Three kinds of chelating agents were selected including citric acid, oxalic acid and ethylenediamine tetraaceatate(EDTA) to maintain available Fe2+. The results indicate that the concentration of chelating agent and ferrous ion didn't follow a linear relationship with the degradation rate of aniline. A 1/1 ratio of chelating agent/Fe2+ results in a higher degradation rate compared to the results by other ratios. The oxidation enhancement factor using oxalic acid was found to be relatively low. In contrast, citric acid is more suitable chelating agent in the ferrous iron activated persulfate system and aniline exhibits a highest degradation with a persulfate/Fe2+/citric acid/aniline molar ratio of 50/25/25/1 compared to other molar ratios.展开更多
