Abstract

The characteristics for sorption of trichlorobenzene on sediment in Huaihe River (Jiangsu reach) was studied. It was also investigated at the same time that some factors of influence on the sorption, such as initial consistence of adsorbate, concertration of adsorbent and pH value, by ortho-experiment. The results indicate that the sorption isotherms of trichlorobenzene to sediment in Huaihe River (Jiangsu reach) are linear in the experiments condition, and distribution plays a leading role. The affected degrees of different environmental factors are different for sorption of trichlorobenzene on sediment in Huaihe River. The results of ortho-experiment are analysis with SPSS(Statistical Package for the Social Science) and the results are indicate that the affection of initial consistence of adsorbate is the biggest in all environmental factors, and initial consistences of adsorbate have expressly significant influence for sorption of trichlorobenzene on sediment in fresh water, and yet the pH has almost no influence for the sorption of trichlorobenzene on same sediment.
