“…Among AOPs, Fenton's reagent has been used (either alone or in combination with other treatments) as a chemical process for the treatment of a wide range of wastewaters. Recent applications of Fenton´s reagent include the pre-treatment of olive mill wastewater (Lucas & Peres, 2009), the treatment of landfill leachate (Deng & Englehardt, 2006;Zhang et al, 2005), copper mine wastewater (Mahiroglu et al, 2009), water-based printing ink wastewater (Ma & Xia, 2009) and cosmetic wastewaters (Bautista et al, 2007), the degradation of pesticide (Li et al, 2009;Chen et al, 2007), antibiotic (Ay & Kargi, 2010;Elmolla & Chaudhuri, 2009), high-strength livestock wastewater (Lee & Shoda, 2008) and organic compounds of nuclear laundry water (Vilve et al, 2009), the oxidation of combined industrial and domestic wastewater (Badawy & Ali, 2006), the pre-oxidation of pharmaceutical wastewaters (Martínez et al, 2003), the treatment of water-based paint wastewater (Kurt et al, 2006) and cellulose bleaching effluents (Torrades et al, 2003), the degradation of the explosives 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) after iron pretreatment (Oh et al, 2003), and the treatment of different streams of textile wastewaters, such as the treatment of hot desizing wastewaters (Lin & Lo, 1997), and the treatment of dye wastewaters (Wang et al, 2008;Gulkaya et al, 2006). Fenton´s reagent is also combined with biological process, as a pre-treatment to enhance the biodegradability of the recalcitrant compounds and lower the toxicity (Padoley et al, 2011, Mandal et al, 2010, Badawy et al, 2009 or as a post-treatment to improve the efficiency of the wastewater treatment (Ben et al, 2009, Yetilmezsoy & Sakar, 2008).…”

Today the management of solid waste and wastewater is a major concern for humanity. In the last decade, traces of pharmaceuticals have been reported in the water cycle and have raised concerns among regulators, water suppliers and the public regarding the potential risks to human health. This study evaluated solid waste management in the state of Minas Gerais and concluded that the main fate of hazardous waste has been incineration, while the non-hazardous waste has been recycled or sent to landfills. However, complaints to the Environmental Agency -FEAM have indicated that a significant number of companies just send their hazardous wastes to landfills or even to garbage dumps, thus highlighting the urgent need for adequate waste management in Minas Gerais. Most of the pharmaceutical companies in Minas Gerais use conventional wastewater treatment. Mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization (ESI-MS) showed that the treatment routes adopted by the two 2 selected pharmaceutical industries were not effective enough since residues and degradation products of antibiotics were detected. The physicochemical analysis of the effluents showed variability in their characteristics, which may influence their treatability. The degradation assay with Fenton's reagent stood out as a promising route in achieving a higher removal capacity compared to the conventional treatment. This study contributes to enhancing our knowledge of the management of wastewater as well as of solid waste from the pharmaceutical industry in Minas Gerais and points out the need for further research.

Na ultima década, a detecção de traços de medicamentos no ciclo da água tem sido reportada e tem gerado preocupação entre os agentes reguladores, fornecedores de água e público devido os riscos potenciais para a saúde humana. As empresas farmacêuticas, em Minas Gerais, aplicam tratamentos convencionais para as águas residuais e não há praticamente avaliação sobre a eficiência de remoção de resíduos de antibióticos. Este estudo avaliou a gestão de resíduos sólidos e concluiu que o destino principal foi, para o caso de resíduos perigosos, a incineração e, para os não perigosos, a reciclagem e o aterro sanitário. No entanto, denúncias apresentadas à Agência Ambiental -FEAM indicam que número significativo de empresas envia seus resíduos perigosos para aterros sanitários e até mesmo para lixões, ressaltando, assim, a necessidade urgente de adequada gestão dos resíduos gerados. A espectrometria de massas com ionização electrospray (ESI-MS) mostrou que a rota de tratamento convencional adotada por duas empresas do setor selecionadas não foi suficientemente eficaz, uma vez que resíduos e fragmentos de antibióticos foram detectados. Os resultados da caracterização físico-química de e...

“…The mechanism of heterogeneous Fenton can be illustrated using the reactions (1)- (5). The Fe(III) on the surface of catalyst is reduced to Fe(II), and then the Fe(II) reacts with H 2 O 2 to produce the • OH radicals.…”

“…Homogeneous Fenton process, which generate hydroxyl radicals in the presence of Fe(II) and hydrogen peroxide, has been one of the most common homogeneous systems proposed for treatment of organic pollutants [3][4][5]. However, the reacted iron ions need to be separated from the system at the end of the reaction, which requires a complex and expensive removal process.…”
