The Mechanism of the Oxidation of 2-Propanol by Peroxydisulfate Ion

Direct chemical oxidation: a non-thermal technology for the destruction of organic wastes

“…[18][19][20][29][30][31][32][33][34] These catalyst include the ions of Cu [29][30][31]34], Ag [18][19][20][32][33][34] and Fe [34]. In addition, a number of organic substrates were studied, including alcohols, aldehydes, and ethers.…”

“…Previous work on the effect of transition metal catalysts on the rate of oxidation of organic substrates by peroxydisulfate [18][19][20][29][30][31][32][33][34] focused primarily on the decomposition of the peroxydisulfate, and not on the mineralization of the organic. For the work detailed in this report, it was felt that a more realistic approach with regard to waste treatment by DCO was to measure the overall Destruction and Removal Efficiencies (DRE's) on a matrix of catalysts, temperatures, and organic substrates.…”

Transition Metal Catalysts for the Ambient Temperature Destruction of Organic Wastes Using Peroxydisulfate

“…Previous work on the effect of transition metal catalysts on the rate of oxidation of organic substrates by peroxydisulfate [l&20, [29][30][31][32][33][34] focused primarily on the decomposition of the peroxydisulfate, and not on the mineralization of the organic. For the current work, it was felt that a more.…”

“…This has been noted before in the literature. [l&20, [29][30][31][32][33][34] The above results lead to the conclusion that catalysis of organic destmction by peroxydisulfate is merely due to the formation of another, favorably solvated transition metal cation with a high oxidation potential.…”
