The photochemical processes used in degradation of SDZ were UV and UV/H2O2. In the experiments hydrogen peroxide was applied at different concentrations: 10 mg/dm3 (2.94*10-4 M), 100 mg/dm3 (2.94*10-3 M), 1 g/dm3 (2.94*10-2 M) and 10 g/dm3 (2.94*10-1 M). The concentrations of SDZ during the experiment were controlled by means of HPLC. The best results of sulfadiazine degradation, the 100% removal of the compound, were achieved by photolysis using UV radiation in the presence of 100 mg H2O2/dm3 (2.94*10-3 M). The determined rate constant of sulfadiazine reaction with hydroxyl radicals kOH was equal 1.98*109 M-1s-1.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Photochemical Degradation of Sulfadiazine}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/85852/PDF/10265-Volume39-Issue3-paper_06.pdf}, doi={10.2478/aep-2013-0027}, keywords={Sulfadiazine, HPLC, Advanced oxidation processes, kOH}, }
