Abstract
To surmount the obstacles of traditional Fenton method and synchronously utilize Cu2+ and polyphe-nol in water,an improved Fenton-like reaction applying calcium peroxide(CaO2)as H2O2 source and regulating by the complex of Cu2+-tartaric acid(TA,a representative of polyphenol)was constructed.A typical antibiotic,metronidazole(MTZ)could be effectively eliminated by the Cu2+/TA/CaO2 system,and the optimized parameters were as follows:0.1mmol/L Cu2+,2mmol/L TA,2mmol/L CaO2,and initial pH 5.UV spectrum confirmed the formation of Cu2+-TA complex,which promoted the Cu2+/Cu+ circulation through decreasing the Cu2+/Cu+ couple redox potential,which further enhanced the H2O2 decompo-sition and the formation of reactive species.Hydroxyl radical was dominant for MTZ degradation,fol-lowed by oxygen and superoxide radical.The degradation intermediates of MTZ were detected and their evolution way was speculated.Furthermore,the ternary process showed a wide pH tolerance(3-8)for removing MTZ and broad applicability for eliminating other dyes and antibiotics.This work provided a reference for Cu-based Fenton-like strategy for organic wastewater settlement.
