Greener And Expedient Approach for the Wastewater Treatment by Fenton and Photo-Fenton Processes: A Review

Abstract: Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) have emerged as a promising technology for the treatment of wastewaters containing toxic, recalcitrant organic compounds such as dyes, pesticides etc. This review paper focuses on the Fenton and photo- Fenton technique which is one of the most efficient AOPs developed to decolorize and/or degrade organic pollutants. This oxidation method can produce biodegradable intermediates and mineralize complex organic pollutants effectively and efficiently. In this paper Fenton and pho… Show more

“…14 The conventional Fenton process (Fe 2 +/H 2 O 2 ) owing to working in an extremely acid solution (pH <4) and due to the formation of ferric hydroxide sludge during wastewater treatment is not suitable for practical applications. 15,16 Hence, an alternative Fenton-like catalyst substitute Fe 2 +/ H 2 O 2 is desirable to overcome the aforementioned problems.…”

“…For the treatment of generated wastewater, various conventional and non-conventional methods like coagulation method [31], biological method [32], ion exchange method have been used, but among these methods, advanced oxidation technology (AOTs) is very effective comparatively [16,33]. During advanced oxidation reaction process, an oxidizing agent (•OH radical) reacts with pollutant and degrades almost all the harmful recalcitrant compounds into CO2, H2O, and inorganic salts [34]. Hydroxyl radical (•OH) is one of the strongest oxidizing oxidants (E 0 =2.73 V).…”
