PG - 995-1003 LID - S0048-9697(18)33351-5 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2018.08.380 [doi] AB - Pathogenic viruses in water are seriously harmful to human health and highly resistant to conventional disinfections. As a kind of promising attempts for pollution remediation, Fe-based nanoparticles show excellent performance in removing contaminants. In this study, the Fe/Ni nanoparticles (Fe/Ni NPs) were synthesized using the self-designed device and used for bacteriophage inactivation in water. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the as-prepared Fe/Ni particles were spherical and the average particle size was 93 nm. The synthesized Fe/Ni NPs achieved much higher removal efficiency of bacteriophage f2 than nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), while Ni nanoparticles (Ni NPs) showed no removal effect on the bacteriophage f2. The highest removal efficiency of bacteriophage f2 by Fe/Ni NPs was obtained when the primary ratio of Fe:Ni was 5:1. In addition, the removal efficiency of phage f2 under aerobic condition was significantly higher than that under anaerobic condition with Fe/Ni NPs, and the role of Ni was proved as a catalyst in the system. Besides, the effect of initial pH, initial concentration of bacteriophage f2, particles dose, rotation rate, and temperature on the removal efficiency of bacteriophage f2 were studied. The result showed that the removal efficiency of bacteriophage f2 did not change obviously in the test pH range (5-8), and was positively related with the rotation rate and negatively related with the initial concentration of bacteriophage f2. The particles dose could increase the removal efficiency of phage f2, but the removal efficiency would decrease when the dose was too much due to the aggregation of nanoparticles. The increase of temperature could increase the removal efficiency initially, but decrease the removal efficiency finally due to the accelerated corrosion of iron.
