Abstract:

To explore the migration and transformation of forchlorfenuron in soil and the effect of organic matter on the process, the batch equilibrium experiments were used to investigate the adsorption and desorption of forchlorfenuron in two soils with different organic matter contents. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics could be well described by the pseudo-second order kinetics model, and the R2reached 0.9999. All adsorption and desorption isotherms were of deviation from the linear model, and all experimental data could be best described by the Freundlich model. Meanwhile, adsorption capacity in soil with high organic matter content was higher than that in soil with low organic matter content, but there was hysteresis in the desorption process. All the results showed that the adsorption of forchlorfenuron by organic matter was mainly in the presence of organic matter, while the adsorption of inorganic minerals was very weak. And organic matter could significantly increase the adsorption capacity of forchlorfenuron. However, the desorption process of forchlorfenuron in soil with high organic matter content had significant hysteresis behavior with hysteresis index of 0.6273, while the hysteresis index in soil with low organic matter had a negative value, which indicated that organic matter can enhance the immobilization of forchlorfenuron and reduce the risk of its migration and transformation.
