Abstract

The decomposition of radical hydrogen peroxide has aroused great interest from the scientific  community due to the numerous possible applications, mainly concerning to the treatment of effluents.  However, it is important to find new precursors for radical H2O2 decomposition. The potential of  halogens (non-metals) iodine, chlorine, and bromine, in the form of iodide (I-), chloride (Cl-), and  bromide (Br-) ions, as catalytic precursors of the radical decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide, was  evaluated. A solution of methylene blue was used as a model molecule of a contaminant to prove the  radical mechanism from the effect of the organic compound on the volume of O2 generated. The results  of the experiments showed that iodide at acidic pH can act as a catalyst for the radical H2O2 decomposition mechanism in a spontaneous redox process (positive ΔE°). In contrast, the chloride ion  showed slow decomposition kinetics of hydrogen peroxide (more than 72h), and the bromide ion was  not characterized as a catalyst for H2O2 decomposition. Finally, a reduction in the production of O2 is  observed for the reaction with iodide ion in the presence of the organic contaminant in relation to the  experiment with only water and H2O2.
