Through radical quenching experiments, this study speculated the possible reactive species responsible for aniline degradation, identifying holes and singlet molecular oxygen as the main degrading species. Additionally, three potential intermediates were identified and two degradation pathways were proposed using high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
The Fe-Mn oxides composite prepared by a chemical co-precipitation method was used as a heterogenous peroxydisulfate catalyst for the decomposition of aniline. This study investigated the mechanism of aniline degradation by PDS activated with catalyst. Reactive species resulting in the degradation of aniline was investigated via radical quenching experiments with different scavengers, including methanol, tert-butyl alcohol, EDTA and sodium azide. Based on the experiments made here, it is speculated that the predominant reactive species responsible for the degradation of aniline may be holes and singlet molecular oxygen rather than SO4 center dot- and center dot OH radicals. The degradation of compounds in catalyst/peroxydisulfate system was put forward. The three possible intermediates were speculated by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and two possible degradation pathways were proposed.
