Abstract
Goethite and lepidocrocite, as the main compositions of pipe deposits in the water distribution network, could be used as a catalyst for advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). This research utilizes them to activate PDS/H2O2 and PMS/H2O2 degrading the 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, respectively. To describe the incomplete degradation of pollutants and reflect the induction period, a modified first-order model has been proposed and used to analyze degradation differences under several key affecting factors. The results revealed that the PDS/H2O2 system has a synergy effect in the 2,4,6-trichlorophenol degradation process. The possible degradation pathways and intermediate products were confirmed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The paper provides a new idea for the effective use of pipe deposits to remove chlorophenols from drinking water, which is of great significance to ensure water quality safety.
