1 Characterization of Contaminant and Biomass-Derived Organic Matter in Sediments from the Lower Passaic River, New Jersey, USA Nicole M. Bujalski Michael A. Kruge Earth and Environmental Studies Department, Montclair State University, Ney Jersey, USA
2 Project Goals Understand the processes involved in legacy and ongoing contaminant patterns in the lower Passaic River using an environmental forensics approach Distinctive molecular fingerprints Relation to sediment and contaminant transport
3 We previously reported at PRS: Importance and characteristics of sedimentary biomass land plant, algal, bacterial, sewage PAH and petroleum contamination orders of magnitude greater than dioxin Possible subsurface migration of coal tar (MGP?) into deep PR sediments
4 Methods High resolution sub-sampling of four long (4-7 m) sediment cores from the Lower Passaic River Sediment grain size distribution Molecular organic geochemistry (Pyrolysis-GC/MS) Polycyclic aromatic compounds Petroleum biomarker compounds Biomass pyrolysis products Principal components analysis Integration of results with existing LPRRP data set Chemostratigraphy

26 Conclusions Recognition of 3 chemostratigraphic zones in all 4 cores PAH contamination ranges from "serious" to "extreme" Notable in lower zone "pyrogenic signature" Associated with sandy lens in Core 7 (near former MGP) Petroleum contamination distinctive Notable in middle zone Biomass relatively more abundant in upper zone Aquatic signature closer to river mouth tidal influence Land plant signature upstream fluvial influence
27 Consider - PR sediments are very organic-rich: Hydrocarbon contamination & biomass Approaching fuel-grade Something like Canada's Athabasca tar sands Alternate solution to disposal of dredged materials: Advanced fluidized bed reactor Energy generation (electricity, steam) Clean residual sediment for beneficial reuse Eliminates vexing disposal issues
