Fracture Size Controls on Diffusion Rate Into Micro-Fractures

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Markus Flury
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Dissolution of uranium minerals within fractures has been found to be a diffusion rate limited process; thus, diffusive mass transfer in sediment micro-factures significantly affects the fate and…

Fate of Cosmetic Microbeads and Silver Nanoparticles in Soils

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Markus Flury
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Plastic microbeads and silver nanoparticles contained in cosmetic and health care products usually end up in our household waste water, which will then be treated in a waste water treatment plant…

Limited Scope EMSL Proposal: Nano- and Microplastic Accumulation at Roots

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Markus Flury
Project type
Limited Scope
The purpose of this limited scope proposal is to conduct a series of confocal and super resolution fluorescence microscopy experiments in response to reviewers’ comments for a submitted manuscript…

Fate and Transport of Nano- and Microplastic in Terrestrial Ecosystems

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Markus Flury
Project type
Exploratory Research
Nano- and microplastics are ubiquitous in many consumer products and released to the environment through rub-off or improperly disposed waste. Little is known about quantity, distribution, and fate…

Visualization of Colloid Transport in Hanford Sediments

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Markus Flury
Project type
Capability Research
Abstract: There is strong indication that transport of radionuclides can be facilitated via colloids. Such colloid-facilitated transport is likely to occur below the waste tanks at the Hanford site,…
