General description

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid (HEIDA) is a biodegradable and strong metal chelating agent, similar to nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA).

Application

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid (HEIDA) can be used in the following processes:
  • HEIDA can be used as a metal chelating agent for Fe(III) ion. The presence of HEIDA improves the Fenton′s destruction performance of PCE (perchloroethylene) existing as dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) in soil slurry systems.
  • Oxorhenium(V) complexes with HEIDA are used for the carboxylation of ethane by CO, with potassium peroxodisulfate (K2S2O8)/trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), to afford propionic and acetic acid in good yield.
  • Vanadium complexes with HEIDA are used for the peroxidative hydroxylation of benzene and oxidation of mesitylene.

The Fenton's system is applied to the destruction of perchloroethylene (PCE) present as a dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) in soil slurry systems; the initial concentration of PCE was 45 times higher than its aqueous solubility. Studies were conducted in

Fenton's destruction of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) was investigated in soil slurry batch reactors. The purpose of the investigation was to quantify the enhancement of oxidation rates and efficiency by varying process conditions such as iron catalyst (Fe(II)
