| Abstract: |
| Graphene oxide (GO) is a new nanomaterial rich in active functional sites, and may greatly influence heavy metal movements in the media. In this study, the effects of GO on lead[Pb (Ⅱ) ] transport in saturated porous media were investigated. Batch experiments showed that GO had high adsorption capacity of Pb (Ⅱ), compared with quartz sand. In saturated porous media, GO showed high mobility. However, the presence of Pb (Ⅱ) reduced the GO mobility. By contrast, Pb (Ⅱ) mobility was very low, but was promoted by GO. Lead (Ⅱ) preloaded in sand column was effectively mobilized by GO solution. The released Pb (Ⅱ) was significantly correlated with GO inputs (R2 >0.95). In summary, Pb reduced GO mobility, whereas GO promoted Pb transport in saturated porous media. |
