Retention and transport behavior of microplastic particles in water-saturated porous media

Yuhao Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that the retention and migration of microplastics in porous media are influenced by their hydrodynamic size, with PS50 showing migration rates greater than 85% in all conditions, while PS500 often exhibits slower migration velocities and higher attachment efficiencies. The chemical properties of the solution have significant effects on the retention and transport of microplastics, consistent with the predictions of DLVO theory.

Effect of surfactants on the transport of polyethylene and polypropylene microplastics in porous media

Yanji Jiang et al.

Summary: The research investigates the transport behavior of microplastics in porous media in the presence of surfactants. The concentration of surfactants affects the transport abilities of microplastics, while factors such as ionic strength, pH, and flow rate also play a role in influencing the migration behavior of microplastics.

Transport of nanoparticles in porous media and its effects on the co-existing pollutants

Xin Ling et al.

Summary: Nanomaterials are widely used due to their superior properties, but their release and transport in the environment pose risks to aquatic ecosystems. Studies have shown that the transport of NPs in porous media is influenced by various factors, including NP characteristics, porous media properties, and water flow. Further research is needed to explore the transport and interaction of NPs in natural porous media, as well as the coupling mechanisms in real environmental conditions.

Reactive-transport modelling of Enterococcus faecalis JH2-2 passage through water saturated sediment columns

Aparna Chandrasekar et al.

Summary: The reuse of treated wastewater is a common practice to address global water scarcity issues, but potential health risks from opportunistic pathogens and Enterococci spread in the subsoil should be considered. This study used a combined modelling and experimental approach to understand pathogen dissemination and investigate the impact of quartz sediment and wastewater characteristics on Enterococcus faecalis JH2?2 spread. The research findings provide insights for water resource treatment and management.
