Abstract:Aqueous metals and chlorophenols are common co-contaminants of groundwater systems. However, the importance of aqueous metal-chlorophenolate complexation cannot be accurately assessed because the stability constants for environmentally important aqueous metal-phenolate and metal-chlorophenolate complexes have not been measured. In order to determine the role these complexes play in contaminant transport, this study applies a correlation technique to the limited data that do exist to estimate the stabilities of metal-chlorophenolate complexes of environmental interest. Speciation calculations that are based on these estimated stability constants indicate that aqueous metal-chlorophenolate complexation may significantly affect both aqueous metal and dissolved chlorophenolate species distributions. Therefore, aqueous metal-chlorophenolate complexation may affect the extent of adsorption of both metals and chlorophenolates onto mineral surfaces. In addition, aqueous complexation may significantly enhance dissolution of aquifer aluminosilicate minerals. This study suggests that aqueous complexation between metals and chlorophenolates can significantly affect the mobility of metal and phenolic contaminants.
