Research Question
What are the sorptive properties of a specific soil based on the amount and
type of organic matter contained within that soil?
![Page 3: REU Final Report Jeff Kyle Dr. David Sabatini Gavin James.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072005/56649cef5503460f949bd3fe/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Objectives
• Investigate sorption properties of Canadian River Alluvium (CRA) & powdered activated charcoal (PAC)
• Simulate Cheshire and Florida Peat
• Compare results
![Page 4: REU Final Report Jeff Kyle Dr. David Sabatini Gavin James.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072005/56649cef5503460f949bd3fe/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Hypothesis
Do opaque particles tend to govern sorption behavior?

Materials Used
• CRA• PAC• Simulated Cheshire• Simulated Florida Peat
• Organic Contaminant (Phenanthrene, C14H10)
• Synthetic GW
![Page 6: REU Final Report Jeff Kyle Dr. David Sabatini Gavin James.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072005/56649cef5503460f949bd3fe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Methods Used
• Develop initial equilibrium sorption study
• Develop initial kinetic sorption study
• Determine synthetic soil makeup
• Develop new equilibrium and kinetic sorption studies
• Make comparisons

Anticipated Results
• Large Kfr and Koc values for PAC (why?)
• Kfr and Koc values for simulated soils will differ (why and how?)
• Kfr increases as foc increases

Conclusions
• CRA displays expected Kfr and Koc values
• PAC displays large Kfr and Koc values, as expected
• Soil comparisons follow general trends; opaque important, but must consider all OC
