Abstract: Clay particles under certain physico-chemical and hydrodynamic conditions can form agglomerates after passing through a filtering system, which favours clogging of the emitters. The main factors interfering with the aggregation potential of clay particles are… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Previous work has shown that about 10% of total clay-bound Fe(III) in unaltered nontronite NAu-1 is bioreducible, although it remains unclear how much of the bioreducible Fe pool persists after repeated oscillations between anoxic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d2ra01020h
Abstract: Although smectite-type clays are used as heterogeneous media for photofunctional guest molecules, the guest species are limited to cationic or polar molecules because of the intrinsic negative electric charges of clay particles. Nevertheless, in this… read more here.
