Ferroin in dyes degradation by Fenton-like process: a chemical waste recycling perspective

Published literature describes the formation of the Fe (II)–phenanthroline complex (ferroin) as a stop way for Fenton processes, reducing radical yield. By contrast, this study presents evidence that ferroin can be activated by UVA in mildly acidic media in a photo-Fenton-like process. Because ferro...
