Abstract

The unique "core-shell" structure endows nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) rich aquatic surface chemistry properties. Transformation of surface chemistry and crystal phase of nZVI affect its reactivity and environmental transport and fate. Recent advances on the surface chemistry and phase transformation of nZVI in aqueous media are highlighted in this paper focusing on a basic theory of nZVI for pollution control and environmental application. Surface chemistry and phase of both fresh and reacted nZVI are presented. The structure, composition and properties of nanoparticles are determined not only by reaction time but also by environmental conditions. Specifically, the influences of dissolved oxygen, hydraulic conditions (static and stirring), types and concentrations of heavy metals (U(VI), Cr(VI), Se(IV)) and anions (NO3-, SO42-, HPO42- and HCO3-) are investigated. In addition, the effect of surface modification with polyelectrolytes, including anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) and carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC), on microstructure, morphology and composition of nanoparticles in aqueous phase was discussed. Results demonstrate that environmental conditions have significant impacts on particles structure, composition and properties, consequently on nZVI performance for pollutant removal. After corrosion under different aqueous conditions, the core-shell structured nZVI are distorted and the metallic iron core is transformed into different iron oxides/hydroxides, such as γ-Fe2O3, Fe3O4 and γ-FeOOH. These iron (hydr)oxides exhibit different surface complexation and affinity proprieties, thus eventually affecting the pollutant removal performance and the environmental fate of reaction products. More research on the effect of dynamic structure transformation by different types of pollutants, and a reaction model between the surface chemistry/phase transformation and removal performance are needed to deepen our understanding on nZVI surface chemistry, and develop more effective technologies of environmental applications.
