The poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) was synthesized in the pores of commercial microfiltration PVDF membranes to allow incorporation of catalytic palladium/iron (Pd/Fe) nanoparticles for groundwater remediation. Particles of 17.1 ± 4.9 nm size were observed throughout the pores of membranes using a focused ion beam. To understand the role of Pd fractions and particle compositions, 2-chlorobiphenyl was used as a model compound in solution phase studies. Results show H2 production (Fe0 corrosion in water) is a function of Pd coverage on the Fe. Insufficient H2 production caused by higher coverage (> 10.4% for 5.5 wt%) hindered dechlorination rate. With 0.5 wt% Pd, palladized-Fe reaction rate (surface area normalized reaction rate, ksa = 0.12 L/(m2-h) was considerably higher than isolated Pd and Fe particles. For groundwater, in a single pass of Pd/Fe-PMAA-PVDF membranes (0.5 wt% Pd), chlorinated organics, such as trichloroethylene (177 ppb) and carbon tetrachloride (35 ppb), were degraded to 16 and 0.3 ppb, respectively, at 2.2 seconds of residence time. The degradation rate (observed ksa) followed the order of carbon tetrachloride > trichloroethylene > tetrachloroethylene > chloroform. A 36 h continuous flow study with organic mixture and the regeneration process show the potential for on-site remediation.
