Sorption of the Pesticide Endosulphan on Two Indian Soils

Endosulfan removal through bioremediation, photocatalytic degradation, adsorption and membrane separation processes: A review

“…Kumar and Philip [31] also pointed out the better adsorption capacity of clayey soil over other soil types. According to Iraqi and Iraqi [237] and Tariq et al [238], the amount of organic matter is one of the crucial factors which affects adsorption capacity. Rauf et al [239] used bentonite clay as adsorbent for endosulfan removal and reported that adsorption efficiency increased with lengthened contact time and increased amount of adsorbent.…”

Influence of Methanol on the Dynamics of the Retention and Release of Cyprodinil by an Agricultural Soil

“…The magnitude of such effects depends, among other things, on the processes that govern their mobility in soil. The mobility of moderately hydrophobic pesticides, like that of hydrophobic compounds in general, depends to a significant extent on hydrophobic interactions mediating their adsorption onto soil particles (1,2) and can be affected by any cosolvents that have been introduced, accidentally or intentionally, into the soil solution (3). Among other causes of the presence of cosolvents in the soil solution are their use as components of formulations used in agriculture and their use to solubilize poorly soluble substances in gaining access to a wider concentration range in experiments aimed at determining the adsorption isotherms of such substances.…”
