Continuous runoff quality monitoring was conducted for one month at urban highway drainage with an area of 8.4 ha. Dynamic change of suspended solids and heavy metal concentrations were investigated during first flush periods, taking the particle size distribution into consideration. Except for Pb, the concentrations of TSS and heavy metals in runoff were within the range of the EMC reported in recent highway runoff research. Particle-bound heavy metals (Zn, Pb, and Cu) accounted for more significant pollutant loads than soluble fractions. Their content decreased with increasing total SS concentration in runoff samples. The results of particle size distribution (PSD) analysis of runoff samples indicate that high TSS concentration samples contained coarser particles. Based on the PSD results, a stepwise wash-off phenomenon of TSS under varying runoff rate conditions was explained by the different washoff behavior of fine (< 20 mm) and coarser particles.

The paper examines the importance of size distribution of the influent suspension on the performance of deep bed filters and its significance with regard to modelling. Experiments were carried out under a variety of conditions using suspensions which were identical in every respect apart from their size distribution. The results indicate that the presence of coarse particles does increase the removal of fine particles. Deposition of fine particles leads to a greater headloss than deposition of large particles. Changes in size distribution with time and depth play an important role in determining the behaviour of a filter, and models of both removal and headloss development must take account of this.

The particle size distribution and the reflectance properties of silvered glass mirrors exposed in an outdoor environment have been measured to determine the separate effects of natural soiling and natural cleaning (wind and rain). The wavelength dependent diffuse reflectance was correlated with the particle size distribution function for mirrors exposed to increasing periods of outdoor exposure. These measurements have indicated the significant role of small particles (radii ≲ 5 μm) in the soiling of exposed mirrors and in the subsequent reflectance loss over the solar spectrum.

AbstractThe impacts of replacing various levels of skim milk powder with soy flour (0%, 7%, and 14.5% w/w), as well as the quantity of emulsifier (mono-glyceride, 0 and 1.5% w/w) on particle size distribution, rheological, textural, thermal, and sensory properties of sesame paste white compound chocolate were studied. Enhancing the percentage of soy flour along with concurrent decrease of milk powder, increased particle size distribution parameters, as D90 increased from 9.33 to 16.6 (μm). The outcomes indicated that different contents of soy flour affected the hardness along with having greater impact on the samples containing emulsifier. Adding mono-glyceride to chocolate resulted in an excessive reduction in the hardness and also in particle size distribution parameters. Values of Casson plastic viscosity ranged from 2.46 to 5.8 (Pa.s), the Casson yield values and apparent viscosity varied between 9.95 and 111.72 (Pa), and 6.3 and 12.1(Pa.s), respectively. Moreover, analyzing the data demonstrated that soy flour had notable impact on the sensory properties of the samples. Also, soy flour and emulsifier could be manipulated for achieving the desirable rheological properties of sesame paste white compound chocolate.
