Abstract The combination of injectible grey cast iron (gcFe) and nano-scale iron (naFe) corrosion with autotrophic sulphate reduction (aSR) for simultaneous U and As immobilisation was investigated in column experiments. NaFe resulted in an intensive corrosion, the formation of a homogenous reactive zone, a distinct aSR and complete U and As immobilisation. At the gcFe column, a particle displacement resulted in the formation of reactive gcFe clusters, which were partly bypassed by the influent groundwater. Nevertheless, the lasting gcFe corrosion caused a complete As, but only partial U immobilization.
