AI Technical Summary
Existing ball-milled micron-sized zero-valent iron (S-mZVIbm) tends to form a passivation layer when degrading chlorinated hydrocarbons in water, leading to decreased reactivity, easy particle aggregation, low electron utilization, and difficulty in achieving long-term remediation.
By utilizing the adsorption and complexation of Fe(II) released from the reaction of illite with S-mZVIbm and H2O, the iron core of S-mZVIbm particles is kept exposed, avoiding the formation of a passivation layer. The complexation reaction of ball-milled sulfides is enhanced by illite, thus maintaining the long-term reactivity of S-mZVIbm particles. The complexation reaction of ball-milled sulfide micron-sized zero-valent iron degrades chlorinated hydrocarbons in water by illite is enhanced, thus avoiding the formation of a passivation layer and maintaining the long-term reactivity of S-mZVIbm particles.
It significantly improves the degradation efficiency of S-mZVIbm for chlorinated hydrocarbons, shortens the remediation time, reduces costs, and has a simple process, uses environmentally friendly raw materials, and is easy to store.
