Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment of inorganic contaminants using permeable reactive barriers
David W. Blowes,Carol J. Ptacek,Shawn G. Benner,Che W.T McRae,Timothy A Bennett,Robert W. Puls +5 more
TL;DR: Permeable reactive barriers are an emerging alternative to traditional pump and treat systems for groundwater remediation as discussed by the authors, which has progressed rapidly from laboratory bench-scale studies to full-scale implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenate and Arsenite Removal by Zerovalent Iron: Effects of Phosphate, Silicate, Carbonate, Borate, Sulfate, Chromate, Molybdate, and Nitrate, Relative to Chloride
Chunming Su,Robert W. Puls +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that Peerless Fe0 may be an excellent permeable reactive barrier medium for a suite of mixed inorganic contaminants for field applications to remediate As(V) and As(III.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenate and arsenite removal by zerovalent iron: kinetics, redox transformation, and implications for in situ groundwater remediation.
Chunming Su,Robert W. Puls +1 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that both As(V) and As(III) formed stronger surface complexes or migrated further inside the interior of the sorbent with increasing time as the residence time of interaction between the sorbents and arsenic increased from 1 to 60 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coupled Iron Corrosion and Chromate Reduction: Mechanisms for Subsurface Remediation
TL;DR: A cyclic, multiple reaction electrochemical corrosion mechanism, enhanced by the development of an electrical double-layer analogue, is proposed to explain the differing iron reactivities and aquifer material effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
The application of in situ permeable reactive (zero-valent iron) barrier technology for the remediation of chromate-contaminated groundwater: a field test
TL;DR: A small-scale field test was initiated in September 1994 to evaluate the in situ remediation of groundwater contaminated with chromate using a permeable reactive barrier composed of a mixture of zero-valent Fe, sand and aquifer sediment as discussed by the authors.
