The experimental results showed that nickel/iron had effective catalytic activity in dechlorinating atrazine under acidic conditions. The dechlorination reaction approximately followed the first-order kinetics under the experimental conditions(nickel/iron:1.0 g/250 ml;C atrazine=20.0 mg/L), the reaction rate increased with decreasing pH value of the reaction solution and increasing the proportion of Ni:Fe within 2.95%. For condition with 2.95% nickel/iron, the reaction rate constants were 0.07518(R=0.9927), 0.06212(R=0.9846) and 0.00131 min -1(R=0.9565) at pH=2.0, 3.0 and 4.0, respectively. HPLC analysis was used to monitor the decline of atrazine concentration.展开更多
