NanoFe TM
AN INNOVATIVE REMEDIATION TECHNOLOGY
FOR SOILS AND
GROUNDWATER
§
NanoFe are submicron (<10-6m) nano particles of zero
valent iron
§
NanoFe rapidly destroys recalcitrant contaminants in-situ or
ex-situ. This
is based on the redox process where the contaminant serves as the electron
acceptor
§
NanoFe can be injected by gravity or under pressure

ADVANTAGES OF NanoFe TECHNOLOGY
§
Treats
both the dissolved plume and source areas
§
No
depth limitations
§
Highly
reactive – rapid degradation and no toxic intermediates
§
Portable
– low capital and O&M costs
§
Easily
injected; NanoFe flows with groundwater
§
Low
NanoFe / contaminant ratios required
