the heterogeneous photo-fenton degradation of crystal violet under visible light has been investigated usingcopper modified iron oxide. the photocatalyst has been prepared by coprecipitation method. the rate ofphotocatalyic degradation of dye was monitored spectrophotometrically. it has been observed thatphotocatalytic degradation follows pseudo first order kinetics. the effect of various param...

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...

Fenton oxidation technology is the general strategy for the treatment of organic compounds-contained wastewater. However, a considerable amount of ferric sludge was produced during the Fenton process as secondary wastes, which were needed to be further removed from the effluent and treated. In this study, heterogeneous catalysts based on ferrite oxide (Cu-Fe-Ce-O) were synthesized and character...

Fenton and Fenton-like processes, both in homogeneous and heterogeneous phases, have been applied to an aqueous solution containing the dye AR 14 in order to study the mineralization and toxicity of the solutions generated after color elimination. The mineralization of AR 14 occurred slower than the decolorization. The Microtox analysis of the treated solutions showed low toxicity intrinsic to ...

A novel modified Fenton process using heterogeneous catalyst (swarf) was developed to catalyze the oxidation reaction of azo dye Acid Red 18. It was found that swarf could be used to replace iron salts as a catalyst for the Fenton reaction. The examined continuous Fenton process proved to be very efficient for decolorization of simulated wastewater containing 100 mg/dm3 Acid Red 18. Performance...

A highly active heterogeneous Fenton catalyst was fabricated by impregnating iron oxide nanoparticles in alumina coated mesoporous SBA-15 silica.

Bi25FeO40 microtetrahedra, microcubes and microspheres were successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal process and by adding different additive agents. The formation mechanism of Bi25FeO40 microcrystals was proposed; the additive agents had important influences on the morphology and facet exposure of the products. The catalytic activity of these materials was evaluated by the degradation...

The synergistic effect of ultrasound, the heterogeneous Fenton reaction and photocatalysis was studied using a nickel foam (NF)-supporting TiO₂ system and rhodamine B (RhB) as a target. The NF-supporting TiO₂ system was prepared by depositing TiO₂ on the skeleton of NF repeatedly and then calcining it. To optimize the conditions and parameters, the catalytic activity was tested in four systems ...

This paper reports on the development of hybrid water treatment technologies that take advantage of the attributes of activated carbon adsorption and Fenton oxidation through the development of novel hybrid process schemes: i) a continuous Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) – Fenton process using a dilute suspension of PAC in a well-mixed reactor vessel connected to a submerged ultrafiltration (UF...
