| Abstract | A study was conducted on the kinetics, equilibrium, and mechanisms of sorption and desorption of 17 -ethinyl estradiol (EE2) in six sorbents, which were two natural soils (Bulk1 and Bulk2) and their fractions obtained by alkaline extraction, namely, humic acids (HA1 and HA2), and mineral-bond humins (MHU1 and MHU2). These sorbents, characterized by total organic carbon (TOC), black carbon (BC), gas adsorption and Fourier transform infrared spectra, were shown to be porous solids containing aromatic (hard carbon) and aliphatic carbon (soft carbon). The two-compartment first-order model fitted the kinetics of sorption very well (R(2)>0.990). The fast and slow sorption rate constants ranged from 1.110 h(-1) and 0.026 h(-1) to 2.063 h(-1) and 0.067 h(-1), respectively. The slow sorption was attributed to the diffusion of EE2 in micropores rather than organic matter. The Freundlich model fitted the equilibrium of sorption and desorption very well. The nonlinearity of sorption took the order MHU>bulk soil>HA and was positively related to BC/TOC (p<0.01). The hysteresis in MHU2 with higher BC/TOC was stronger than that in Bulk2 with lower BC/TOC, but a contrary observation was found in MHU1 and Bulk1. This contradictory phenomenon could be attributed to the location difference of hard carbon which greatly affected the desorption process. These findings could give an insight into the sorption mechanisms and promote an accurate model for the transport, fate and risk assessment of EE2 in the environment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
