Query: The Iron abundance in Galactic Planetary Nebulae   We constrain the iron abundance in a sample of 33 low-ionization Galactic
planetary nebulae (PNe) using [Fe III] lines and correcting for the
contribution of higher ionization states with ionization correction factors
(ICFs) that take into account uncertainties in the atomic data. We find very
low iron abundances in all the objects, suggesting that more than 90% of their
iron atoms are condensed onto dust grains. This number is based on the solar
iron abundance and implies a lower limit on the dust-to-gas mass ratio, due
solely to iron, of M_dust/M_gas>1.3x10^{-3} for our sample. The depletion
factors of different PNe cover about two orders of magnitude, probably
reflecting differences in the formation, growth, or destruction of their dust
grains. However, we do not find any systematic difference between the gaseous
iron abundances calculated for C-rich and O-rich PNe, suggesting similar iron
depletion efficiencies in both environments. The iron abundances of our sample
PNe are similar to those derived following the same procedure for a group of 10
Galactic H II regions. These high depletion factors argue for high depletion
efficiencies of refractory elements onto dust grains both in molecular clouds
and AGB stars, and low dust destruction efficiencies both in interstellar and
circumstellar ionized gas.
