Using a combined zero-valent iron (ZVI) and anaerobic sludge system as the platform, the hydrogen utilization and reductive mechanism of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-ClNB) were investigated in the study. Results showed that the corrosion of ZVI could be used as a source
Comamonas sp. strain CNB-1 can utilize 4-chloronitrobenzene (4CNB) as sole carbon and nitrogen source for growth. Previous studies were focused on 4CNB degradative pathway and have showed that CNB-1 contained a plasmid pCNB1 harboring the genes (cnbABCaCbDEFGH, cnbZ) for the

TiO(2) hollow microspheres were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method followed by calcination at different temperatures ranging from 400 to 800°C. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, SAED, HRTEM, N(2) adsorption, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have been used for the first time to support ruthenium nanoparticles for the hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB) to produce selectively p-chloroaniline. The preparation of well-dispersed ruthenium catalysts from the [Ru(3)(CO)(12)] precursor required activation

In this study, zero-valent iron (ZVI) was used to pretreat para-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB), and the major product was para-chloroaniline (p-CAN). By adding H(2)O(2) directly, further p-CAN degradation can be attributed to Fenton oxidation because ferrous ions (Fe(2+)) released during the ZVI
