This contribution critically reviews the state of knowledge on interactions of natural colloids
and engineered nanoparticles with natural dissolved organic materials (DOM). These …

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

The extensive use of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nano-TiO2) in many consumer products
has raised concerns about possible risks to the environment. The magnitude of the threat …

An analogous study to 2: 1 type montmorillonite [Tombácz, E., Szekeres, M., 2004. Colloidal
behavior of aqueous montmorillonite suspensions: the specific role of pH in the presence of …

The pH-dependent adsorption of humic acid (HA) on magnetite and its effect on the surface
charging and the aggregation of oxide particles were investigated. HA was extracted from …

A discussion of the adsorption of inorganics from aqueous solution on inorganic adsorbents.
It emphasizes the relationship between adsorption and surface charging, highlighting simple …

The stability behavior of Na–montmorillonite colloids has been studied by combining the
analysis of their surface charge properties and time-resolved dynamic light scattering …

Nanoparticles are ubiquitous in environment and are potentially important in many
environmental processes such as sorption, coprecipitation, redox reactions, and dissolution …

A geochemical survey of the northwestern part of the Thailand Gulf (Inner Gulf) was carried
out in order to define concentrations and distribution patterns of selected heavy metals (V …

Aggregation and dispersion of mineral particles spontaneously take place under changing
environmental conditions in natural systems. The structure of particle network in soils, the …
