We developed a method for efficient entrapment and retention of ENM in solid porous media of quartz sand with grain size of 300–500 μm used as a simple model of soil and studied the transport properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, silica and gold nanoparticles through the sand-packed column by UV–vis and fluorescent spectroscopy. The treatment of ENM-contaminated porous media with a mixture of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, cationic poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and anionic poly(acrylic acid) sodium salt, dissolved in NaCl solution followed by dilution in the column results in strong electrostatic interaction between the polyelectrolytes and a formation of inter-polyelectrolyte complexes (IPEC) that induce flocculation of ENM and adsorption to the surface of sand. The method demonstrates excellent ENM entrapment efficiency (>90%) and high capacity of several grams of ENM per 1 g of polyelectrolytes. The IPEC network formed after the treatment also serves as an efficient protection barrier for newly added ENM contaminants. The method is universal for various types of ENM (carbon ENM, metal and oxide nanoparticles) and equally efficient for distilled water, tap water, or lake water eluents., ファイル公開:2020-11-01}, pages = {567--576}, title = {Efficient prevention of nanomaterials transport in the porous media by treatment with polyelectrolytes}, volume = {210}, year = {2018} }
