ASSESSMENT OF THE SAFETY OF DIOCTYL ADIPATE IN FRESHWATER ENVIRONMENTS

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1986
Abstract A safety assessment of dioctyl adipate (DOA) in freshwater environments was conducted. DOA is relatively insoluble in water and is likely to partition to sediment and biota in the aquatic environment. Biodegradation was found to be rapid and extensive under conditions simulating sewage systems and the natural environment ...

Riboflavin-photosensitized degradation of atrazine in a freshwater environment

Chemosphere, 2002
The effect of the photosensitizer riboflavin (0, 10, 50, 100 microM) on the fate of atrazine (10 mg/l) in a freshwater environment was studied. It was found that at 100 microM riboflavin significantly enhanced the degradation of atrazine and more than 80% of atrazine in a natural water environment was depleted in 72 h.

Environments and Ecosystems: Freshwater and Marine

1984
Protozoa are found in a remarkable variety of environments. The range of habitats extends from the frozen soils of the polar regions to the hot spring run-offs from thermal areas, from the crystal-clear waters of oligotrophic alpine lakes to the richly polluted waters of sewage systems which operate on biological treatment. They are found in freshwater

Sources of chemical contaminants and routes into the freshwater environment

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2000
Drinking water is derived from either surface waters or groundwater. The latter is of enormous importance, with more than 65% of Europe's drinking water needs being supplied in this way. However, water from either source is rarely, if ever, pure. Industrialization and urbanization together with intensified agricultural activity have led to increased ...

Microplastics in Freshwater Environments: Sources, Behaviour, and Ecotoxicity

Microplastics have emerged as widespread contaminants in freshwater ecosystems. However, their sources, environmental behaviour, and ecotoxicological impacts remain under-characterised relative to marine environments. This chapter provides a comprehensive review of microplastic pollution in freshwater systems, encompassing rivers, lakes, lagoons, and ...
