Iron Nanoparticles, especially Nanoscale Zerovalent Iron (NZVI) with different
Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface areas, ranging from 13 to 51m<sup>2</sup>/g,
has been successfully synthesized. The main advantages of NZVI are its high
reactivity for the complete removal of toxic pollutants, such as bromate and
arsenic, and its high potential for introducing iron nanoparticles directly into
contaminated water phase and groundwater area. Compared to commercial
micro-size zerovalent iron, synthesized NZVI is more reactive due to its highly
specific surface area and high dispersivity. The reactivity of synthesized NZVI
was observed by investigating the effects of operational parameters on reduction
of bromate, our target contaminant, from water state. Includes 7 references, table, figures.
