      Metallic iron (Fe0)-based filtration systems have the potential to significantly contribute to the achievement of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of substantially improving the human condition ...

    • Metallic iron for water treatment: leaving the valley of confusion 

      Makota, Susanne; Nde-Tchoupe, Arnaud; Mwakabona, Hezron; Noubactep, Chicgoua; Nassi, Achille; Njau, Karoli; Mwakabona, Hezron (Springer, 2017-07-31)
      Researchers on metallic iron (Fe0) for environmental remediation and water treatment are walking in a valley of confusion for 25 years. This valley is characterized by the propagation of different beliefs that have resulted ...

    • A Novel and Facile Method to Characterize the Suitability of Metallic Iron for Water Treatment 

      Lufingo, Mesia; Ndé-Tchoupé, Arnaud Igor; Hu, Rui; Njau, Karoli; Noubactep, Chicgoua (MDPI, 2019-11-23)
      Metallic iron (Fe0) materials have been industrially used for water treatment since the 1850s. There are still many fundamental challenges in affordably and reliably characterizing the Fe0 intrinsic reactivity. From the ...
