Contents Notes |
Collected (by vacuuming) and characterized particulate from the surface of highway pavement. Measured particle size distribution, specific gravity (density), surface area, and metals concentrations. Found that particle-specific surface area increased with decreasing particle size, but that the total particle surface area decreased with decreasing particle size. Found that despite the correlation between decreasing particle size and increasing copper concentration, most of the metal mass in the collected sediments was associated with the coarse to mid-range size particles (for copper, generally the 300 micron diameter particles and smaller.) |
