Selectivity and Efficacy of Acetic Acid and d-Limonene on Four Aquatic Plants

HortTechnology, 2023
Most lake, canal, and pond management programs in the United States use herbicides labeled for aquatic use because many of these products, which are registered by the US Environmental Protection Agency, are relatively inexpensive and can effectively ...

Adsorption Equilibrium of a Herbicide (Pendimethalin) onto Natural Clay [PDF]

Adsorption Science & Technology, 2005
The equilibrium adsorption of a herbicide (pendimethalin) onto natural clay from aqueous solutions was studied experimentally using different system variables. The influence of such variables, such as particle size (dp), pH and temperature, on the adsorption capacity was studied. Equilibrium modelling was carried out using the Langmuir, Freundlich and
