TY - JOUR A1 - Noubactep, C. T1 - Comments on: “The effect of substituent groups on the reductive degradation of azo dyes by zerovalent iron.” By Hou M. et al. [J. Hazard. Mater. 145 (2007) 305] Y1 - 2007 VL - 148 IS - 3 SP - 773 EP - 774 JF - Journal of Hazardous Materials DO - 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2007.07.004 DO - 10.23689/fidgeo-2269 N2 - This letter discusses possible improvements in experimental conditions to enable a purposeful discussion on the effect of substituent groups on the reductive degradation of azo dyes by elemental iron (Fe0) in a recent article by M. Hou and his co-workers. Also recalled is the pH dependence of the iron corrosion mechanism which is usually overlooked in the iron technology literature.
