Review on nano zerovalent iron (nZVI): From synthesis to environmental applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the opportunities and risks arising from the use of nano zerovalent iron (nZVI) from its synthesis to environmental application, and identify problems that may occur a result of changes in the physicochemical properties of nZVI due to their modification (e.g. other metal doping, coating the surface, or deposition on the support).

Kinetics of Halogenated Organic Compound Degradation by Iron Metal

TL;DR: Correlation analysis using kSA reveals that dechlorination is generally more rapid at saturated carbon centers than unsaturated carbons and that high degrees of halogenation favor rapid reduction, and kSA is still the most appropriate starting point for design c...
