Abstract

This study concerns a novel process for the treatment of industrial aqueous pharmaceutical effluents. In our case, it is diclofenac sodium loaded with an organic matter. The former is difficult to be treated biologically. This hybrid process couples photofenton and adsorption on commercial bentonite within a single reactor. The efficiency of an advanced oxidation process, which is photo-fenton on diclofenac, has been tested. We attempt to increase the elimination efficiency by acting on pH, H2O2/Fe2+ ratio, and the initial pollutant concentration. The maximum yield achieved is 65%. In order to complete the elimination of our pollutant we have used adsorption on commercial bentonite, the various degradation parameters have been optimized: contact time, mass of the adsorbent, and concentration of the pollutant. The combination of the two processes photo-fenton/adsorption allowed us to increase the removal efficiency, which reached 87%.
