Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo principal deste trabalho foi estudar a interferência de íons Cu2+ e Zn2+ na degradação do fenol pela reação de Fenton (Fe2+/Fe3+ + H2O2). Ambos os íons apresentaram efeito catalítico na reação de Fenton, porém atuam em etapas diferentes durante essa reação. Um dos primeiros intermediários da degradação, o catecol, é capaz de reduzir o Fe3+ a Fe2+, que, na presença de H2O2, cria um ciclo redox bastante eficiente. Portanto, este ciclo passa a ser o mecanismo principal da degradação térmica de fenol e seus produtos de oxidação nas etapas iniciais da reação. O íon Zn2+ interfere no tempo de persistência do catecol no meio reacional, provavelmente via estabilização do radical semiquinona correspondente. Um estudo da reação de cupro-Fenton (Cu2+ + H2O2) sugere dois possíveis papéis dos íons cobre: i) A reação de íons Cu1+ com H2O2 pode regenerar Cu2+ via uma reação análoga a de Fenton, formando radicais HO. Na presença de um excesso de H2O2, o radical HO pode ser consumido por outra molécula de H2O2 para produzir HOO•- e O2•-, (ii) Na etapa final da reação, quando o ferro(III) da solução é complexado na forma de ferrioxalato, os íons cobre assumem o papel de principal catalisador da degradação. Deste modo, a associação da reação de Fenton com a de cupro-Fenton resulta num aumento da eficiência global de mineralização do fenol

Abstract in English
The principal objective of this work was a study of the interference of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions on the degradation of phenol by the Fenton reaction (Fe2+/Fe3+ + H2O2). Both ions have a catalytic effect on the Fenton reaction, but act in different stages of the reaction. One of the first intermediates formed in the reaction, catechol, can reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+, which, in the presence of H2O2, forms an efficient catalytic redox cycle. Thus, this cycle becomes the principal route of thermal degradation of phenol and its oxidation products in the initial stages of the reaction. The Zn2+ interferes in the persistence time of catechol, probably via complexation with the corresponding semiquinone radical. A study of the cupro-Fenton reaction (Cu2+ + H2O2) suggests two principal modes of action of copper ions: (i) The reaction of Cu+ with H2O2 can regenerate Cu2+ via a reaction analogous to the Fenton reaction, forming the HO radical. In the presence of excess H2O2, the HO radical can react with another molecule of H2O2 to produce HOO•- and O2•-. (ii) In the final stages of the reaction, when the iron(III) in the solution is complexed in the form of ferrioxalate, the copper ions assume the role of the main catalyst of the degradation. As a result, the association of the Fenton reaction with the cupro-Fenton reaction leads to an overall improvement of the efficiency of the mineralization of phenol.
