This study investigates the effects of the Fe2+ concentration and synthetic iron oxide catalysts on o-toluidine degradation using a fluidized-bed Fenton process. The mineralization ofo-toluidine in the synthetic catalyst system is also examined. The H3.5 and H7.3 Fe/SiO2 and A7.8 and A 12.5 Fe/SiO2 catalysts were successfully synthesized by adding H202 and injecting air process, respectively. The optimum initial ferrous ion concentration for degradation of 1 mM o-toluidine was 1 mM. Experimental results reveal that 1 mM o-toluidine can be 100% degraded at 60 and 120 min in the modified fluidized-bed Fenton process with A7.8 Fe/SiO2 and the conventional fluidized-bed Fenton process with SiO2 carrier, respectively, when the optimum conditions of 1mM Fe2+ and 17mM H202 at pH 3 were used. The A7.8 Fe/SiO2 catalyst had a stronger oxidation ability than the H3.5 Fe/SiO2, H7.3 Fe/SiO2 and A12.5 Fe/SiO2 catalysts, and was attributed to the high iron content on the surface of the SiO2 support. The Fenton and Fenton-like reactions occurred in the A7.8 Fe/SiO2 catalyst system. Degradation of o-toluidine in the Fenton-like process follows pseudo-first-order kinetics. The A7.8 Fe/SiO2 catalyst efficiently enhanced o-toluidine oxidation under the pH range of 2-4.
本研究采用流化床芬顿工艺考察了 Fe2+浓度和合成氧化铁催化剂对邻甲苯胺降解的影响,并考察了邻甲苯胺在合成催化剂体系中的矿化作用。通过添加 H2O2 和注入空气过程,成功合成了 H3.5 和 H7.3 Fe/SiO2 以及 A7.8 和 A12.5 Fe/SiO2 催化剂。降解 1mM 邻甲苯胺的最佳初始亚铁离子浓度为 1mM。实验结果表明,在优化条件下(pH 3 时分别为 1mM Fe2+和 17mM H2O2),在改性流化床芬顿工艺中使用 A7.8 Fe/SiO2 和传统流化床芬顿工艺中使用 SiO2 载体时,1mM o- 甲苯胺在 60 和 120 分钟内可完全降解。A7.8 Fe/SiO2 催化剂比 H3.5 Fe/SiO2、H7.3 Fe/SiO2 和 A12.5 Fe/SiO2 催化剂具有更强的氧化能力,这归因于 SiO2 载体表面的高铁含量。Fenton 和类 Fenton 反应发生在 A7.8 Fe/SiO2 催化剂体系中。类 Fenton 过程中邻甲苯胺的降解遵循准一级动力学。A7.8 Fe/SiO2 催化剂在 pH 值为 2-4 的范围内有效增强了邻甲苯胺的氧化。
