Metallic Iron (Fe0) Provide Possible Solution to Universal Safe Drinking Water Provision

Abstract

The use of metallic iron (Fe0) for environmental remediation is applied industrially with a great degree of empiricism. Rules of thumb seem to be the only guide followed by the greater part of the Fe0 remediation community. The present communication demonstrates the validity of such a harsh statement and hopes that the research community will now follow the 10-year-old path concealing Fe0 remediation and mainstream science. A promising application is safe drinking water provision on a decentralized manner.
