Abstract:
... S(IV)-based advanced oxidation process has been applied for contaminants remediation. However, as a traditional source of sulfite (SO₃²⁻), Na₂SO₃ is extremely soluble in water, resulting in a high concentration of SO₃²⁻ to quench the generated reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this work, CaSO₃ was introduced instead of Na₂SO₃ for its slow-released SO₃²⁻ ability and Fe(III)/CaSO₃ system was establi ...

Abstract:
... Over the past three decades, groundwater remediation using permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) has proven to be effective. The majority of installed PRBs uses metallic iron (Fe(0)) as a reactive material. However, the success of implemented Fe(0) PRBs is yet to be rationalized as Fe(0) is a generator of iron oxides (contaminant scavengers) and secondary reducing agents (e.g. Fe(II), Fe₃O₄, H₂, gree ...
