Abstract

Fe-silicalite nano- and microcrystals as heterogeneous Fenton-type catalysts have been synthesized and characterized by dynamic light scattering, X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption measurements, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry, UV visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia. Catalytic performance of Fe-silicalites was studied in mineralization of EDTA by H2O2 at 303–353K and 60Co removal from EDTA chelates. The effect of activation by the acid treatment on the state of active sites, catalytic activity and stability of Fe-silicalites was studied. Fe-silicalites nanocrystals are more efficient catalysts vs. microcrystals due to enhanced catalytic sites accessibility.
