The reduction of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in aqueous solution using nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) was investigated. The results showed that the pseudo-first order reaction law fit the reduction of TNT. The measured apparent rate constant (K(obs)) of TNT on nZVI (0.761 h(-1)) was 7.8-fold than on conventional iron powders (0.0979 h(-1)) at 303 K. The apparent activation energy (E(a)) of nZVI reducing TNT was found to be 24.85 KJ/mol, which was decreased by 60% compared to employing conventional iron powders. The apparent rate constant of TNT reduction on nZVI also can be improved by an increase in nZVI concentration, reaction temperature and a decrease of pH.
研究了使用纳米零价铁(nZVI)还原水溶液中的2,4,6-三硝基甲苯(TNT)。结果表明,伪一级反应定律适用于TNT的还原。在303 K时,TNT在nZVI上测得的表观速率常数(K(obs))为0.761 h⁻¹,是传统铁粉(0.0979 h⁻¹)上的7.8倍。发现nZVI还原TNT的表观活化能(E(a))为24.85 KJ/mol,与使用传统铁粉相比降低了60%。增加nZVI浓度、反应温度和降低pH值也可以提高TNT在nZVI上的还原表观速率常数。
