Journal of hazardous materials 2021 Aug 15Chlorophenols (CPs) are toxic contaminants that tend to accumulate in textile dyeing sludge and pose a threat to the environment through the disposal process. To comprehensively evaluate CPs in sludge, the characteristics and risks of CPs from five textile dyeing plants (TDPs) were investigated in this study. The total concentration of 19 CPs (Σ19 CPs) varied from 170.90 to 6290.30 ng g-1 dry weight (dw), among which high-chlorine phenols accounted for the greatest proportion. The ecological screening level (ESL) of CPs was used to judge their pollution levels, while the risk quotient (RQ) value and dioxin conversion rate were used to analyze their potential risk. The results indicated that CPs may pose a moderate to high risk to the environment. The Fenton process was used to condition the hazardous sludge, and a higher content of CPs was found after conditioning. A lower rate of CP increase was achieved with a reagent dose of 180 mmol/L, H2O2:Fe2+ = 1:1, pH of 3-4 and reaction time of 30 min. In summary, the work helps to address the general knowledge gap in the textile dyeing industry and provides a reference for further research. Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier B.V.
