Abstract

This study was focused on the application of Fenton (Fe+2/H2O2) process for the decolorization of colored synthetic wastewaters. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and C.I. Reactive Blue 21 (RB 21) were used as model pollutants. The selection of the optimal operating conditions (initial concentration of H2O2 and Fe2+) was performed in a batch reactor. The optimal reacting conditions were experimentally determined and it was found to be initial [H2O2] 20 mg/L, [Fe+2] 37.5 mg/L for synthetic wastewater containing [RB 21] 50 mg/L and [PVA] 100 mg/L at pH 3 with room temperature.
