AB  - Environmental pollution causes irreversible damage to ecosystems and their 
      structure. Therefore, the development of novel remedial techniques is a must for 
      an effective response to emerging contaminants and those already persisting in 
      the environment. The nanosized zero-valent iron (nZVI) is considered as an 
      important nanostructure for the degradation of toxic compounds. Furthermore, the 
      degradative potential of nZVI may be improved by surface modification. In this 
      work nZVI was functionalized with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), which is considered to 
      be an environmentally-friendly and cheap adsorbent for toxic pollutants. Such a 
      'green' improvement not only enhances the activity of nZVI but also enables the 
      conversion of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol, which under standard conditions is 
      persistent and does not significantly react with bare nZVI. This research may 
      help to find a solution to treat persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in aqueous 
      environment.
