Study of Fe2O3/H2O2 Fenton-Like Oxidation and Mineralization of Anion Surfactant

Article Preview

Abstract:

Fe2O3/H2O2, a kind of Fenton-like agent, was used to degrade an anion surfactant, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate(SDBS),in an aqueous solution. Through a number of batch degradation experiments under various conditions, it was found that the reactivity of the system increased by increasing temperature. The SDBS degradation ratio will increase by, respectively, increasing H2O2 concentration and Fe2O3 dosage at some extent, but too high H2O2 concentration or Fe2O3 dosage will decrease the degradation efficiency. pH value has some influences on the reactivity of the system; from 2 to 10, the system maintains high efficiencies all the time. It also can be seen that Fe2O3/H2O2 Fenton-like reaction almost has the same efficiency as homogeneous Fenton reaction, while the former has a widely pH range (2-10), and Fe2O3 can be separated easily and has no secondary pollutants.
