Résumé
Effective in-situ technology to treat carcinogenic compounds in contaminated areas poses a major challenge. Our objective was to load nano-zero-valent iron (nZVI) onto leonardite char (LNDC), an alternative carbon source from industrial waste, for use as a persulfate (PS) activator for styrene treatment in soil and water. By adding a surfactant during synthesis, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) promotes a flower-like morphology and the nZVI formation in smaller sizes. Results showed that nZVI plays a crucial role in PS activation in both homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can remove 98% of styrene within 20 min. Quenching experiments indicated that singlet oxygen (
