Could Hydrogen Peroxide Photolysis Occur in the Absence of Transition Metals ?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quantum yields of hydrogen peroxide photolysis increase with the square root of concentration of added Cu(II). The cupric ions are photocatalytically active already at trace concentrations (10~7 M), i.e., at the concentrations present in any real reaction system. Hydrogen peroxide photolysis is completely suppressed on addition of complexing agents such as EDTA. It is believed that no hydrogen peroxide photolysis would occur in complete absence of photocatalytically active transition metal ions.

The effect of metal ions on the reaction of hydrogen peroxide with Kraft lignin model compounds
Peroxide bleaching is significantly affected by transition and alkaline earth metals. Isolating the effects of different transition and alkaline earth metals on the reactions of peroxide with different representative lignin structures allows the separation of the positive from the negative contributions of these metal ions. In this work, five monomeric or dimeric phenolic lignin model compounds...

The hydrogen peroxide treatment was able to remediate chlorophenols, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, diesel and transformer oil contaminated soil. Chemical treatment of contaminants adsorbed in peat resulted in lower contaminants’ removal and required higher addition of chemicals than the treatment of contaminants in sand. The hydrogen peroxide treatment was found to be feasible for soil reme...

Laboratory-made snow doped with either hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or formaldehyde (HCHO) was exposed to radiation in the UV and visible range resulting in a decomposition of both compounds. These experiments demonstrate that besides the photolysis of nitrate further photochemical reactions of atmospheric relevant compounds can take place in snow. Under similar conditions the decomposition of H2O2...
