Diazinon pesticide photocatalytic degradation in aqueous matrices based on reductive agent release in iodide exciting under UV Irradiation

Diazinon and MCPA photo-reduction with sulfite excitation under UV irradiation and reducing agents’ generation

“…Also, in IUPAC model it increases from 0.94 to 2.139 kWh.m −3 of treatment. Azarpira et al, in the diazinon photo-reduction by UV/Iodide method, concluded that in two conventional and baffled reactors, the pseudo-first-order reaction constant ( k obs ) increased from 0.1 to 0.14 min −1 , and the reaction rate ( r obs ) increased from 1.54 to 2.06 mg L −1 min −1 and also the E EO changed from 8.61 to 5.37 kw h m −3 [ 4 ].…”

“…This insecticide is also absorbed through the skin of the body, so contact with the skin should be avoided [ 1 , 2 ]. This insecticide can be used successfully to control pests that live inside plant tissues (minnows and stem eaters) by having the ability to penetrate the wax layers of plant tissues [ 3 , 4 ]. In recent years, DIZ is one of the most widely used organophosphate pesticides, which plays an important role in chemical pest control by controlling sucking pests in orchards and farms [ 5 , 6 ].…”

Multi-criteria decision-making for prioritizing photocatalytic processes followed by TiO2-MIL-53(Fe) characterization and application for diazinon removal

“…Numerous treatment technologies can be practiced for diazinon removal, including adsorption 7 , electrocoagulation 8 , biological processes 9 , membrane technologies 10 , sonochemical degradation 11 , and Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs), including photocatalytic processes 12 . Photocatalytic processes to remove organic pollutants usually require a semiconductor as the photocatalyst to be excited by irradiation under visible or ultraviolet light 13 .…”
