All Zero Valent Iron are not Created Equally
Particle size: The particle size of ZVI is the primary and the most important aspects in choosing a type of ZVI. The reductive dechlorination of chlorinated compounds is a surface area mediated reaction, meaning that in theory, the greater the surface area, the more reactive a ZVI particle is. For example, granular iron is less reactive than micro-iron powder which is less reactive than ...
