Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX) analysis showed that the av-erage diameter of synthesized palladium/iron bimetallic nanoparticles was less than 80 nm, which was much smaller than the particles produced by the solution method. The palladium/iron bimetallic nanoscale particles produced in the laboratory showed better performance on dechlorinating TCE than the other materials. The nanoscale Fe/Pd particles exhibited high reactivity. When Pd content is 0.5%, the best TCE dechlorination efficiency is achieved within 30min. And Fe/Pd nanoparticles show persistent reaction activity in some sense.展开更多

The microscopic composition distribution in the alloy UFP was identified, which is caused by nonuniformity of the melt, fractional distillation during the evaporation process and statistical fluctuation during nucleation and coalescence of the alloy particles.

Nanoscale Pd/Fe bimetallic particles were characterized in terms of surface area, morphology, size and structure. The parameters affecting the dechlorination efficiency were studied through batch experiments. Effects of Pd content, Pd/Fe addition, and the initial pH value of reaction system on the dechlorination efficiency of chlorinated methanes were determined systematically. Results show that nanoscale Pd/Fe bimetallic particles play a prominent role in the dechlorination of chlorinated methanes. The change of pH value and ferrous ion concentration during dechlorination reaction were also investigated in this study. It is found that the dechlorination efficiency of chlorinated methanes is in the order of CT>CF>DCM.展开更多

Nanoscale Pd/Fe bimetallic particles were synthesized in the laboratory for treatment of o-chlorophenol. Most of the nanoscale particles are in the size range of 20—100 nm. BET specific surface area of the nanoscale Pd/Fe particles is 12.4 m2/g. In comparison, a commercially available Fe powder(<100 mesh) has a specific surface area of just 0\^49 m2/g. Batch experiments demonstrated that the nanoscale Pd/Fe bimetallic particles can effectively dechlorinate o-chlorophenol. Dechlorination efficiency is affected by the mass fraction of Pd in the bimetal, nanoscale Pd/Fe mass concentration and mixing intensity.展开更多

Pd/Fe nanoparticles(NPs) were successfully immobilized on the Al2O3/PVDF membrane, which was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM). The micrographs showed that the Pd/Fe NPs were dispersed homogeneously. Several important experimental parameters were optimized, including the mechanical properties, contact angle and surface area of Al2O3/PVDF composite membranes with different Al2O3 contents. At the same time, the ferrous ion concentration and the effect of hydrophilization were studied. The results showed that the modified Al2O3/PVDF membrane functioned well as a support. The Al2O3/PVDF membrane with immobilized Pd/Fe NPs exhibited high efficiency in terms of dichloroacetic acid(DCAA) dechlorination. Additionally, a reaction pathway for DCAA dechlorination by Pd/Fe NPs immobilized on the Al2O3/PVDF membrane system was proposed.展开更多
