Application and development of zero-valent iron (ZVI) for groundwater and wastewater treatment

Application of nanoscale zero valent iron (NZVI) for groundwater remediation in Europe.

PURPOSE Nanoscale zero valent iron (NZVI) is emerging as a new option for the treatment of contaminated soil and groundwater targeting mainly chlorinated organic contaminants (e.g., solvents, pesticides) and inorganic anions or metals. The purpose of this article is to give a short overview of the practical experience with NZVI applications in Europe and to present a comparison to the situation...

Zero Valent Iron (ZVI) nanocomposite for the removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution

S. Ponmani and C. Udayasoorian Abstract -A new class of nano scale zero valent iron (nZVI) particles supported on activated carbon (AC) were synthesized and the feasibility of using nanocomposite (AC+nZVI) for the removal of Cr(VI) in water was investigated through laboratory batch test. Nanocomposite was synthesized by impregnating carbon with ferrous sulfate followed by chemical reduction wit...

High-level arsenite removal from groundwater by zero-valent iron.

The objectives of this study were to conduct batch and column studies to (i) assess the effectiveness of zero-valent iron for arsenic remediation in groundwater, (ii) determine removal mechanisms of arsenic, and (iii) evaluate implications of these processes with regard to the stability of arsenic and long-term remedial performance of the permeable reactive barrier (PRB) technology. A high conc...

modified zero valent iron (zvi) nanoparticles for removal of manganese from water

manganese is one of the significant raw materials for various industries and most difficult element to remove from water because of its high solubility. the treatment of mn (ii) contained wastewater is stringent for environmental preservations. in the present study adsorption of mn2+ on zero-valent iron nanoparticles synthesized by chemical reduction process and modified with phosphate coating ...
