A series of photo-Fenton reactions have been performed for the degradation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in a 4.2-l reactor. The degradation reaction rate of TNT followed a pseudo-first-order behavior; and the rate constants for 2.4mW cm(-2)UV only, 2.4mW cm(-2)UV/H(2)O(2), Fenton, photo-Fenton (2.4mW cm(-2)) and photo-Fenton (4.7mW cm(-2)) were 0.002min(-1), 0.007min(-1), 0.014min(-1), 0.025m...

A wet scrubbing process coupled with advanced oxidation processes (AOP) has raised great interest for the abatement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) owing to its strong oxidation capacity and few byproducts. Fenton as an AOP has been widely used in wastewater treatment. However, the dosing method of Fenton reagents is not suitable for the treatment of continuous-flow VOCs waste-gas since H2...

Leachate pollution is one of the main problems in landfilling. Among the most problematic parameters in stabilized leachate are COD, ammonia, and color. The treatment technology that can be used may differ based on the type of leachate produced. Even after treatment, the effluent characteristics are always hard to comply with the discharge standard. Ozonation is one of the chemical processes th...

*Corresponding author Email: [email protected] In this work, the treatment of organics present in printing ink wastewaters such as dyes (methylene blue and rhodamine B), surfactants (sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate), and solvents (ethylene glycol), as well as actual printing ink wastewaters by advanced oxidation processes, namely conductive diamond electrochemical oxidation (CDEO), Fenton...

A sequential treatment of ozonation followed by a Fenton or photo-Fenton process, using black light lamps (365 nm) in this latter case, has been applied to remove a mixture of pharmaceutical compounds and the generated by-products both in ultrapure and secondary treated wastewater. The scientifictechnological innovation of this study stems from the in situ generation of hydrogen peroxide from t...

Many types of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), namely Fenton (Fe 2+ /H2O2) with different doses, Fenton-like (UV/Fe 2+ /H2O2), photo-Fenton (Fe 2+ /H2O2/TiO2), and plasma technology have been investigated for the removal of organic matters (COD content) from landfill leachate. Fenton's oxidation was the most effective as the most effective ratio 1/10 (Fe 2+ /H2O2) which allow the COD remova...

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...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com the reaction called the Fenton method [1]. Early research on the Fenton reaction was mainly focused on organic synthesis, enzymatic reactions and the cell damage mechanism [2]. It was noted that in the presence of a catalyst, H2O2 can be efficiently decomposed to generate oxidative active substances with strong oxidizing power, and degrade a variety...
