Nano zero-valent iron (NZVI) has been widely used to improve refractory wastewater treatment. However, the rapid dissolution of NZVI causes a waste of resources and an unstable bioaugmentation. Herein, to verify the essential role of slow release of NZVI on biological systems, a core-shell structure...
