Popis: | The degradation of phenylarsonic acid (PA) and its derivatives by hydrothermal treatment (HTT) was examined, especially focusing on the effect of adding H 2 O 2 upon the degradation efficiency. The degradation was assessed by the generation of arsenate resulting from the cleavage of As-C bonds in the PA derivatives. When PA (without substituents) was subjected to an HTT with H 2 O 2 (H 2 O 2 -HTT; 0.5-1% H 2 O 2 ) at 175-200 °C, PA was almost completely degraded into arsenate, whereas an HTT with NaOH (NaOH-HTT; 3 M NaOH) at the temperatures provided almost no degradation. The H 2 O 2 -HTT also worked well for the degradation of PA derivatives with hydroxy and/or nitro groups on the phenyl ring. However, the degradation of aminophenylarsonic acids was not favorably performed by the H 2 O 2 -HTT. The effect of the structure of PA derivatives upon the degradation susceptibility was discussed. A photocatalytic reaction using TiO 2 was also attempted for the degradation of PA derivatives. |
