Zero-valent iron pretreatment for detoxifying iodine in liquid crystal display (LCD) manufacturing wastewater

Application of Modified Silica Coated Magnetite Nanoparticles for Removal of Iodine from Water Samples

“…The im-MMNP s may be used as an inexpensive, effective, and alternative sorbent for removal of iodine from water solutions. A comparison between the proposed sorbents with those reported for the adsorption of iodine [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] shows that it provides higher adsorption capacity and simpler separation of iodine loaded sorbent from water solutions.…”

“…The main source of contamination of the environment by iodine is thin film transistor liquid crystal displays, TFT-LCD [9]. In the TFT-LCD, wastewater is detrimental to the proper operation of the wastewater treatment facility due to its potential biocidal effect toward microorganisms; and zero-valent iron has been proved effective in removing iodine from the wastewater [10]. Several reports have been published on the removal of iodine from water samples.…”

Effective removal of nemacide fosthiazate from an aqueous solution using zero-valent iron

“…In particular, ZVI is an inexpensive and moderately strong reducing agent which has been applied in the laboratory to treat various environmental pollutants, such as heavy metals (Fu et al, 2013), azo dyes (Cao et al, 1999;Nam et al, 2000;Perey et al, 2002), explosives (Koutsospyros et al, 2012;Wanaratna et al, 2006;Oh et al, 2005aOh et al, , 2005b, halogenated organic compounds (Johnson et al, 1996;Gillham and Ohannesin, 1994), highly toxic chemicals (Oh et al, 2006;Lee et al, 2009), nitroaromatics compounds (Shen et al, 2013;Devlin et al, 1998;Agrawal and Tratnyek, 1995), and nitrate (Huang et al, 1998). ZVI is commonly used as a treatment technique for toxic and refractory waste water, such as bromoamine acid waste water, coking waste water, olive mill waste water, industrial waste water, and ABS resin waste water (Fan et al, 2009;Kallel et al, 2009;Ma and Zhang, 2008;Lai et al, 2009Lai et al, , 2012.…”

Removal of FePO4 and Fe3(PO4)2 crystals on the surface of passive fillers in Fe0/GAC reactor using the acclimated bacteria

“…In recent years, zero-valent iron (ZVI) or Fe 0 /GAC system has been used for the treatment of toxic refractory wastewater such as liquid crystal display (LCD) manufacturing wastewater [11], bromoamine acid wastewater [12], olive mill wastewater [13], nitrobenzene wastewater [14] and coking wastewater [15]. The pollutants in wastewater can be decomposed or transformed efficiently by the macroscopic galvanic cells and microscopic galvanic cells in the Fe 0 /GAC system [16].…”
