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 Due to the presence of non-biodegradable and toxic compounds, textile wastewater is difficult to treat by conventional methods. In the present study, Electrochemical Fenton (EF) and Chemical Fenton (CF) processes were studied and compared for the treatment of real textile wastewater. The effects of electrical current, ferrous ion, hydrogen peroxide concentration and reaction time on ...

background: car wash waste water contains several contaminants such as organic matter, oil, grease, detergents and phosphates, all of which are harmful for the environment. in this study, the application of electrocoagulation (ec) to treat car wash waste water has been studied, and the operating parameters optimized. the electro-fenton (ef) for further contaminant removal was also investigated....

Combination of electro-Fenton (EF) process with other advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is found very much effective for water and wastewater treatment. The combined including sono-EF (SEF), photo-EF (PEF), electro-peroxone, ferrate-EF EF persulfate allow enhancing the mineralization efficiency treatment as well reducing operational cost toxicity treated wastewater. Even though, there are sev...

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...

The mineralization of tetracycline by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) as well the study toxicity its intermediates and degradation products are presented. Electro-Fenton (EF), anodic (AO), electro-Fenton coupled with (EF/AO) were used to degrade on carbon felt (cathode) a sub-stoichiometric titanium oxide (Ti4O7) layer deposited Ti (anode). As compared EF AO, EF/AO system r...

Pentadecafluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is environmentally persistent, bioaccumulative, globally distributed and dangerous to human beings. Thus, the degradation of PFOA with effective method remains further exploration. Here, an Electro-Fenton (EF) system was studied for efficient PFOA degradation, and where a new composite material ferrous hierarchically porous carbon (FHPC) prepared by high temp...

The treatment of hospital wastewater is very complex, so treating polluted human urine a significant challenge. Here, we tested novel MMO-Ti/RuO2IrO2 electrode to reduce the ecotoxicity risk urines contaminated with antibiotics. This was used as anode in electro-Fenton (EF) and photoelectro-Fenton (PhEF) processes. results were compared those obtained using boron-doped diamond (BDD) anode, well...

The electro-Fenton (EF) process is a powerful electrochemical advanced oxidation process. Its development has progressed over the past three decades as clean and effective technique for wastewater treatment. Even though conventional EF been shown to be efficient degradation/mineralization of toxic and/or persistent organic pollutants; it still suffers from some downsides industrial-scale develo...
