Investigation of the kinetics of oil-suspended particulate matter aggregation.
Marine Pollution Bulletin 2013 November 16
The process of oil-suspended particulate matter aggregation (OSA) has been recognized by the oil spill remediation community to enhance the natural cleansing of oiled shorelines. A laboratory study was conducted to investigate the kinetics of OSA formation under various mixing intensities using the standard reference material 1941b and Arabian heavy crude oil. The results showed that formation of OSAs increased exponentially with mixing time and reached a maximum within 5h. The maximum oil trapping efficiency increased from 24% to 47%, and the required shaking time decreased from 4.5 to 1.2h as the sediment concentration and mixing energy increased. The maximum oil-to-sediment ratio reached 0.24-0.68 g oil/g sediment within 5h. Most of the formed OSAs were solid OSAs and single droplet OSAs with low mixing energies, and multi-droplet OSAs with high mixing energies. The sizes of the dispersed oil droplets and OSAs were also investigated.
