Detailed characterization of the corrosion and runoff of copper samples exposed to air and rain in urban and rural environments. Characterized the chemical composition of the corrosion products that formed on the surface of the copper samples. Measured copper in runoff and performed a mass balance on the material, corrosion product, and runoff copper. Looked at the form of the copper in the runoff, which was found to be 70-90% in the form of dissolved copper measurable with a copper ion selective electrode (which measures dissolved copper 2+ ions). Observed seasonal differences in corrosion chemistry at the rural site only (attributed to humidity changes) and differences in chemistry and runoff quantities between urban and rural test sites, attributed to the presence of pollutants in urban air. |
