PG - 7380-7389 LID - 10.1021/acs.est.8b01662 [doi] AB - Chloride ion (Cl(-)) is one of the most common anions in the aqueous environment. A mathematical model was developed to determine and quantify the impact of Cl(-) on the oxidization rate of organic compounds at the beginning stage of the UV/persulfate (PS) and UV/H(2)O(2) processes. We examined two cases for the UV/PS process: (1) when the target organic compounds react only with sulfate radicals, the ratio of the destruction rate of the target organic compound when Cl(-) is present to the rate when Cl(-) is not present (designated as r(R)(Cl(-))/ r(R)) is no larger than 1.942%; and (2) when the target organic compounds can react with sulfate radicals, hydroxyl radicals and chlorine radicals, r(R)(Cl(-))/ r(R), can be no larger than 60%. Hence, Cl(-) significantly reduces the organic destruction rate in the UV/PS process. In the UV/H(2)O(2) process, we found that Cl(-) has a negligible effect on the organic-contaminant oxidation rate. Our simulation results agree with the experimental results very well. Accordingly, our mathematical model is a reliable method for determining whether Cl(-) will adversely impact organic compounds destruction by the UV/PS and UV/H(2)O(2) processes.
