PhotoFate: A New Approach in Accounting for the Contribution of Indirect Photolysis of Pesticides and Pharmaceuticals in Surface Waters

Lam, Monica W., Tantuco, Kathleen, Mabury, Scott A.·2003·Environmental Science & Technology

Abstract

A new approach was developed to account for the contribution of indirect photolysis of pesticides and pharmaceuticals in which laboratory test conditions are similar to those prevalent in the aqueous environment. Rates of photolysis as a function of water composition were investigated for several aquatic contaminants. Using the laboratory-based test system, PhotoFate, the dependence of phototransformation rates on concentrations of natural water constituents that are radical producers and scavengers (nitrate, colored dissolved organic matter, bicarbonate) was studied. Mean half-lives of the model compounds in the presence of water constituents were compared to their direct photolysis half-lives to assess the contribution of photosensitized reactions to their fate in surface waters. Reactions mediated by .OH were predominant in waters with high nitrate concentrations. Colored dissolved organic matter (cDOM) acted mainly as a radiation filter and had a more important role in scavenging radicals than in their production. However, in low nitrate waters, the contribution of cDOM-derived reactive intermediates to the degradation of parent compounds became more apparent

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
