- Abstract
The article discusses research on dechlorination of trichloroethylene (TCE) using iron nanoaggregates coated with palladium. Contaminated media representative of a zero-valent metal remediation site at the Paducah, Kentucky gaseous diffusion plant was studied. The article discusses comparative first-order reaction rate constants measured considering ideal dechlorination versus use of a so-called realistic background matrix at high pH. Reaction rates are reportedly most sensitive to the palladium content of the iron aggregate.
