Acetochlor as a soil pollutant

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2002
Acetochlor is a widely used herbicide all over the world. Similarly to other organic pollutants, the environmental fate of the acetochlor is strongly related to its adsorption properties. Static adsorption equilibrium measurements were carried out at 25 degrees C on different types of Hungarian soils characterized by varying amounts of organic matter ...

Pollution Mechanisms and Soil-Pollutants Interaction

2004
Pollutants behaviour and interaction with soil comprise various physical, chemical, and biological processes that take place in all three (solid, gas and liquid) components of the soil medium. They generally include three main groups of processes: 1. Retention on, and within the soil body 2.

The Soil Pollutants

1996
We consider as a pollutant any chemical of natural or anthropogenic origin which accumulates in the soil medium and changes the natural soil equilibrium, as a result of human activity. A modern society, however, cannot be developed without the use of natural and synthetic compounds which may be added to the various ecosystems.
