Preparation, Characterization, and Applications of Polysaccharide-stabilized Metal Nanoparticles for Remediation of Chlorinated Solvents in Soils and Groundwater 

He, Feng (2007-12-15)
Removal of chlorinated solvents in groundwater and soils represents one of the most challenging environmental issues. Highly reactive palladized iron (Fe-Pd) nanoparticles offer the potential to migrate in the soil and ...

Process Control Factors for Continuous Microbial Perchlorate Reduction in the Presence of Zero-Valent Iron 

Arthur, Daniel (2011-05-11)
Water is a staple of civilization, and in the event of drinking water contamination the use of the contaminant’s source should be discontinued. Alternatively, a technology that can remove the contaminant from the water ...

Removal of Copper(II) and Lead(II) from Soils by Poly(Amidoamine) Dendrimers and Reductive Immobilization of Chromium(VI) by Stabilized Zero-Valent Iron Nanoparticles 

Xu, Yinhui (2006-08-15)
This research investigated the feasibility of using poly(amidoamine) PAMAM dendrimers for removal of copper(II) and lead(II) from soils, and using a new class of stabilized zero-valent iron (ZVI) nanoparticles for reductive ...

Sorption of Thorium Onto Subsurface Geomedia 

Melson, Nathan Hunter (2011-11-17)
Radionuclide contamination has been a significant environmental problem at US Department of Energy (USDOE) sites for many years. In addition, a final disposal solution for radioactive waste, such as deep geological ...

Theromdynamics of Steroid Estrogen Sorption to Activated Sludge 

Xu, Kai (2008-12-15)
Sorption is an important mechanism for removal of 17a-ethinylestradiol (EE2) in biological wastewater treatment. In an effort to deepen our understanding of this process, this work investigated the underlying thermodynamic ...
