摘要
The influence of iron corrosion products (FeCPs) on the efficiency of metallic iron (Fe-0) for aqueous contaminant removal is characterized. Quiescent batch experiments were conducted for four weeks with solutions containing about 30 mu M of either methylene blue (MB) or methyl orange (MO) at room temperature. Before dye (MB or MO) addition, used Fe-0 (iron filings) was allowed to equilibrate with demineralized water for 0 to 45 days (pre-corrosion). This operation enabled the in-situ generation of various amounts FeCPs. Results clearly demonstrated the crucial importance of freshly precipitated FeCPs for the decontamination process. The differential behavior of MB and MO confirmed the ion-selective nature of Fe-0/H2O systems. A significant pH increase was observed in the MO system relative to the MB system. This was attributed to increased iron corrosion by virtue of formation of soluble Fe2+-MO complexes. The overall result questions the usefulness of pre-treating (e.g. acid washing) Fe-0 materials before testing in short term experiments and reiterates the importance of longer lasting experiments with Fe-0 materials.
