Abstract
Dechlorination of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) as a model compound was performed with zero-valent iron (micro-ZVI and nano-ZVI) as reductant and carbonaceous adsorbents as sink and catalyst in water. DDT is rapidly converted to dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (DDD) in direct contact with ZVI. However, up to 90% of the DDD is transformed into non-identified, most likely oligomeric products. There is no indication of dechlorination at the...
