We investigated the performance of a heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction (ZVI-Fenton, i.e. , ZVI + H 2 O where = zero-valent iron) towards removal potentially pathogenic bacteria in wastewater (WW). The effectiveness process was live (measured by flow cytometry) as well (identified 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing), antibiotic resistance genes and class 1 integrons (assessed qPCR). ZVI-Fenton result...

Introduction: Dyes are visible materials and are considered as one of the hazardous components that make up industrial waste. Therefore it is removed from bodies of water, using various methods. In this regard, the Fenton oxidation process is one of the most effective ways to remove colored contaminants in aquatic environments, which has many applications today. Materials and Methods: In this...

The aim of this work is to investigate the enhancement UVC-based tertiary treatments; for purpose, real wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent was spiked with a model pollutant, namely acetaminophen. UVC irradiation resulted in some photodegradation acetaminophen, which enhanced upon addition hydrogen peroxide (11 mM), but higher amounts oxidizing agent no significant acceleration process. ...

This paper evaluates the treatment of textile dyeing wastewater by using steel scrap as adsorbents and heterogeneous catalysts for Modified Fenton oxidation. The efficiency of the process was explored as a function of the experimental parameters: pH, hydrogen peroxide concentration and Steel scrap content. The composites with high steel scrap content were effective to adsorb colour and COD in t...

The homogeneous Fenton reaction is a complex chemical system that involves hydrogen peroxide and dissolved iron salts to generate highly reactive hydroxyl radicals in acidic solution. It is also known that the degradation rate of the Fenton system is significantly enhanced when the mixture is irradiated with UV or UV/Visible radiation. This photo-assisted Fenton process, or photo-Fenton process...

A composite of nano-zerovalent iron (nZVI) supported on granular activated carbon (GAC) was synthesizedthrough adsorption-reduction method, and its performances used as catalyst of Fenton-like were investigated to degrade methylene blue (MB) in model wastewater.Theresults show thathomogeneous dispersion of nZVI was greatly improved after supported on GAC. In comparison, the composite (nZVI/GAC)...

background: recently, there has been a great concern about the consumption of dyes because of their toxicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, and persistence in the aquatic environment. reactive dyes are widely used in textile industry. advanced oxidation processes are one of the cost-effective methods for the removal of these dyes. the main aims of this study were determining the feasibility of...
