International audience | The strong pest pressure on intensive banana cultivation in the French West Indies led to the intensive use of chlordecone (an organochlorine insecticide) between 1972 and 1993. Due to its high toxicity for the population and the environment, many studies were conducted on the transfer of chlordecone over the last 20 years. However, most studies focused on the dissolved fraction of chlordecone, while the particle-bound fraction was understudied. Therefore, this study reconstructs pluri-decadal erosion rates ( 1980–2023) and associated chlordecone particle-bound transfers from soil and sediment cores sampled in a cultivated headwater catchment (Saint-Esprit, Martinique). Based on sediment accumulation analyses in an agricultural reservoir, high erosion rates ( 10 t ha−1 yr−1) were found in the investigated catchment during the study period, with values exceeding the estimated tolerable soil loss rate in tropical contexts ( 2.2 t ha−1 yr−1). Based on the analysis of soil cores sampled along a banana plantation hillslope, this study highlights the formation of colluvial deposits with high levels of chlordecone contamination. When these areas are affected by erosion processes, this leads to massive remobilization of particle-bound chlordecone to water bodies. Indeed, in sediment sampled in the downstream reservoir, we observed a drastic increase in these transfers since 2006, synchronous with changes in agricultural practices. This study therefore highlighted the occurrence of legacy contamination at toeslope positions, which was estimated to potentially persist for 4000 to 11,000 years. Such a residence time highlights the need to implement changes in land management to effectively reduce erosion of agricultural soils, particularly in areas identified as ”temporary deposition zones” for chlordecone contamination, in order to protect downstream water bodies from chlordecone transfer. To achieve this, agricultural practices that may increase soil erosion, such as herbicide application or intensive ploughing, should be minimized. Overall, this study improved our understanding of erosion and associated chlordecone transfers in tropical environments.

International audience | Chemical pollution is a major threat to marine ecosystems, and top predators such as most shark species are extremely vulnerable to being exposed and accumulating contaminants such as metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs). This work aimed to study the degree, composition, and the sources of contamination in the blue shark (Prionace glauca) inhabiting the Northeast Atlantic, as well as the potential risk faced by human consumers. A total of 60 sharks were sampled in situ aboard fishing vessels, and the concentrations of a set of metals and POPs were analysed in various tissues and complemented with stable isotope analyses. High levels of contaminants were found in most sharks sampled. The concentrations of most metals were higher in the muscle when compared with the liver. Regarding the dangers to consumers posed by the concentrations of arsenic (As), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb), over 75% of the sharks presented muscle concentrations of at least one contaminant above the legal limits for human consumption, and a risk assessment determined that consumption of meat of these sharks exceeding 0.07 Kg per week could potentially expose human consumers to dangerous amounts of methylmercury (MeHg). Additionally, the assessment of single contaminants may lead to an underestimation of the risk for the human health. Finally, the overall accumulation of contaminants seems to be mostly influenced by the sharks' geographical distribution, rather than sex, size, or trophic level of their prey. ☆ This paper has been recommended for acceptance by Christian Sonne.

[Departement_IRSTEA]Ecotechnologies [TR1_IRSTEA]TED [Axe_IRSTEA]TED-EPURE | International audience | French vertical flow constructed wetlands treating raw wastewater have been developed successfully over the last 30 years. During the last years, SINT and Epur Nature developed the approach further by introducing a deep single-stage vertical flow bed that comprises both stages into one in the aim to reduce the footprint. This process, patented by Epur Nature as Bi-filtre®, consists in two vertical stages piled-up. While classical systems in France are designed with 2m².PE-1 (1.2m² and 0.8m² on the first and second stage respectively), the Bi-filtre® has a larger total filtration area with 2.5 m²/PE (1.5m² and 1 m² on the first upper and second lower stage respectively) but a foot print reduced to 1.5 m².PE-1. To favour aeration of the system, an intermediate natural aeration system is introduced at the interface between the first and second stage. The paper will present a study on a fullscale plant (Saint Michel l'Observatoire, 175 PE, France) running at full load in which different materials (sand, pozzolana of different particle size) were tested at the second stage. The aim was to identify the best materials to use to guarantee performance and avoid clogging on this unplanted and buried stage. The study consisted in measuring hydraulic conditions (inlet/outlet flows, infiltration rates, tracer experiments) correlated with 24h composite samples assessments. The results shows that such systems, if well designed, can guarantee an outlet quality of 35 mg.L-1 in SS, 125 mg.L-1 in COD, 25 mg.L-1 in BOD and 20 mg/L in KN with a total foot print of 1.5 m².PE-1. The paper will present the design recommendations and the limits of the systems taking into account a larger experience gathered on different existing plants (e.g. Chorges Bifilter®, 2 150 P.E, France).

[Departement_IRSTEA]Ecotechnologies [TR1_IRSTEA]TED [Axe_IRSTEA]TED-EPURE | International audience | Oxygen renewal, as a prominent phenomenon for aerobic bacteria activity, deeply impacts VFCW treatment efficiency. We introduce MIGRA, a new model able to simulate oxygen transfer in VFCW. It is based on a realistic two-phase flow module, that allows us to describe various loading sequences, and a transport module. The multi-component transport module is able to deal with convection/diffusion phenomena, inter-phase (air-water) mass exchange, and first-order kinetics. It is validated with analytical solutions and data from an experimental VFCW (column). We show the benefits of a two-phase flow modeling using a comparison with HYDRUS.

[Departement_IRSTEA]Ecotechnologies [TR1_IRSTEA]TED [Axe_IRSTEA]TED-EPURE | International audience | We develop an original solid respirometric method to measure the biodegradation rates of COD and ammonium at different depths of a Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland (VFCW). The method is developed for a matrix operated under unsaturated conditions. The oxygen demand is measured versus time in a gas passing through a reactor containing a mixture of an organic matrix mixed with a bulking agent (wood). For the measurement of the nitrification rate, a solution of ammonia and hydrogenocarbonates is spread on the sample. We ran 15 experiments on different matrices with variable organic matter contents (sludge, VFCW gravels and sand). Within this paper we present the overall methodology, the factors that allow improving the accuracy (number of duplicates, blank, sample volume, bulking agent volume, gas flow, etc.) and the nitrification rates that were obtained.
