Oxidative treatment of iodide-containing waters can form toxic iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs). To better understand the fate of iodine, kinetics, products, and stoichiometries for the reactions of ferrate(VI) with iodide (I-) and hypoiodous acid (HOI) were determined. Ferrate(VI) showed considerable reactivities to both I- and HOT with higher reactivities at lower pH. Interestingly, the reaction of ferrate(VI) with HOT (k = 6.0 X 10(3) M-1 s(-1) at pH 9) was much faster than with I- (k = 5.6 X 10(2) M-1 s(-1) at pH 9). The main reaction pathway during treatment of I--containing waters was the oxidation of to HOT and its further oxidation to IO3- by ferrate(VI). However, for pH > 9, the HOT disproportionation catalyzed by ferrate(VI) became an additional transformation pathway forming I- and IO3-. The reduction of HOI by hydrogen peroxide, the latter being produced from ferrate(VI) decomposition, also contributes to the I- regeneration in the pH range 9-11. A kinetic model was developed that could well simulate the fate of iodine in the ferrate(VI)-I- system. Overall, due to a rapid oxidation of I- to IO3- with short-lifetimes of HOI, ferrate(VI) oxidation appears to be a promising option for I-DBP mitigation during treatment of I--containing waters.
