Abstract
In this work, the degradation efficiencies of bisphenol A (BPA) by Fenton reaction were compared systematically with varying cyclodextrins. The results showed that the removal rate of BPA displays a considerable increase by Fenton reaction in presence of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its derivatives. Specifically, 98±2% and 89±2% of BPA was removed with carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CMCD) and β-CD, respectively. Additionally, to understand the reaction mechanism, the structure activity of cyclodextrins with substrate and the kinetic of Fenton reaction with cyclodextrins have been investigated. Results showed that the structure activity was the major role for cyclodextrins in this system.
