Nanoscale zero valent iron (nZVI) particles have been studied in recent years as a
promising technology for the remediation of contaminated soil. Although the potential …

As an emerging new class of materials comprising two different metals, bimetallic
nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit new functions because of the synergistic rather than merely …

Nitrobenzene (NB) in groundwater has posed significant health risks because of its
persistence and high toxicity. In this study, batch experiments were performed to evaluate …

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers have been identified as a new class of organic pollutants
with ecological risk due to their toxicity, bioaccumulation, and global distribution. Proper …

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are chemicals which have been persisting in the
environment for many years due to their longer half-lives. POPs have gained attention over …

Little attention has been given to the development of remediation strategies for soils polluted
with mixture of pollution (metal (loid) s and organic compounds). The present study …

Technologies such as thermal, oxidative, reductive, and microbial methods for the
remediation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have previously been reviewed. Based on …

To increase the dispersion of nanoparticles and enhance their reactivity, bentonite-
supported Fe/Pd nanoparticles (B/Fe/Pd) were synthesized and used for the dechlorination …

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are commonly used as additive flame retardants in
all kinds of electronic products. PBDEs are now ubiquitous in the environment, with soil as a …

Nanoscale zerovalent iron (nZVI) has potential for the remediation of organochlorine-
contaminated environments. Environmental safety concerns associated with in situ …
