The sorption kinetics and isotherms showed that the sorption of PFOS on the humic substances（HSs） was much higher than PFHx S. For the same PFSA compound, the sorption on HSs followed the order of HM 〉 HA2 〉 HA1. These suggest that hydrophobic interaction plays a key role in the sorption of PFSAs on HSs. The sorption capacities of PFSAs on HSs were significantly related to their aliphaticity, but negatively correlated to aromatic carbons,indicating the importance of aliphatic groups in the sorption of PFSAs. Compared to PFOS,PFHx S displayed distinct desorption hysteresis, probably due to irreversible pore deformation after sorption of PFHx S. The sorption of the two PFSAs on HSs decreased with an increase in p H in the solution. This is ascribed to the electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding at lower p H. Hydrophobic interaction might also be stronger at lower p H due to the aggregation of HSs.展开更多
