Influence of contamination with diesel oil on water sorptivity and hydrophobicity of sandy loam soil

Abstract: This paper shows the changes in water sorptivity (S w ) and hydrophobicity following soil contamination with petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) under different soil moistures.Laboratory experiments were carried out to verify that contamination with PHs reduces S w , thus affecting the infiltrability, which in practice influences the field water capacity and the availability of water for plants. Soil water repellency (SWR) was estimated by the repellency index (R) and water drop penetration time (WDPT).The increase i… Show more

“…Prolonged exposure to PHs can lead to a decrease in the affinity of the soil surface for water molecules, which disrupts its water-holding properties. Possible mechanisms that contribute to changes in soil moisture retention include the formation of a surface film at the «solid-air» interface and direct contamination of soil macro-and microchannels by PHs [44]. Thus, it can be assumed that over time, the accumulation of PHs in the layers of the rain garden structure can directly affect the hydraulic characteristics of the entire system, with a violation of its functionality and efficiency.…”
