The key role of contact time in elucidating the mechanisms of enhanced decontamination by Fe0/MnO2/sand systems

Abstract Metallic iron (Fe0) has shown outstanding performances for water decontamination and its efficiency has been improved by the presence of sand (Fe0/sand) and manganese oxide (Fe0/MnOx). In this study, a ternary Fe0/MnOx/sand system is characterized for its discoloration efficiency of methyle...
