To establish an efficient oxidation process for carbofuran degradation, the effects of some operating parameters such as dosages of H(2)O(2), Fe(2+) and initial carbofuran concentrations were observed during carbofuran degradation by the ultrasound process, Fenton process and a combined ultrasound/Fenton process. The degradation kinetics of carbofuran was also examined based on the experimental...

Biological treatment, due to the formation of hazardous chemicals remove organic compounds such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC), has limited potential. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are regarded a viable alternative for treating molecules containing carbon-hydrogen bonds that cannot be broken down by traditional physico-chemical methods. In this investigatio...

Iodine is an essential micronutrient especially important in the neurodevelopment of infants. Spot samples of urinary iodine (UI) are used as an epidemiologic index of adult iodine nutrition. Individual infant iodine nutrition is of vital importance, but infant urine is difficult to collect, much less a 24 h sample. Monitoring the intake provides a pragmatic solution for determining infant iodi...

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...

this study deals with employing foundry sand (fs) as new low cost iron source in heterogeneousphoto-fenton process for the degradation of herbicide isoproturon (ipu) in aqueous solution. thecharacterization of the fs by eds confirmed presence of iron (23%) required for photo-fenton andsimultaneously confirmed absence of any heavy metals which may be susceptible to leaching. the photo-fenton eff...

degradation of acrylic water base color from synthetic wastewater by the fenton process was performed. experiments were conducted on the sample containing 100 and 400 mg/l of acrylic water base color. the study was performed for searching optimum values of feso4 and h2o2 concentration, ph and temperature. the h2o2 requirement seems to be related to initial cod of the sample. feso4/ h2o2 ratios ...
