Degradation of tetrachloroethylene by zero valent iron nanoparticles in the presence of a natural groundwater bacterial biofilm in a sandy porous media

Biofilms are naturally present in aquifers and can interact with zero valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) used as remediation agents in contaminated groundwater; thereby they may alter nZVI reactivity towards targeted contaminants in porous media. Laboratory scale experiments using columns filled with...
