nowdays,  iron  nanoparticles  due  to  their  unique  characteristics  are used  in  all  of  sciences  and  technology.  these  nano  particles  due  to their  electrical, magnetic,  optical  and  catalytic  properties  and  having high  area  and  activity  that  is  promped  by  their  small  size  and most importantly  many  scientists  from  the  entire  world  are  interested  in their  ...

Background: In this research, the decomposition of Aroclor 1254, including 20 kinds of poly chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), in real waste transformer oil in the presence of PEG1000, NaOH, zero valent iron and H2O by microwave (MW) irradiation was studied. Methods: Central composites design (CCD) method was carried out for experimental design. The effects of microwave power levels (200- 1000 W), ...

conclusions briefly, the current study represents a novel method to eliminate temephos as an organophosphate compound from water samples with modified zero-valent iron nanoparticles. background temephos is an organophosphate pesticide used as larvicide in the environment. although not extremely hazardous, it can be risky for human health in the moderate concentrations. objectives this study inv...

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...

Zero-valent iron nanoparticles are used for the degradation of organic compounds and the immobilization of metals and metalloids. The lack of information on the effect of nZVI in freshwater system necessitated the risk assessment of zero-valent iron nanoparticles in lake water environment. The present study deals with the stability and fate of synthesized zero-valent iron nanoparticles in the u...

Microbial reduction of perchlorate in the presence of zero-valent iron was examined in both batch and column reactors to assess the potential of iron as the electron donor for biological perchlorate reduction process. Iron-supported mixed cultures completely removed 65 mg/L of perchlorate in batch reactors in 8 days. The removal rate was similar to that observed with hydrogen gas (5%) and aceta...

in recent years, the nanoscale zero-valent iron (nzvi) particles have been used successfully for the degradation of hydrocarboncompounds and remediation of other pollutants. nevertheless, as far as we know, there is no specific study on the improvement of thegeotechnical properties of contaminated soils with hydrocarbon compounds by nzvi. this study used nzvi particles to remove gasoil in a cla...
