TRIBROMOPHENOL DEGRADATION BY A CATECHOL-DRTVEN FENTON REACTION

Tribromophenol (TBP) is a halogenated phenol mainly used as an intermediate of flame retardants in the electronics manufacturing industry as well as a fungicide in the wood industry to prevent fungal wood stain and decay. As a result of this massive use, its bio-availability, toxicity, and environme...
