Ecotoxicological effects on earthworms of fresh and aged nano-sized zero-valent iron (nZVI) in soil
El-Temsah, Yehia; Joner, Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-09)Although nano-sized zero-valent iron (nZVI) has been used for several years for remediation of contaminated soils and aquifers, only a limited number of studies have investigated secondary environmental effects and ecotoxicity ... -
Effects of nano-sized zero-valent iron (nZVI) on DDT degradation in soil and its toxicity to collembola and ostracods
El-Temsah, Yehia; Joner, Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-06)Nano-sized zero valent iron (nZVI) has been studied for in situ remediation of contaminated soil and ground water. However, little is known about its effects on organisms in soil and aquatic ecosystems. In this study, the ... -
Effects of nano-sized zero-valent iron on DDT degradation and residual toxicity in soil: a column experiment
El-Temsah, Yehia; Oughton, Deborah Helen; Joner, Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-07)Background and aims Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) application is a promising technology for degradation of chlorinated contaminants in soil. Plants also play an important role in soil remediation and nZVI should not ...
