摘要
A study on the destruction of 1,3-dinitrobenzene (1,3-DNB) in aqueous solution was carried out under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation alone and UV irradiation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The combination of UV and H2O2 is significantly effective in degrading 1,3-DNB in terms of initial reaction rate and the mineralization of organic carbons. The photodegradation process can be influenced in certain extent by increasing the content of H2O2 and the acidity of reaction matrices. It was found that a variety of phenolic intermediates and inorganic acid were formed via hydroxyl radicals attacking the parent compound. The UV/H2O2 oxidation of 1,3-DNB was characterized by pseudozero order reaction for the degradation of 1,3-DNB with a 20 times enhanced rate constant of 1.36 x 10(-7) M s(-1) and the initial rate constant was dependent on the initial concentration of 1,3-DNB.
