Impact of heavy metal cations on deposition and release of clay colloids in saturated porous media
Vadose Zone Journal, 2023 While the facilitated transport of heavy metals by colloids such as clay particles has been widely recognized, the influence of heavy metals on transport of the colloids has received much less attention.

Colloid-Facilitated Plutonium Transport in Saturated Alluvium [PDF]
, 2004 Natural groundwater colloids have been recognized as possible agents for enhancing the subsurface transport of strongly-sorbing radionuclides. To evaluate this mechanism, packed-bed column experiments were conducted comparing the simultaneous transport of dissolved plutonium (Pu), Pu sorbed onto natural colloids, 190-nm and 500-nm diameter fluorescent ...

Dispersible Colloid Facilitated Release of Organic Carbon From Two Contrasting Riparian Sediments
Frontiers in Water, 2020 In aqueous systems, including groundwater, nano-colloids (1–100 nm diameter) and small colloids (<450 nm diameter) provide a vast store of surfaces to which organic carbon (OC) can sorb, precluding its normal bioavailability. Because nanomaterials are

Colloid-Facilitated Transport of Radionuclides through the Vadose Zone [PDF]
, 2001 This project seeks to improve the basic understanding of the role of colloids in facilitating the transport of contaminants in the vadose zone. We focus on three major thrusts: (1) thermodynamic stability and mobility of colloids formed by reactions of sediments with highly alkaline tank waste solutions, (2) colloid-contaminant interactions, and (3) in
