  • Efficacy of Electrolyzed Water in Degrading and Removing
    EFFICACY OF ELECTROLYZED WATER IN DEGRADING AND REMOVING PESTICIDE RESIDUES ON FRESH PRODUCE By HANG QI (Under the Direction of Yen-Con Hung) ABSTRACT Pure solution of diazinon, cyprodinil, and phosmet were treated with electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water and electrolyzed reduced (ER) water. Lower pH, higher available chlorine content (ACC), and longer treatment time of EO water resulted in higher reductions of the three pesticides. ER water was effective in degrading phosmet, slightly effective in reducing diazinon, and ineffective in degrading cyprodinil. Soaking grapes in 12 mg/L mixed pesticide solution for 10 min was found to be the appropriate method for pesticide inoculation. EO water at 500 mL combined with 100 rpm shaking was determined to be the most effective way to wash 200 g contaminated grapes. Then, fresh grapes, spinach, and snap peas contaminated with the three pesticides were washed with EO water at different ACC and treatment time. The results showed both ACC and treatment time were significant (P ≤ 0.05) factors for EO water in removing the three pesticide residues on produce samples. EO water was more effective than ER water, diluted bleach, Vegwash and DI water. Finally, the effect of EO water treatment on produce quality was evaluated. No significant (P > 0.05) color and texture degradation was found for EO water treated produce samples.

    Pesticide Degradates of Concern to the Drinking Water Community Project #2938 Subject Area: High-Quality Water Web Report TO: Awwa Research Foundation Subscribers RE: Enclosed report, Pesticide Degradates of Concern to the Drinking Water Community The objectives of this project were to develop a priority list of pesticides and their degradates and adjuvants of potential concern and identify related research priorities. To meet these objectives, the research team collated data on the occurrence, properties, persistence and toxicity of pesticide degradates and adjuvants in soils, waters, and treatment processes; and held a workshop to discuss prioritization approaches and research needs. The information generated from the literature review and workshop recommendations has been summarized in the enclosed report and was used to develop a priority list of pesticide degradates. General research needs in four key areas were also identified at the workshop and are included in the report. Due to the technical nature of this project, the results are being made available to both subscribers and the research community through this electronic version of the report on AwwaRF’s web site. ©2008 AwwaRF.

It therefore supports the implementation of a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program for all school buildings and grounds with the goal of controlling pests while preventing exposure of children to harmful pesticides. 1 Integrated Pest Management (IPM) will be defined as the coordinated use of physical, biological and cultural controls, and, in the face of a public health threat or substantial property damage, the use of least-toxic pest control chemicals. The goal of using IPM in Wellesley is to control pests without exposing people, property and the environment to harmful chemicals. Integrated Pest Management will be understood to involve the monitoring of pest populations, establishment of tolerance thresholds, modifications of habitats (to eliminate sources of food, water and harborage and entry), utilization of least-toxic controls, keeping of records and evaluation of performance on an ongoing basis.
