Nano-scale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is one of the most intensively studied materials for
environmental cleanup uses over the past 20 years or so. Freshly prepared nZVI is highly …

The global plastic contamination is one of the major challenges facing mankind as plastic is
ubiquitously present in all environmental compartments. In contrast to freshwater and marine …

The presence of microplastics in various abiotic and biotic matrices has sought the attention
of researchers across the globe. Despite being subsurface, groundwater is also reported to …

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 …

Saturated soil column experiments were conducted to explore the influence of colloid size
and soil grain size distribution characteristics on the transport and fate of colloid particles in …

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

To investigate the effect of pH on nanoparticle aggregation and transport in porous media,
we quantified nanoparticle transport in two-dimensional structures. Titania was used as a …

Cylindrical colloidal-silver-impregnated ceramic filters for household (point-of-use) water
treatment were manufactured and tested for performance in the laboratory with respect to …

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 stability of TiO2 nanoparticles in soil suspensions and their transport behavior through
saturated homogeneous soil columns were studied. The results showed that TiO2 could …
