Abstract:PFOA and PFOS on soil/sediment - water distribution affect the concentration of residues in the environment, migration, transformation, and biological availability, toxicity, etc. The research of PFOA and PFOS adsorption/desorption on soil/sediment help us to prevent the pollution and repair the environment. PFOA and PFOS sorption and desorption on soils/sediments were reviewed in this paper. Some factors affecting PFOA and PFOS adsorption and desorption including pH, soil characteristics (clay minerals and organic matter), [Ca2+], surfactant. The mechanism in adsorption-desorption models were distribution function and entropy-driven sorption of adsorption. The research of PFOA and PFOS adsorption/desorption isotherm equation, constant, parameters were summarized. Correlation coefficient of Freundlich equation was from 0.74 to 0.99, the correlation coefficient of linear equation from 0.91 to 0.99. The average logKoc of PFOS in soil/sediment was 3.0, the variation coefficient was 23.3%; while the desorption of constant logKoc mean value was 1.8, the variation coefficient was 15.4%. The average logKoc of PFOA in soil/sediment adsorption constants was 2.1, the variation coefficient was 45.6%; while the desorption of constant logKoc mean value was 5.4, the variation coefficient was 52.3%. As lab-based logKoc was lower than ones under field condition (logKoc(PFOA) 3.7, logKoc(PFOS) 4.2), the process of adsorption-desorption in soil/sediment under field condition and the control in soil-plant systems of PFOA and PFOS should to be further research.
