Fig. 2. Comparison of RDX destruction rates at constant pH 4.5 using HCl and CH₃COOH. Fisher Scientific Fe⁰ was used at a rate of 1% (w/v). Aqueous soil washing was prepared from Soil A by creating a 20% (w/v) soil slurry, removing the soil, and treating the supernatant. Soil extract C₀ = approximately 40 mg RDX L^-1; pure solution C₀ = approximately 20 mg RDX L^-1.
