Comparison of ultraviolet radiation/hydrogen peroxide, Fenton and photo-Fenton processes for the decolorization of reactive dyes
Abstract
The effectivness of UV/H2O2 process, Fenton and photo-Fenton process at decolorization of commercially important textile dyes Reactive Orange 4 (RO4) and Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) was evaluated. The effect of operational condition such as initial pH, initial H2O2 concentration, initial Fe2+ concentration and initial dye concentration on decolorization of RO4 and RB19 was studied. The photo-Fenton process is found to be more efficient than UV/H2O2 and Fenton process for decolorization of simulated dye bath effluent and solutions of the dyes in water alone under optimum conditions. In simulated dye bath the removal efficiency was slightly lower than for the solutions of the dyes in water alone for both dyes types. The results revealed that the tested advanced oxidation processes were very effective for decolorization of RO4 and RB19 in aqueous solution.

In the citing paper
“Using the same dye on a much higher starting concentration (about 2,000 mg/L) and examining its d ecolorisation by Fenton's reaction, photocatalysis and UV radiation, as single methods or combined, Radovic resulted in generally very high dye removal (above 90 % for a combination of Fenton reagent coupled with photocatalysis) 70 .”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
