abstract = {Laboratory studies are useful for understanding the
behavior of persistent organic pollutants (POPS) in soil,
although such investigations do not always relate directly
to field conditions. Outdoor lysimeter studies may be used
to overcome this problem. This work aimed to investigate the
behavior of two polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)
(fluoranthene and benzo[a]pyrene) and two polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs; congeners 28 and 52) in soil, using
lysimeters established in 1990 at the Agrosphere Institute
(Forschungszentrum Julich GrnbH, Germany). The two PAHs were
in one lysimeter, and the PCBs were in a second lysimeter. A
further aim of the study was to determine soil half-lives
for each of the contaminants. The overall decline in PAH
concentrations was considerably greater than for the PCBs
over the 152 month study. The PCBs exhibited greater
chemical extractability than the PAHs and were demonstrated
to have migrated through the soil column to a greater extent
than the PAHs. Loss of PCBs from surface soil was not
considered to have been congener specific for the two PCB
congeners in this study. The two PAHs varied in their
extents of total loss and movement through the soil column.
Soil half-lives were determined as 10.9 y for [C-12]PCB 28,
11.2 yr for[C-12]PCB 52, 2.7 yr for benzo[a]pyrene, and 32 d
(phase 1) to 38 yr (phase 2) for fluoranthene. These are
shown to disagree with some previous estimates of POP
half-lives in soil, suggesting that previous studies
underestimated persistence by 10-fold or more.},
