Abstract
Oxyanions including common phosphates, sulfates, carbonates, hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)), and pentavalent vanadium (V(V)) occur as contaminants in aquifers. Here, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)-modified amorphous nano zero-valent iron (CMC-AnZVI) was synthesized by liquid-phase reduction and evaluated as a potential aquifer treatment material for Cr(VI) and V(V) removal. The application rate of CMC did not change the crystallinity but affected the reactivity of the material. Furthermore, CMC-AnZVI showed high efficiency and capacity to eliminate Cr(VI) and V(V) due to its distinctive crystal structure and nano size. At pH 7.0 ± 0.2, the Cr(VI) and V(V) elimination rate constants were up to 1.77 × 10−2 min−1 and 1.67 × 10−1 min−1, respectively. In addition, CMC-AnZVI exhibited strong sequestration ability over the wide pH range of 3–11. Langmuir fitted the reaction of CMC-AnZVI and the removal capacities of Cr(VI) and V(V) were 132.8 and 269.5 mg g−1, respectively. The main Cr(VI) elimination mechanism of CMC-AnZVI was reduction and that of V(V) was rapid inner-sphere surface complexation. Consequently, the removal of V(V) was sensitive to Cr(VI) due to the strong oxidation capacity of Cr(VI) and the secondary minerals (FeCr2O4 and Cr(OH)3) created in the reaction covered the active sites. CMC-AnZVI is proposed as an efficient material for the removal of Cr(VI) and V(V) and the interrelationships between oxyanions during elimination require further study.
