Volatile Organic Carbon Sorption to Soil

Equation is an example of a “linear isotherm.” The success of the linear isotherm in describing sorption of nonionic organic pollutants in saturated soils has been remarkable. Linear isotherms have been found to describe sorption of a wide array of nonionic compounds onto sediments and soils (Karickhoff et al. 1979, Chiou et al. 1979). ................
