英文摘要	The low molar absorption coefficient of H2O2 limits the ultraviolet (UV)/H2O2 process, making it a desirable target to enhance the UV/H2O2 process for organic micropollutant degradation. Therefore, this study investigated the impact of iron-containing coagulants (Fe-coagulants) on micropollutant degradation by UV/H2O2 process. Three typical Fe-coagulants (i.e., polymeric ferric sulfate, polymeric aluminum ferric sulfate, and FeCl3) exhibited the enhancement of sulfamethazine degradation during the UV/H2O2 process. The maximum increasing ratio of the degradation rate constant reached 40%. The pH and Fe-coagulant concentration effects, as well as residual H2O2 were examined. The principal mechanism of micropollutant degradation enhancement via the Fe-coagulants was the photo-Fenton-like reaction between Fe(III) on the Fe-coagulant surface and H2O2 under UV irradiation. Then the influence of Fe-coagulant particle size was discussed. Smaller particles (<0.22 mu m), with a lower iron content, a larger specific surface area, and a stronger optical scattering effect, exhibited a greater enhancement on the UV/H2O2 process as compared with larger particles (>0.22 mu m). Finally, the enhancement effect of the Fe-coagulants was verified on two water samples from a water treatment plant, which were either pre-coagulation or sand filtered samples. This study explored an existing heterogeneous catalysis process in drinking water treatment, which provides additional information for coagulant selection and improvements to the treatment process for micropollutant removal.
