    Description / Table of Contents: This book presents a detailed analysis in relation to pollutant processes and transport pathways encompassing atmospheric pollutants, atmospheric deposition and build-up on road surfaces of traffic generated key pollutants. The research study undertaken by the authors created extensive knowledge relating to the relevant processes and establishing their relationships as a chain of processes. The information presented in this book was derived based on comprehensive experimental investigations including field sampling, laboratory testing, mathematical modelling and multivariate and univariate statistical data analyses. The knowledge presented will be of particular interest to readers such as stormwater treatment design specialists, decision-makers and urban planners since these outcomes provide practical suggestions and recommendations to effective urban stormwater treatment design

    Notes: Summary The stoichiometry and kinetics of the oxidation of ethyl-enediaminetetraacetate by [Fe(phen)3]3+, [Fe(bipy)3]3+ and [CoIIIW12O40]5− were studied in aqueous HClO4. Reaction rates were first order with respect to the oxidants and the reductant, and the dependence of the second order rate constant k 2 on [H+] is given by k 2 = a + b[H+ −. The primary products were CO2, CH2O and (CH2NH2)2. Schuster treatment is employed to show that the reactions occur by the outersphere mechanism.

    Notes: Summary The stoichiometries, kinetics and mechanisms of oxidation of (NH2)2CS (1) and (Me2N)2CS (2) to the corresponding disulphides by CoIIIM (M = W12O40 ∞-) in aqueous HC1O4 were investigated. The reaction with (1) follows the empirical rate law- d[oxidant] = k[reductant][oxidant] where k = 12.5 ± 0.3 m−1 s−1 at 25° C, while that with (2) follows the equation- d[oxidant] = a + b [reductant] [reductant] [oxidant] where a = 5.4 × 104 M−1s−1 and b = 3.3 × 106M−2 s−1 at 25° C. Free radicals are important in the reactions and possible reaction mechanisms are suggested and discussed.

    Notes: Summary The stoichiometry, kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine triacetate by K5CoIIIW12O40, Fe(phen) inf3 sup3+ and Fe(bipy) inf3 sup3+ have been studied. Each reaction is first order with respect to the oxidant and the reductant, but retarded by [H+] in the 0.20–1.60 mol dm −3 range. Simple electron exchanges are thought to occur, leading to the decarboxylation of the substrate.

    Notes: Summary The kinetics and mechanism of the reduction of MnO4 − by CoW12O4O6− in aqueous HC1O4 were studied. The reaction follows the rate law:-d[MnO inf4 sup− ]/dt = 5K a k[H+][MnO inf4 sup− ][CoW12O4O6−] with K a = 2.99 × 10−3mol−1 dm3 and k = 2.00 ± 0.02 × 103dm6mol−2s−1 at 25°C. Close agreement between k obs and k calc on the basis of Marcus theory suggest an outersphere mechanism operates. Alkali metal ions catalyse the reaction in the order K+ 〉 Na+ 〉 Li+ and this result has been rationalized.

    Description: Rivers are viewed as major pathways of microplastic transport from terrestrial areas to marine ecosystems. However, there is paucity of knowledge on the dispersal pattern and transport of microplastics in river sediments. In this study, a three dimensional hydrodynamic and particle transport modelling framework was created to investigate the dispersal and transport processes of microplastic particles commonly present in the environment, namely, polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyamide (PA), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in river sediments. The study outcomes confirmed that sedimental microplastics with lower density would have higher mobility. PE and PP are likely to be transported for a relatively longer distance, while PA and PET would likely accumulate close to source points. High water flow would transport more microplastics from source points, and high flow velocity in bottom water layer are suggested to facilitate the transport of sedimental microplastics. Considering the limited dispersal and transport, the study outcomes indicated that river sediments would act as a sink for microplastic pollutants instead of being a transport pathway. The patchiness associated with the hotspots of different plastic types is expected to provide valuable information for microplastic source tracking.
