- Abstract
- A kinetic model for the competitions was applied to understand the reductive dechlorination of tertiary DNAPL mixtures containing PCE, TCE, and 1,1,1-TCA. The model assumed that the mass transfer rates were sufficiently rapid that the target compounds in the solution and the DNAPL mixture were in phase equilibrium. Dechlorination was achieved using either a mixture of Fe(II), Fe(III), and Ca(OH)2 (Fe(II/III)-L) or a mixture of Fe(II) and Portland cement (Fe(II)-C). PCE in the DNAPL mixtures was gradually reduced and it was reduced more rapidly using Fe(II)-C than Fe(II/III)-L. A constant total TCE concentration in the DNAPL mixtures was observed, which implied that the rate of loss of TCE by dechlorination and possibly other processes was equal to the rate of production of TCE by PCE dechlorination. On the other hand, 1,1,1-TCA in the DNAPL mixtures was removed rapidly and its degradation rate by Fe(II/III)-L was faster than by Fe(II)-C. The coefficients in the kinetic model (ki, Ki) were observed to decrease in the order 1,1,1-TCA > PCE > TCE, for both Fe(II/III)-L and Fe(II)-C. The concentrations of target compounds in solution were the effective solubilities, because of the assumption of phase equilibrium and were calculated with Rault's Law. The concentration changes observed were an increase and then a decrease for PCE, a sharp and then gradual increase for TCE, and a dramatic decrease for 1,1,1-TCA. The fraction of initial and theoretical reductive capacity revealed that Fe(II)-C had ability to degrade target compounds.
