International Perspectives on Environmental Nanotechnology Applications and Implications Conference

While there has been extensive investigation of the ability of zero valent iron (ZVI) to induce reductive transformations of contaminants, there has been much less study of oxidative transformations induced by nanosized ZVI (nZVI). In this presentation, current understanding of the mechanism by which nZVI-mediated oxidative transformations occur will be presented as will information on the chemical and biological impacts of these oxidative processes. Current state of knowledge concerning the factors controlling the rate and extent of nZVI-mediated oxidation will be described and recent studies of approaches to enhancing the oxidative ability of nZVI will be reviewed.
