Abstract:Organophosphonates are a group of chemicals that are
difficult
to be directly removed through coagulation and are recalcitrant to
conventional Fenton oxidation (pH 3.0). The excessive discharge of
these chemicals into the environment can lead to severe consequences.
In this study, we successfully addressed this challenge by introducing
a combined approach of Fenton oxidation followed by coagulation. For
the first time, Fenton oxidation was found to be effective for the
degradation of a representative phosphona… Show more
