“…Table 2 reports the theoretical benzo(a)pyrene monolayer molar adsorption capacity (mol/m 2 ) of the different carbons based on their measured BET surface areas and the known geometric area of the benzo(a)pyrene molecular face (255.2 Å 2 ). 46 This estimate assumes that adsorption occurs in parallel, π-π stacking mode as has been previously reported, 47 which is common for higher-MW PAH on carbon surfaces. Table 2 compares the theoretical monolayer adsorption capacity with the experimental value at the equilibrium concentration of 6 mg/L, at which the apparent fractional coverages were estimated.…”

“…These observations suggest that microorganisms take longer to acclimate and therefore to degrade phenanthrene at lower concentrations; while at higher concentrations, longer residence time can be interpreted as saturation of phenanthrene. The phenomena of adsorption and desorption of phenanthrene on charcoal seem to play an important role (Li et al 2012). The microbial growth in the reactor can also be inhibited by the presence of toxic metabolites, which are the products of phenanthrene degradation and their accumulation in the medium.…”

“…If large quantities of PAHs are released to soil, the sorption and desorption processes will take place at higher rates due to increased diffusivity in soil caused by steeper concentration gradients (Huang and Weber, 1998;Braida et al, 2001;Braida et al, 2002;Li et al, 2013) (Table 2). Importantly, high concentrations of PAHs may induce 'conditioning effects' on soil matrices (Braida et al, 2002).…”
