Rapid settling of nanoparticles due to heteroaggregation with suspended sediment.

Abstract:

:Sedimentation of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) has been studied mainly in artificial media and stagnant systems mimicking natural waters. This neglects the role of turbulence and heteroaggregation with sediment. The authors studied the apparent sedimentation rates of selected ENPs (cerium dioxide [CeO2 ], polyvinylpyrrolidone-capped silver [PVP-Ag], and silica-coated silver [SiO2 -Ag]) in agitated sediment-water systems resembling fresh, estuarine, and marine waters. Experiments were designed to mimic low energy and periodically resuspended sediment water systems (14 d), followed by a long-term aging, resuspension, and settling phase (6 months), as would occur in receiving shallow lakes. The ENPs in systems with periodical resuspension of sediment were removed with sedimentation rates between 0.14 m/d and 0.50 m/d. The sedimentation rates did not vary much among ENP type, salinity, and aging time, which is attributed to the capture of ENPs in sediment flocks. The sedimentation rates were 1 to 2 orders of magnitude higher than those reported for aggregation-sedimentation in stagnant systems without suspended sediment. Heteroaggregation rates were estimated and ranged between 0.151 L/mg/d and 0.547 L/mg/d, which is up to 29 times higher than those reported for natural colloids under quiescent settling conditions. The authors conclude that rapid scavenging and sedimentation drives removal of ENPs from the water column.
