Abstract
The environmental implications of tire wear particles (TWPs) have been extensively studied. One notable concern associated with nano-sized TWPs is their potential role as carriers that enhance the spread of co-occurring pollutants, especially in the context of aging processes. This study demonstrated how exposure to acid, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, or ozone (O3) induced alterations in the physico-chemical properties of TWPs, consequently increasing their mobility within saturated sand environments. In cotransport cases, both original TWPs and aged TWPs inhibited the transport of Cd2+ and Ni2+ in different degrees, whereas no obvious changes in their intrinsic mobilities. The contaminant-mobilizing ability of TWPs followed the order of original TWPs/UV-TWPs < H+-TWPs < O3-TWPs. Experimental results and model-based analyses indicated the important role of mobility, adsorption affinity and desorption hysteresis in the cotransport of TWPs and heavy metals. In comparison with original TWPs, the adsorption affinity of H+-TWPs and O3-TWPs for Cd2+/Ni2+ decreased, while that of UV-TWPs was similar to original TWPs. Simultaneously, the desorption rates of TWPs decreased to different extents after aging. The results of this study provide valuable insights on the fate of aged TWPs and their interactions with heavy metals in the natural environment, and help assess the environmental behavior and contaminant mobilization capacity of TWPs, especially considering the distinct effects of different aging processes. It is imperative to emphasise the necessity for targeted management strategies to transport the environmental impacts of TWPs, particularly as they age and interact with heavy metals.
期刊介绍:
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
