3.3.1 TRANSPORT BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL COMPARTMENTS<br />

Type : volatility<br />

Media : water - air<br />

Soil : % (Fugacity Model Level II/III)<br />

Method : other: measured<br />

Year : 1999<br />

Method : Thermodynamic column method of Brunner et al. 1990 applied [Brunner S,<br />

Hornung E, Santl H, Wolff E, Pringer OG, Altschuh J, Brueggemann R<br />

(1990) Henry´s law constants for polychlorinated biphenyls: Experimental<br />

determination and structure-property relationship. Environ Sci Technol 24,<br />

1751 - 1754]:<br />

- Aqueous solution of the TS produced in a generator column<br />

- Solution is passed through gas liquid desorption column where it contacts<br />

a gas stream and the partition equilibrium is reached<br />

- Gas and water are separated: water flows to the receiver dosing funnel,<br />

the gas is conducted into an absorption vessel where the TS is absorbed in<br />

organic solvent<br />

Result : Henry's law constant (25 degrees C) for m-cresol:<br />

H = 3.5 E-5 calculated to<br />

H = 8.67 E-2 Pa.m3.mol-1<br />

Test condition : - Temperature 25 °C<br />

- Gas phase: Nitrogen<br />

- Liquid phase: Demineralized, distilled water<br />

- Analysis: GC/ECD<br />
