URI: https://data.geoscience.earth/ncl/misc/475
Fe0 (ZVI) refers to iron in its elemental, unoxidized form, where the iron atoms have a formal oxidation state of zero. Effective in breaking down hazardous substances into less harmful compounds, ZVI has the ability to reduce contaminants, such as chlorinated solvents, by donating electrons during chemical reactions. Used in technologies like permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) or injection systems to treat contaminants in situ.
