Removal of methyl tertiary butyl ether fromsynthetic wastewater

الملخص EN

Methyle tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) is the most fuel additive used through the world.

Thus, it has been reported that MTBE is the second high concentration contamination found in ground water.

Study of the effect of reaction time and reaction temperature of 25 to 55° C on the kinetic of chemical oxidation has been done with 3000 ppm MTBE in water at pH range 3 to 7 and 1 : 1 hydrogen peroxide to Fenton’s reagent ratio.

Also, Kinetic analysis was carried out to determine reaction order and activation energy for the reaction of MTBE disappearance during the reaction with Fenton’s reagent.
