چکیده
background contamination of water resources with nitrate is a serious environmental problem in many regions of the world. in addition, this problem has been observed in some regions of iran. as nitrate is threatening for human health and environment, it must be decreased to standard levels in drinking water. objectives the purpose of this research was to model the nitrate removal from water by nano-scaled zero-valent iron (nzvi) using response surface methodology and to investigate the effects of the nzvi dose, nitrate concentration, contact time, and ionic strength on removal efficiency. materials and methods box-behnken design was used. response surface methodology was used for modeling nitrate removal. all experiments were conducted according to standard methods. important assessed parameters included nzvi dose (0.5-2 g/l), nitrate concentration (50-150 mg/l), contact time (15-60 minutes), and ionic strength (1000-5000 μmho/cm). results results indicated that there was a direct association between nitrate removal efficiency and time and nzvi dosage. therefore, increasing of the contact time or nzvi dose would increase nitrate removal. on the other hand, the nitrate removal was decreased when ionic strength and initial concentration were increased. the analysis of variance revealed that the proposed regression model could be appropriately used to design experiments. the model correlation coefficient was 0.9992 and the adjusted value was 0.9982. conclusions response surface methodology and box-behnken design were powerful statistical tools for navigating nitrate reduction process. the results showed that a high percentage of nitrate were reduced by nzvi and this method might be efficiently used for nitrate removal from water.
