Procedure :
1. NZVI material was synthesized by dropwise addition of
1.6M NaBH4 aquous solution to Ne- purged 1M
FeCl3.6H2O aquous solution at 23oC with stirring.
Fe(H2O)63+ + 3BH4- + 3H2O = Fe0 + 3B(OH)3 + 10.5H2

Laboratory Methods :
A variety of analytical methods for laboratory determination of
arsenic has been described in has literature but many of them
essentially employ similar principles. The most common methods
prescribed for use after proper validation by international and
national standard methods include atomic absorption
spectrometry (AAS), inductively coupled plasma (ICP), anodic
stripping voltammetry (ASV), and silver diethyldithiocarbamate
(SDDC) spectrometric method. AAS is a sensitive single-element
technique with known and controllable interference. Both hydride
generation (HG) and graphite furnace (GF) AAS methods are
widely used for analysis of arsenic in water. ICP atomic emission
spectrometry (AES) and mass spectrometry (MS) are
multielement
techniques, also with known and controllable interference. ASV is
a useful technique for analysis of dissolved arsenic and arsenic
speciation but needs special precautions for accuracy. The SDDC
spectrometric method has been widely used for its simplicity and
low cost but suffers from interference and reproducibility. A
summary of laboratory analytical techniques, with important
features, is presented in table 4 (Rasmussen and Anderson 2002;
Khaliquzzaman and Khan 2003).
