Heat-activated persulfate was tested for destruction of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/furans (PCDD/Fs) in the laboratory. Combined technology of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) and in situ thermal remediation (ISTR) using heat-activated persulfate can be applied for destruction of the PCDD/Fs polluted soil and the PCDD/Fs containing fly ash from incineration process. To explore the treata...

The catalytic activity of four metal ions the fourth period table by D.I. Mendeleev in oxidation potassium iodide with ammonium persulfate. greatest increase reaction rate is observed presence copper sulfate, least cobalt and nickel salts

Abstract The role of high-valent Fe has rarely been explored in persulfate-based heterogeneous reaction. Herein, the existence Fe(IV) is verified a visible light-assisted FeTiO3/persulfate system using methyl phenyl sulfoxide as probe. FeTiO3/persulfate/light capable selectively degrading aromatic compounds with lower ionization potentials including tetracycline and bisphenol A by photo-generat...

oil exploration and production zones are very frequently contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons or its derivatives. the most important exploration and production zones are located in south-west and south of the country, in iran. masjed soleiman city is located on an oil field. the soil of this region has been affected by the petroleum composition. mach petroleum seepages and springs (asphalt,...

Emerging characteristics upon nitrogen-doping were differentiated in the activation of superoxides over single-walled carbon nanotubes. Both experimental and theoretical studies revealed that enhanced peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is ascribed to a nonradical process while persulfate (PS) activation is accelerated via directly oxidizing water, yet hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) activation is iner...

The oxidation of caffeine with persulfate and hydroxyl radicals in aqueous solution has been studied by EPR spectroscopy and HPLC analysis. In both cases the formation of 1,3,7-trimethyluric acid is observed as the main final product. A C8]OH radical adduct is postulated as the intermediate after reaction with OH~, and leads to the final product after further oxidation. This radical is too shor...
