Exploring how organic matter controls structural transformations in natural aquatic nanocolloidal dispersions.
The response of the dispersion nanostructure of surface river bed sediment to the controlled removal and readdition of natural organic matter (NOM), in the absence and presence of background electrolyte, was examined using the technique of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Partial NOM removal induced aggregation of the mineral particles, but more extensive NOM removal restored colloidal st...
متن کاملMechanisms of viscosity increase for nanocolloidal dispersions.
An EMD model for nanocolloidal dispersions considering the interaction between atoms within solid particles is developed for viscosity calculation and studying the effect of the particle size and volume fraction. Strong oscillations are observed in the pressure tensor autocorrelation function. Elimination of this oscillation is achieved by adjusting the potential among atoms of nanoparticles to...
متن کاملRemoval of natural organic matter from aqueous solutions by electrocoagulation
Natural organic matter (NOM) affects some qualitative parameters of water such as color. In addition, it can deteriorate the performance of water treatment process including coagulation, adsorption, and membranes. NOM also reacts with chlorine in the chlorination process and may form disinfection by-products. The present study was carried out in laboratory-scale in a batch system using a cylind...
متن کاملTransformation of CuO Nanoparticles in the Aquatic Environment: Influence of pH, Electrolytes and Natural Organic Matter
Many studies have shown the effect of solution chemistry on the environmental behavior of metal-based nanoparticles (NPs), except CuO NPs. Here, we investigated the agglomeration, sedimentation, dissolution, and speciation of CuO NPs by varying pH, ionic strength, ionic valence, and natural organic matter (NOM). The results showed that as the pH moved away from 6, the size of CuO agglomerates d...
متن کاملExploring Adsorption of Natural Organic Matter from Natural Waters by Surface-modified Activated Carbons
Naturally-occurring organic material (NOM) in dissolved, colloidal and particulate forms is ubiquitous in surface and ground waters. NOM is a heterogeneous mixture of complex organic materials including humic substances, hydrophilic acids, proteins, lipids, carboxylic acids, polysaccharides, amino acids, and hydrocarbons [1]. The dissolved and colloidal forms (i.e., DOM) are the most problemati...
