Insight into CaO2-based Fenton and Fenton-like systems: strategy for CaO2-based oxidation of organic contaminants.

ABSTRACT: This study conducted a comparison of the CaO2-based Fenton (CaO2/Fe(II)) and Fenton-like (CaO2/Fe(III)) systems on their benzene degradation performance. The H2O2, Fe(II), Fe(III), and HO● variations were investigated during the benzene degradation. Although benzene has been totally removed in the two systems, the variation patterns of the investigated parameters were different, leading to the different benzene degradation patterns. In terms of the Fe(II)/Fe(III) conversion, the CaO2/Fe(II) and CaO2/Fe(III) systems were actually inseparable and had the inherent mechanism relationships. For the CaO2/Fe(III) system, the initial Fe(III) must be converted to Fe(II), and then the consequent Fenton reaction could be later developed with the regenerated Fe(II). Moreover, some benzene degradation
