Mixtures of monoazo Tartrazine, diazo Ponceau SS and triazo Direct Blue 71 dyes with 105 mg L-1 of total organic carbon (TOC) in 0.050 M Na2SO4 at pH 3.0 have been treated by solar photoelectro-Fenton (SPEF). Experiments were carried out in a 2.5 L pre-pilot plant with a Pt/air-diffusion cell coupled to a solar planar photoreactor. Comparative trials were made by anodic oxidation with electrogenerated H2O2 (AO-H2O2) and electro-Fenton (EF) to better understand the role of oxidizing agents. AO-H2O2 gave poor degradation due to the low oxidation ability of OH formed at the Pt anode and H2O2 produced at the cathode. Similar color removal was achieved in EF and SPEF because the main oxidant was OH formed in the bulk from Fenton's reaction. EF yielded partial mineralization by formation of molecules with high stability against OH. In contrast, these by-products were rapidly photolyzed under sunlight irradiation in SPEF, which was the most powerful treatment. Up to 8 linear final carboxylic acids were detected, along with the release of sulfate and ammonium ions. The effect of Fe2+ and azo dye concentrations, and current density over the SPEF performance was assessed. Total mineralization of azo dyes mixtures occurred when operating up to 105 mg L-1 TOC with 0.50 mM Fe2+ at 100 mA cm-2.
