AbstractIn the present study, hydrogen peroxide (HP) and persulfate (PS)-activated nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and zero-valent aluminum (nZVAl) heterogeneous treatment systems (nZVI/HP-PS and nZVAl/HP-PS) were investigated for the removal of 20 mg/L (88 μM) aqueous Bisphenol A (BPA). Oxidation with HP and PS in the absence of nanoparticles did not cause BPA degradation, whereas the nZVI/O

AbstractChromium (Cr) is a common toxic heavy metal that is widely used in all kinds of industries, causing a series of environmental problems. Nanoscale zero- valent iron (nZVI) is considered to be an ideal remediation material for contaminated soil, especially for heavy metal pollutants. As a material of low toxicity and good activity, nZVI has been widely applied in the in situ remediation of soil hexavalent chromium (Cr(vi)) with mobility and toxicity in recent years. In this paper, some current technologies for the preparation of nZVI are summarized and the remediation mechanism of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil is proposed. Five classified modified nZVI materials are introduced and their remediation processes in Cr(vi)-contaminated soil are summarized. Key factors affecting the remediation of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil by nZVI are studied. Interaction mechanisms between nZVI-based materials and Cr(vi) are explored. This study provides a comprehensive review of the nZVI materials for the remediation of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil, which is conducive to reducing soil pollution.

AbstractThe removal efficiency of two different types of peroxide addition, catalyzed hydrogen peroxide (CHP) and sodium percarbonate (SPC) were compared on a highly PAH-contaminated soil from a wood impregnation site. In an attempt to simulate real in situ reagents delivery, experiments have been carried out in acrylic columns. The main parameters affecting contaminant removal were the reagent’s temperature and the total addition of peroxide (g

AbstractThe efficacy of DDT-contaminated soil treatment with hydrogen peroxide and persulfate utilizing different activation aids and the chemicals combination with biosurfactant was evaluated. The addition of a supplementary activator was able to improve the degradation of total DDT with both the hydrogen peroxide and persulfate oxidation processes indicating a lack of available activator. Ferrous iron added gradually was effectively utilized in the oxidation system with gradual addition of hydrogen peroxide, while chelated metal iron addition promoted the oxidation with more stable persulfate. The treatment with solid carriers of hydrogen peroxide, either calcium peroxide or magnesium peroxide, can be an effective alternative to the liquid one resulting in a higher degradation level of the contaminant. Strong alkalization with elevated dosages of NaOH sustained the persulfate oxidation of DDT. The addition of biosurfactant, rhamnolipid-alginate complex obtained by biosynthesis of strain Pseudomonas sp. PS-17, and EDTA improved the degradation of DDT by both persulfate and hydrogen peroxide oxidation processes indicating that the combined application of chemical oxidants and biosurfactant at natural soil pH has prospects as an effective option for contaminated soil remediation.
