This powerpoint presentation begins by providing background information on nanoparticles, risks posed by nanomaterials, and their impacts on water treatment. Nanoparticle aggregation, mobility in porous media, filtrate composition, and SEM imagery of effluent materials are outlined with conclusions being that: nanoparticles are present in filtrate from
conventional granular media filters at
water treatment systems;
nanoparticles do aggregate under
conditions typical of many aqueous
systems
dependent on surface chemistry, unknown aggregation efficiency, and
generation of nanoparticles following filtration; and, nanoparticles are not inherently more
mobile in porous media.
Includes tables, figures.
