Investigation of the parametar influences of UV/H2O2 process on humic acid degradation
Degradation of the humic acids (HA) in aqueous solution by UV radiation in the presence of H2O2 (UV/H2O2 process) was investigated. Low-pressure mercury vapor lamps with the emission maximum at 253.7 nm were used as a UV light source. Process efficiency was monitored by the UV/VIS spectrophotometric...
