloroethylene(BA/PER), benzyl alcohol/trichloroethylene(BA/TRI), benzyl alcohol/ethylene chloride(BA/EC), methanol/perchloroethylene (ME/PER), and methanol/trichloroethylene(ME/TRI). From the equilibrium swelling of PET, total and partial isotherms of PET for sorption of solvent mixtures and isotherms for distribution of the components between the phases were taken. Also the shrinkage and the crystallinity of PET treated with binary mixtures were investigated. The results obtained were summerized as follows: 1. All isotherms for distribution of the components between the phase deviated from the diagonal in system of PET-binary mixtures. Especially in the binary mixtures of ME/PER or ME/TRI, selectivo sorption of chlorinated hydrocarbon PER and TRI by PET occured. 2. The shrinkage of PET treated in binary mixrures was increased to compare with single solvent-treated, but the composition of binary mixtures corresponding to maximum values of shrinkage was not always agreed with the composition of binary mixtures corresponding to maximum values of shrinkage was not always agreed with the composition of binary mixtures exhibiting of the maximum swelling of PET. 3. The crystallinity of PET treated in binary mixtures generally increased than that of single solvent-treated.

  • Groundwater, contaminated predominantly with aromatic compounds and chlorinated ethylene, could be biologically treated in a fluidized-bed reactor with immobilized cells. The decomposition efficiency for the aromatics was over 90% at the retention time of 2.5 h. The chlorinated ethylenes, especially trichloroethylene (TCE) and cis-dichloroethylene (DCE), could be decomposed only insufficiently. No anaerobic methane formation was observed for this groundwater even at a very low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration of 0.75 mg/L. The variation of DO concentration resulted in an optimal value of 1.5 mg/L. The recycle of air waste could increase the utilization of oxygen. The amount of low boiling pollutants stripped out remained constant with the recycle, while for the higher boiling pollutants the stripping slightly increased. Using air instead of oxygen increases the flow rate of air waste, which is connected to a higher stripping of pollutants. In this investigation, the pollutant concentration in the air waste remained constant. The stripping of main pollutants did not exceed 0.3 %.

  • The surface of wiper blade(W/B) rubber was chlorinated by chemical treatment method using the hydrochloric acid(HCI) and sodium hypochlorite(NaOCl). From the results of contact angle measurement, friction coefficient measurement, and ATR-IR spectra, the surface characteristics of chlorinated W/B rubber with time of chlorination were studied. Contact angles for W/B rubber with increasing time of chlorination and chlorine concentration were measured for the water and ethylene glycol. From the results, contact angle fell rapidly with increasing time of chlorination and chlorine concentration, reaching a constant value after about 10min. And the wettability of W/B rubber surface by means of chlorination has been improved. For an unchlorinated W/B rubber, the friction coefficient with time of chlorination decreased from 1.27 to 0.20~0.23 on full chlorination. As the results it was considered that abrasion resistance of W/B rubber surface has been also improved. The values of pH and $Cl^-$ ion concentration in a chlorine treatment solution decreased as the extent of chlorination of W/B rubber surface increased. From the results of ATR-IR spectra, it was observed that C=C double band of W/B rubber surface transformed into C-Cl band, but quantitative determination of the extent of chlorination was not feasible because of the complexity of chlorination reactions.

  • This study was to evaluate sorption and biodegradation rate affecting the natural dissipation of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) in surface soil. To show the effect of sorption and biodegradation on the natural dissipation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE), three types of vial experiments were employed; (1) sterilized, (2) non-sterilized, (3) non-sterilized/substrate enriched. Also three moisture contents was applied to find the moisture effect in each vial; (1) wilting point (12%, w/w), (2) field capacity (29%, w/w), (3) saturation (48%, w/w). The results suggested that keeping the soil moisture content at field capacity was desirable for TCA and TCE natural dissipation in the vial study.
