The distribution of
Triclosan
within the
Hudson
River Estuary can be explained by a balance among the overall effluent inputs from municipal sewage treatment facilities, dilution of
Triclosan
concentrations in the water column with freshwater and seawater inputs, removal of
Triclosan
from the water column by adsorption to particles, and loss to photodegradation. This study shows that an average water column concentration of 3+/-2 ng/l (in the lower
Hudson
River Estuary) is consistent with an estimate for dilution of average wastewater concentrations with seawater and calculated rates of adsorption of
Triclosan
to particles. An average
Triclosan
sediment concentration of 26+/-11 ng/g would be in equilibrium with the overlying water column if
Triclosan
has a particle-to-water partitioning coefficient of k(d) approximately 10(4), consistent with laboratory estimates.
