Correlation equation for predicting single-collector efficiency in physicochemical filtration in saturated porous media.

TL;DR: The resulting equation overcomes the limitations of current approaches and shows remarkable agreement with exact theoretical predictions of the single-collector efficiency over a wide range of conditions commonly encountered in natural and engineered aquatic systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deviation from the classical colloid filtration theory in the presence of repulsive DLVO interactions.

TL;DR: A dual deposition mode model is presented which considers the combined influence of "fast" and "slow" particle deposition and is shown to adequately describe both the spatial distribution of particles in the packed bed and the suspended particle concentration at the column effluent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breakdown of colloid filtration theory: role of the secondary energy minimum and surface charge heterogeneities.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the mechanisms and causes of deviation from the classical colloid filtration theory in the presence of repulsive Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colloid Transport and Retention in Unsaturated Porous Media: A Review of Interface-, Collector-, and Pore-Scale Processes and Models

TL;DR: A review of colloid transport and retention at the interface, collector, and pore scales can be found in this article, where the potential for colloid attachment in the presence of hydrodynamic forces and torques is determined from a balance of applied and adhesive torques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling microbial transport in porous media: Traditional approaches and recent developments

TL;DR: Traditional modeling approaches used to predict the migration and removal of microorganisms in saturated porous media are systematically evaluated and recently proposed improvements to the most commonly used filtration model are discussed, with particular consideration of straining and microbe motility.
