Recent recognition of colloid and colloida-ssociated transport of strongly sorbing
contaminants in fractured rocks highlights the importance of exploring the transport behavior …

The rate and extent of transport of macromolecules and other solutes into cellulosic
materials and fibers have important applications in such fields as papermaking, textiles …

A conceptual mathematical model was developed to describe the simultaneous transport
(cotransport) of viruses and colloids in three-dimensional, water saturated, homogeneous …

This study is focused on Pseudomonas putida bacteria transport in porous media in the
presence of suspended kaolinite clay particles. Experiments were performed with bacteria …

In this work we derive expressions for the effective velocity and effective dispersion
coefficient for finite-sized spherical particles with neutral buoyancy flowing within a water …

This study investigates the fate and transport of pathogens introduced by artificial
groundwater recharge at the Nardò fractured aquifer in the Salento area, Italy. Wastewater …

The impact of particle size on colloid transport was explored in two saturated, naturally
discrete fractured chalk cores, with equivalent hydraulic apertures of 183 and 380 μm …

Colloids and bacteria (microorganisms) naturally exist in groundwater aquifers and can
significantly impact contaminant migration rates. A conceptual model is first developed to …

This study conducted saturated column experiments to systematically investigate deposition
of 1 μm positively charged polystyrene latex micro-colloids (representing microplastic …

A particle tracking model is developed to simulate the transport of variably sized colloids in a
fracture with a spatially variable aperture. The aperture of the fracture is treated as a …
