The pH has a significant impact on arsenic (As) removal by nano zero valent iron (nZVI). However, most studies consider the influence mechanism just from the aspect of electrostatic interactions. In this study, based on the different As(V) adsorption capacity of nZVI and zero valent iron (ZVI) after normalization by specific surface area, we deeply analyze the comprehensive mechanism of arsenic adsorption by nZVI at varying pH values. Batch experiment shows that pH variation has a weaker influence on the As(V) adsorption by nZVI compared to ZVI. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) analysis indicated that with the coexistence of low concentration As(V) species, the increasing pH value condition does not significantly change the phase of ZVI; however, it decreases the lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH) and increases the magnetite/maghemite (Fe3O4/γ-Fe2O3) content in the corrosion products of nZVI, while the latter has stronger adsorption affinity to As(V). An increase in the solution pH causes a change in the nature of the corrosion products, enhancing the adsorption affinity of nZVI towards As(V), which complements the negative impact from electrostatic repulsive-force. This study clearly demonstrated that the corrosion of nZVI plays a more important role in As(V) adsorption compared to electrostatic interactions. This indicates that nZVI is a promising nanomaterial with unique properties that aid in the removal of As(V) in a broad pH range and complicated environment.

Throughout the nuclear power production process, the disposal of radioactive waste has consistently raised concerns about environmental safety. When the metal tanks used for waste disposal are corroded, radionuclides seep into the groundwater environment and eventually into the biosphere, causing significant damage to the environment. Hence, investigating the adsorption behavior of radionuclides on the corrosion products of metal tanks used for waste disposal is an essential component of safety and evaluation protocols at disposal sites. In order to understand the adsorption behavior of important radionuclides60Co,59Ni,90Sr,135Cs and129I on α-FeOOH, the influences of different pH values, contact time, temperature and ion concentration on the adsorption rate were studied. The adsorption mechanism was also discussed. It was revealed that the adsorption of key nuclides onto α-FeOOH is significantly influenced by both pH and temperature. This change in surface charge corresponds to alterations in the morphology of nuclide ions within the system, subsequently impacting the adsorption efficiency. Sodium ions (Na+) and chlorate ions (ClO3−) compete for coordination with nuclide ions, thereby exerting an additional influence on the adsorption process. The XPS analysis results demonstrate the formation of an internal coordination bond (Ni–O bond) between Ni2+and iron oxide, which is adsorbed onto α-FeOOH.

Sintered nanocopper (nanoCu) paste, exhibiting excellent electrical, thermal, and mechanical performances, offers promise for interconnections in wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors operating at higher temperatures. However, sintered nanoCu is prone to severe corrosion in environments containing H 2 S, with on-site characterization methods for the composition of corrosion products currently lacking. In this study, a novel method was proposed for the rapid characterization of corrosion products during the corrosion process based on hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology. Sintered nanoCu samples were subjected to 336 h H 2 S gas corrosion tests with bulk Cu as the reference, followed by correlating the corrosion element content with hyperspectral characteristic parameters. Then, the morphology and composition of corrosion products were researched using focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis. The results showed that (1) during the corrosion process, a linear relationship was established between the Cu, O elemental atomic contents on the sample surfaces and their hyperspectral characteristic parameters. (2) The elemental atomic content of S exhibited an exponential relationship with the characteristic parameter. (3) The change rate in the spectral characteristic parameters during the corrosion process reflected the severity of corrosion, which was confirmed by comparing the thickness of the corrosion products of the sintered nanoCu and bulk Cu. This study offers a foundation for the further investigation of rapid on-site characterization of sintered nanoCu corrosion involving H 2 S.

While nanoscale zero-valent iron modified biochar (nZVI-BC) have been widely investigated for the removal of heavy metals , the corrosion products of nZVI and their interaction with heavy metals have not been revealed yet. In this paper, nZVI-BC was synthesized and applied for the removal of Cr(VI). Batch experiments indicated that the adsorption of Cr(VI) fit Langmuir isotherm, with the maximum removal capacity at 172.4 mg/g at pH 2.0. SEM-EDS, BET, XRD , FT-IR, Raman and XPS investigation suggested that reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) was the major removal mechanism. pH played an important role on the corrosion of nZVI-BC, at pH 4.5 and 2.0, FeOOH and Fe 3 O 4 were detected as the major iron oxide , respectively. Therefore, FeOOH-BC and Fe 3 O 4 -BC were further prepared and their interaction with Cr were studied. Combining with DFT calculations, it revealed that Fe 3 O 4 has higher adsorption capacity and was responsible for the effective removal of Cr(VI) through electrostatic attraction and reduction under acidic conditions. However, Fe 3 O 4 will continue to convert to the more stable FeOOH, which is the key to for the subsequent stabilization of the reduced Cr(III). The results showed that the oxide corrosion products of nZVI-BC were subjected to the environment, which will eventually affect the fate and transport of the adsorbed heavy metal.

ABSTRACT Cast iron pipes are commonly applied in drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs); peroxymonosulfate (PMS) is a promising alternative for drinking water disinfection; organic micropollutants is still present in drinking water after waterworks’ treatment. However, iron corrosion products may affect the reactions between a disinfectant and organic micropollutants. The study investigated the transformation of iopamidol (IPM) and atrazine (ATZ) by PMS under the catalysis of a composite iron corrosion product (Fe/Fe 3 O 4 ). The pseudo-first-order rate constants ( k ) for the degradation of IPM and ATZ were 1.47 and 1.03 min –1 , respectively. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments indicated that PMS was effectively activated to yield sulfate radical (SO 4 •− ) and hydroxyl radical (HO • ), mainly via the reduction by Fe component, dissolved Fe 2+ and generated F eocta 2 + . SO 4 •− contributed more than HO • to the degradation of IPM and ATZ, and the radical yield achieved 0.97 mol/mol. The k values reached maximum with Fe/Fe 3 O 4 and PMS doses of 2.5 g L –1 and 25 mg L –1 , respectively. The optimum mass fraction of Fe 3 O 4 in Fe/Fe 3 O 4 (MF mag ) and pH were 10% and 7.0, respectively. The k values increased with increasing temperature, while decreased in the presence of water matrix. Most of the iodine released from IPM was oxidized to IO 3 − , and NH 4 + was the dominant species of nitrogen released from ATZ. The identification of transformation intermediates showed that the radical chain reactions of IPM was mainly initiated from single electron transfer and radical adduct formation, while those of ATZ was primarily initiated from hydrogen atom abstraction and radical adduct formation.

The effect of inhibitors on the corrosion behavior of AZ91D magnesium (Mg) alloy was investigated via a combination of experimental and computational approaches. A new inhibition mechanism was proposed that the nucleation of corrosion products affected by inhibitor. The Mg(OH) 2 embryos carry positive charges during the metal dissolution process because the pH is lower than the isoelectric point. The positively charged embryos suppress the crystal nucleation, indicating that the inhibitor with negative charges can adsorb on the embryos, resulting in the acceleration of the embryo growths. Consequently, a dense corrosion product film and superior inhibition efficiency were obtained.

Earlier investigations have shown that corrosion products of weathering steel presented photovoltaic effect under illumination. In this study, we explored the influence of chloride ions on this effect and the related corrosion behavior. Open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and Mott- Schottky plots were recorded on weathering steel surface treated with NaCl after 3 days exposure in simulated atmospheric condition under illumination. For comparison, similar study was also performed on the weathering steel surface without NaCl deposition. There was clearly photoelectrochemical response difference between the samples. It was found that the defects concentration and electric conductivity of the corrosion products were higher due to the chloride ions migration, which was promoted by incorporation of photo-generated holes under illumination. The detailed mechanism was discussed in this study.

The formation of nitrogenous disinfection byproducts (N-DBPs) occurs in chloraminated water in drinking water distribution systems and may be affected by metal pipe materials and their corrosion products. The effect of copper corrosion products, including Cu 2+ , CuO, and Cu 2 O, on the formation of dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN) and dichloroacetamide (DCAcAm) was investigated during chloramination of natural organic matter (NOM), model precursors (carboxylic acids and amino acids), and real water samples. Copper corrosion products enhanced DCAN and DCAcAm formation during chloramination of NOM by 33%–72% and 11%–80%, respectively. Addition of 15 N-labeled monochloramine showed that the copper corrosion products primarily enhanced the formation of DCAN using organic nitrogen and monochloramine as nitrogen sources, and the formation of DCAcAm using monochloramine as the nitrogen source, but had a limited impact on the formation of DCAcAm using organic nitrogen as the nitrogen source. A distinct N-DBP formation pathway in the presence of Cu 2+ and CuO was observed using tyrosine as a model compound, which included the formation of 1,4-benzoquinone as a dominant intermediate. On reaction with monochloramine, the 1,4-benzoquinone greatly contributed to enhancement of DCAN and DCAcAm formation using monochloramine as the nitrogen source. During chloramination of real water samples, Cu 2+ and CuO enhanced DCAN formation by 9–40% and DCAcAm formation by 16–33%. This study increases our knowledge of copper catalyzed DCAN and DCAcAm formation in copper pipes, which will be meaningful for water safety in distribution systems using chloramine disinfection.

In the drinking water pipeline, PO43– and iron particles will inevitably coexist, but their effects on water quality are not fully clear. Here, PO43– was shown to inhibit the formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in ductile cast iron pipe (decreases of 8.7%–29.8%). The inhibition effects were proved to be related to particle structure changes induced by PO43–. The PO43– influenced particles had lower roughness, smaller particle size, and a larger amount of negative charge. In the beaker without iron, the concentration of PO43– remained nearly consistent with the initial concentration, oscillating around 1.5 mg/L, whereas the PO43– concentration in the group containing Fe(II) exhibited a notable decline, reaching 1.28 mg/L. Thus, PO43– did not play a direct role in the formation of DBPs, but modulated the physicochemical behavior of water and the characteristics of particles. Therefore, when iron corrosion occurs in drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs), PO43– has the ability to inhibit the formation of DBPs, but other water quality issues should be considered at the same time. This study not only explains how PO43– affects the formation of DBPs in DWDSs, but also provides new thinking on how to control the risk of DBP exposure in DWDSs, which is worthy of further research.

Efficient trichloroethylene (TCE) dechlorination is crucial for mitigating water pollution. This study demonstrates that stainless-steel anode corrosion products (SSACP) effectively reduce TCE. Comparing with zero valent iron, green rust, and iron anode corrosion product, SSACP [44 mM Fe(II)] followed higher pseudo-first-order kinetics with a TCE reduction rate constant of 8.21 h−1 in 24 h with a TCE concentration of ∼15 μM. SSACP mainly consists of amorphous metal hydroxide, including Fe, Cr, and Ni. The TCE reduction rate increases significantly with pH value and SSACP dosage. Due to the presence of Ni, the electron transfer efficiency is greatly improved, which is the key for rapid dehalogenation of TCE. Meanwhile, ferrous hydroxide has coagulation and precipitation to control the dissolution of metal elements. The SSACP system showed excellent TCE removal efficiency in groundwater remediation.

To tackle the challenge of non-destructively analyzing complex oxide layers formed by atmospheric corrosion on active metals, we investigate the potential of inverse spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (inverse-SORS) to detect corrosion products and elucidate how the spectroscopic features of SORS vary. This study explores the utilization of inverse-SORS technology for longitudinal structural analysis of opaque CeO 2 /La 2 O 3 laminates, which serve as a proxy for corrosion products. Through a combination of experimental measurements and Monte Carlo simulation, it demonstrates the feasibility of inverse-SORS in non-destructively elucidating the layered structure of these laminates. With increasing the spatial offset of this technology, the Raman intensity ratio of La 2 O 3 -to-CeO 2 increases from 0.23 to 3.2 and then decreases to 0.27 for the CeO 2 /La 2 O 3 sample with a 34-μm-thick CeO 2 layer under 532-nm excitation, whereas the bottom La 2 O 3 layer is hardly detected when the thickness of the upper La 2 O 3 layer increases to 225 μm. The results reveal that a thinner CeO 2 layer facilitates the escape and detection of Raman signals originating from the bottom La 2 O 3 layer, leading to an enhanced La 2 O 3 -to-CeO 2 signal ratio and a reduced offset at the characteristic peak. The research also sheds light on the intricate interplay among multiple variables, such as spatial offset, laser wavelength, the corresponding absorption factor, the thickness of the oxide layer, and the compactness. These insights suggest that SORS is a valuable and non-destructive approach for dissecting the structures of highly turbid composites of metallic compounds and semi-quantitatively deducing their thickness.

This study investigates the effect of corrosion temperature on the corrosion of Q235 steel and 16Mn steel in the sodium aluminate solution using the weight loss method and electrochemical method. The results indicate that the corrosion rates of two steels show an increasing trend with the temperature and that of Q235 steel increases more than that of 16Mn steel at higher temperatures. The corrosion products have changed from four forms at 25 °C to two forms at 65 and 110 °C, namely, the octahedral particles and the bulk particles formed by the flocculent aggregation. The corrosion products are composed of FeS, FeS2, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, NaFeO2, and Al2O3. The Icorr of the two steels increases with temperature, while Rp gradually decreases. The two steels are controlled by the charge transfer at 25 and 65 °C and the charge transfer and the ion diffusion at 95 °C, indicating that the temperature changes the kinetics of the corrosion process.
