What is Degradation of 1,2,3-Trichloropropane by Pyrite Activating Sodium Percarbonate and the Implications for Groundwater Remediation about?

1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP) is a newly regulated groundwater contaminant, however, its remediation technology has not been fully investigated. In this research, pyrite (FeS2) was used as a novel activator of sodium percarbonate (SPC) for TCP degradation. TCP could be effectively removed by FeS2/SPC system with a much higher removal efficiency than the classic Fenton system. Free radical quenching test, hydroxyl radical probe reaction, EPR, XPS, XRD and SEM were used to elucidate the reaction mechanism. SPC was decomposed to produce H2O2, which was activated by Fe2+ dissolved from pyrite to produce HO· and O2 -·. Both HO· and O2 -· contributed to TCP degradation, but HO· played a more important role. The S elements of pyrite promoted the regeneration of Fe2+, thus enhancing the TCP degradation. The TCP removal efficiency significantly increased with increases in concentrations of pyrite and SPC and decreases in pyrite particle size and pH. Although HCO3 -, Cl- and NOM inhibited TCP degradation by FeS2/SPC, the reaction system could still remove TCP in real groundwater. Overall, pyrite-activate SPC is a promising in-situ groundwater remediation technology.
