Comparison of Aqueous Cu⁺², Pb⁺², and Zn⁺² Adsorption with Pyrolyzed Hazelnut Shells and a Commercially Produced High-Carbon Fly Ash

Creator:

Steigerwald, Jessica Marie

Abstract:

Contamination of stormwater with Cu⁺², Pb⁺², and Zn⁺² has become an important issue with recognition of the neurotoxic effects of these metal ions on aquatic life. Low levels of aqueous Cu⁺² disrupt olfactory functioning in endangered Pacific Northwest salmon, decreasing their ability to avoid predation. One common solution is stormwater...

Comparison of Experimentally-determined and Model-estimated Attachment Efficiency for Predicting Nanoparticle Aggregation

Creator:

Kennard, Jasmin J.

Abstract:

The widespread use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in industrial applications and consumer products makes their release to the environment inevitable. Understanding the aggregation behavior of ENPs is crucial to understanding their fate, transport and toxicology in aquatic systems. This study investigated the comparability of experimentally-determined and model-estimated attachment efficiencies for...
