Leaching of PCB compounds from untreated and biotreated sludge-soil mixtures
Abstract
Column experiments were conducted to evaluate the aqueous leachability of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from sludge-soil mixtures contaminated with PCBs and hydraulic oils. Untreated and biotreated sludge-soil samples were obtained from a two-month, pilot-scale field test of PCB biodegradation in land treatment units. Column leachate comprised mainly di- and trichlorobiphenyls. In comparison to untreated samples, column leachate from …
