The presence of refractory organic compounds in wastewater is a global problem that requires innovative solutions. Advanced oxidation processes, including the Fenton oxidation process, offer promising alternatives for wastewater and water treatment. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the Fenton process principles, highlighting the main factors influencing its efficiency. It includes applications, kinetic and thermodynamic calculations, and a strong overview of the heterogeneous catalytic approach. The iron-based heterogeneous Fenton process, including nanoparticles, is highly efficient, environmentally friendly, and suitable for wastewater treatment and industrial wastewater. It demonstrates that the use of a catalyst can be recycled, making it a modern solution to the problem of degradation of hazardous compounds. The book is intended for professionals, researchers, upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in environmental engineering, materials science, chemistry, and those who work in wastewater management.
