The current study investigated the effects of S2O8(2-) and S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation processes on the biodegradable characteristics of an anaerobic stabilized leachate. Total COD removal efficiency was found to be 46% after S2O8(2-) oxidation (using 4.2 g S2O8(2-)/1g COD0, at pH 7, for 60 min reaction time and at 350 rpm shaking speed), and improved to 81% following S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation process (using 5.88 g S2O8(2-) dosage, 8.63 g H2O2 dosage, at pH 11 and for 120 min reaction time at 350 rpm). Biodegradability in terms of BOD5/COD ratio of the leachate enhanced from 0.09 to 0.1 and to 0.17 following S2O8(2-) and S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation processes, respectively. The fractions of COD were determined before and after each oxidation processes (S2O8(2-) and S2O8(2-)/H2O2). The fraction of biodegradable COD(bi) increased from 36% in raw leachate to 57% and 68% after applying S2O8(2-) and S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation, respectively. As for soluble COD(s), its removal efficiency was 39% and 78% following S2O8(2-) and S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation, respectively. The maximum removal for particulate COD was 94% and was obtained after 120 min of S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation. As a conclusion, S2O8(2-)/H2O2 oxidation could be an efficient method for improving the biodegradability of anaerobic stabilized leachate.

This study evaluates the combined use of H₂O₂ and thermally activated S₂O₈⁻ (T-PDS) for the degradation of phenolic compounds (PhOH) in wastewater, aiming to limit or eliminate sludge production. Phenolic compounds are common in industrial effluents, and their effective removal is crucial for reducing environmental impact. The study employs Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to optimise critical variables such as temperature, pH, and oxidant concentrations.

The specific detection of peroxydisulfate (SO, PDS) is significant and challenging due to the rapid development of PDS-related technologies and their widespread application in multiple fields. However, traditional analytical methods are mainly based on their strong oxidizing properties, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve specific identification and high sensitivity for PDS detection in complex water environments. Here, we purposely prepared amino-rich SiQDs (N-SiQDs) as an effective catalyst and introduced HO acts as a co-reactant for PDS activation and determination with strong intrinsic chemiluminescence (CL) emission.

Article Synopsis
- Persulfate (PS) is an important oxidant used to break down organic pollutants, and measuring its concentration accurately is essential for practical applications.
- Traditional iodometry methods can be unreliable due to interference from hydrogen peroxide (HO), which often skews PS readings.
- A new method that measures the oxidation of chloride ions (Cl) has been developed, allowing for accurate PS concentration determination without HO interference, showing strong performance in both laboratory and industrial settings.
Tailoring the Oxidizing Intermediate in the Fenton Reaction, OH⋅ or Fe=O, by Modifying the pK of the (HO)Fe(HO) Complex, and the Case of PDS - a DFT Study.

A DFT analysis of the Fenton and Fenton-like reactions points out that the pH effect on the nature of the oxidizing intermediate formed is due to a pK of the peroxide when hydroperoxides are used. When SO is used, the pH effect is due to the pK of one of the water ligands of the central iron cation. The results suggest that the choice of the hydroperoxide and the ligands present affects the pH at which the transition from the formation of hydroxyl radicals to the formation of Fe=O occurs.
