The ever-increasing use of engineered nanomaterials will lead to heightened levels of these
materials in the environment. The present review aims to provide a comprehensive overview …

Understanding and predicting colloid transport and retention in water‐saturated porous
media is important for the protection of human and ecological health. Early applications of …

Recent field and laboratory experiments have identified colloid-facilitated transport of
contaminants as an important mechanism of contaminant migration through groundwater …

A conceptual model for colloid transport is developed that accounts for colloid attachment,
straining, and exclusion. Colloid attachment and detachment is modeled using first-order …

The third edition of this besteller covers the latest advancements in this rapidly growing field.
Focusing on analyses and critical evaluation of the subject, this new edition reviews the …

Laboratory-scale colloidal fouling tests, comparing the fouling behavior of cellulose acetate
and aromatic polyamide thin-film composite reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, are …

Publisher Summary It is noted that colloidal particles can be effectively transported through
subsurface porous media under certain hydrogeochemical conditions. If present in large …

In this review article, the authors present up-to-date developments on experimental,
modeling and field studies on the role of subsurface colloidal fines on contaminant transport …

A growing body of experimental evidence suggests that the deposition behavior of microbial
particles (eg, bacteria and viruses) is inconsistent with the classical colloid filtration theory …

The mechanisms and causes of deviation from the classical colloid filtration theory (CFT) in
the presence of repulsive Derjaguin− Landau− Verwey− Overbeek (DLVO) interactions were …
