The application of kinetic probes that allow one to determine relative reactivities of biologically relevant substrates with oxidizing intermediates in the Fenton reagent (H2O2 plus Fe2+ in acidic aqueous solution) is described. These results lead to the conclusion that there are two key intermediates with very different reactivity patterns. One (X) is proposed to be an iron complex formed via ...

BACKGROUND The measurement of high-molecular-weight (HMW) adiponectin concentration provides valuable clinical information. However, the conventional ELISA method requires complicated and lengthy assay procedures to obtain assay results. METHODS We prepared new assay reagents based on chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) on a fully-automated analyzer system using the same IH7 monoclona...

The performance of modified Fenton (MF) treatment to promote PAH oxidation in artificially contaminated soil was investigated in packed soil column with a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) delivery system simulating in situ injection. Soil samples were spiked with phenanthrene (low molecular weight PAH) and fluoranthene (high molecular weight PAH) to an initial concentration of 500 mg/kg dried soil each...

This paper explains the Fenton process – Advanced Oxidation Process for treatment of industrial waste water and effect of various parameters on Fenton process. AOPs are the process that generates the hydroxyl radical that oxidizes the impurity compounds and purifies the waste water. For generation of hydroxyl radical there are many methods are available. Fenton process is an advanced oxidation ...

nitrate is one of the pollutants of groundwater and the great amount of nitrate in drinking water can bring about some hygienic problems such as methemoglobinema phenomena in children. therefore, this research aims to study the efficiency of photo- fenton in removing nitrate and investigating the variables affecting it in aqueous solutions. this research was carried out in water and wastewater ...

Background: This research studied the effect of UV light on pentachlorophenol (PCP) removal in the electro-Fenton (EF) process. Methods: PCP was used as the pollutant in this study. The effects of Fenton’s reagent, i.e. hydrogen peroxide concentration, solution pH, and treatment time by EF (EF) and photoelectro-Fenton (PEF) processes, were studied to determine rates of PCP removal. The r...

Background: Pharmaceuticals have arisen as emerging environmental pollutants due to their potential impact on humans, animals and microorganisms even at low concentrations. Conventional wastewater treatment plants are known to be ineffective for removal of many pharmaceuticals present in wastewater. Advanced oxidation processes are one of the most promising treatment technologies for degradatio...

This paper presents results of studies on an effect of humate (HS) on chemical (Fenton) and biological treatment of wastewater with high content of organic compounds and heavy metals. All studies focused on practical applications of HS, allowing reducing the concentration of the contaminants of concern before their discharge to the natural water bodies (or to the ground). Laboratory tests showe...

The performance of a new electro-Fenton process with Ti-based mixed metal oxides (Ti/MMO) cathode, a dimensionally stable electrode, is evaluated for degrading contaminants of emerging concerns (CECs) in aqueous solutions. Bisphenol A (422μgL(-1)) is completely degraded in an undivided cell using Ti/MMO as the cathode in the presence of 6.9mgL(-1) Fe(2+) within 20min under conditions of pH 4 an...
