Investigation of the destruction of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) under the influence of UV radiation from the KrCl excilamp with the use of additives of hydrogen peroxide, the Fenton reagent. Effective rate constants of degradation reactions of the initial compound were calculated. The estimation of efficiency of both each system separately, and together is given. The use of hydrogen peroxide additives and Fenton's reagent is due to the fact that the use of direct photolysis in some systems is ineffective. Addition of hydrogen peroxide in such cases increases the efficiency, due to the formation of active forms of oxygen in aqueous solutions. Thus, studies have been carried out to find the most effective amount of hydrogen peroxide additive and to create the most effective system for the destruction of chlorinated phenoxy acids when excited by a KrCl excilamp (222 nm).
Spectroscopy and photochemistry of humic acids are discussed. The samples of HAs fractions were obtained from Fluka Chemical Co and prepared from peat of Western Siberia region. The comparative analysis of these acids with the sample of humic acids allocated from brown coal is carried out. A specific feature of the reactor is the use of barrier discharge excilamp (KrCl) with radiation wavelength λ = 222 nm. Influence of the received humic acids on process of photodegradation of herbicide - 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is considered.
