The addition of biochar could reduce the bioavailability and mobility of atrazine in soil through adsorption-desorption processes. In this study, tall fescue biochar was prepared at 500 °C, and its effect on the adsorption-desorption behavior of atrazine in red soil, brown soil, and black soil was investigated.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/AZD2281(Olaparib).html  The tall fescue biochar with the pH value of 9.64 had a developed porous structure and large specific area that contained abundant surface functional groups. The element composition of the tall fescue biochar was C (50.46%), O (15.01%), N (4.54%), H (2.56%), and S (1.47%). The adsorption process of atrazine in the three soil types with and without biochar addition was divided into a fast stage, slow stage, and equilibrium stage. A pseudo second-order kinetic model was suitable for fitting the adsorption process of atrazine, and the determination coefficient (R2) ranged from 0.985 to 0.999. The adsorption-desorption processes of atrazine were described accurately by the Freundlich model (R2 of 0.967-0.999). The adsorption capacity of the three soil types for atrazine increased significantly with the addition of biochar, whereby the equilibrium adsorption amount increased from an initial range of 3.968 to 5.902 μg g-1 to a final range of 21.397 to 21.968 μg g-1. The desorption of atrazine was also inhibited as the hysteresis coefficient (HI) increased from an initial range of 0.451 to 0.586 to a final range of 0.916 to 0.941. The adsorption capacity of the red soil improved more than did the brown soil or black soil. Moreover, spontaneous adsorption of atrazine by the biochar-soil system occurred more easily at 35 °C than at 15 °C and 25 °C. Overall, tall fescue biochar was a prospective soil amendment material.Water pollution from surface runoff is an important non-point pollution source, which has been a great threat to our environment. The model proposed by Gao et al. (2004) is of great significance to solve the non-point source pollution problem, which is a numerical advection-diffusion equation (ADE) model for chemical transport from soil to surface runoff. The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF), the data assimilation (DA) method, is easy to be implemented and widely used in hydrology field. In this study, we use the EnKF method to update model state variables such as chemical concentrations in surface runoff and calibrate model parameters such as water transfer rate in Gao et al. (2004) under different study cases, while other model parameters are assumed to be known. The observations are generated from the simulation results based on synthetic real parameters. The objective of this study was to extend the application of the EnKF to the ADE-based prediction model of chemical transport from soil to surface runoff. The parameter for the ADE-based prediction model of chemical transport from soil to surface runoff.Groundwater arsenic contamination represents a global threat to human health. Among the proposed bioremediation applications, microbial transformation of arsenite (As (III)) seems to be the most favorable approach as it can be easily coupled with several adsorption techniques, without producing lethal by-products or demanding chemical addition. This study highlights the potential contribution of a highly efficient As (III) transforming bacteria Delftia sp. BAs29 followed by the adsorption of transformed arsenate (As (V)) using neutralized red mud under suitable treatment conditions. Diverse experimental conditions elucidated (inflow As (III) concentrations, flow rate) the rate and oxidation efficiency to mediate the process. Red mud is a waste by-product from the Bayer's process of the alumina industry, which when neutralized aids the removal of As (V). The neutralized red mud was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) microanalysis, Scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Arsenate adsorption using neutralized red mud was also studied as a function of pH and time, adsorbent dosage, and initial As (V) concentration. The adsorption process was significantly affected by the solution pH, which on decreasing gradually increased the adsorption efficiency. The maximum monolayer capacity for adsorption of 274.1 mg/g As (V) was found at optimum conditions of pH 4.0 and a contact time of 30 min at a temperature of 30 °C, respectively. Furthermore, this process significantly contributed in fabricating a two-step bio-filter column for the removal of total arsenic from groundwater. Graphical abstract.Herein, field experiment trials were conducted at two different sites (Heilongjiang and Hubei Province) in China to determine the residual levels and dissipation kinetics of metalaxyl-M in rice grains, and paddy soil and water. A modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe "QuEChES" method coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed for determination of metalaxyl-M residual levels in different matrices. The method showed an excellent linear response (R2 > 0.99) over the concentration range of 0.01-0.50 mg kg-1 with satisfactory recovery rates in between 76.00 and 111.36%. The limits of quantification (LOQ) were estimated to be 0.010 mg kg-1 for all matrices. Half-lives of 0.27 to 10.83 days in rice plant, paddy soil, and water indicate that the analyte is easily degraded in the environment within a relatively short time. The terminal residues of metalaxyl-M in rice husks and rice grains were less than 0.05 mg kg-1. Dietary risk assessment showed that harvested rice treated with metalaxyl-M would not pose unreasonable risk to humans or the environment.
