Summary: A low-cost catalyst was prepared by ion exchange and calcination, using natural Maghnia sodic bentonite as the precursor. This catalyst showed high catalytic activity in the removal of methyl orange dye by heterogeneous Fenton oxidation. The clay structure was preserved with increased iron content, and the specific surface area increased after the ion exchange treatment.

Summary: In this study, magnetite fish scales and tea waste were used as adsorbents for Cu(II) cations and then applied as photo-Fenton catalysts to degrade methyl orange. The effects of different factors on the degradation efficiency were investigated and the catalytic action was attributed to the formation of hydroxyl radicals. The results showed that Cu-MFS and Cu-MTW exhibited high degradation efficiency and good stability.

Summary: The selective decolorization of mixed dyestuffs was achieved using a heterogeneous catalyst. Cu/Fe@biochar composites with varying amounts of copper and iron were prepared and showed excellent catalytic performance in degrading methyl orange and methylene blue. The composite with the highest metal component (294.44 mg/g iron and 16.22 mg/g copper) could decolorize 97.35% of methyl orange in 60 minutes and 100% of methylene blue in 10 minutes. The selectivity of the degradation was influenced by competitive adsorption and the phase where the dyestuffs were degraded, and depended on the catalyst's performance.

Summary: By modifying Fe3O4/schwertmannite catalyst, the spontaneous generation of H2O2 and Fenton reaction for pollutant degradation in wastewater treatment can be achieved. Carbon modification enhances the selectivity and efficiency of the catalyst, which can also produce H2O2 at a wide range of pH values.

Summary: Peroxidase-like catalysts are safe and low-cost alternatives for constructing sustainable cathodic heterogeneous electro-Fenton (CHEF) catalysts for water purification. However, understanding the structure-property relationship of enzyme-like catalysts is a pressing challenge for practical advancements in water and wastewater treatment using CHEF processes.

Summary: The removal of methyl orange anionic dye was studied using composite beads as catalysts in a heterogeneous photo-Fenton process. The Alg-mHAp catalyst showed the highest efficiency at optimal pH, while increasing catalyst dosage and UV intensity improved removal percentage. However, excessive hydrogen peroxide concentration led to decreased effectiveness, and higher initial dye concentration resulted in lower removal rates for all catalysts.

Summary: In this study, a new material, activated carbon decorated with magnetite nanoparticles, was used for the removal of ciprofloxacin using a photo-Fenton-based process. The results showed that the AC4/F catalyst was the most efficient material for ciprofloxacin removal at pH 2.0. The mechanism of the reaction was found to be highly dependent on the interaction between H2O2 and the hybrid surface catalyst, rather than the adsorption of ciprofloxacin.

Summary: The large amount of contaminated industrial wastewater has raised concerns among researchers and environmentalists. The use of Fenton processes has been considered as a potential alternative to treat persistent dyes in industrial effluents. Fe2O3/MCM-41 catalysts with different SiO2/Fe2O3 ratios were synthesized, with SiO2/Fe2O3=10 showing the highest activity in degrading methyl orange dye, achieving 70% color removal and enhancing organic matter mineralization.
