Interactions of Chlorine with Tropical Aquatic Fulvic Acids and Formation of Intermediates Observed by Fluorescence Spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
A interação entre ácidos fúlvicos aquáticos (AFA) de região tropical com cloro e formação de trihalometanos foi estudada por fluorescência. As substâncias húmicas aquáticas (SHA) foram extraídas de córrego com coloração escura (localizado em uma área de proteção ambiental perto da cidade de Cubatão-SP, Brasil) utilizando resina XAD 8, de acordo com o procedimento recomendado pela Sociedade Internacional de Substâncias Húmicas. As medidas de fotoluminescência foram feitas em espectrômetro Perkin Elmer utilizando-se amostras de AFA tratadas e sem tratamento com cloro em diferentes tempos de reação (1, 24, 48, 72 e 168 h) e concentrações de cloro (2,5; 5,0; 10,0 e 20,0 mg L). A intensidade de fluorescência relativa foi significativamente diminuída com o aumento da concentração de cloro e tempo de reação. A redução na intensidade de fluorescência na região de maiores comprimentos de onda foi interpretada como um indicativo da interação entre os grupos aromáticos condensados dos AFA e o cloro.

Humic substances and napropamide interactions in aqueous solution: A fluorescence spectroscopy study
The complexation of organic solutes with dissolved humic substances (HS) is an important process for the fate of these chemicals in natural aquatic systems. We used the Fluorescence Quenching technique to study the interactions between napropamide, a common herbicide, and ten dissolved humic or fulvic acids extracted from different soils and peats. The primary mechanism of napropamide quenching...
متن کاملFulvic acid complexation of Eu(III) and Cm(III) at elevated temperatures studied by time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy.
The interaction of Eu(III) and Cm(III) with three different aquatic fulvic acids (FA) was studied as a function of the temperature (T = 20-80 °C) in 0.1 M NaCl solution by time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy. The speciation of both trivalent metal ions was determined by peak deconvolution of the recorded fluorescence spectra. For each studied metal ion-FA system only one complexed spe...

Fulvic acids from deep clay formations have been isolated by the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS) standard protocol and analyzed. Near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy reveals, that the basic structural features relating to the origin of the clay organic matter (i.e., terrestrial or marine) are preserved even after the around 150 Ma since deposition (Juras...
متن کاملTrihalomethane reactivity of water- and sodium hydroxide-extractable organic carbon fractions from peat soils.
Certain organic carbon moieties in drinking source waters of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta can react with chlorine during disinfection to form potentially carcinogenic and mutagenic trihalomethanes. The properties of reactive organic carbon in Delta waters, particularly those of soil origin, have been poorly understood. This study attempts to characterize trihalomethane reactivity of soil or...
