Description |
Cast iron has been a material of choice for in-situ remediation of groundwater. In this study interaction of endosulfan with High Carbon Iron Filings (HCIF) was studied in batch reactors. Decline in total concentration (Ct) could be related to aqueous concentration (Ca) by equation dCt/dt = k1.M.Can, where reaction rate constant (k1) and order (n) were found to be 1.246 × 10−4 L g−1 iron h−1 and 1.47, respectively. Partitioning of endosulfan to HCIF could be explained by Freundlich isotherm. The process of simultaneous reductive dehalogenation and adsorption/desorption was successfully modelled. The reductive dehalogenation of endosulfan resulted in by-products identified as [(3a, alpha,7beta,7a alpha,8s)-4,5,6,7,8 Pentachloro 3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydro] (C9H3Cl5O3) and Benzofuran,4,5,7-trichloro-2,3-dihydro-2-methyl (C9H7Cl3O).
