Ecotoxicity of nanoscale zero-valent iron particles – a review
Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia, 2013 The use of nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVIs) in the environmental remediation of water and soil is increasing. This increase is related to the higher reactivity and mobility of nZVIs compared with that of macro- or micro-sized iron particles ...

Phosphate removal from aqueous solutions by nanoscale zero-valent iron
Environmental Technology, 2013 In this study, nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) was synthesized by conventional liquid-phase chemical reduction methods without a support material and then characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The effect of NZVI particles on phosphate removal from aqueous solutions was

Analytical characterisation of nanoscale zero-valent iron: A methodological review [PDF]
Analytica Chimica Acta, 2016 Zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) have been widely tested as they are showing significant promise for environmental remediation. However, many recent studies have demonstrated that their mobility and reactivity in subsurface environments are significantly affected by their tendency to aggregate.
