Key Points

Nanoscale zero-valent iron effectively reduces heavy metal toxicity in soil, providing an innovative solution to soil contamination.
The one-pot synthesis method utilized FeSO4 and NaBH4, demonstrating a streamlined approach to produce nZVI.
This study highlights the potential of nZVI to passivate both anions and cations, addressing multiple forms of heavy metal pollution.
Findings encourage further exploration of nZVI applications in environmental remediation, specifically within contaminated soil.

Implication

Experimental analysis reveals nanoscale zero-valent iron may effectively passivate heavy metal anions and cations in soil, suggesting a novel soil remediation approach.

Abstract

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) was synthesized by a one-pot liquid-phase chemical method in the presence of FeSO 4 as the iron source and NaBH 4 as the reducing agent.
