Settling Behaviors of Microplastic Disks in the Acceleration Processes in Stagnant Water

Proceedings of the IAHR World Congress 2013
Yang Ge, Yang Ge, Wenming Zhang

Summary

This IAHR-affiliated study examined the settling behavior of disk-shaped microplastic particles in the acceleration phase in stagnant water, contributing experimental data on the hydrodynamics of non-spherical plastic particles in freshwater environments. Understanding how different microplastic shapes sink is essential for modeling their transport and deposition in rivers and lakes.

The International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), founded in 1935, is a worldwide independent organisation of engineers and water specialists working in fields related to the hydro-environmental sciences and their practical application.
