Abstract

Nowadays, leaving industrial
wastewater into receiving environment causes serious environmental problems. In
this study, experimental studies on color and chemical oxygen demand (COD)
removal of paper industrial wastewater were carried out. In this context,
heterogeneous Fenton and photocatalytic oxidation processes were applied and
removal efficiencies were compared. The Fe(III)/MnO₂ catalyst
containing 8% w/w of iron ion was synthesized to be used in experimental
studies. The effects of parameters such as pH, catalyst amount, hydrogen
peroxide concentration and reaction time were investigated. At the end of the
experimental studies, 90% color and 55% COD removal efficiencies were obtained
in heterogeneous Fenton process after 120 minutes reaction time under optimum
conditions. After 60 minutes reaction time under the same optimum conditions,
97% color and 91% COD removal efficiencies were achieved in photocatalytic
oxidation process.
