AB  - The mineralization and biodegradability increase and their combination of two 
      traditional and two relatively new organic contaminants by Fenton reagents with 
      three different types of iron, Fe(2+), Fe(3+), and Fe(0) were investigated. The 
      traditional contaminants examined were trichloroethene (TCE) and 
      2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) while 1,4-dioxane (1,4-D) and 1,2,3-trichloropropane 
      (TCP) were studied for the relatively new contaminants. The mineralization and 
      biodegradability were represented by dissolved organic carbon (DOC) reduction and 
      the ratio of biodegradable dissolved organic carbon and DOC, respectively. For 
      all four contaminants, Fenton reagent using Fe(2+) was more effective in the DOC 
      reduction than Fenton reagents using Fe(3+) and Fe(0) in most cases. The types of 
      Fe that provided maximum biodegradability increase were not the same for all four 
      compounds, Fe(3+) for TCE, Fe(0) for 2,4-DCP, Fe(2+) for 1,4-D, and Fe(3+) for 
      TCP. When the combination of DOC elimination and biodegradability increase (least 
      refractory fraction) was considered, Fe(2+) was the best choice except for 
      2,4-DCP which was susceptible to Fe(0) catalyzed Fenton reagent the most. The 
      least refractory fractions remaining after 120 min of reaction were 20-25% for 
      TCE, 2,4-DCP, and TCP and 30-40% for 1,4-D. The iron type in Fenton reaction also 
      affected the type of mineralization kinetics of TCE, 2,4-DCP, and TCP as well as 
      the types of degradation by-products of these contaminants. Some of the 
      by-products found, such as isopropanol and propionic aldehyde, which were 
      produced from Fe(0) catalyzed Fenton degradation of TCP, have not been previously 
      reported.
