- Partition kinetics of chlorobenzenes in a sediment-water system were measured.
- A model with experimental constants was developed to describe the kinetics.
- Adsorption rate increased while desorption rate constants decreased with KOW.
- Highly linear relationships were observed for QSAR of rate constants.
- The model can be used to evaluate their behaviour in the aquatic environment.
The partition kinetics of chlorobenzenes (CBs) in a sediment-water system were studied to provide a basis for understanding the compounds' behaviour in the natural aquatic environment. A series of chlorobenzenes (CBs) 1,4-dichlorobenzene (DCB), 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene (TCB), 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB), pentachlorobenzene (QCB), and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) were spiked to the sediment, and the concentrations of CBs both in sediment and water were measured at six different mixing time periods (0.17, 1, 4, 12, 24 and 48Â h). A partition kinetics model was developed to determine kinetics rate constants. Adsorption rate constants increased (DCB 15.3; HCB 26.3Â LÂ kgâ1Â hâ1) while desorption rate constants decreased (DCB 0.41; HCB 0.01 hâ1) with KOW values. The times to reach equilibrium in the system were between 6.7Â h (HCB) and 14.3Â h (TeCB), with no specific pattern related to the KOW values of CBs. The kinetics of CBs were fitted to a first-order kinetics with a single-compartment model. QSAR analysis showed strong linear relationships between kinetics rate constants and physicochemical properties.
