In order to accelerate the NO removal efficiency, a novel and effective system was developed for the complete treatment of NO from flue gases. The system features NO absorption by Fe(II) (EDTA) and biological denitrification in a rotating drum biofilter (RDB) so as to promote biological reduction. The experimental results show that a moderate amount of Fe(II) (EDTA) was added to the nutrient solution to improve the mass transfer efficiency of NO from gas to liquid, with the concomitant formation of nitrosyl complex Fe(II) (EDTA)-NO. Under the experimental conditions of rotational speed was at 0.5 r x min(-1), EBRT of 57.7 s, temperature was at 30 degrees C, pH was 7-8, with the increasing concentration of Fe(II) (EDTA) was from 0 mg x L(-1) to 500 mg x L(-1), the NO removal efficiency was improved from 61.1% to 97.6%, and the elimination capacity was from 16.2 g (m3 x h)(-1) to 26.7 g (m3 x h)(-1). In order to simulate the denitrifying process of waste gas containing NO by using RDB coupled with Fe(II) (EDTA) absorption, a tie-in equation of NO removal and the Fe(II) (EDTA) concentration added in RDB was established. The experimental NO removal efficiency change tendency agrees fairly with that predicted by the proposed equation.

Ferrous oxalate (FeCO)-based composite has been recognized as an eminent catalyst for Cr(III)-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (Cr(III)-EDTA) decomplexation. However, their practical application has been limited by low cycling capacity and an ambiguous mechanism. In this research, a composite catalyst consisting of biotite loaded with nano FeCO (CFS90) was prepared directly from iron-containing silicate tailing.

Widespread Fe-bearing clay minerals are potential materials capable of reducing and immobilizing U(VI). However, the kinetics of this process and the impact of environmental factors remain unclear. Herein, we investigated U(VI) reduction by chemically reduced nontronite (rNAu-2) in the presence of EDTA and bicarbonate.

The capability of traditional ligand in countering rapid passivation on nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) surface is inadequate, and the precise electron transfer mechanism remains elusive. In this study, we reported that myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (IHP), a redox-inactive organophosphorus in soil, could highly enhance Cr(VI) reduction and immobilization in comparison with typical ligands (TPP, EDTA, oxalate and phosphate). And the effects of IHP concentration, Cr(VI) concentration and initial pH were systematically investigated.

Oxidizing potential of FeS for organic contaminants degradation due to hydroxyl radicals (•OH) production has been recently documented, but the oxidizing efficiency was limited. Here, we revealed that low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) can immensely enhance phenol degradation during FeS oxygenation due to increased utilization efficiency of FeS electron for •OH production. Upon oxygenation of 0.

Magnetite, a ubiquitous mineral in natural systems, is of high interest for a variety of applications including environmental remediation, medicine, and catalysis. If the transformation of magnetite to maghemite through the oxidation of Fe has been well documented, mechanisms involving dissolution processes of Fe in aqueous solutions have been overlooked. Here, the effect of dissolved organic ligands (EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), acetic, lactic and citric acids) on Fe solubility and on the stoichiometry (Fe(ii)/Fe(iii)) of magnetite-maghemite nanoparticles (∼10 nm) was investigated.
