title: [Influences of surfactant on the transport of PAHs in artificially contaminated soil columns].
abstract: The effect of anionic surfactant LAS on leaching of PAHs from artificially contaminated soil was studied. The interaction of these processes were studied in a two-layer column experiment with a base layer of uncontaminated soil(9cm) and a top layer of artificially contaminated soil(1cm). Results show that 5 critical micelle concentration (CMC) LAS enhanced the transport of PAHs. The breakthrough curves of low ring PAHs followed the normal distribution and the relative leaching ratios of 4 or more rings PAHs were low, and not more than 10%. The transport of PAHs was retarded compared with LAS, and the high ring PAHs were retarded more significantly. Linear correlation was observed between the relative leachability of the individual PAHs and the octanol/water coefficient of PAHs.
