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 …

An understanding of the transport and survival of microbial pathogens (pathogens hereafter)
in agricultural settings is needed to assess the risk of pathogen contamination to water and …

Transport characteristics of fragmental polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET) microplastics
in porous media were elucidated via column experiments under a series combination of …

Agricultural soils have been identified as sinks for microplastic fibers; however, little
information is available on their long-term fate in these soils. In this study, polyester and …

Current understanding on the fate and behavior of microplastics (MPs) in complex soil
media remains inadequate. We characterized the aging and hetero-aggregation of a MP …

Nanoparticles are being used in broad range of applications; therefore, these materials
probably will enter the environment during their life cycle. The objective of the present study …

Environmental applications of nanoparticles (NP) increasingly result in widespread NP
distribution within porous media where they are subject to various concurrent transport …

Nanotechnology, an emerging technology, has witnessed rapid development in production
and application. Engineered nanomaterials revolutionize the industry due to their unique …

Saturated sand-packed column experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of
physicochemical factors on the transport and retention of surfactant stabilized silver …

The role of gravitational force on colloid transport in water-saturated columns packed with
