Wastewaters from textile industry contain various pollutants including a high content of organic matter, surfactants, additives and dyes. Dyes have obtained notoriety as hazardous substances, because most of them are toxic and considered to be resistant to biodegradation. Recently, advanced oxidation processes (AOP) have received considerable attention because it is possible to degrade organic ...

Selective redox degradation of chlorinated aliphatics by Fenton reaction in pyrite suspension was investigated in a closed system. Carbon tetrachloride (CT) was used as a representative target of perchlorinated alkanes and trichloroethylene (TCE) was used as one of highly chlorinated alkenes. Degradation of CT in Fenton reaction was significantly enhanced by pyrite used as an iron source instea...

the saline tannery wastewater also contains the high concentration of organic materials and various chemical compounds like lime, sodium sulfite, sulfate ammonium, sodium chloride, disinfections, vegetable tannins, salts of chromium and chloride. in recent years different applications of advanced oxidation processes (aops) are applied to remove organic loading (cod) from wastewater. advanced ox...

In order to improve the degradation efficiency of pulping and papermaking wastewater, the combination oxidation process of Fenton with ultrasonic irradiation was carried out. The processes of ultrasonic irradiation alone and Fenton oxidation alone on pulping and papermaking wastewater treatment were optimized respectively. Basing on the optimum process of Fenton oxidation, the synergistic effec...

Early research on the Fenton reaction was mainly focused on organic synthesis, enzymatic reactions and the cell damage mechanism [2]. It was noted that in the presence of a catalyst, H2O2 can be efficiently decomposed to generate oxidative active substances with strong oxidizing power, and degrade a variety...

A series of photo-Fenton reactions have been performed for the degradation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in a 4.2-l reactor. The degradation reaction rate of TNT followed a pseudo-first-order behavior; and the rate constants for 2.4mW cm(-2)UV only, 2.4mW cm(-2)UV/H(2)O(2), Fenton, photo-Fenton (2.4mW cm(-2)) and photo-Fenton (4.7mW cm(-2)) were 0.002min(-1), 0.007min(-1), 0.014min(-1), 0.025m...

Assessment the efficiency of Fenton process (Fe 2+ /H2O2), versus photo-Fenton reaction (TiO2/Fe 2+ /H2O2/UV) for removal of Chloropyrifos, and COD from pesticide wastewater were investigated. Solar compound parabolic collectors (CPC) pilot scale with borosilicate tubes was used for photo-Fenton process. The effect of reaction time, initial pH and dosage of H2O2, FeSO4, TiO2 were studied for bo...

The hydroxyl radical (OH radical) formation rates from the photo-Fenton reaction in river and rain water samples were determined by using deferoxamine mesylate (DFOM), which makes a stable and strong complex with Fe(III), resulting in a suppression of the photo-Fenton reaction. The difference between the OH radical formation rates with and without added DFOM denotes the rate from the photo-Fent...
