ABSTRACT
In this paper, the heterogeneous Fenton like-reaction for Arsenic-contaminated groundwater remediation based on the performance of FeSO4 as an efficient and green catalyst and CaO2 as a source of H2O2 was investigated. To intensify the heterogeneous Fenton process, three oxidants were tested sodium percarbonate (SPC), sodium persulfate (SPS), and calcium peroxide (CP). The results showed that CP and SPC had a synergetic effect on the rate of Arsenic degradation, while SPS had an antagonistic effect. On the other hand, inorganic ions such as Na+, Mg2+ have a very low impact on the Arsenic removal efficiency, while the anions Cl- and NO3- exhibited significant inhibition of Arsenic degradation. This effect may be imputed to the reaction and conversion of hydroxyl (HOâ¢) radicals to less reactive. Thus, HCO3- and humic acid dramatically raised the degradation rate. Also, the response Surface method based on Box-Behnken design was applied to examine the suitable modeling, and optimized condition of the Fenton like-reaction process, the maximum Arsenic removal efficiency of 94.91% is obtained when [Fe3+]0 = 1.97 mM, [CaO2]0 = 1.74 mM and initial pH = 4.67. The obtained results showed that the Fenton-like reaction is an effective and reliable process for arsenic removal from groundwater with low non-carcinogenic risk (HQ) and carcinogenic risk (CR) values.
