Synthesis of dispersed nano zero valente iron with different stabilizers using K-Mreactor

This study, Nano Zero Valente Iron (NZVI) was produced with different stabilizers (Sodiumcarboxymethylcellulose, CMC, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, PVP, Hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB using kinetic energy micro reactor (K-M reactor). There action between Ferric chloride (FeCl3.6H2O) with different stabilizers and Sodium borohydriede (NaBH4) as reducing agent at K-M reactor gives many advantages in comparison with traditional chemical method for production of dispersed Nano ironin batch reactor. The produced Nano iron using micro reactor showed better characteristics than those produced using batch reactor in different aspects such as homogeneity of the produced particles, particle size distribution and stability. The results showed that Fe-CTAB is highly dispersed with time more than 3 hr according to Visual and optical in spectional so the shape of Fe-CTAB is spherical and give smallest Nano size in comparison with Fe-CMC and Fe-PVP. Different techniques were used for investigation and characterization of the produced dispersed Nano iron particles such as UV-Vis, TEM and PSD.
