Comments on “The effect of substituent groups on the reductive degradation of azo dyes by zerovalent iron” by M. Hou, et al. [J. Hazard. Mater. 145 (2007) 305]

Abstract: g/mol; pK a = 8.2) and Methyl Orange (327.34 g/mol; pK a = 3.7) were selected as the model azo dyes with the different substituent gro ups, and Orange II (350.33 g/mol; pK a = 11.2) was studied as the isomer of Orange I; (ii) the effects of the initial concentration of azo dyes, the initial pH value and the Fe 0 dosage on the degradation kinetics were investigated.

“…A thick and compact oxide layer, which is always found on the surface of CZVI, could act as a physical barrier to inhibit the electron transfer and lead to the decrease of reactivity. 29 Then, the different oxide lm structures could be the key factor to affect the degradation rate of DB6 with different ZVI materials. Based on the study of the passive lm in corrosion science, the oxide lm or passive lm is affected by the structure and the composition of the matrix.…”

“…The MTW concept is widely accepted in current literature despite four strong features suggesting its instability: (i) the concept is derived without demonstration/verification from the thermodynamic standpoint (low reduction potential of the redox couple Fe II /Fe 0 ), (ii) a number of publications has attempted to point out its instability for individual contaminants [17][18][19][20], (iii) the MTW concept is inadequate to explain some experimental results as will be shown later, and (iv) where the concept is believed to have been demonstrated the experimental conditions were not appropriate [21][22][23][24]. In particular, the experimental conditions of Matheson & Tratnyek [2], and Weber [1] are not sufficient to allow traceable conclusions.…”
