Organochlorine insecticide Lindane (gamma-Hexachlorocyclohexane) and its isomers (alpha, beta, delta-HCH) are recalcitrant and toxic compounds. They were progressively banished in most of the countries, because of their persistence and toxicity. Due to their nonselective production process and widespread use, they are still occurring in the environment. These insecticides and isomers were detected in all media like soil, ground water, sediments, vegetables and even in human tissues. In this study, UV, H2O2, UV+H2O2, Fenton's reagent, UV+Fenton's reagent, Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) have been applied for degradation of HCH isomers (a, beta, gamma and delta-HCH). The results revealed that the UV+H2O2 treatment was most effective, which could do 99% degradation of all isomers of HCH within 75 minutes. The results in detail are presented and discussed in this paper.
有机氯杀虫剂林丹(γ-六氯环己烷)及其异构体(α、β、δ-六氯环己烷)是难降解且有毒的化合物。由于其持久性和毒性,它们在大多数国家已逐渐被禁用。由于其生产过程无选择性且使用广泛,它们仍存在于环境中。在土壤、地下水、沉积物、蔬菜甚至人体组织等所有介质中都检测到了这些杀虫剂及其异构体。在本研究中,采用了紫外线、过氧化氢、紫外线+过氧化氢、芬顿试剂、紫外线+芬顿试剂、高级氧化工艺(AOP)来降解六氯环己烷异构体(α、β、γ和δ-六氯环己烷)。结果表明,紫外线+过氧化氢处理最为有效,能在75分钟内使六氯环己烷的所有异构体降解99%。本文详细介绍并讨论了相关结果。
