1、Designation: F1279 08 (Reapproved 2014)Standard Guide forEcological Considerations for the Restriction of the Use ofSurface Washing Agents: Permeable Land Surfaces1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1279; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforigina
2、l adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers the use of surface washing agents toassist in th
3、e control of oil spills. The guide is written with thegoal of minimizing the environmental impacts of oil spills; thisgoal is the basis on which the recommendations are made.Aesthetic and socioeconomic factors are not considered al-though these and other factors are often important in spillresponse.
4、1.2 In making surface washing agent use decisions, appro-priate government authorities should be consulted as requiredby law.1.3 Spill responders have available several means to controlor clean up spilled oil. In this guide, the use of chemical surfacewashing agents is considered.1.4 This guide appl
5、ies only to permeable land surfaces.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the use
6、r of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Background6.1 On permeable surfaces, the main concern is the penetra-tion of the oil downwards and the possibility of soil andgroundwater contamination (1, 2).3Efforts are generally fo-cused on removing liquid oil rapidly and preventing furtheraerial and downward
11、 contamination in the soil and to thegroundwater (3). (See Guide F1280.)6.2 The effects of oil and especially that of treated oil onterrestrial biota have been studied. In one study, oil spilled onsoil decreased the nematode (worm) population by as much as80 % (4). Lai Hoi-Chaw and co-workers show t

15、28-2959. United States1of the species to both oil and chemically-dispersed oil. McGillhas noted that soil arthropods (insects) are quickly killed afterspills (6).6.3 Oil has a broad-spectrum herbicidal effect on plants (7,8). Effects vary depending on concentration and on species. Oilin low concentr
16、ations has been shown to increase growth insome species, whereas slight contact with oil causes death inothers (7). Black spruce, alfalfa, and canola have a lowtolerance for oil, while willow, dogwood, and brome grasshave a high tolerance (8). Light oils may be toxic to vegetationon contact. Heavy o
17、ils have a tendency to smother plants overa longer period of time (6). Oiling of the vegetative portionsmay kill the upper portion of the plant, but the root may stilllive and proceed to grow new stalks (6). In one test, 0.4 to 3.4L/m2of a light crude oil killed most plants in a northern borealsetti
18、ng (9). In another experiment, light fuel oil at 0.6 % byweight killed all plants present (10). Oil reduces the germina-tion rate of seeds. Weathered oil on the soil forms a crust whichcan slow revegetation (6). Revegetation time varies but hasranged from 1 to 20 years depending on location and spil
19、lconditions (amount, oil type, time of year) (4, 6).6.4 Oil spilled on ground will penetrate the surface, the rateof penetration depending on soil type, pore size, depth of thewater table, and oil type. Surface washing agents increase thepenetration rate and depth (11, 12). Dewling and Silva exam-in
20、ed the use of surface washing agents in Brazil and deter-mined that the average penetration of oil was increased from 5to 60 cm by the use of hydrocarbon-based surface washingagents (13).6.5 Oil degradation takes place on soil surfaces under manyconditions. Factors that increase degradation rate and
21、 amountinclude higher-than-normal oxygen level, ample but not exces-sive (saturating) moisture, slightly alkaline pH, high tempera-ture and ample nutrients (4). Initially after a spill, the diversityof soil microorganisms is decreased by the toxicity of the oil,but the total number is increased due
22、to the increase in numberof oleoclasts (oil degrading microorganisms). Parkinsonshowed in a test spill on northern boreal soil that soilrespiration increased 100 % and the bacterial numbers in-creased tenfold (14).6.6 Microbial degradation of oil occurs primarily at the soilsurface (4, 7, 15). One s
23、tudy showed that below 15 cm therewas little degradation (15). Degradation occurs primarily at thesurface due to oxgyen, low but sufficient moisture, supply ofnutrients, and because the occurrence of the great number ofoleoclasts (4).6.7 Contamination of surface water and groundwater is ofprime conc
24、ern in land spills. Little oil degradation takes placein groundwater and dilution alone would take many years toallow use of a groundwater supply contaminated by an oil spill(4, 16). One study estimated that 120 to 750 years of rainfalldilution alone would be required so that the supply could beused
25、 for human consumption (16). On the other hand, in a karstenvironment, flow to groundwater could do more significantdamage. Movement of contaminated groundwater can result inbroad contamination of the subsurface.6.8 Several biological remediation techniques have beendemonstrated for oiled soils (4,
26、6, 8, 17, 18). Most of thesetechniques involve aeration, addition of fertilizer, and plantingof cover crops. These techniques are well-documented andhave been effective in restoring agricultural land to fullproduction in as little as five years. No scientific evidence isavailable to show that surfac
27、e washing agents have a usefulrole in these remediation techniques.6.9 Several spills on permeable land have been dealt withsuccessfully using mechanical removal, in-situ burning andother remediation techniques (1, 19, 20, 21).6.10 Studies of the toxicity of natural products such asd-limonene, from
28、citrus peels, reveals that many of these havehigh aquatic toxicities, while showing little human toxicity.Such agents are not recommended for use where runoff caneffect biota (22, 23). (See Guide F1872.)7. Recommendations7.1 Surface washing agents should not be used on anypermeable land surfaces.8.
