    Author : Ylva Persson; Mats Tysklind; Lars Öberg; Staffan Lundstedt; Jaana Koistinen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; contaminated soil; hydrophobic organic contaminant; chlorinated phenoxyphenol; chlorinated diphenyl ether; chlorinated dibenzofuran; chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin; preservation; mobility; colloid; dissolved organic matter; particulate organic matter; groundwater; equilibrium column test; chlorophenol; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Abstract : Mixtures of chlorinated organic pollutants can be found in the soils at chlorophenol-contaminated sawmill, including (inter alia) polychlorinated phenols (CPs), phenoxyphenols (PCPPs), diphenyl ethers (PCDEs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and dioxins (PCDDs). These hydrophobic compounds have low water solubility and hence low mobility as truly dissolved compounds. READ MORE
