Abstract

In this paper, a novel improvement in the catalytic Fenton reaction system named MHACF-NH2-MIL-101(Cr) was constructed based on H2 and Pd/NH2-MIL-101(Cr). The improved system would result in an accelerated reduction in FeIII, and provide a continuous and fast degradation efficiency of the 10 mg L-1 4-chlorophenol which was the model contaminant by using only trace level FeII. The activity of Pd/NH2-MIL-101(Cr) decreased from 100% to about 35% gradually during the six consecutive reaction cycles of 18 h. That could be attributed to the irreversible structural damage of NH2-MIL-101(Cr).
