摘要

The photo-Fenton process is a promising technology for wastewater treatment. In this work, a photo-Fenton catalyst, Ag3[Fe(CN)6], was synthesized by ion-exchange between AgNO3 and K3[Fe(CN)6]. In the presence of H2O2, this catalyst could degrade rhodamine B (RhB) and reactive orange 16 (RO) under visible light irradiation. The degradation of both dyes was studied as a function of initial dye concentration, catalyst loading, H2O2 concentration, and initial pH. Results from trapping experiments confirmed that the hydroxyl radical was the dominant reactive species involved in the photo-Fenton degradation of the dyes. Mass spectrometry confirmed that the Ag3[Fe(CN)6] can degrade both RhB and RO into lower mass species. The obtained results showed that Ag3[Fe(CN)6] was a promising photo-Fenton catalyst that could degrade dyes in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation.
