AI Technical Summary
The rapid growth of the surface passivation layer in nano-zero-valent iron in tailings results in a short active window period, which cannot match the long-term release cycle of arsenic in tailings. Existing technologies cannot effectively solve this contradiction.
By real-time monitoring of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy characteristics of the passivation layer, calculating the characteristic resonant frequency and minimum breakdown voltage, applying a sinusoidal AC voltage when the passivation layer grows to a specific thickness, constructing a conductive channel using dielectric breakdown, and stabilizing the channel through a DC reduction pulse, the in-situ activation of the passivation layer and the periodic recovery of material activity are achieved.
The active window of nano-zero-valent iron was extended to match the arsenic release cycle, improving the flexibility and efficiency of the remediation process and reducing energy consumption and the risk of secondary pollution.
