Abstract: | This study evaluated the performance of photo-Fenton reaction initiated by the UV irradiation with H(2)O(2)/Fe(3+), denoted as UV/H(2)O(2)/Fe(3+), to decompose di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) in the aqueous solution. The concentration of total organic carbon (TOC) was chosen as a mineralization index of the decomposition of DBP by the UV/H(2)O(2)/Fe(3+) process. A second-order kinetic model with respect to TOC was adequately adopted to represent the mineralization of DBP by the UV/H(2)O(2)/Fe(3+) process. The experimental results of this study suggested that the dosages with 4.74 x 10(-5) mol min(-1)L(-1) H(2)O(2) and initial Fe(3+) loading concentration of 4.50 x 10(-4) mol L(-1) in the solution at pH 3.0 with 120 microW cm(-2) UV (312 nm) provided the optimal operation conditions for the mineralization of DBP (5 mg L(-1)) yielding a 92.4% mineralization efficiency at 90 min reaction time. |
