Influence of organic carbon loading, sediment associated metal oxide content and sediment grain size distributions upon Cryptosporidium parvum removal during riverbank filtration operations, Sonoma County, CA
TLDR
Although the grain-surface metal oxides were found to have a high colloid-removal capacity, this study suggested that any major changes within the watershed that would result in long-term alterations in either the quantity and (or) the character of the river's DOC could alter the effectiveness of pathogen removal during RBF operations.About:

Transport and Fate of Microbial Pathogens in Agricultural Settings
Scott A. Bradford,Verónica L. Morales,Wei Zhang,Ronald W. Harvey,Aaron I. Packman,Arvind Mohanram,Claire Welty +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a number of transport pathways, processes, factors, and mathematical models often are needed to describe pathogen fate in agricultural settings, and the level of complexity is dramatically enhanced by soil heterogeneity, as well as by temporal variability in temperature, water inputs, and pathogen sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colloid Adhesive Parameters for Chemically Heterogeneous Porous Media
TL;DR: The model results show that the PDFs of colloid adhesive parameters at the REA scale were sensitive to the size of the colloid and the heterogeneity, the charge and number of grid cells, and the ionic strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling colloid and microorganism transport and release with transients in solution ionic strength
TL;DR: A calibrated model provided a satisfactory description of the observed release behavior for a range of colloid types and sizes and a general theoretical foundation to develop predictions for the influence of solution chemistry on the transport, retention, and release of colloids.

Inorganic Geochemistry and Redox Dynamics in Bank Filtration Settings
TL;DR: This review presents the four main geochemical processes relevant for inorganic geochemistry, with a focus on iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn), during bank filtration: reduction near the bank, oxidation near the production well, carbonate dissolution, and sorption to aquifer materials.

Removal of polystyrene microplastic spheres by alum-based coagulation-flocculation-sedimentation (CFS) treatment of surface waters
TL;DR: In this paper, the removal of carboxylated polystyrene (PS) microspheres in a wide size range (3, 6, 25, 45, and 90μm) in two types of real surface waters (Grand River and Lake Erie water) that are sources for full-scale drinking water treatment plants was investigated.

Heat as a Ground-Water Tracer at the Russian River RBF Facility, Sonoma County, California
TL;DR: In this article, water levels and seasonal temperatures were used to estimate streambed hydraulic conductivities and water fluxes from 3 observation wells near the Russian River RBF facility, north of Forestville, Sonoma County, CA.

Fate of Anionic Surfactants in a 38 ML∕Day UASB-Based Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant: Case Study
TL;DR: In this paper, a 15-month monitoring study on the anionic surfactants (AS) at the 38 ML∕day up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB)-based sewage treatment plant (STP) is described.

Water-Quality Data for the Lower Russian River Basin, Sonoma County, California, 2003-2004
TL;DR: In 2003, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Sonoma County Water Agency, began a study to determine the chemical, microbiological, and isotopic composition of the surface water and ground water in selected areas of the Lower Russian River Basin this article.
