In this paper, we characterize the filtration and deposition profiles of a recombinant analog of Norwalk virus, an important waterborne pathogen, in packed beds of saturated quartz sand under both 'clean-bed' and 'dirty-bed' conditions. Under clean-bed conditions with NaCl as the electrolyte, the retained Norwalk virus particles decline like a power-law with depth. The power-law decay in retained particle concentration is consistent with the predictions of a recently proposed filtration model which assumes that microscale heterogeneity leads to particle filtration length scales of all sizes; i.e. the filtration is fractal in nature. However, under dirty-bed conditions with either ground water or wastewater as the pore fluid, the deposited Norwalk virus particles profiles are considerably more complex. Analysis of these data using both the traditional filtration model and the fractal filtration model suggests that, under dirty-bed conditions, macroscale heterogeneity dominates virus removal rates.
