In situ transformation of toluene and xylene to benzylsuccinic acid analogs in contaminated groundwater

Creator:: Reusser, Dominik E.
Abstract:: The rate of removal of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and the xylene isomers (BTEX) from contaminated groundwater is needed to design remediation processes. Benzylsuccinic acid (BSA) and methyl-benzylsuccinic acid (methyl BSA) are unambiguous metabolites of anaerobic BTEX biodegradation. An analytical method for quantitative determination of BSA in groundwater samples was developed....

Measuring in situ biotransformation in BTEX-contaminated groundwater

Creator:: Alumbaugh, Robert E.
Abstract:: Benzylsuccinate (BSA), methylbenzylsuccinate (methylBSA), and ethylbenzylsuccinate (ethylBSA) are unambiguous anaerobic biotransformation products from toluene, xylenes, and ethylbenzene decay, respectively, and may be used to indicate intrinsic bioremediation is occurring at hydrocarbon-contaminated sites. In order to improve upon current methods that detect and quantify anaerobic hydrocarbon metabolites in field samples, solid-phase-extraction...

Analytical method development for the identification, detection, and quantification of emerging environmental contaminants in complex matrices

Creator:: Place, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The development of analytical methods for emerging contaminants creates many unique challenges for analytical chemists. By their nature, emerging contaminants have inherent data gaps related to their environmental occurrence, fate, and impact. This dissertation is a compilation of three studies related to method development for the structural identification of emerging...

Large volume (1,800 µL) injection HPLC/MS/MS for the quantitative determination of illicit drugs and human urinary biomarkers in municipal wastewater

Creator:: Chiaia Hernandez, Aurea C.
Abstract:: A sensitive, selective, rapid analytical method based on large-volume injection (LVI) liquid chromatography/ tandem mass spectrometry was developed using commercially-available hardware that eliminates the need for either off-line or on-line solid phase extraction. Centrifugation followed by the direct injection of 1,800 µL was used for the quantification of illicit drugs,...

Poly- and perfluorinated alkyl substance release from landfills and landfill model reactors

Creator:: Allred, Brent McKay
Abstract:: Research and public concern of poly and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) as environmental contaminants has increased significantly due to the increasing number of reports of their detection in humans and wildlife. PFASs have a number of commercial applications including surfactants, coatings, polymers, and levelers, which are used on consumer products like...

New Approaches for Quantifying Target and Estimating Suspect PFAS in Complex Media

Creator:: Cao, Dunping
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of anthropogenic compounds that are used ubiquitously in different industrial fields. However, concerns regarding the potential health impacts of PFAS, including perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) and perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFSAs), has raised stakeholder interest regarding continued use of PFAS. Analytical methods for PFAS...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Environmental Air-Water Matrices and Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (LNAPL)

Creator:: Schwichtenberg, Trever J.
Abstract:: The presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), organic contaminants first synthesized in the 1940s, has been reported worldwide in a variety of environmental matrices and ultimately in biological systems including humans. Ongoing research into PFAS has included identifying novel PFAS, assessing their fate and transport in the environment, and...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) and Aqueous Film-Forming Foam Impacted Sites : New PFAS Discovery and Sorption of Anionic, Zwitterionic, and Cationic PFASs

Creator:: Barzen-Hanson, Krista A.
Abstract:: Public attention and concern about per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are increasing due to detection of PFASs in drinking water supplies, the environment, including remote locations, and wildlife and to the lowering of the federal health advisory levels of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in drinking water. Aqueous film-forming...

Fluorinated and deuterated surrogates for quantifying microbial transformation of chlorinated ethenes and ethanes in anaerobic groundwater

Creator:: Ennis, Elliot G.
Abstract:: Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) such as vinyl chloride (VC) and 1,-2 dichioroethane (DCA), are wide-spread groundwater pollutants found at many contaminated field sites around the world. Quantitative tools are needed to determine the in situ rates of VC and DCA transformation to ethene in contaminated groundwater. The objective of this...

Hydrophobicity, Anion Exchange, and Phytoaccumulation of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS): Retention and Remediation

Creator:: Parker, Bethany A.
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of contaminants of great concern due to their toxicity and ubiquity in the environment. Remediation efforts historically have focused on granular activated carbon (GAC) because of its low maintenance and relatively low cost. However, GAC is not PFAS selective and is especially...
