PG - 3676-3684 LID - 10.1080/09593330.2022.2068383 [doi] AB - ABSTRACTThe dechlorination of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) by a nanoscale Fe/Ni material was investigated at room temperature. 2,4-DCP can be removed more quickly by an Fe/Ni material with 2% Ni. Fe/Ni exhibited excellent adsorption and reduction efficiency toward 2,4-DCP in an aqueous solution over a wide range of pH values. The removal rate of 2,4-DCP exceeded 95% in 60 min in the pH range of 3.0-9.0, and more than 75% was dechlorinated to phenol (CA). The degradation pathway of 2,4-DCP was confirmed based on analysis of the intermediate and end products. A portion of 2,4-DCP was first dechlorinated with a chlorine atom to produce 2-chlorophenol and 4-chlorophenol, and then dechlorination was performed sequentially to form CA. The other portion of 2,4-DCP was dechlorinated to remove two chlorine atoms simultaneously to generate CA. The investigations are essential to the application of iron-based remediation technology.
