4-Chlorophenol (4-CP) solution was treated by dual-frequency ultrasound in conjunction with Fenton reagent, and obvious improvement in the 4-CP degradation rate was observed in this advanced oxidation process.Experimental results showed that ultrasonic intensity, saturating gas and pH value affected greatly the 4-CP removal rate. Among four different saturating gases (Ar, O2, air and N2), 4-CP degradation with Ar-saturated solution was the best. However, in the view of practical wastewater treatment, using oxygen as the saturating gas would be more economical. The addition of Fenton reagent followed the first-order kinetics and increased the 4-CP degradation rate.The 4-CP removal rate increased by around 126% within 15 min treatment. The synergetic effect of dual-frequency ultrasound with Fenton reagent on 4-CP degradation was obviously observed.
