AbstractThe Electro-Fenton is one of the processes based on the Fenton reaction, which have been investigated to improve the efficiency of classical Fenton treatment. The Electro-Fenton has been shown to be efficient in the degradation of many organic compounds. However, generally there is no true estimation of its efficiency compared to that of the classical Fenton process. This study aimed to compare the two processes using an experimental approach and modelling. First of all, degradation of hydrogen peroxide (externally applied) was studied. It was shown that the Electro-Fenton process needs smaller quantities of iron (5 times less) than the Fenton to decompose the same quantity of hydrogen peroxide. The Electro-Fenton process may also produce hydrogen peroxide in situ (oxygen reduction). This leads to an important reduction in the consumption of chemicals (hydrogen peroxide, small quantities of iron salt). Finally, a study of the degradation of phenol, when hydrogen peroxide was electrogenerated has shown the greater efficiency of Electro-Fenton compared to the Fenton process.

Advanced oxidation processes are considered as a promising technology for the removal of persistent organic pollutants from industrial wastewaters. In particular, the heterogeneous electro-Fenton (HEF) process has several advantages such as allowing the working pH to be circumneutral or alkaline, recovering and reusing the catalyst and avoiding the release of iron in the environment as a secondary pollutant. Among different iron-containing catalysts, studies using clay-modified electrodes in HEF process are the focus in this review. Fe(III)/Fe(II) within the lattice of clay minerals can possibly serve as catalytic sites in HEF process. The description of the preparation and application of clay-modified electrodes in the degradation of model pollutants in HEF process is detailed in the review. The absence of mediators responsible for transferring electrons to structural Fe(III) and regenerating catalytic Fe(II) was considered as a milestone in the field. A comprehensive review of studies investigating the use of electron transfer mediators as well as the mechanism behind electron transfer from and to the clay mineral structure was assembled in order to uncover other milestones to be addressed in this study area.

In this work, a classical linear control approach for the peroxide (H2O2) dosage in a photo-Fenton process is presented as a suitable solution for improving the efficiency in the treatment of recalcitrant organic compounds that cannot be degraded by classical wastewater treatment processes like anaerobic digestion. Experiments were carried out to degrade Lignin, Melanoidin, and Gallic acid, which are typical recalcitrant organic compounds present in some kinds of effluents such as vinasses from the Tequila and Cachaça industries. Experiments were carried in Open-Loop mode for obtaining the degradation model for the three compounds in the form of a Transfer Function, and in Closed-Loop mode for controlling the concentration of each compound. First-order Transfer Functions were obtained using the reaction curve method, and then, based on these models, the parameters of Proportional Integral controllers were calculated using the direct synthesis method. In the Closed-Loop experiments, the Total Organic Carbon removal was 39% for lignin, 7% for melanoidin, and 29% for Gallic acid, which were greater than those obtained in the Open-Loop experiments.

The cultivation of strawberries generally requires substantial use of pesticides, and abamectin is the active principle of one of those most commonly employed. Conventional water treatment does not remove pesticides efficiently, so there is a need to investigate alternative procedures. The use of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can achieve good results in removal of toxic organic compounds present in aqueous solutions. The photo-Fenton process, one example of an AOP, was employed to study the degradation of abamectin. Results showed that when natural water samples contaminated with abamectin were treated using the photo-Fenton process, 70% of the initial amount of the compound was removed within 60 minutes of UV irradiation, and 60% mineralization was observed after 180 minutes of reaction.
