Degradation of an azo dye, Reactive Red 195 was conducted with four oxidants including H2O2, sodium percarbonate (SPC), sodium perborate (SPB) and sodium persulfate (SPS) in the presence of Fe (III)-oxalate complex under light irradiation to investigate the feasibility of three solid oxidants as substitutes of H2O2 for building a novel solar light-driven Fenton system with the advantages of high stability, cost efficiency and environmental care. Some important effecting factors such as initial concentrations of Fe (III) ion, oxalate ion and oxidant, temperature and light irradiation were also examined and optimized with respect to dye degradation efficiency. The results indicates that dye could be completely degraded using each solid oxidant in place of H2O2 over 30 min with Fe (III)-oxalate complex under visible irradiation. SPC showed higher oxidizing performance compared with the other two solid oxidants, especially at higher temperature or in the presence of inorganic salt. Hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) was identified as the predominant reactive oxygen species for three solid oxidants, especially SPC. Sulfate radicals ((SO4-)-S-center dot) were found for SPS system. However, it has a less contribution to dye degradation than (OH)-O-center dot. Besides, superoxide radicals (O-2(-center dot)) also participated in dye degradation in all investigated systems. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
