چکیده

Ferromagnetic carbon-coated Fe nanoparticles (core size of 15 nm, saturated magnetization of Ms=218 emu g(-1) and coercivity of Hc=62 Oe), fabricated at a mild temperature, demonstrate a strong ability to effectively remove more than 95 wt% of Cr(VI) in waste water via carbon shell physical adsorption, which is much higher than the commercially available Fe NPs.

Carbothermal synthesis of carbon-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron particles for the remediation of hexavalent chromium.

Nanoscale, zero-valent iron is a promising reagent for in situ reduction of a variety of subsurface contaminants, but its utility in full-scale remediation projects is limited by material costs. Iron nanoparticles (20-100 nm diameter) supported on carbon (C-Fe0) were synthesized by reacting iron salts, adsorbed or impregnated from aqueous solutions onto 80 m2/g carbon black, at 600-800 degrees ...

ABIOTIC AND BIOTIC FACTORS AFFECTING CONTAMINANT TRANSFORMATION AT IRON OXIDE SURFACES (Cosponsored with the Division of Geochemistry)

Introduction The current interest in iron/iron oxide nanoparticles for remediation applications can be partly attributed to their presumed ease of injection and faster reactivity. However, several processes can limit their effectiveness for degrading contaminants in groundwater include aging, aggregation and deposition. Under environmental conditions, nanoparticles with Fe(0) cores persist beca...

Use of iron-based technologies in contaminated land and groundwater remediation: a review.

Reactions involving iron play a major role in the environmental cycling of a wide range of important organic, inorganic and radioactive contaminants. Consequently, a range of environmental clean-up technologies have been proposed or developed which utilise iron chemistry to remediate contaminated land and surface and subsurface waters, e.g. the use of injected zero zero-valent iron nanoparticle...
