This study investigated decomposition the pathway and characteristics of fenitrothion, which is applied on the golf course for pesticide, by ZVI in batch reactor. The removal efficiencies of the pure fenitrothion and the commercial fenitrothion in Smithion by ZVI were compared. The fenitrothion was converted to 3-Methyl-4-nitrophenol and 4-Amino-m-cresol by ZVI. The fenitrothion decomposition rate by ZVI could be expressed by the first order reaction. As increasing the ZVI dosages, the first order rate constants and removal efficiencies increased. The surface area normalized rate constants for the pure fenitrothion and the commercial fenitrothion were 0.0398 and 0.1312 ($L/m^2{cdot}hr$), respectively. The decomposition of the commercial fenitrothion in Smithion was faster than that of the pure fenitrothion by ZVI, the surfactant in Smithion lead to enhances solubility of fenitrothion and disperse ZVI.
