Improvement of the photo-Fenton performance at near neutral pH by the addition of tannic acid from tea leaves waste as a complexing agent in the Pb(II) photo-oxidation
Advanced Oxidation Processes
IIntroducing tannic acid from tea leaves waste as a complexing agent of Fe(III) into photo-Fenton process to prevent Fe(OH)3 precipitation at pH 7, and further to increase photo-Fenton activity in the near neutral pH for Pb(II) photo-oxidation is systematically addressed. The photo-Fenton process...
Conversion of the styrofoam waste into a high-capacity and recoverable adsorbent in the removing the toxic Pb(II) from water media
Water and Wastewater Treatment
The sequential nitration and magnetization of waste styrofoam to form a novel adsorbent has been investigated. The novelty of this study assigned approach lies in the introduction of an anionic surface on the styrofoam, enabling it to adsorb cationic Pb2+ ion, combined with its magnetic property...
Detoxification of As(III) in Aqueous Media by Using Photo-Fenton Method
Water and Wastewater Treatment
In this paper, photo-Fenton method has been systematically examined to oxidize the toxic and mobile As(III) in the solution by •OH radicals resulted from the reactions between Fe2+ and H2O2 under UV light, to form the less toxic and insoluble As(V). The effects of various experimental parameters...
Removal of methylene blue dye in water by using recoverable natural zeolite/Fe3O4 adsorbent
Water and Wastewater Treatment
In this paper, the low-cost and practical adsorption for removing methylene blue (MB) dye has been developed by using recoverable natural zeolite that was magnetized with Fe3O4. The magnetization was conducted by co-precipitation technique. The adsorbents obtained from the magnetization were...
Removal of Pb (II) Ions in The Aqueous Solution by Photo-Fenton Method
Advanced Oxidation Processes
Photo-Fenton for decreasing concentration of Pb(II) ions in the aqueous solution is systematically studied. The photo-Fenton process was carried out by batch technique, under UV light. The influences of process operating parameters were evaluated. The results of the research demonstrated that by...
