Behaviour of DDT under laboratory and outdoor conditions in Germany

Abstract

Experiments were conducted on adsorption, volatilization and UV‐degradation of p,p'‐DDT on soil surface, and leaching and degradation in sand columns. p,p'‐DDT was shown to adsorb stronger to soils with higher organic content. UV irradiation at 290 nm for 10 hours mineralized less than 0.1% of DDT in soil.

Results show that only 0.1% of DDT volatilized in a sun‐exposed semi‐closed quartz system. Polar compounds accounted from 1.4% after 55 days. The rate of volatilization and degradation in an open system was much higher; only 15% DDT and 7% DDE were recovered after 6 weeks in the organic extract. p,p'‐DDT was adsorbed to a great extent on the top layers of sand columns; 86% in the top 8 cm.     

Effect of carbon dioxide concentration on biomass production and partitioning in Betula pubescens Ehrh. seedlings at different ozone and temperature regimes

Seedlings of Betula pubescens were grown at two CO(2) concentrations, in combination with either two O(3) concentrations or two air temperatures, during 34-35 days at 24 h day(-1) photoperiod in growth chambers placed in a greenhouse. Increasing the CO(2) concentration from 350 to 560 micromol mol(-1) at 17 degrees C air temperature increased the dry weight of the main leaves, main stem, branches and root. The mean relative growth rate (RGR) was increased 10% by CO(2) enrichment, while increasing the O(3) concentration from 7 to 62 nmol mol(-1) decreased the RGR by 9%. The relative biomass distribution between the different plant components was not significantly affected by the CO(2) concentration irrespective of the O(3) concentration. No significant interactions between CO(2) and O(3) concentration were found except on leaf size, which was stimulated more by elevated CO(2) concentration at high, compared to low, O(3) levels. In another experiment, elevated CO(2) (700 micromol mol(-1)) significantly increased the dry weight of the different plant components, and more at 20 degrees C than at 15 degrees C. Raising the CO(2) concentration increased the RGR by 5 and 10% at 15 and 20 degrees C, respectively. CO(2) enrichment increased the branch dry weight relatively more than the dry weight of the other plant parts. Increasing the CO(2) concentration or temperature increased the plant height and stem diameter, however, no interactions between CO(2) and temperature were found.     

The effect of different ventilation modes on in-vehicle carbon monoxide exposure

In-vehicle carbon monoxide (CO) concentration profiles were monitored in a passenger vehicle driven along a heavily traveled route of a commercial/residential area of Beirut, Lebanon, under several ventilation modes. Trips were conducted during morning rush hours in spring and summer time. Concomitant monitoring of car-exterior CO level, ambient CO level and wind speed was also undertaken. The highest mean CO exposure was experienced for the “windows closed, vents closed” and “windows closed, AC on recirculation” ventilation settings, with mean CO levels of 37.4 and 30.8 ppm, respectively, exceeding the 1-h air quality guidelines. The exposure was less significant for other ventilation modes with respective mean values of $10.8–19\mathrm{ppm}$. Mean car-exterior CO levels were lower than the 1-h air quality guidelines, but exceeded the 8-h CO exposure guidelines. Ambient CO levels were low and non-representative of the personal exposure of individuals neither inside nor in the vicinity of road vehicles. In-vehicle CO levels revealed moderate to good correlations to out-vehicle CO levels for ventilation modes allowing for outdoor air intake, and no correlation to ambient CO levels and wind speed. Infiltration as a result of indoor–outdoor air exchange and intrusion from engine combustion/exhaust infiltration constituted the main sources of observed in-vehicle CO levels.     

Propane Removal from Propane-Air Mixtures by Soil Beds

Dilute concentrations of hydrocarbons are difficult and expensive to remove from air by conventional scrubbing methods. Propane removal from propane-air mixtures by soil beds was measured in laboratory experiments and in an industrial application. In closed containers in the laboratory, the time to reduce the initial 1–3 percent propane concentrations by half was 5 to 20 hours for soils at pH 6–8, moderate moisture contents, and temperatures ≥15°C. The propane removal rate was slower when the soil was air dry at 2°C temperature, or was pH 5.3. A test soil bed continuously removed 92-98 percent of the propane from an input air stream containing 0.6–1 percent propane.     

Electrocatalytic oxidation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in aqueous solution at a nickel electrode

This study utilized the electrocatalytic characteristics of nickel electrode to perform degradation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in aqueous solution. Lab experiments were conducted in a spiltless bath type cell equipped with a nickel electrode as working electrode, a platinum wire as counter electrode, and an Ag/AgCl electrode as reference electrode. Effects of controlled potential, supporting electrolyte, and solution pH on the efficiency of MTBE removal were examined under the control of the constant-potential conditions. Experiment results showed that the optimum electrolytic condition was operated at 0.35 V in a 1M KOH electrolyte solution, and the initial 20 mgl(-1) MTBE was reduced by 73% within 180 min under the optimum control. As using 1M Na2SO4 and 1M KCl as electrolyte, the efficiency of MTBE removal dropped to 60% and 50% under the similar controls. Comparing with various pH controls, the strong basic condition is favorable for electrocatalytic oxidation of MTBE in the Ni-electrolytic system. The efficiency of MTBE removal showed a rising trend with increasing initial pH of the solution. The formation of a redox NiOOH/Ni(OH)2 layer on the anode surface, which was observed on the SEM image, can explain that nickel plays a mediator role on improving electrocatalytic oxidation of MTBE at 0.35 V in a strong basic condition. The by-products of MTBE degradation were identified as acetone and CO(2) by GC/MS, and the distributions of carbon atoms in acetone, CO2, and MTBE were found 22%, 51%, and 27% through the optimum control of electrochemical oxidation.     

Effects of increased sea water concentrations of CO2 on growth of the bivalve Mytilus edulis L

It has been proposed that emission of anthropogenic carbon dioxide to the atmosphere will lead to increased concentrations of CO(2) in sea water corresponding to a decrease of pH of several tenths of pH units. An experiment was performed to test the effects of increased sea water concentrations of CO(2) on shell growth of the blue mussel Mytilus edulis. The experiment was performed in aquaria continuously flushed with sea water spiked with CO(2) to provide five different levels of pH between 6.7 and control sea water with a pH of 8.1. The shell length of the mussels was measured at the start and end of the 44 days experimental period. No mortality was observed during the first 23 days of the experiment. The growth increment in mm was much larger for small mussels than for large mussels, but relative growth profile as function of pH was more similar in the two size groups; observed differences may be random variation between samples. The experiments showed that CO(2) induced reduction of pH affects the growth of M. edulis negatively. There was a strong and statistically significant decrease in growth at the lowest pH values, with virtually no growth at pH = 6.7 and reduced growth at pH = 7.1. The effect seems to set in between pH 7.4 and 7.1; at mean pH levels 7.4 and 7.6 the growth increments were not significantly different from growth at normal pH 8.1.     

Effects of Gaseous Air Pollutants on Gastric Secreto-Motor Activities in the Rat

A study was initiated to ascertain whether gaseous air pollutants can influence gastric secreto-motor activities. The investigation was conducted to determine the effect of various exposures to S0₂, N0₂, CO, and 0₃ on gastric motor activity of the conscious unrestrained rat by means of a chronic intragastric bajloon. Tfie effects produced upon gastric secretory volume and total titratable acid secretion produced by these gases were also studied in rats which were pylorus-ligated subsequent to exposure. Rats exposed to 1 ppm S0₂ for 5 days, 60 ppm CO for 2 hours, 0.5 ppm N0₂ for 2 hours, or 0.25 ppm 0₃ for 2 hours showed no change while there was gastric inhibition at 300 ppm S0₂ for 2 hours, 1400 ppm CO for 1 hour, 26 ppm N0₂ for 2 hours and 1.5 ppm 0₃ for 2 hours. In most instances following chamber flushing recovery was complete within minutes. To evaluate the site and nature of stimulation, rats were also exposed to oil of mustard, benzaldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, amyl acetate, and “Old Spice” after sh ave lotion. Saturated dental paper points were introduced without obstruction into tracheal and retro-nasal cannulae. Oil of mustard but not benzaldehyde or amyl acetate inhibited gastric motility only when applied to the trachea. In general, the drop in activity was immediate and proportional to the degree of exposure. Nasal irritation was ineffective in eliciting the response. The experimental results lead to the following conclusions: 1) Toxic levels of these gases are associated with an inhibition of gastric motility that is not produced by .exposure of the nasal passages alone to the gases. 2) Toxic levels of these gases produced no demonstrable effect upon either total gastric acid secretion or total secretory volume. These findings tend to confirm earlier observations of an association between exposure to toxic concentrations of S0₂ and loss of gastric tone in the rodent stomach.     

Effect of ozone on growth of mosses on disturbed forest soil

Mixed forest floor organic matter and upper mineral soil from a 1580 m elevation conifer-hardwood stand in the Pisgah National Forest, NC, was placed in 4-cm diameter x 21-cm deep tubes and exposed to 0.00, 0.08, 0.16, 0.24 or 0.32 microl O3/liter air (ppm). Twelve tubes in each of three replications/treatment were fumigated in continuously-stirred tank reactors in a greenhouse for 6 h/day on 4 consecutive days/week. Soil was watered 3 days/week with deionized water amended with ions and adjusted to pH 4.3 with H2SO4 + HNO3 (70 meq SO4(2-): 30 meq NO3(-)). After 10 weeks the amount of soil surface covered by moss (predominantly Ditrichum pusillum, but also D. lineare, and Pohlia nutans) was estimated visually and assigned a rating on a scale of: 1 = 0-25%; 2 = 26-50%; 3 = 51-75%; 4 = 76-100%. Linear regression analysis revealed a significant (p < 0.001) negative relationship between coverage ratings and O3 concentration. Surface coverage in tubes exposed to 0.32 or 0.24 ppm was about half of that for 0.00 ppm (mean ratings of 1.1, 1.4 and 2.6, respectively). Coverage differences appeared to be due in part to O3 suppression of plant numbers. Linear regression analysis also revealed a significant (p < 0.001) negative relationship between heights of D. pusillum plants (measured after 12 weeks treatment) and O3 concentration.

Effects of enhanced O3 and CO2 enrichment on plant characteristics in wheat and corn

The effects of CO(2) enrichment and O(3) induced stress on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and corn (Zea mays L.) were studied in field experiments using open-top chambers to simulate the atmospheric concentrations of these two gases that are predicted to occur during the coming century. The experiments were conducted at Beltsville, MD, during 1991 (wheat and corn) and 1992 (wheat). Crops were grown under charcoal filtered (CF) air or ambient air + 40 nl liter(-1) O(3) (7 h per day, 5 days per week) having ambient CO(2) concentration (350 microl liter(-1) CO(2)) or + 150 microl liter(-1) CO(2) (12 h per day.). Averaged over O(3) treatments, the CO(2)-enriched environment had a positive effect on wheat grain yield (26% in 1991 and 15% in 1992) and dry biomass (15% in 1991 and 9% in 1992). Averaged over CO(2) treatments, high O(3) exposure had a negative impact on wheat grain yield (-15% in 1991 and -11% in 1992) and dry biomass (-11% in 1991 and -9% in 1992). Averaged over CO(2) treatments, high O(3) exposure decreased corn grain yield by 9%. No significant interactive effects were observed for either crop. The results indicated that CO(2) enrichment had a beneficial effect in wheat (C(3) crop) but not in corn (C(4) crop). It is likely that the O(3)-induced stress will be diminished under increased atmospheric CO(2) concentrations; however, maximal benefits in crop production in wheat in response to CO(2) enrichment will not be materialized under concomitant increases in tropospheric O(3) concentration.
