Highly efficient in removal of
- Inorganic compounds like Arsenic, Barium, Chromium, Selenium, Uranium, Copper, Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Nickel (and many other heavy metals), sulphates, nitrates,perchlorates, etc.
- Organic compounds like polychlorinated methanes, ethanes, ethenes, benzenes, etc
Properties of fe0 nanoparticles
- High redox potential (electron donor)
- High surface area (20-25 m2/g)
- Narrow particle size distribution (average of 50 nm) allowing the particles to migrate in groundwater conditions
- Pyrophoric or air-stable character (powder or aqueous dispersion)
- Magnetically separable
- High-reactivity and long-term performance
- Possibility to combine various properties in composite materials
- Ideal for remediation of large areas or for construction of permeable reactive barriers
- Environmentally friendly material
- Low cost comparing to conventional technologies
Application example
