Nanoscale zerovalent iron particles for groundwater remediation: a review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the current knowledge on the properties, reactivity and mobility in porous media of nZVI and their application to groundwater remediation is presented, where a specific focus is devoted to the methodologies to the colloidal stability of the NZVI slurries and to the available numerical tools for the simulation of laboratory and field scale mobility of the particles when injected in a porous media.

Supported and unsupported nanomaterials for water and soil remediation: are they a useful solution for worldwide pollution?

TL;DR: This review analyzed relevant literature from 2011 to 2013, dealing with water and soil remediation by nanomaterials (NMs), either unsupported or supported upon inorganic adsorbents, and found lack of information about NMs regeneration and reusability, their large-scale application, and their efficiency in actual industrial wastewaters and contaminated soils.

Enhanced removal of Cr(VI) by silicon rich biochar-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron.

TL;DR: It was revealed that RS700-supported nZVI supported by silicate particles of biochar and the promotion of iron oxidation by SiO2 both contribute to the enhanced Cr(VI) removal and can be used as a potential remediation reagent to treat Cr( VI)-contaminated groundwater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stability and transport of graphene oxide nanoparticles in groundwater and surface water

TL;DR: This study confirms that planar "carbonaceous-oxide" materials follow traditional theory for stability and transport, both due to their response to ionic strength, valence, and NOM presence and is the first to look at GONP transport across a wide range of representative conditions found in surface and groundwater environments.

Continuum-based models and concepts for the transport of nanoparticles in saturated porous media: A state-of-the-science review.

TL;DR: The use of simplifying assumptions, such as the equilibrium assumption, in modeling the attachment/detachment mechanisms within a continuum modelling framework are investigated and it is found that its use as a description of dynamic deposition behavior in a continuum model yields broadly similar results to those arising from a kinetic model.
