Migration Law of Atrazine During Freezing of Water
Abstract To explore the migration law of atrazine during the freezing process, an indoor simulated freezing experiment was carried out. The distribution coefficient (K) was used to characterize the migration ability of atrazine and explore the effects of freezing thickness, freezing temperature, and initial concentration on the migration of atrazine between ice and water. The research results showed that the concentration relationship between the ice and water phases was: ice < water before freezing < water under the ice. This indicates that atrazine migrated to the water under the ice during the freezing process in our experiment. The K value decreased as the ice thickness, freezing temperature, and initial concentration increased; thus, the greater the ice thickness, the higher the freezing temperature, the greater the initial atrazine concentration, and the greater the ability of atrazine to migrate to the water under the ice. This study provides a reference for managing natural waterbodies in high-latitude and high-altitude environments during the freezing period.
